@darklukee @BombOmOm You could check out @ragnarbjartur over here on Mastodon, he posts daily updates of this stuff. Some fantastic visualisation work in his data dashboard, tracking daily russian losses, rolling averages, etc for multiple categories. He’s doing incredible work, well worth following if you’re interested in visualisation of these figures.
@I_Like_Books @picard@lemmy.blahaj.zone Thank you for checking.
@dana @picard@lemmy.blahaj.zone I read elsewhere (like this article in the Guardian: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/oct/28/chef-ievgen-klopotenko-putting-ukrainian-cuisine-back-on-the-map) how even Ukrainians tended to lose memory of their own culinary heritage during Soviet times, and there’s a big movement by people like Ievgen Klopotenko (https://klopotenko.com/en) to reintroduce stuff that was lost back into their culture (he also has a book coming out in English later this year which I’m really looking forward to!).
@dana @picard@lemmy.blahaj.zone Sorry, it did not boost your reply to me.
I agree - Summer Kitchens is excellent. I really want to try to write a review some time. It was quite a revelation to me, Ukrainian cuisine - like, it really should be considered one of the top world cuisines. And the fact that not only is it not - but that almost nobody would even think there is such a thing in the first place - probably says quite a lot about the colonial silencing of the Ukrainian culture.
@Moxvallix likewise!
