And does it really matter considering Ukrainian doesn’t even have a definite article? The short answer: yes. The long(ish) answer, from here:

The use of “the Ukraine” stirs up intense passion among Ukrainians, in fact. Some argue that the systematic use of “the Ukraine,” especially before its independence from the U.S.S.R., was used by English-language authors and journalists to subjugate the people and nation of Ukraine by demoting it to a mere region, a mere feature of the larger U.S.S.R.

A similar issue has raised hackles in the Ukrainian language itself. The use of the preposition na ”on,” before “Ukraine,” has been scrapped for v ”in,” within Ukraine. According to this site, the Ukrainian government requested the change in 1993. Russian prescriptivists, quoted on the same site, continue to demand na, based on “tradition”:

[They say] “Literary norms cannot change overnight because of any political process.”

Some have pointed out that the style guides of many newspapers and magazines, including The Economist, have explicitly required the use of “Ukraine” rather than “the Ukraine” after its independence. (I don’t have a copy of these style guides, so I can’t confirm, but there are secondary sources online which mention the shift.)

There is a Russian version of the Golden Girls.

THERE IS A RUSSIAN VERSION OF THE GOLDEN GIRLS.

However, the only episode of it I have been able to find on the internet seems to be about the Russian equivalent of Dorothy being wrongly arrested. Welcome to Russia.

Excuse me while I crave grilled asparagus for the rest of my life.

Hoss Jaeger - Hekate [download link]

I accidentally wrote a folk song about Hekate if she was worshipped in Appalachia. This is the first time I’ve ever recorded all my own percussion and it didn’t end up sucking.
