That’s my coworker. I hate him. He keeps talking about his dreams, chewing my ear off about it all day. Just focus on your job, you’re selling shoes.

I love him. Won't let selling dumbass shoes to pad the pocket of rich bastard(s) he'll probably never even meet become his whole life. An admirable quality, imo.

Why is he thinking about Ukraine

[–] Bonesince1997@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

"Wheatfield with Crows", 1890. His last painting.

It’s called humor, look it up.

Sans the crows, that’s exactly what the Ukraine flag is said to resemble.

This is a picture from Kherson Oblast, Ukraine, found on the Wikipedia page on the Flag of Ukraine. I know it likely wasn’t what he used for inspiration since wheat fields and blue skies aren’t exclusive to the Ukraine, but I thought it was funny.
