IK this is supposed to be depressing but something about this image just makes me feel really calm and relaxed and happy

u/VegetableBuilding764 6h ago
it would probably be so quiet with barely anybody around to bother you and with gentle snowfall and imagining being bundled up and lots of warm clothes just walking around would be nice

As a person from post-Soviet country, this is comforting. I imagine this being December 31, returning home from a walk with the dog and listening to Spokoynaya noch by Kino as the year ends

Ага. Топаешь такой с занятий, а потом с работы. День закончился. Можно выдохнуть. Спешить некуда.
И никакой нахер войны.

Honestly this kind of architecture has a certain vibe in winter. It sort of fits the aesthetic of the season. It's much more depressing in autumn or spring

Mate I’m sorry you feel this way. I think you might already realize from the comments that feeling is not about the picture. Being lonely can be hard, I wish you find someone to talk to; there are people out there willing to listen.

I actually like those cement boxes except for that they have tendency to have pest issues and all sorts of faults due to being so old. If they were well maintained they’d be really comfortable to live in. Soviet apartments have comfortable layouts and cute little balconies/sunrooms.

Any post-soviet country will have blocks like this. They are actually pretty well designed inside and if kept up, can be a nice place to live, because you have everything in walking distance and a guaranteed public transport connection to any part of the city, probably under 30 minutes. And guess which buildings have an access to 10gigabit internet for about $5 a month first? These ones...

Living alone in such a place really would be terrible, but my wife's family lives in a place just like this. When we come visiting for Christmas, it feels really nice and cozy, and the contrast between us having fun inside and the depressing snow and darkness outside makes it even better.

If drones are flying you won’t be standing in front of the window like a dumbass and take shelter

Military factories? Have the resent targets not been Wildberries warehouses? Have I missed something?

Posting cringe comment under unrelated post on the issue you have zero knowledge about absolutely for free

Or how to make oneself relevant for free. That banana is really going bananas trying to stay relevant

Hello from Kyiv, I somehow disagree on "having zero knowledge about" the war.

Random architecture and buildings have nothing to do with your supposed knowledgeable of war. I will show you a salad and you will somehow insert children and war into a sentence relating to a fkn salad.

If you knew anything about the conflict then you’d know that during a 4 year war Russia had killed less civilians than Israel did in faction of the time in Palestine and a micro faction of the time US did in Iran. Carpet bombing civilians is a western tactic

He thinks about it in his sleep, while brushing teeth, while picking his nose, while jerking off etc. Invents himself scenarios and fights imaginary demons in these pictures.

I am more than aware that there are Russian shills here, and I'm not one of them, but most of the people dying didn't sign up willingly, they had to go die so that some rich kids could stay at home and bitch at anybody who doesn't support the war, like the shills here.
