Нарисовало стикеры, но никто не берет :с если вдруг проснулось желание получить такой листик - пишите, 60 р за лист (ну или если захотите, то можно и больше. Донэйшн, в общем)

You know what is High School?

That's when you clean your cat's hair from black t-shirt with a tape on the break, cause you haven't noticed that at home. Profit

you know what I love abt classical music? Teenagers (most often) become kinda addicted to romantic and 20th century music because it’s so emotional and it’s the classical music version of rebellious music. it’s a weird version of punk and screamo. no mom, I’m not gonna do any more Suzuki , I wanna play Shostakovich. No mom it’s not a phase

[yes-im-a-simple-man]

No but like fr

My grandparents, being the cool people that they are, go to free chamber music concerts every Sunday at their local art museum and one time my grandma went up to the violinist from a quartet that had just performed and was apparently telling him abt her granddaughter (that’s me) and how I love Shosty and he says “Ahh, Shostakovich. I remember that phase.”

[bombuses-will-rise]

Still that phase.

[solassitudes]

my singing voice is good for showers and mornings in the kitchen and drunken nights and lullabies for babies who need sleep and im okay with this

[solassitudes]

i think it’s silly to be ashamed of your art because it’s not in a museum and of your voice because it’s not selling out stadiums. there will always be people who enjoy and appreciate what you can do.

[rosesastrology]

Idk why but this hit me really hard and I’ve been staring at it for a couple minutes.

[bombuses-will-rise]

God, that's truth

[bombuses-will-rise]

[bombuses-will-rise]

Yeah, just some Good Omens stuff

“The idea that Winter could actually be enjoyable would never have occurred to Ramtop people, who had eighteen different words for snow. *

*All of them, unfortunately, unprintable.”

"Carry on,carry on,

As if nothing really matters at all,

At all."

- Queen, "Bohemian Rhapsody"

Nothing really matters at all - I guess minds of a lot of people are made from this thought. Sometimes I look at my classmates when they laugh, when they joke about some things like death and I just understand that they can't even imagine what is unexistance. They are breathing, every cell of their bodies is producing energy, and dying, and regenerating... They run out of time. But they don't even understand it!

I'm afraid of this kind of people. I'm really afraid of people, whose motto is "nothing really matters" just because they can't imagine that everything does matter.

Life isn't that bad. It's not what you think about it.

A lot of people think that life is passing by without any changes around them. Well, life is nothing of that kind. Life isn't a stream which flows in the field. Life is hurricane. It touches everybody around you and turns everything upside down.

The thing is - your life depends on billions of things and that things often depend on you, so take risks, make them happen. You're the owner of this shit life, so its sense is only your business.

My favourite quote from Frei's books is

Existance itself is an answer for every question about the sense.

This quote is brilliant and it's the most true thing I've ever read.

[bombuses-will-rise]

You know, translating is kinda fun

I'm really keen on Max Frei books, so I believe more people should know about them.

Aaaaand, well, there's a poem. It's brilliant.

It's in russian, so I tried to translate it for you.

Here it is.

The wind song

What's the wind singing about

In my empty heart?

It's singing about the flame,

It's burnt my heart into ash.

What's the wind singing about

In my empty heart?

It's singing about the eternal ice,

It's enchained my heart like stone.

What's the wind singing about

In my empty heart?

It's singing about the flame and the ice,

They're in my heart together.

There's also a song, and, well, it's wonderful. Listen to it here:

Сэр Лео ли А'инэ – Песня о пустом сердце. Исполнитель: Сэр Лео ли А'инэ, Песня:

That's the best one in the whole internet.

[bombuses-will-rise]

Don't give up

Hey, don't give up, okay?

You'll overcome all the difficulies. You'll become stronger. You'll find real friends and your real love. You'll do your exams. Everything's gonna be alright.

Even if everythig is awful, even if you feel lonely, even if everything's ruined.

There will be somebody or something worth living for.

Иероглиф

Мое имя - стершийся иероглиф. В рукавах моих - холодный северный и изменчивый западный ветры. Я ступаю по земле в своих развевающихся залатанных лохмотьях, и что несу я - никто не спросит, да если бы и спросили - не сказал бы, лишь рассмеялся в ответ. Никто не узнает, что в сжатых ладонях несу я - сон или смерть, встречу или разлуку, любовь или ненависть.

Стоя на неподвижном, но таком текучем, жарком, дышащем море асфальта, чувствуя всем телом тепло окружающего меня мира, я устремляюсь вдаль, туда, где мой синий морской берег плещет о камни.

Каждый знает, что стою я у них за спиной, но никто не видит меня, никто не знает имени моего, ведь имя мое - стершийся иероглиф.

Кстати, в исполнении Торбы-на-Круче мне как-то больше нравится. Послушайте, не пожалеете.

[bombuses-will-rise]

Huh, some more things to think about at 3 a.m.

I guess I'm not the only one to think about this. I'm absolutely sure that lots of people will recognize their own thoughts.

Well, have you ever had that feeling in the morning like you've died for night and just revived in the morning?

I think that's because sometimes we don't have any dreams and that makes feel us dead.

I would say it's dreadful, but the most frightening thing is that I'm absolutely fearless about that.

[bombuses-will-rise]

Just some things from my head

Erm. I had a bad night, so

I was thiking. A lot.

So.

Our eyes

They are fool of our thoughts

Our eyes are tiny pools, where the whole universe can be placed

And looking into someone's eyes is even more private than kissing

Usually I can't look into someone's eyes in that specific heart-to-heart way. You can know person better in this way, but usually I just don't wanna to. Well, actually, always.

I think that's what loneliness is. You don't have anybody to look into your eyes and you don't wanna to look into anybody's eyes either.

[bombuses-will-rise]

I were about 9 yo when I first heard this song on the radio and I kinda fell in love with it. I dunno if I ever give up listening to Nautilus Pompilius but I'll love this song forever

Привет! I have been using duolingo primarily to learn Russian, and have been improving a lot with being able to translate from Russian to English but I still have a lot of trouble forming my own sentences in Russian. I've started a diary where I write one sentence about my day in Russian but would like to try listening to music to help- all the music I've found has been pop type music. I like alt rock or indie music- do you or your followers have any suggestions for Russian music? Спасибо!

Привет! I’m glad to hear that Duolingo works so well for you! Don’t worry about building sentences in Russian - it is just normal that your listening and reading comprehension is better than your speech production. We as foreign language learners always are much better in understanding than in speaking. It’s just a question of practice. I love rock music, too! I learned English by listening to the British rock bands! Russian rock is somewhat special. For a long time it was banned and existed only as an underground, politically and socially charged movement. Rock musicians didn’t have access to good instruments and studios, but they played rock because they were rebellious and independent. Their musical performance often sucks, but their lyrics are really good. Here are some names for you (you can check Youtube and decide which ones you like):1. Аквариум and Борис Гребенщиков 2. Машина Времени and Андрей Макаревич3. Кино и Виктор Цой4. ДДТ и Юрий Шевчук5. Зоопарк и Майк Науменко (one of the first rock-n-rollers in the Soviet Union)6. Наутилус Помпилиус (Early albums, wonderful lyrics by Ilya Kormiltsev)7. Алиса и Константин Кинчев (I don’t like what he’s doing now, but his early works are pretty strong)8. Воскресение9. Крематорий (questionable, but … When I was a teenager, their depressive, suicidal songs resonated with me)10. Калинов Мост (alternative folk-rock)11. Ария (Russian clone of the Iron Maiden, yet very good lyrics by Margarita Pushkina)12. Агата Кристи (a-la heroine chique)13.  Чайф (they represent the so called Ural rock) 14. Бригада С (could be very deep)15. Ноль (absurd, drug-related songs, a front man is nothing but Charisma)16.  Чиж&Co, nice melodic, somewhat newer wave of rock-music.17. Настя - Russian punk rock.18. Гражданская оборона - classic Russian punkYou can also check the series of CDs of the most important Russian rock bands called Легенды Русского Рока. And thank you for your question! For me it was like a time travel :)
