Skimm'This; "Gimmie Shelter: Refugees in Europe, Inflation, Headline Stress Disorder
The State of Ukraine
Russia has reportedly made advances however they have not been able to take the Capital
Many Ukrainians have been forced into evacuating their country to neighboring countries
Likely the Now refugee Ukrainians will have to leave everything they own behind.
Even once they get to the border many families have to wait upwards to three days before they can even cross the border.
Luckily some people have been kind enough to give these refugees resources they need to survive.
This may be the beginning of the worse Refugee Crisis in European history
The Financial burden of the war on Russia
The west is punishing Russia by trying to isolate it economically
They are doing this in ways such as
Kicking the Russia out of swift. This locks most of their banks out of transferring money from other banks
The Russian Ruble has tanked because Russia has been blocked from exchanging the Ruble for most other foreign currencies.
Also their is a blanket ban on exporting technology. This heavily harms Russia as the country gains a lot from this field.
Sports and Business are also cutting of interactions with Russia
Fifa has banned Russia from all competitions
Russia Vodka has been banned in multiple states
This won't just affect Russia however
Energy Prices have already gone up in America
This will lead to an increase in prices overall
Some want a ban on Russian Oil.
This would be the most damaging but not just to Russia.

Discrimination when it comes to refugees
Despite the fact that many Middle Eastern and African countries have also long had many problems when it comes to refugees many countries in Europe have had a very negative response to their problems until Ukraine
Even when it comes to Ukrainians, Ukrainians that aren't white are usually treated much worse in comparison to white Ukrainians.
While Europeans shouldn't be criticized for how they treat the Ukrainians the bias and discrimination the Europeans show toward Middle Eastern and African countries should still be called out.
Baseball has been cancelled
Well the first few seasons of it

High stress and the Anxiety of our modern world
Many people can relate to a growing lack of empathy because of the situations the world has been going through
How can we help with this?
Avoid doom scrolling. Which is the concept of scrolling the internet for bad news
This can be done by limiting our consumption of the internet through a social media detox
Be aware of how you feel while reading something
Talking about what you're reading or listening too can help you feel more connected and feel better about the situation
We can help the situations around the world
This can be done by
Supporting Ukranian buisness
Donating money to organazations that help Ukraine
Going to peace protests is also a good way to help.
