I'm being deployed to the frontlines

Earlier this week I was locked out of Twitter for having a banner image that was labeled either violent or pornographic.

Here is the questionable image:

Yes, Twitter locked me out of my account for having an image of the Ukrainian flag up.

Until I delete this symbol of freedom, I’ll continue to be suspended from the Pro-Russian platform, and for now, I’m refusing to give in, or sell out, to Putin’s apologists.

Eventually I’ll relent, and come back to Blue Bird app, however this week I’ve had significantly more on my mind.

I’m being deployed to the frontlines of Ukraine’s war for liberty and liberation, where I’ll serve as a senior combat medic at an eastern axis point.

My newest column from Resolute Square, titled “The Last Death,” goes deeper into what the week was like leading up to my unit transfer and I reccomend you read it if you have a moment.

For security reasons, all I’ll say about my new posting is that I’m still in ZSU, I’m no longer with the Crimean Tatars, and that I was asked to join this company due to a lack of available medics.

I already have permission to make some content from the front and to continue to be active on social media, so I hope each and everyone adopt us as your own as you follow our work along the eastern front.

Please know the request that was made of me is an amazing honor and it is truly my privilege to serve whereever Ukraine needs me.

Sarah - you’ve inspired me so much over the long year of this war. I live in the Nevada desert, which I know you’re familiar with. I grieve for the utterly senseless death and suffering caused by this horrible war. You’re a talented writer and a soulful, brave person. Please be safe. People care about you. Thank you for fighting for & beside the Ukrainians. You make us proud. Peace & love.
