    I know this is a heavy situation and all, but I still found this photo funny.

    Seems to be some civilian training:

    Civilian women hold weapons as they take part in a military training given by a former Ukrainian serviceman (C-L) at a civic centre at an unspecified location in the Kharkiv region on September 13, 2024, amid the Russian invasion in Ukraine.

    Someone needs to teach grandma how to handle that weapon.

      Dude, she’s just blonde, homegirl doesn’t even have wrinkles yet. I’d guess she’s late 20’s early 30s. If that’s grandma age to you, it says more about your hometown than it does about her.

          You are aware that there were an almost global trend in 2024 of dying your hair grey, even for young women, right?

            I actually was not. But I dig some older women with silver hair. However, the woman in this photo is almost baby faced (no offense at all intended). Grandma commentary is odd.

                That hit a few years ago here, starting not with grey, but with highly desaturated green, pink or purple. It’s what I call the Drowned Mermaid look. It then desaturated more, to silver or even white. It doesn’t look good on anyone.

                I don’t know what to tell you. I’ve never seen this trend where I live.

      I don’t know if it’s just the Kalashnikov or what, but I’m kind of into this grandma.
