Day 1129
Down with the sickness

Wait for it. The couple on the right was grooving to the timeless classic Upside Down by Diana Ross as I ran by in slow motion listening to our song of the day — Burning Out by Under Earth.
This year, scene kids with bicycles tripping on datura wearing compression pants have pushed adherents up the river to the Nord Division FCK Famous mural near Kyiv Metro Bridge.
On the Ukraine jacket, lots more death and destruction.
Obvi the imaginary truce Team USA is talking about is not holding. The above video was taken in Kherson yesterday after Russia shelled a residential neighborhood, killing three and wounding dozens. Same in Kharkiv and Dnipro.
