🥀🥀🥀

I’ll say this once and for all: you have no right to accuse me of “russophobia” without ever being in my skin… or in my country, in my city.

I don’t publicly insult or humiliate anyone on social media. The only thing I ask is not to post my content on Russian platforms (like VKontakte, Boosty, etc). This request is constantly ignored — and on Boosty, they even sell my own mods.

This is my choice, and it’s completely justified. Don’t think so? You’re welcome to visit my Dnipro, Nikopol, or Kharkiv. We’ll sit cozily in the hallway at night, praying that the missile flies past my house. And in the morning, as if nothing happened, we’ll go to work and keep living. Then at night we’ll go back to our “survival games” — only this time it won’t be a missile, but 500 drones.
Although, you know… it can happen right in the middle of the day too, in the city center, where lots of people gather.

And tell me — what kind of attitude am I supposed to have toward my “neighbors”? Do you think they care? They don’t even call this war a war. They pretend nothing’s happening.

Games and creativity outside of politics. How is that even possible?
Any content is a reflection of the worldview of the person who creates it. And when someone says, “it’s just a game, don’t mix it with politics,” — they’re simply removing their own responsibility.

I won’t change my opinion. If you think differently — just unfollow. Don’t waste your time insulting me. Either way, it doesn’t bother me — it only makes me laugh at how blind the world can be.

This post reflects only my personal thoughts and experiences. I’m not encouraging or calling anyone to any actions — just sharing my own perspective.

I understand your feelings, and I'm sorry about this. However, not all Russians support the current situation in the country. Many of my friends are from Ukraine, but we still maintain communication with them. I'm just saying, you shouldn't hate all Russians just because they're from Russia. No one likes what's happening right now, but there's nothing we can do about it. I hope everything works out for you.

I don’t waste my emotional energy on hatred. I just don’t want to see myself on Russian platforms where people who support the war are present. That’s all. Any normal person, regardless of nationality, would understand this, but I keep getting dragged back into that space that feels dirty to me. And I don’t know what else to say to make it clear.

Thank you for your understanding, unfortunately my family and I are not completely safe, because this can only be fixed by moving, but we believe in the best 🫶🏻

I’m so sorry that this is a thing you have to process on top of it. Every day I pray and hope peace comes your way. I live in Denmark 🇩🇰 and have through my kids school met mothers and kids from Ukraine 🇺🇦 hoping to be reunited with their fathers and husbands sometime, now for years. ❤️

Thank you! I also believe that peaceful times will come as soon as possible, so that thousands of families can be reunited and no longer have to lose their loved ones...

hi, so sorry if it seemed like I was trying to offend you—I was replying to an earlier comment (from luvluvpands on the nap override animations) that was accusing you of russaphobia and saying stupid things,, in no way was I trying to tell you to be quiet or anything similar :-(

Hi! Oh, sorry then — I guess that person must’ve deleted their comment, and I only saw yours 😅 Anyway, I’m glad it gave me a chance to express my opinion haha I’ll delete the cover screenshot then ❤️

Thank you for speaking up. Most people live in complete denial. Art is political xx

v
vellesa · October 15, 2025

Exactly! Art isn’t something separate from the person; it’s a reflection of the creator, their worldview. I don’t understand how anyone could deny that, since every artist puts a part of themselves into their work 🤗

it's insane that they're talking about this in a joking tone when your policy is perfectly valid and justified (even if it wasn't, it's still what you feel comfortable with. it's your content, and as the creator you decide where you want it to be shared) i guess by definition i'm "russophobic" as well and i'm not even related to russia nor ukraine, so i can't even imagine how someone like you who is directly affected by it might feel stay safe out there, no one should have to deal with what you are rn

Thank you for your opinion! It’s crazy to me too that we still have to explain such things to people nowadays 🥀

Thank you, I’m fine! After all these years, I’ve gotten used to it. I just wanted to explain my perspective separately 🫶🏻
