QWERTY, ЙЦУКЕН, and Danish. The Danish one is the most idiotic. For example:
To add to that, on a map it all looks small, so you can imagine: go here, get there. But to actually “cross the front in the opposite direction into Donetsk region” they would need to cover about 300 km - quick, unprotected and without any logistical support, or slow but sure, but this is what they might plan anyway. They will probably try to widen the gap and dismantle the border defences

Oh, you just said “we”, and it’s degoratory to pluralsexuals!
I see it more as anti-muslim. To be racist, the agenda should be about supremacy of one “kind” of people over another, and here we see a cultural/religion clash.
They were better, but what do youmean by “Stalin luxury”? Again, I not speaking of several unique buildings in Moscow, SPb, etc. I’m speaking of thousands buildings in many many cities, buildings of a period.
Let’s take my family or people I know as an example:
the only person remotely “high ranked” was my grandfather, an engineer of a shipbuilding bureau. He and my father’s family got a four-room apartment in one of those 1000s of buildings. Same as many other engineers, he wasn’t super high ranked.
at the same time, my grandma’s sister got a same-type apartment, before my grandma even knew my grandpa. Guess what profession she was? A nurse! Does that sound like Stalin-level?
My classmate was one of four kids, so they got apartment in stalinka as a part of a social quota for families like that.
What do you say, is my family special? We don’t have wikipedia pages, and we weren’t anything special in financial terms.
Are you even from USSR/Russia, or you just read about it?
I bought a lot of really nice stuff from both places (and some shitty stuff, but most of the time because I “saved” some time by not reading reviews), and they’re basically same, Temu is just Aliexpress, but little bit more expensive and with warehouses in EU. So I just pay a bit more if I need stuff in a few days, not in few weeks.
In many cases, temu stuff is probably just Ali stuff from resellers.
Anyway, no idea how you find temu and Ali any different
There’s a shitton of nice buildings, I’m not telling about Moscow towers only
If you’re tall, then yes, it won’t be pleasurable as well. Especially sad because houses of earlier Stalin period were awesome. It doesn’t make Stalin any better, and he wasn’t solving the problem of overpopulation by building houses (sad joke), but the houses from tgat period are well built, have high ceilings, thick walls, sometimes nice things like second entrances and garbage chutes, etc. This was connected with the industrial and economical boom after the war (so, generally the same stuff that happened in the us, only in the us people got a bigger piece of pie).
I converted the heights for you:
Oh yes, I’ve heard of (but haven’t experienced myself) a low quality of a “standard” us house, but personally I really value the amount of space over many things. When the covid started, we rented a shitty thin-walled summerhouse to get out of the 5M city and keep some freedom of movement. And it was so awesome I didn’t care how much firewood we burned, or how I could hear the kids through 2 walls. Because I could step out of the door and still stay within “my territory”, my place. And in most of small apartments, not just the soviet ones, you feel trapped in those 2 or 3 concrete boxes you call home.
And if you build a house for yourself, you have a chance to make use of all the modern technologies, and some things are not that much more expensive - I know because I did plan to do it, and I even have a giant excel file with calculations and choices made. Never happened because we moved to another country.
There was an architect, Le Corbusier. He was a socialist, so his projects of future cities involved a lot of public spaces where people spend their free and working time, while a person’s home was just a small area for sleeping and eating breakfast. The Soviets took the idea of small personal homes, and dropped the “nice public areas” part.
Speaking of Le Corbusier, as his main (I know, that’s subjective) achievement was a technical approach to ergonomics - all sizes in his projects were based on human sizes and proportions. Meaning that a height of a ceiling is a height of an average adult man raising his hands, + some space. It worked, and it’s cost-effective, but you really like some extra space, and have more than 3 sq.m. toilet.
Well, In German it’s also grammatically correct
Same in Russian - it’s something like “wehwehweh”
I don’t agree with that person, but you’re criticizing said person for having opinions and writing about it. They don’t owe you writing less, writing left-wing propaganda, or reducing their interest in politics.
You could write “you’re an asshole!” and you would be right, but don’t take away a person’s right to comment stuff on the internet.
We (30-40yo guys) just played soccer, and there were too few of us. So we invited some kids who were hanging around on the fields. Well, fuck…
(The ball flies away)
Kid: I’ll bring it back! (sprints after the ball like I’m not sprinting during the attack, then proceeds to run like that for the next hour)
We were only better like a pickup truck is better when it collides with a motorcycle
Mmm tasty garlic bread
Edit: you failed at shitposting, the post is useful and entertaining
39 here, same shit. I’ll roll right into the “how do you do, fellow kids” meme
Yeah, automakers pose a threat to automakers!
My guess is that after he posted the video, a pretty (I dunno by what exact standards, but she does look good in my opinion) girl contacted him:
The left half of the picture - no idea, but it looks like some movie reference related to overcoming shit and shit
