Today our meeting got interrupted by an air raid alarm. One of our Ukrainian colleagues had to seek shelter mid-meeting. It turned out to be only a drone. The madness of trying to do your job in the middle of a war. It is weird.

Is ENworld as a site/business making any donations toward Ukraine humanitarian aid?

Today, I've seen the Ukrainian movie Reflection. It was shot before the current events, but even though it is devoid of historical or political commentary, it gives an idea of the situation in the so-called separatist republics.

WARNING: The first part of the movie is very strong and can be hard to watch: there are explicit torture scenes.

P.S.
It is my understanding that the director, Valentyn Vasyanovych, is currently fighting with the Ukrainian army.

Reaper Miniatures has just announced that they'll be putting out a 2022 Ukrainian Relief metal miniature later this month, which is now available for pre-order. It's sculpted by Jason Weibe.
$7.50 of the $9.99 cost will be going to UNICEF.
Since the nightingale is the national bird of the Ukraine, the miniature is going to be an anthropomorphic nightingale bard with a lute.
I'll be buying at least two or three of them.

Wouldn't donating direct be a better idea?

Any company is gonna take a cut even if it's at cost.

I expect the opposite - that which they spend in support of the charity is effectively a tax deduction.

So, ABC showed actual pictures of protesters inside Moscow. This is, evidently, why Mr. Putin is blacklisting foreign media outlets; He thinks they are poisoning the minds of the youth with Western ideals and fake news. lol
