thread, we were discussing the middle finger salute, and how many of us use it. I was reminded of an old cold war (told you it was old !) bit about holdiing up your hand, palm facing you. The explanation was that it was the ruzzian eagle, five times more powerful than the American bird (remember, cold war!) Then I was thinking about Ukraine's symbol, the Trident. And about how magats and t####humpers are basically putin lovers, so it is rather fitting. Just the middle three fingers straight up, facing out, slightly separated. (the previous three-finger salute is rendered sideways, "read between the lines".. None of them will get it, but that is okay. I know what I mean.

***Interesting bit of synchronicity: A little bit ago, I went to youtube for one of the regular reports I watch on ruzzia's illegal, immoral, incredibly brutal invasion of Ukraine, Anna From Ukraine. Dr. Anna Danylchuk does a daily vlog which I find most informative. Today when I went to it, she was wearing a dark sweater with the Ukrainian Trident on the front. I felt a bit encouraged by that.
