  • This reminds me of a book called “Boerenpsalm” (Farmers psalm) by the Belgian author Felix Timmermans. It’s about a farmer whose son dies and his daughter in law, of whom he never approved, still lives with him at the farm. They gradually grow closer and get romantically involved, but the farmer can’t believe he’s that lucky, which leads to some drama (it’s been a very long time since I read the book or watched the movie). Anyway, it’s frowned upon now as it was then (the book takes place at the end of the 19th century), but also a thing of all times.

    Imo, when 2 people love each other, who are we to judge?

    To answer your question though, yes, it would be awkward. I actually can’t imagine being in that situation, to be honest.

    Fuck off. Russia considers itself at war with the democratic world. It’s long overdue the democratic world responds in the only way Russia recognizes: brute force.

    If that means active engagement from NATO or even individual nations like Poland or France, then so be it.
