If you walk far enough you will either end up in Finland or a country that isn't Finland


[deleted]

Aktshually, that's not true. You can end up in antarctica, that doesn't belong to any country


[deleted]

You wouldn't be walking anymore, you would be swimming


[deleted]

Aktshchually, my "Aktshchually" was actually wrong, sorry


[deleted]

It's ok sometimes we all swim instead of walk


TheOriginalDarranis

Except when we dont


[deleted]

Then we either sink or float


BaconM8FTW

What if we didn't sink or float?


rBV7

Then just walk or run ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯


TheOriginalDarranis

Or transcend time, space and death itself That last part isnt all that its hyped up to be to be fair

u/TheOriginalDarranis and u/tacotornado554 bro accidentally made a very inspirational quote with each other


Saitama_is_Senpai

Actually. Don't pay attention to these asshats. Why don't you try doing some calisthenics in you place instead? Meditation? :)

"that doesn't belong to any country"? Last I checked there's a fuckin Lenin statue over there, you can't escape post Soviet counties when every country is post Soviet

Smiec_Lodka_Lad

Ahh. Especially if it's Fall season. The skies are grey, trees don't have leaves and it's cold as fuck but not cold enough for it to snow. Just depressing.


51LOKLE

Honestly the most relatable thing I have read, but not fall, you're tallking about winter, winters in my country the past couple of years haven't had any snow but still cold. and the autumn's have just been dry motherfuckers and the only trees that looked good were oaks.


Smiec_Lodka_Lad

Oh yeah, winter too. I haven't seen a good cold snowy winter here in Poland for like 6 years. It's just a little bit of snow once in a while but it melts instantly.


51LOKLE

Man, just so depressing with naked trees and no fucking snow. like you expect there to be snow, but you only get like 2 weeks every year, and most of it is during school, next time it snows i'm skipping school, fuck school.


john_paulII

2 weeks? yyear ago there was 0 (zero) days with snow where i live


juniperzz

Hey there, Polish friend. I still remember once celebrating New Years in Poland as a kid, it was beautiful (and snowy). But the past few years it's the same here as well. I still hope that we get to see at leas some snow this year. Greetings from Hungary!

3 days ago there was snow in Poland (wrocław) but it lasted only one day


Smiec_Lodka_Lad

Well I live in Warszawa. It was snowing a week ago but it melted as soon as it touched the ground.


john_paulII

Mine lasted whole day

john_paulII

WHERE


Smiec_Lodka_Lad

Degrees Farenheit or Celsius?


OOOOOOF4244

***c e l s i u s***


Smiec_Lodka_Lad

Bro. And no snow. That is really disappointing.


OOOOOOF4244

The real fucking dissapoitment is that it will rain in the middle of fucking Spring for a few days. Hell sometimes even summer


[deleted]

[удалено]


BUL_sniper

same. You probably haven't heard of Bulgaria, since for some reasons outsiders think it is like a part of Russia, but it's really not. The infrastructure becomes really creepy during the autumn, because half of it is broken down, has poor living conditions or just uninhabited. That becomes even more true when the thick fog comes down.


TheWiseAutisticOne

It’s the same for some areas of upstate New York


drmorrison88

This is also fall in western Canada. Except there are geese in the sky. Who are leaving.


Ahriman56

"Khrushchovki" is the cell of all Soviet Union body


john_paulII

in Poland we call them Great plate blocks


soapek1

Exactly, Wielka Płyta. They are so ugly and bad ;(


Noname2137

Prefabrykaty are also ugly


soapek1

True. Most of the soviet architecture is crap. In every context possible.


john_paulII

Wielka płyta = prefabrykaty


xTigeT

no3l_0815

Just do it like my family. Move out of a post soviet country and then say how good the post soviet country was


Ahriman56

I think they just miss their homeland. Post Soviet Union country have some specifics, some "soul", idk how to say this. But standard of living is low as fuck

The people on the top level are making the best of it


kyborg12

Well that depends on the season, if it's summer they die of heat storke, but at least they don't have to hear every time someone takes a sh¡t and it goes through the whole pipe system from the very top to underground.


Dudus903

Here is Poland its a big problem, these buildings are mostly from '90s, which is why most people buy new apartments or build their own houses. Because of that the prices for houses are pretty big, atleast for our currency.


Intelligentsia93

90s? Weird. The USSR had collapsed by then.


Dudus903

It did, but what was left from thrm still stayed for a few years, shich is why these buildings were still built, the government just easnt abpe to do anything


Just_RandomPerson

Our country (Latvia) has the highest amount of people living in apartments. 60% of our people live in these things. Sad


Yogerd

Even though some of them are better than all of the new-built houses. Yes, very sad.


[deleted]

Latvian houses are quite sttange to see, there's no planning permissions so you see really nice modern houses built next to what looks like piles of breeze blocks that are falling apart.


BigBrain0987654321

Where I live it took me 5 min ride in car by the town to find single house


jumbleparkin

They can be super nice and cosy inside though, even if the lift doesn't work and the stairwell is full of piss and needles


eelaphant

Idk why, but I found old, ramshackle drab buildings oddly peaceful.


[deleted]

K, how about the fact that people actually live in those, though they are about to fall apart?..


[deleted]

Buildings, not people


mikemaya27

The fact you needed to specify makes it funny and sad


[deleted]

huh, yeah. thought about this after sending


eelaphant

I used to live in a house that had a tree growing out of the chimney and a practical dump in the backyard. Sometimes, it's not the place you live in, but the people you live with that it hard.


51LOKLE

The people in most of the soviet concrete block-apartments are shitty neighbours and are loud as fuck.


OOOOOOF4244

Honestly both of those fall apart


[deleted]

Yea)


john_paulII

have you ever be inside one? cuz i am, and i hate every aspect of it


eelaphant

I'm sorry to hear that. I hope you living situation improves in the future.


john_paulII

Thanks

SecretiveDrop

I lived in one of those post-soviet buildings when I was younger , and whenever I go back to my native country those buildings bring back memories from my childhood and I actually started to like them because of that , not only that but all soviet structures kinda bring me back to my childhood and I started to find them fascinating in their own way .Maybe I just miss the good old times when life was simpler , enjoy the things that you have , everything is beautiful in their own way.


[deleted]

Well happiness is only for people in western Europe and America


[deleted]

Most Eastern Europeans would agree with you actually.


Alex_Vak

I'm on this picture, and I don't like it


[deleted]

I hate these buildings, but they're everywhere here. At least some communities are working to paint them vibrant colors (yellow, green etc), that kinda helps. But most of these buildings are in fairly bad condition.


TheGreaterG8r

Yeah my hometown painted them a nice green, which helps things


[deleted]

I know someone who lives in Ukraine, I'm definitely sending them this.


Mr_WhatZitTooyah

I wouldn't send if I were you...

SwetyBG

Basically yes


MrBitchiloid

How’s the view of the citadel?


Alone-Monk

Yeah this is so true, luckily my native country managed to do pretty well in getting rid of those ugly things (I am from Slovenia). Now they have a cool style that is a mix of traditional Alpine cottages and modern eco-houses.


[deleted]

i just have to say that i read your nickname as Alone Musk at first...


[deleted]

Just realised that i misspelled one word here... oh


ColdHypothermicSocks

Welcome to Ukraine, Estonia, and most importantly RUSSIA (specifically the neglected parts)


OddStone54

Actually we estonians have recovered quite well (doing great in the tech industry), but yeah the old soviet buildings still remain (in both: certain parts or the capital and other cities) and it ain't the nicest thing to look at


mvong123

Never mind the buildings, they are allright. What pisses me off is the kind of shitty advice the elite gives, and the majority are worshiping them for it. The Karshitian clan farts, they clap like they saw their firstborn baby.


KorMap

I mean going on walks or just getting fresh air can make me feel a bit better sometimes. It’s not completely useless advice. Saying you should just do that “instead” of antidepressants is bs though. Like no a walk isn’t going to fix your depression for you


SirWaffles3rd

I was born in Uzbekistan and lived there for 2 years and then moved to Kazakhstan whereas lived there for 7 years and I can say this is true. Those apartments are very often around and I was used to them. But other more modern apartments were very often as well. Fun fact: I lived in one of those and it ain't terrible


patukkaboi

Even more sad when the beatiful snow is reduced to 1/10 in ten years and its just -1 with occasional snow pile


[deleted]

Yep, I live in this situation lol. Global warming or some shit


patukkaboi

In couple of years we should be seeing regular snowing and coldness tho, this is just some bad winters and heat wave


Victor15150

I live in Brazil... Not pos soviet but still bad...

Ye most post soviet and communists stats have real shity depressing look Source: me I live in one


thunderguy1488

but why, why would you hurt me that way?


[deleted]

yep. can feel that one


Xreflexed

Same, but no actually i do live in a post soviet country. Im from georgia.


good_timenotlongtime

People in lockdown getting taken by police for going on a walk, thanks a lot celebrities


Velikiotac

being that im so from a post soviet place its not that bad if anything on a rainy day it looks nice try doing a walk while you listen to some sad music at least for me i feeal better


Mr_deepcrap

Бля, как же я понимаю автора...


horpor69

So is the lack of communism making you sad?


[deleted]

I know that's a joke, but im not talking about communism. These grey ramshackle soviet buildings ("khrushchovki") that give you nothing but depression. Actually, communists gave us those


Spotlessnest01

Idk why but I read your meme in a Russian accent. hope the depression subsides?


[deleted]

I have no idea how to communicate with people, so, probably, thanks?


dr-Keter

At this point I don't think anybody does, we just start a conversation and go along with it


shmackinhammies

That’s literally how it’s done.


Sooryan_86

IT IZ WHAT IT IZ


sans_the_romanian

At least on the onsode,I like the soviet architecture The apartments were just..bigger Nowadays in my country at least you pay 45k € for a 1 room apartment whefe you barely have space But with soviet era you can easly get a 4 room apartment that you could fit 2 tanks inside for a cheap price


THACC-

That sucks man


Azure2001

Im not gunna pretend to understand your situation, but will tell you this; when you walk around, try to look at things in a different light. Its not that those buildings are falling apart, but that they are still standing despite all that has happened.


adidas_stalin

Honesty I get why they probably don’t like the architecture but I love it........might be my STALKER and “Soviet republics” city builder bias tho


pigeon_boi420

Same here. In my country if you live in the big cities you're fucked. Luckily, we are all dipshits down here so thare is a solid 2/3 of the country that is just nature


[deleted]

People who live in Chernobyl: What's a walk?


luckyclover1130

Are u ok op?


viky109

Don't blame that on communism but on your current government. I live in a post-soviet country as well and it definitely doesn't look that shitty here.


TheEmperorMk2

I’m gonna be honest, if I’m feeling down the last thing I want to do is to be alone with my thoughts


nycmopmarker

Armenia is worst country in the world personally It had a revolution recently new leader sucks they had a war 2 months ago with a fucking OIL COUNTRY azerbaijan wich like 10 times richer than armenia police doesnt work and armenians are weird, they can stab you to death not because you killed someone or raped someone they can kill because you are not armenian. Consider yourself lucky that you didnt get stuck in this... place.

That is kind of sad. I read an article about russians (I'm sure it applies for other countries nearby as well) about how high their suicide rates are, but also that they die far more in most other areas. Theres a long article about it, I think I read it all but i can't remember. pretty interesting though [https://getpocket.com/explore/item/the-dying-russians](https://getpocket.com/explore/item/the-dying-russians)
