yeah, seagal loves putin, besties forever
see them carve it out in a heart on a tree
better still on warm bodies
& i’m sure their mutual wankery
is the one true path to enlightenment
why would they live to serve
when they can shirk all that’s deserved
shitting themselves in a shared hole
of their own making, always taking
we all know how this story goes
putin hates zelenskyy, enemies forever
see him carve it out on a nuclear tease
better still on still bodies
i’m sure his religion of geography
is the one true path to dominance
they both have skin in the game
a bit more so than you & me
yet all we can do is sit & argue
does might make right, peace less so
we all know how this story goes
yeah, trump loves trump, cahoots forever
see him carve it out on democracy
better still on nubile bodies
& i’m sure his lies & weaselry
is the one true path to supremacy
still dodging the arm of law
all we can do is cheer or boo him
& putin plays trump like a fiddle
as both try to outstrongman seagal
we all know how this fucking story goes

Nicely savage and cynical observation. Strong men appeal to the thick-skulled.

Ain’t that the truth. Strongmen are absolutely the worst kind of people to be allowed to have that kind of power.

It’s maddening but also frightening!
Trump is telling his “followers” that they won’t need to vote in 4 years and to get out and vote for the last time. Shouldn’t this ring alarm bells for everyone?
I’m back in Lviv volunteering and this war feels as though it will never end. Locals are very tired and people can only take so much, but after 10 years and 2 years of more onslaught, not sure how this will end.

It’s deeply frightening. Trump is a cancer on democracy. That much is so plainly obvious that it beggars belief that so many don’t see it. Also, if he gets back in, he will just hand Ukraine over to Putin on a silver platter. That is a truly chilling thought.
I worry every day about losing Tati, and if that’s how I’m feeling then I can only imagine how her and her family (and indeed all Ukrainians) must be feeling. And you’re right about this war already having dragged on so long. I’m even beginning to wonder if it will end. It surely must. And Ukraine surely must prevail. It has to. I hope you stay safe while volunteering over there. Your efforts are so very much appreciated. Truly!
