I agree with you fren, and I think it’s good that we keep a healthy skepticism about everything we’re told. I admit the tweet seemed a bit contrived to me too … it might be the truth, it might be an exaggeration, it might be someone larping. We’ll eventually find out.

I have a Ukrainian co-worker, early 30s, very much military age. I speak with him once or twice a week on Zoom. He reports semi-frequent air raid sirens, and sometimes explosions off in the distance, but he says otherwise his life goes on as normal. Still walks his dog, still goes out with friends, still takes vacations.
