  • I dont quite remember what are people like. I remember my high school camarades were fine I guess. Like everywhere, many assholes, many nice people. I believe it is fair to say that majority doesn’t openly support LGBT, but there are (were?) a famous dude making music, who was openly homosexual; I don’t know what happened to him (“боря моисеев”). (Oh just checked, he died in 2022). I don’t think many people actually are actively anti LGBT, they just happen to support whatever the television is telling them.

    I would say totally say Russians aren’t that friendly as Americans lol. I visited US multiple times and was shocked how easy it is for basically strangers to start a conversation in US. I don’t live in US, I live in France for almost 20 years now. I totally prefer Europe over US.

    I tend to not meet other Russian immigrants because I am very anti war and I think anyone who supports pootin is a moron. However, recently I went to a meeting group among other fellow immigrants who are also against war. And they seemed friendly enough.

    It is hard to give modern music recommendations, but among the classics are “Виктор Цой”, “ДДТ”, “Алла Пугачева”. I don’t know what cool kids are listening to nowadays, maybe “Гуф”, or “Баста”. Виктор Цой was extremely popular and almost a national hero. I still love him and listen regularly. “ДДТ Вороны” has to be the most profoundly depressing song I know, it’s impossible to listen without tears












  • Watched Warfare yesterday. Agreed, very down to earth, and very unlike Hollywood. It was a good movie. I didn’t understand wtf was even their mission, it looked like they chosen a random house and made that their strongpoint lol

    Maybe i missed the plot, not a native English speaker

    Kinda gore indeed, my gf appeared behind me exactly when screen was all shredded legs, by her look she was wondering if i am alright
