Recently, I can’t stop thinking how that little song by Psoy Korolenko [1] has turned out to catch up with us — to be about us (“and that song is about us,” as Psoy later said on his recording [2] with Oy Division of an Arkady Severny [3] tune) too directly and too precisely, much more than I […]

About time to rewatch Uncle Buck, it seems (bearing in mind that John Candy was just thirty-four then). Last time, I was still younger than both him and his character — yet I perceived a significant perspective shift, and I have thought about it ever since. Now then […] [Original post on zirk.us]

Meanwhile, stumbled on a SAUDI satirical cartoon series. Back in 2021 its creator got prosecuted for “promoting terrorism and homosexuality” in the show. All unhappy families are indeed unhappy in the same way. #animation #saudiarabia #dissent ___ Masameer County (2021)

Last night, rushing for the last tram. Halfway to the stop — bunch of boys, huddled. In the middle — at first I think, another boy. No. A girl. Tomboy. Sitting on the asphalt, legs stretched, rollerblades on. Something’s happening. Some incident. (01/02) #microprose #flashfiction #jerusalem […]

Xi Jinping: Earlier, people rarely lived to 70, but these days at 70 years you are still a child. (Bloomberg) And he said: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. (Matthew 18:3) #politics, #geopolitics, #china, #russia […]

Once, about fifteen years ago, I was either intern on the radio, or already working there, or maybe just on my way in—and I dropped by Domzhur to have a shot of vodka and a sandwich with caviar. (1/8) #russia #moscow #memoir #fifteenyearsago #Vodka #tales #drunkenhistories @writing @nonfiction

Among the books I grabbed at the local bookcrossing spot yesterday was a little brochure of the 1956 English translation of Phaedrus by W.C. Helmbold and W.G. Rabinowitz (Twelfth edition from 1975). The pages are covered in pencil notes in Hebrew, but that’s not the […] [Original post on zirk.us]
