Country of informers: a #Muscovite wrote a statement to the police to denounce her own son

As #Russian media writes, a 24-year-old guy:
😱 addicted to jogging and “rocking”;
😱 studies special literature about weapons;
😱 studies #Ukrainian;
😱 reads the #Koran.

This is instead of loving poutine or hilling the beds at the #dacha.

The guy ignores all his mother’s appeals, so she had to ask the police to reason with the “child” and return him to the right path.

Sen. #RonJohnson, a #RussianAsset masquerading as a US Senator, has emerged from his #dacha to express outrage over #federalSpending. Talk about a one-trick pony! Whenever scum like Johnson are desperate to distract attention away from their failures as human beings, they complain about spending. But, when they're in charge, suddenly there's no problem, and it's time for more tax cuts for the wealthy!

There's a absolutely fantastic post from user 'dhruva', about photographer Fyodor Savintsev and his gorgeous photos of dachas, the Russian wooden houses built in the woods or countryside.

What weird designs!

‘A fairytale wooden world’: Soviet country cottages – in pictures

Widespread in the former USSR, dachas set in rural idylls were inhabited by writers, architects and those looking to escape the city for a self-sufficient life

Assuming a #dacha is a second home that you have the means to visit at least a time or two per year that needs minimal maintenance, also you don't have to pay for it. How would you decide where that dacha would be?
