Log 13 [01.09.2025] Once again I am doing this one giant blog post instead of a few small ones In late August I was able to do a lil' trip to my ucle's house in one of the villages near Moscow, it was quite great. I travelled together with Basya and he wasn't quite fond ofmy uncle's angry 4 year old striped cat - Vasya. Overall I had a great week there, my aunt gave me lots and lots of tasty foods and stuff. The walking with Basya stuff I planned earlier didn't work out at all, he's so slippery that no matter how tight the leash was tied to him he slipped through! Recently I've decided to switch from my smartphone to several devices instead: a Philips 160 cellphone, an mp3 nugget from some stupidly named chinese company and an old 16 megapixel digital camera. I initially thought of this for resisting the phone ban in schools(only the cellphone will be banned, the nugget and the camera are allowed) and in case we are going to be forced to download that stupid spyware messenger the government made for even further destroying our rights. So far this change also made me less distracted while doing literally any task, I highly recommend doing this! Our class has got a new guy in it! Again! This time, the guy seems realllly shy and he does kinda remind me of my older self, at least the face (NOT IN A WIERD WAY). And now for the worst part of what's happened in August - my grandma died. this is the reason i didn't want to make a blogpost for a while, i knew i had to talk about this, and without it i wouldn't be telling the full story. RIght after I arrived home from uncle's mom found out grandma died. I thought: "How? I thought things were going alright!" and well they weren't at all. the tumor they removed from her lungs wasn't all the job they needed to do, a recovery was needed after the surgery. and to have enough oxygen for her body they needed to put pressure on the heart and thats where evrything went wrong. grandpa and mom were along most of the recovery (at the last stages they werent allowed into the hospital), grandpa in his usual manner ruined some things like cutting oxygen to her one day but i dont think he was at fault for her death. About grandpa, he is devastated and depressed, as one would be in this situation. He also basically dooesn't know what to do in his life without her. And just becasue I'm writing this so carelessly and badly doesn't mean I don't feel anything about this. She was with me during my whole life up to that point god damn it. I don't want to write anything more right now. See you later. Log 12 [21.07.2025] A bunch of things happened recently, and I think it's a good idea to talk about them in a single big post. July 3rd - My birthday! Combined I got 100 dollars from my parents and a good 720p webcam. Plus, I now have my own credit card to waste money with! I switched from windows 10 to Linux Mint, because the slowness just got unbearable, plus windows wouldn't let me open .dll files, so I couldn't pirate software. What a hell of an experience this switch is. Linux has potential, it is very resource-light and doesn't take up too much space on my hard drive. Problem is, it is VERY hard to understand Terminal - through which you have to do most of the complicated stuff. If Linux had a GUI for every single thing Terminal can do, so that you wouldn't have to learn a million commands just to play games on Steam, then it would be the PERFECT OS. Oh and, yes, this means my cool video essay I've been working on will probably never be done. Oh well. My grandma got cancer recently, we were all so worried she wouldn't make it, but with the use of a LOT of money we (i think) were able to afford a surgery for her, and she is doing well! The healthcare in this country is so shit, nobody expects a person to live when they get cancer. Like, the doctors were practically saying "she doesn't have much time left anyway, she's old".What a fucking shithole. About Basya. We found out that he was quite sick all along, and now he is a healthy little silly scaredy boy. We're also going to try to have walks with him, leash, collar and everything! Had the first swim of the summer today, it was pitiful. We went to the usual manmade pond at the end of town and the water was CHILLING cold. On the way back, I saw a guy standing in the bushes naked and jerking off. I did NOT take a photo, because that woudld be nasty. So things are generally pretty decent right now, I hope I'll get some good news soon. Log 11 [28.06.2025] Tried Sriracha sauce today. It's supposed to be this super spicy stuff that just fries your tongue dry instantly from what I've heard, but in reality it's just... average? Idk, it doesn't feel much more spicy than the stuff they put into the spicy burger king whoppers. It's still a good sauce for chicken and for some other foods, adds a certain "smell" to it, yk? Log 10 [15.06.2025] It's day 1208 since the start of the war. I really, really want to get out of here as soon as possible, but making a long-term plan probably wouldn't work, in 3 or so years a lot of things can change, like if a certain counrty I wanted to escape to wouldn't accept russian passports anymore. Every time I go outside every single thing reminds me of my desire to escape. No music or book or video on my phone can distract me from these thoughts, it's horrible. Every day drones bomb different places in the city like the oil processing plant, but I live far away from those places, so I'm fine. I'm worried for some of my classmates that live there. It honestly kind of amazes me how people don't know the truth about what's happening after so much time has passed. I knew since 2020 that things were wrong and nobody believed me, but now one of my friends slowly starts to get it, even though it feels like the progress restarts every time we meet. He at least knows that the government can do horrible things to citizens without much reasons or lie with no explanations why. Good night everybody and good luck out there. Things will only get better if we keep trying Log 9 [12.06.2025] Still haven't forgotten about this website! Summer holidays are going on pretty boring so far. THe video I was talking about previously is still in the making, I have to get a new webcam and some cable adapters. Plus, I'll have to make a tripod out of wood or buy one to put the camera on it. Good news are - I can capture footage of my Famicom using a TV capture card, which I have to plug in to my boxy old TV with diabetes. I can finally make videos about my Famicom games! Log 8 [19.05.2025] Started working on a new video on YouTube. In this one, I'll do a review of a PC game on CD-ROM, Angry Video Game Nerd style, although I'm not angry like him :) (at least for now). Log 7 [14.05.2025] The weather improved lately... sort of. The sun has finally come out from the clouds, but it's still not as warm as it should be by now. Maybe in July it'll be warmer On the negative side of things,there's rain. Lots of it. Lots of cold and strong rains and storms and strong winds and whatnot. We even had to get out our clothes, which we reserved for Autumn, back from the closet Log 6 [08.05.2025] Tomorrow is May 9th, the day when Germany was defeated in World War II. Today, I want to take some time to remember what happened there from 1939 to 1945(yes, my wording may be wierd, but I'm still learing English). Some countries or people say that their country had more to do with the victory on that day, some say their country had suffered more and done more for the victory. But that doesn't matter. The victory on that day was achieved by a group effort of many countries, who had given all they could for the cause. And saying that one's country has done more than the others or suffered more than the others isn't right - you're beign ignorant of the efforts of millions of other people! Such as with my country, who doesn't even care about what happened before 1941 and talks only about their efforts and their difficulties Many other countries do that as it seems too, don't get me wrong. All I wanna say is - it was a group effort, and EVERYONE should know that and remember that. btw I'm postimg this today because tomorrow the internet will be as slow as snails, 'cause the governmnet is afraid of bombings of the Parade on the Red Square tomorrow (like that can happen). Log 5 [07.05.2025] Got an A on Biology today. Every Biology class our homework is to learn all the material from the lesson and retell it to the teacher in short form during the next class. Today, I finally succeeded in doing just that! For some reason, it takes me a looong time to remember the material (more than 3 hours for like 3-4 pages of material!) and only now I had enough time to learn it all perfectly. Even while retelling I'm struggling: finding the right words and terminology in my memory is difficult, even though I know the defenitions and etc. This is a "Not diagnosed, but I'm pretty sure" moment. Log 4 [03.05.2025] Tried finishing Super Mario Bros 2 on NES today...again. This game's pretty good but definetely has flaws: 1. Glitches! Lotsa' glitches! I encountered many glitches during my runs, like: 1. Coins not appearing in Sub-space, weird hitboxes and the game crashing for some reason. 2. World 4-1, 4-2, 4-3, 5-1 , 7-1 and 7-2. These worlds are wayy too hard. 4-1, 4-2, 4-3 have bullshit ice physcs which literally nobody likes as well as a bullshit enemy to go with them - Puffles. 5-1 has bullshit platforming that'll definetely cost you a few lives. The entirety of world 7 has dickish enemy placement, especically 7-2 with the tons of Sparks, Bob-ombs and others I got so sick of this game's bullshit that I just threw the cartridge out my window. Hope it landed on some guy's head. Log 3 [30.04.2025] Got a B on an Algebra test as well as an A in Chemistry. My answer deserved a B, but our kind techer gave me an additional point for courage, god bless her. I would've gotten an A without any additional points, if my brain weren't very slow when doing... anything, actually. The weather still hasn't gone better, and it probably won't for another few days. We had quite the strong rain today and almost couldn't see the sun all day because of the thick dark clouds. Log 2 [29.04.2025] Today was...fine, i guess. The physics test was pretty hard, there were some questions about stuff that our teacher didn't even teach us. The laboratory test thing was kinda wierd: the questions had strange and cryptic wording, so it was hard to even understand what you needed to do. On the 26-27th of April our class was supposed to take part in an online region-wide English competition, since if you won you would get additional points when getting into a university/college. Only like 3 people actually managed to even get into the website that the competition ran on lol. Thankfully, I managed to take part on time and got 80/80 points as well as an A from our English teacher. The weather today, as well as yesterday is kinda crap: it's April, and we still got cold ass weather and no heating anymore(it gets turned off in 15th of April or so), we have really strong cold winds coming from the north and in the evening yesterday it was even snowing! Why can't the weather in our town just be normal and stable for once in a while?! Log 1 [28.04.2025] Damn, I'm so tired from school, man! Feels like it's never gonna end, even though summer break is like a month away. I still have time to play video games though. Tomorrow we have a major Physics test that's going to determine my grade and I'm scared stiff! There's so many things to remember for that test, and my tiny smooth brain probably can't remember all of 'em.
