#russian nt

[snovyda]

Watched a documentary about the (now legendary) football games between the national teams of russia and Ukraine in 1998 and 1999. The sheer levels of imperialistic fascism the russians were displaying leading up to those games is just typical. And yes, both those games took place before putin came to power, russians have just always been like that.

Patches and pins "russian invasion of Ukraine 1998" were popular among the russian fans leading up to the first game in Kyiv:

The rhetoric in the russian media about Ukraine not really being a separate country intensified.

For the record, russia lost that game 3:2.

But all of this is nothing compared to the second game, in Moscow in 1999. Russia needed only to win in order to move on in the tournament. Ukraine could settle with a draw. And that is when the true madness unfolded.

Probably the best known episode was this headline in one of the biggest sports newspapers in russia:

You see, they had a player with the last name "Khokhlov". So, on the surface level, the headline says, "Kick, Khokhlov, save Russia!" However, if you read out the headline, it also says "Kick [slur word for Ukrainians], save russia!". The slogan is a paraphrase of one of the main slogans of the russian Black Hundreds (ultra-reactionary, ultra-nationalist pogromist monarchist movement in the russian empire in early 20th century), only in the original versions there was the slur for Jews there instead. The russians were very proud of that pun. It was everywhere at the time.

Vladimir Putin, who was the russian prime minister at the time, was present at the game. The way the russian commentators already went out of their way to keep singing his praises for no reason is a good indicator how russians tend to make a cult of personality around everyone who happens to be a figure of authority.

And then the game finished with a draw 1:1 after an unbeliavable goal by Andriy Shevchenko (and due to a mistake from russia's goalkeeper):

Putin got really upset. He stopped showing up at such sporting events for years after this.

The bus with the Ukrainian national team got attacked on its way to the stadium before the game (according to Shevchenko, russians threw bottles at it) and especially after the game (with all sorts of objects being thrown at it, from beer bottles to rocks).

Absolutely typical. And one of the clearest views of ruscism.

Peace has a price.

During the Ukraine versus Belgium match, fans displayed a banner with the image of Nazariy Hryntsevich, call-signed «Hrienka».

Nazariy Hryntsevich is a fallen soldier and football fan.

The image was generated by artificial intelligence from the photos of 182 fallen Ukrainian soldiers, who, in civilian life, were part of fan movements supporting Ukrainian clubs.

Okay with Simone it would be a close match I was getting a lil too eager there but like. The national team without her? Lmfao.

I sincerely believe that people would be a lot more frustrated with each member of this little triumvirate of a NTC role if Russia had been here this whole quad. Like what the fuck are you people even doing? USA hasn’t been genuinely pushed in almost 3 entire years now. No stakes nothing on the line no team results being threatened. USA fans would all be MUCH less complacent if they had actual competition.

Russia would devour USA even with Simone sorry

In defence of tsiskaridze… he came to the school in 2015, which means he’s been rector for the whole time Koshkarova, Valiullina, Kuprina, Karamysheva, Gritsina, Barinova, Zakota, Solomina, Kishnova, Efimova and others were in the first grade. And they are beautiful dancers, like I think we are overestimating the changes happening. In addition to this, the class that Tsiskaridze took over was a “weak class” (I swear these are his own words from an video with Ilya), and they look good in the exam, even though it’s not pure vaganova. However we don’t know they’re day to day classes. We don’t know if during class they do plain vaganova pure exercises, and then tried something new and a bit bonkers just for the exam. I wouldn’t be surprised, and it would explain why the exam isn’t super clean, maybe they don’t do these crazy exercises every day, just they put on a show for their exam, which is objectively more fun to watch, and maybe it’s more fun for them to execute, like the little variation breaks? Bonkers, but fun! We can’t forget how passionate the Russians are about the art of ballet, they are so passionate and they are risk takers!

Valid!!! Let’s see how the next few years pan out. Question though: What about the men? It feels like there’s been a real drought on that front, no? And NT should be focused on cultivating the next generation of premieres. The pipeline of female talent seems quite endless.

just spent 18 minutes sitting in the michael’s parking lot replaying the same eight bars of a song i first heard a decade and a half ago so i can learn the words to the russian part. very normal very NT Behavior(tm)

What is it with me being drawn to the most fucked up personalities ever 🤦‍♀️

Let's talk Hilbert, pt. 1

There was a post where I was totally freaking out in the tags but it's got buried in the drafts, so I'll just go off it here, but hopefully in a more constructive way. I really hope my mind didn't lose its ability to do this yet. Buckle up, this is going to be a long one. (I mean it.)

I want to rant about how wrong the accent sounds and how the character is yet another example of a distasteful trope in north american media, but the fuckheads in the government confirmed this trope in multiples so whatever. Besides, I can't really complain when the character turned out to be compelling and... well. "Complicated" would be a bit of an overstatement I think, but - complicated enough to spur some thoughts.

So my first thought was the one I started the post with, because after the first shock of Hilbert's mutiny settled and future episodes revealed more of his behaviour, backstory and character overall, I had to admit with a certain amount of inner horror (10% to 20%) and frustration (at least 80%) that yes. "Oops, I did it again".

I have a history with such personalities, feel drawn to them and have been really, really trying to stop this nonsense for a year, but. Uh. Looks like this code runs too deep to scoop it all out just like that, huh. Anyway, back to the topic.

Well, this time I at least know exactly why the character compels me so much. "Airlock, please."

I'll start with why I've grown to be okay with "mad evil russian scientist" trope - not because the above mentioned fuckheads in the Gov confirmed it (they did and I hate them and what they're doing but unfortunately can't do anything about it), any generalisation based on a trait like nationality, gender, race and so on is a very bad thing I don't want to participate in no matter the circumstance, - but because Hilbert was given an actual well-rounded personality, and, most of all, I can't help feeling tons of respect to it. He is pretty smart, after all - knows several languages, has a degree in molecular biology, and apparently AI programming is a walk in a park for him, although his skills in this department aren't as great compared to actual specialists (but then again Maxwell is in a league of her own and is far above most of her colleagues even, so everything is relative). Being this well-versed in a field not directly connected to his own and mastering several foreign languages is. Well - wow. I'd respect this alone.

Hm, I'll start again, from the beginning.

Hilbert turned out to be the character I felt more interest towards pretty soon (the other two being Hera and - later - Eiffel), probably after that joke about "people keep saying that, and yet my problems keep going away". There wasn't much time between the moment he stopped being just a comic relief and his betrayal, but that time was enough I guess. Because the very first thing that grabbed my attention and kept it till the end was just how easy he is to understand. Seriously, of all the characters - I can barely trace what they could potentially do or think, they aren't defined enough for me (and that's fine, I feel this way about most people), - but this one is crystal clear.

It's his whole... personality frame? the way he speaks and thinks? It's just very clear. Not always as logical as he'd like to believe, but close. Most things he says are very reasonable, and... ugh. I'll round back to this anyway, so better let the cat out of the bag right away: I'm ND, and I've seen some people headcanon him to be autistic, and I don't really have any better way of describing why he's so understandable to me. It's just the way neurodivergent people think - different for everyone, of course, and NTs can do this like that too (after all, there are SO MANY unintentionally autistic or ADHD characters out there), - but there are still patterns, and I recognize them here.

It's in his reasoning and actions before the Christmas "surprise" - mostly calm, collected, speaks very directly and straight to the point. He mostly keeps up this pattern even when he lies.

And then, once you learn where you stand with him - after the mutiny - you know. Even when he hides something, it's clear that he's keeping things. He has a very distinct moral code and follows it, so when lying has no point anymore, he doesn't. I don't think he lied to the crew after the initial betrayal at all? Idk, I may be forgetting things, listened to it just once yet save for the first 10 eps (because I can't get through the last one and went back to the beginning).

There's a kind of trust in this transparency. Yes, everyone knows that Hilbert knows far more than he tells and if he doesn't see a good reason to, he probably won't say a word he doesn't want to. But the fact is, you still know about that. It's obvious when something's missing, the spaces are glaring. I have a feeling he doesn't like lying all that much, or rather doesn't see the point of it unless it's strictly necessary. Why wasting the resources when you don't have to and can direct them to more pressing matters, like saving the humanity, am I right?

So that's two points. The third - one when I REALLY realized I'm stuck well and deep - was the "Airlock, please". No hesitation, nothing. Just a polite choice. That short line fucked me up well.

Because after his betrayal I was horrified. I like how the podcast doesn't let any terrible moments slip or stay "behind the scenes" - no, if there's a life threatening situation, the audience doesn't have the luxury of sitting it out safely unaware. We're going to experience and hear it all, "present day, present time". So when Minkowski was shut out of the ship in outer space, while Doug was desperately trying to come up with a solution, I obviously empathized with them. And all this time we were listening to the doctor, proceeding with his orders in the most cold-hearted manner possible. He heard it all, too, and didn't waver. This was terrifying and I honestly couldn't imagine how this character was going to be present for the most of the podcast - I wanted him dead, the sooner the better. And - as a parallel line of thinking - couldn't help feeling it was such a waste. I started liking this character, he was goofy but really easy to understand, and it's very nice to have someone like this. Obviously everything was going to change from that point.

But then. The way he went through all the interrogations, all the insults and mocking? And his fucking choice to die right away rather than to give away the information he didn't think was intended for his former crewmates? Before that answer I thought he was keeping his mouth shut because of the company only, fear of the higher-ups or something - he did follow their orders and threw away the lives of two people who weren't strangers to him, so it was a reasonable assumption! Minkowski seemed to think the same, judging by her remarks, but no. And that moment, that single answer turned my understanding of this character upside down. None of that dignity was just a show, he really meant it.

I realized he didn't fear for himself. At all. A complete disregard of self, was it? It seemed so that moment, and yeah, it was fucking compelling - the only thing that mattered was his work and his dedication to it. If it was only that, I wouldn't be typing all this though.

Before I continue, I'll note that even this trait - this dedication - is very relatable and understandable to me. Some years ago the only value I saw in myself was in what I loved to do the most - drawing and translation. I'm very mid level, and even this may very well be an overestimation of my skills, but those were the only things that mattered to me. If I didn't do them, what was even the point of me? I didn't feel I fully lived otherwise. I overcame this way of thinking as it is pretty damaging, but I still remember it perfectly. And I still need for what I do to matter. If I manage to make some positive impact on the world around, however small it may be, that would be enough, and that would be the only thing that matters after I'm gone. Hilbert though makes this approach absolute because of his trauma. So yeah, I have a lot of complicated feelings about this all at once. It's tragic, it's admirable, it's heartbreaking and feels like the only way at times, it should never happen.

I also know very well what it means to be able to disregard pretty much anything if I believe this is the right way or the aim to be important enough. I unintentionally made my friend cry once because of this and keep this memory as a reminder of why I should always try to see other POVs and a broader picture. The absolute, applied to human principles, is a bad idea in most cases.

Also, I like that he has a no-nonsense personality but regularly engages in said nonsense. I know in the first few episodes the creators just didn't understand where to go with the podcast yet and that's why everyone and everything is so different there, but I need for things to make sense in-universe, so I'm partial to the POV that Hilbert just put up an act and dropped it later. But still, he did participate in the crew's shenanigans and didn't seem to complain about it. And Funzo? Please, it was A DELIGHT. There was NOTHING, no reasons to take part in the game but he still did. The doctor is pretty goofy when he lets himself, huh? I like this fun part of his personality. The best sign the personality is still very much present.

Silly Game Time: I'm a word nerd. Share with me some words you really like! (And if you speak more than one language, what're some of your favorite words in your second language?)

Gruntled, it's being happy and content lmao. It's such a nice word to say. Uhh, it's not really a word (it's a butchering of two languages) because it's something that toddler me made up. For some reason my parents thought it'd be a good idea to teach (just fragments, because after WWII and local hatred to two languages my paternal and maternal families stopped teaching their kids the languages) English, German, Russian, and my native tongue (it'd dox me if I wrote it but believe me when I say it's doxable. I also sadly can't talk in it anymore because I was forced to forget it growing up).

The word in English is 'thank you' but toddler me mixed German with my NT and it became 'danke dok'. Which when translated directly into English it becomes 'thanks thank' lmao

@unhonestlymirror

lo and behold, here it is, the Bulgarian Putin diss track by the unparalleled GP aka Gosho ot Pochivka / Gosho from Pochivka Почивка / Pochivka is the name of a Varna neighborhood, this is where this underground rapper is from (he lives in Spain now tho)

first off, I'll start with explaining the song's title, Putkin. it's a portmanteau of V. Putin's family name and the Bulgarian word for p*ssy/c*nt, путка. basically, Pussin or Cuntin.

now the lyrics:

ей ей fuck Путкин fuck Путкин GP бейбе GP бейбе ей, fuck Путкин Путкин, ти си болен мозък, знаем го това само чешеш голата глава, играеш на война Путкин, ти си болен мозък, знаем го това само чешеш голата глава Путкин, Путкин, ти си болен мозък йе Путин, да ти го нахлюпим ти си болен, много долен, цял ден заплахи, играеш си на войник това е твоята война, спирай веднага, комплексар, мислиш се за цар, а-а се криеш отиди в Украйна да се биеш само ануса си миеш всяка вечер "Смирнов" пиеш банален изтъркан съветски простак, за теб е този BG трак, стига с тези бомби лижи на баба си набръчканите цомби разходи си кучето, дето Бойко ти го подари* вземи удари от GP война - само в твоята празна глава дойде ми до гуша от това подай оставка, стига с таз ебавка много си смел, а се криеш в дупката като мравка как тебя зовут?** свински пут-кин на парашут, яж барут, темерут Путкин, ти си болен мозък, знаем го това, само чешеш голата глава, играеш на война Путкин, ти си болен мозък, знаем го това само чешеш голата глава, играеш на война Путкин, Путкин, ти си болен мозък, Путкин, Путкин, Путкин (ти си болен мозък) Путкин, ти си злобен, много болен, като Волен***, много долен

искаш само война с твоите войници я отивай да бараш на рускинята големите цици искаш парици (да) мразят те женици, и децата, и бабите по селата, много си доволен, само заплашваш всеки ден с гадните си бомби спри! изчезни! в дупката си се върни! устата ти смърди на лайна! писна ми от теб! Путкин, ща захлюпим! след covid-19 сега и ти поне се засрами! сега те храни GP! йе, йе, йе, йе, йе, йе, йе Путкин, йе, йе Путкин, обвиняваш ти всичките украинци но защо не вземеш твоите руснаци? всички сте паляци! Путкин, Путкин, ти си болен Путкин, ти си болен мозък, знаем го това само чешеш голата глава, играеш на война Путкин, ти си болен мозък, знаем го това само чешеш голата глава, играеш на война Путкин, ти си болен мозък, знаем го това, ЯЖ ЛАЙНА! now, the translation: hey, hey, fuck Pussin fuck Pussin GP baby GP baby hey, fuck Pussin Pussin, you're sick in the head, we know that, all you do is scratch your bald head and play war Pussin, you're sick in the head, we know that, all you do is scratch your bald head Pussin, Pussin, you're sick in the head yeah Putin, we'll put the lid on you you're sick, very vile, threats all day you're playing soldier this is your war, stop immediately, loser, you think you're a tsar, but-but you're hiding go fight in Ukraine, all you do is wash your anus, you drink "Smirnoff" every evening banal washed-up soviet simpleton this BG track is for you stop with these bombs lick your grandma's wrinkly badonkers go walk the dog that Boyko gave you* take hits from GP war - only in your empty head I've had enough of that resign, stop with this fuckery, you're very brave, but you're hiding in the hole like an ant how do they call you?** pork Pussin on a parachute eat gunpowder, curmudgeon Pussin, you're sick in the head, we know that, all you do is scratch your bald head Pussin, you're sick in the head, we know that, all you do is scratch your bald head

Pussin, Pussin, you're sick in the head, Pussin, Pussin, Pussin (you're sick in the head) Pussin, you're vicious, very sick, like Volen***, very vile

I've had enough of you! Pussin, we'll put the lid onto you! after covid-19, now it's you, shame on you! now GP is dissing you! yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Pussin, you blame all the Ukrainians, but why don't you take a look at your Russians? y'all are clowns!

Pussin, Pussin, you're sick Pussin, you're sick in the head, we know that, all you do is scratch your bald head Pussin, you're sick in the head, we know that, all you do is scratch your bald head Pussin, you're sick in the head, EAT SHIT! * - in 2009, Bulgarian prime minister at the time, Boyko Borisov, gifted Putin a Bulgarian Shepherd puppy ** - this originates from a joke that appeared when Bulgarian kids had to study Russian during socialist times. one child would say "как тебя зовут" which is "what's your name" in Russian, and the other would reply "свински бут на парашут" ("ham/pork leg on parachute" in Bulgarian). Here, GP has come up with a wordplay - свински пут-кин на парашут *** - this is a reference to Volen Siderov, a Russophilic far-right Bulgarian politician who has faded out of popularity

yeah I know it's not like Cypis's song but it's still funny :D

Since when did you start following football?

Since 2018 when the World Cup in Russia started

Favorite National Teams?

Croatia NT - because they achieved so much those past 5 years, yes I know they like to move games to penalties and play with our nerves, but I still feel like I am part of their family like other Croatia NT fans :)

Russia NT - because I simply like Russian people and I am half one, so I really fell in love with that team. They played so well during the WC in 2018 and during WC qualifiers. I was literally so miserable when I found out they will not be able to participate in Qatar

Serbia NT - idk I love them simply because they are our neighbours and I always love supporting my neighbours during EURO and WC

Who was your favorite player then and why?

(Wow wut a hard question I have asked myself) Livakovic obviously. I know he was being kept on a bench, but I always knew he would be a great goalkeeper, he is our number 1 and very important member of the National Team, yet I didn't post stuff about him at all because I didn't have Tumblr, I was a dumb kid lmfao- but yeah, I can talk about him 'till I die, so yeah I am moving to the next question before I go too far

Do you train football? If you don't, why?

Hell no I don't. First of all; I am very anti-social person (tho there is exclusion when it comes to going on matches I love rooting with other peeps), Second of all; I have very low self-esteem, Third of all; I wanted to be a goalkeeper, but I was always afraid to get goals bc people often get mad at me, fuck them

Favorite clubs?

Dinamo Zagreb - I've been following this club since 2018 after the end of WC in 2018 mainly because of Livi, I love that guy sm he is precious, but the love of this club has grown in 2021 because of its success in Europa League.

Man City - Kova plays in City and he is literally my 2nd fav football player, and one of my best friends roots for City so here we are 👌

October 9th, 2023

I'll try to write while I still have the sanity to do so.

So, the wonderful people at NTS Radio have just announced a list of new residents, which includes a Russian musician — and one of the most miserable ones, Yana Kedrina, better known as Kedr Livanskiy. Her existence has been largely okay in fascist times — she has been docile and regime-friendly enough that she even gets invited to play at events funded by President Putin's Fund, seemingly (well, the Presidential Fund For Cultural Initiatives, at the festival Novatoria, and another festival, whose name escapes me, was mentioned in the comments). She knows full well how incriminating and pro-fascist this makes her look — in fact, I have a screenshot of her requesting her fans take videos of only her "singing head" at Novatoria on her Telegram channel, so that the banner "SUPPORTED BY THE PRESIDENTIAL FUND FOR CULTURAL INITIATIVES" right behind her can be at least cropped out of frame. She also, embarrassingly, discouraged people from filming the name of the festival, Novatoria (not everyone obliged — that's why I have screenshots of her playing there). I guess her real life under fascism destroys the fairy-like magic that she so desperately chases on her social media, in her pictures always smiling, always dancing, always charming and carefree. I am so sick of this cowardly bullshit, of these people hoping someone doesn't notice who they really are, always hiding, always lying. I am so, so sick of this shit.

Upon my comment about how inviting a seemingly pro-Putin artist, whose life hasn't even remotely been affected by a war she allows, is probably not cool, and speaking to her about her politics (does she have any?) would probably be "a thrill", she posted a story about how she was going to share the "happy news" that she is now a resident at NTS Radio, but "the Ukrainians have commenced shitting all over me, so there is no happy news". She also alludes to some kind of slander — I assume the only thing that is relatively debatable is her like or dislike of Putin. Here, it is important to point out that like or dislike of Putin by a Russian is completely irrelevant to me. Whether Yana Kedrina is an ardent Putinite or a "dissident" who is just quiet as a mouse and takes some bloody money from fascists from time to time, is of no consequence to me — bullets still fly the same; it is simply a convenient indicator. Her attitude towards the war she allows (which I have not seen her express anywhere at all) does not stop the rockets and tanks her taxes paid for. It doesn't matter what she thinks of Putin in her private, unpublished moments, the only thing that matters is what she does, because the only thing that matters to me is ending the war, saving Ukrainian lives. Like I already said, the only hope of being a "good Russian" these people have is literally becoming a soldier that is the equal and opposite force to one of the thousands of Russian soldiers currently murdering us. That's it — it's too late for posts, for charity donations (not that she made any); the genocide has already long begun. The only answer possible to it is stopping the Russian Army in the only way they have shown to understand — by force. There's no talking them back out of it.

And I could give two fucks about what some singer, whose music is of no interest to me, thinks way deep down inside about whether I deserve to be killed or not. I want actions. I wanted them for 20 months.

Hypothetically, let's say, she at least posted something about the war once in a while. Let us say, on her hollow and "magical" profile, where you can't even tell anything is happening at all, two words appear, the oh-so-difficult for your dissidents НЕТ ВОЙНЕ ("NO TO WAR"). Let's even say her whole profile was filled with pictures of us, with evidence of war crimes, with screenshots of donations, with regret, guilt, understanding. That wouldn't even be close to make it okay to invite a Russian artist as your resident, my friends at NTS. It would make it seem like you can basically ignore fascists coming to power, finance them, make deals with them, and then just post a little bit on the internet and it's all cool.

Let's say she never played a Putin festival — because that was never my main issue with her. She had played multiple times in annexed Crimea, entering it from Russia, which is generally a big no-no in terms of not only the way Ukrainians see you (as a fascist supporter), but even in terms of international law. Let's say she never did that either. How come it's even remotely okay to invite a Russian to do anything these days? How come it's okay to reward people for being cowards?

I think a very important consideration that people don't usually take into account is the question of "what would it take for a Ukrainian to live like this?". Meaning, what would it take for a Ukrainian in 2023 to live like the ignorant coward Yana Kedrina does: have no friends or relatives cruelly, intentionally murdered; lead a carefree life without daily air raids, shellings, interruptions to sleep, work, rest; to make music that is largely disconnected from any negative emotion, largely fantasy-world-based; to work with NTS at all? None of this is possible, I'm afraid, possibly save for being an NTS resident — not that they would offer this (there were no Ukrainians announced as residents).

I was invited by a producer I know to record a guest mix for NTS around the same time Kedr Livanskiy was playing the Putin fest, in August of 2023. I replied that in the military I just have my iPhone, and there is no time, no possible way to record anything, to even begin thinking about it. It's funny how the people who are responsible for the war can be full-time NTS residents and the innocent people (and I also consider myself a much better producer) can eat shit and die for all they care.

And lastly, I guess, I'd like to say that I have never seen a Russian take criticism from a Ukrainian adequately. They never acknowledge any wrongdoing, no matter what we say and how factual, to-the-point we can be. It's always "oh I'm getting shat on by Ukrainians/they're all bots/it's all trolling/that’s racist/you’re a Nazi/liar/and I used to support Ukraine and this is how you treat me/how dare you".

All our criticisms of Russians are systemic, not personal, yet all they hear is an attack, never a call to action — because action is, for them, unimaginable at all.

Good luck to NTS Radio on their future endeavors with Russians and the utterly mediocre music they make and will continue making. I fully understand that the brilliant, exhilarating music I will keep making after we win would, certainly, seem a bit out of place.

P.S. After I posted about this on Instagram, someone reached out and told me that in the early days of the war they were discussing a possibility of a new show on NTS, but their condition was that they would not put on music by Russians, or artists that have not expressed their opposition to the war. As they tell me, the people at NTS took a long time to think this over, and finally sent back a morose reply that claimed they were uncomfortable with such a (astonishingly radical in it's logic and reason) concept.

🛑NOTE: I am a bit scared of fire, so lighting candles is kinda off the table (for now). aromatherapy(incense and diffusion) is no problem, though cause the flame in incense is inside a metal container, so it won't go crazy and it's not as visible 🛑

As you can see, my alignments when it comes to deities are on the Chthonic and darker side of the coin. They are wonderful but hold many mysteries. secretiveness is quite common (Lord Thanatos, I'm looking at you!), but it is because they hold the hidden and primordial dark knowledge of subconscious fears, changes, and visions. I trust my intuition and rely on it greatly
