Winter is Coming 🇺🇦 Kyiv, Ukraine

I've been back in Kyiv for a bit over a week now and the snow has started to fall. It was my first time visiting maidan square since being back, and things look very different.

Johnny, don't throw away the big empty bottles. When there is water, fill them up and put them somewhere, for example, on the balcony. Let them stand, just in case. Next time there will be water at least for the toilet and to wash the dishes. And you can buy water to drink.

[@CjrRbt]

Ukrainians are related to Russians, they also speak Russian! Not to mention that the resources on that territory are not used for their well-being, but are used for the benefit of those in the West. There is nothing to defend! Do you want peace? Then it's simple: Don't fight! You have nothing to fight for! The media washes people brains and makes them hate each other!

That's what the politicians/media does, with all their propaganda. Like "It's the Russians' fault," etc. And the same thing happens in the east, like "It's the fault of the Americans, of the West," and so on. They make people hate each other! We need to wake up! They did the same with the plan-demic, and they will do the same with any other scheduled crisis, such as the devaluation of money (that paper printed at the behest of some 'tricksters') or the food crisis (which while we are made to hate neighbors, food is destroyed around the world).

A lot of ways to help fight the Russians, huh Johnny?

The solution is to NOT go and fight for governments, not to accept masks, injections, or any other nonsense, and when more people wake up, you even refuse to pay them taxes - which are nothing more than protection fees given to the mafia but under a masked form!

I like the variety change of seasons and winter gives you. I more often than not get depressed during summer, rather than winter which is weird. But all seasons have their charm. Regarding water. I would recommend everyone to own a water filter. In case water runs out and you have to collect from a dodgy source. For example a Sawyer Squeeze.

[@CjrRbt]

99% OF INTUBATES PATIENTS DIED! It's never been about health or a cure...its about big pharma and hospitals scheming for profit. If a hospital admits a COVID-19 patient, they get paid $13k. If that COVID-19 patient goes on a ventilator, the hospital gets paid $39k---three times as much. While HCQ is better known, has fewer side-effects, and costs about $20 a dose for out-patients, Remdesivir is a therapeutic course that costs $2,340/patient that has been proven to cause liver damage. Being intravenous, remdesivir requires expensive hospital care (hospital receives an addl $13k from Medicare.) There have been many accounts of hospitals placing non covid patients on Covid Floors, increasing exposure and the hospital's chance of cashing in more. This is why some hospitals refuse to allow family in. It's not a "safety" protocol. They don't want patient advocates.

I grew up in New Hampshire. Get used to your environment/skies going from grey(Late November), to greyer(Early January), to greyest(February)! It gets dark and sometimes even a bit depressing given that you are stuck inside a bunch of the time due to the relentless cold and the amount of effort it takes just to go out and complete simple tasks. So I would suggest looking into additional ways to be positive when possible because I think I speak for everyone when I say, "We prefer happy-go-lucky Johnny FD, being a positive force, giving back when he can, trying to make this world just a bit more light feeling then news agencies tend to make it out to be. Trust me man, between the home alone, dark days(due to overcast sky's and nights) playing CoD and wishing the Russians you take out in the game were the real ones invading a country you hold dear to your heart for whatever reason that you've never really elaborated on and just being stressed after hearing repeated incoming fire sirens/all that jazz. The next few months don't look very easy man, but another thing about growing up in a cold S.O.B. area with not always so nice people is that it WITHOUT A DOUBT it adds and cements hardy characteristics within such an individual. If you need any further reference on that, feel free to talk to some additional Ukrainian soldiers; they haaaaaard as faaaahhhk!! :)

The structures of Governments are like those of corporations. It offers services to customers (aka. people), in exchange for money (aka. taxes). So, the employees of the corrupt corporation called government don't work for people, only for themselves in the pursue of bigger and bigger profit at the expense of people well-being. They don't serve people, they see people as competitors/sources of income. We the people, are sovereign beings, if a corporation wants to sell us war, we have the right to refuse it. Don't take any injection governments/media promote, don't go to fight in a war for these corrupts governments corporation, nor go and defend them. People are manipulated to hate and kill each other.

While it is true that you can flush your waste down the toilet with a bucket of water when the system isn't working, there is a serious downside to that which you may not be aware of. Sewage systems rely on a series of pumps and lift stations to keep it moving to the sewage treatment plants. When the entire system is shut down the waste you flush is going to come out of the toilets, sinks, showers and floor drains of the people on lower ground. You very well may be flushing your toilet directly into someone else's home.

[@JohnnyFD]

Wow really? Is that true? That's insane if so.

[@mustwereallydothis]

@@JohnnyFD I have personally cleaned up the results. If your building, street or even neighborhood is the only one affected, odds are that won't happen. If the entire city goes down though... Have you heard of composting toilets? That may be a viable option if you could somehow get everyone onboard. That's one heck of a tall order though.

[@mustwereallydothis]

@@JohnnyFD If you ever need information on how to set up and use a composting toilet, I am here for you. All you need is a bucket and something to cover the waste in. Sawdust is best but wood chips, soil or even, in a pinch, shredded paper works as well. You have to keep urine seperate or the pails become far too heavy to deal with. Urine is generally sterile and can be dumped directly onto the ground. You don't want to dump large amounts in one area though or it will create ammonia and smell terrible. There are ways to dispose of it that can actually turn it into a fertilizer. Please don't let that mad man use your bodily functions against you.

I hope you understand The importance of videos like this they are very appreciated for us living regular sheltered lives. I hope you take pride in it

[@mattp.7868]

If u have not already done it. Next time water is running again fill up all spare bottles and every time u go shopping buy an extra one. ( along with some canned foods) stay safe

[@kaijunjiang9763]

The crowds made my heart warm. Life should just return to its due position.

[@mkrzyski916]

Did city services turn the water off completely in order to fix the existing water / water pressure issues?

[@kenmay1572]

Looks like there are more shops open in Kyiv than in Moscow

[@carolwilliams8511]

Russia is a terrible country sinking into economic free fall. Deserves every bit of bad luck and misery after what the government has done to a neighbouring country.

That's the normal water pressure we have here in Dublin, Ireland :)

Are you considering becoming a citizen? How does that work?

[@pvere3246]

Trespass is a British company, thanks for helping our economy a little bit too.

Denys, one of the Ukrainian vloggers said on his last video that there was nothing special about Ukraine but it’s just not true. The resilience and bravery they have shown is remarkable and when you think how rich their culture is and how Russia has tried to destroy any trace of Ukrainian culture through the centuries, well they just amaze me. I’m guessing Johnny must see something for it to draw him back in spite of the war. Slava Ukraini!

But now,the winter is much warmer then 25 years ago

[@arktikgraywolf]

Go buy couple 30 liter jugs and drive to village and fill at public wells.

At 2 PM they will come fix your water. Count your blessings. When I used to live in an apartment, it would have been we will come in a week on Tuesday between 8 AM and 5 PM - be home all day, because we cannot figure out to plan.

[@sscheriff4849]

Careful with drinking the water as the water pressure drops. The pressure drops in the pipes can allow things to enter the system and contaminate your drinking water. I would recommend drinking bottled water as these attacks continue.

[@karinaemelie1665]

or at least boiled, simmer a little longer, cool and store in bottles or hot in a thermos...

[@TerryLawrence001]

I hope you refill the bottles with tap water and store it for dishes and washing. If the tap water is drinkable, then just always keep your water bottles full. Don't toss the bottles until they wear out.

[@biteyoueatyou9391]

Super insightful, thank you!!

[@midnighttrader2180]

What's your opinion on moving to Ukraine now?

[@kathsmith4924]

buy some string battery fairy lights they give of a lot of light

[@maorimana]

Great way to pass time gaming especially on cold winter's grab the chips dip crackers cheese and wine junk food game on 🥂🍘🍪

The most salient thought: YOU (unlike so many others) HAVE A CHOICE.

[@sherrillwhately7586]

Where I live in Arizona the water pipes frequently break. I keep a laundry room full of gallons of water in case they turn it off to fix the pipes. Plus I bring in enough for a gallon a day each week for drinking because the water quality is poor.

[@auroraborealis8703]

You can fill up your bathtub w/ water so you have water to flush the bathroom.

[@alexhartmann6379]

When I was a kid,Johnny the snowdrifts were about 1.5 meters tall...But now it is redicilous

[@Kurtlane]

I think the word you were looking for is "resourceful " Also, I remember Kiev under Soviet government, when water or electricity would suddenly disappear for a few hours. In peace time. Nobody thought it a big deal. It was part of the norm. How long did it take for you until water flowed again?

[@tadachin6536]

Standing with Ukraine from Thailand🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🙏🙏🙏💪💪💪💪

[@bonniefromwashingtonstate7808]

I like cozy

[@living-wellon-less5669]

Now that you are back in Ukraine maybe you should think about buying quantities of the stamps when they are released and sell them on Ebay and you could use the profits for your charitable work and since every stamp that is collected doesn't get used so it's money in the governments pocket! I would buy some from you, I already have 6 of the Russian warship and 6 of the tractor towing the tank stamps, I didn't know about the new ones or I would be getting them too so thanks for the heads up!

[@martyb7554]

Collect fresh snow in buckets for water
