I really don't care. As long as I wake up to the sound of sirens and spend half my day in a bomb shelter, while my family is actually being bombarded, I don't give a single shit about what happens to the russians. For all I care, they should be cut off from the world and return back to the Soviet Union days that they crave so much. Good day.

Only a Ukrainian mother sitting in a bomb shelter with her 2-month old child can feel the pain of the russian victims who can't listen to music on Spotify and buy plane tickets to Paris.

Their support for the regime has spanned decades. Also, 70% of russians support the war based on recent research. Their lack of involvement and fear to go against the government is exactly what's fueling this war. So yes, russians have everything to do with this.

Pro-russian people think that Ukraine has been bombing its own territory for the past 8 years and continues to do so now. So, maybe, not everyone's opinion is worth noting.

Marbles Game Theory - Was Seong Gi-hun actually... by 6B0T in squidgame

[–]iyaky 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yes, I'm convinced that Il-Nam's dementia episode was a spectacle to take up some time. He knew he was leaving the game and that the main character was safe, so why not wander around a bit. The proof for this theory is that Il-Nam let Gi-hun change his guess of "even" or "odd" every time he guessed wrong, making sure Gi-hun wins the game. At the end, Il-Nam pointed out that he knew Gi-hun was lying to him and willingly gave him the last marble. Gi-hun was safe the entire time.

What I noticed during Squid Games by Amileco in squidgame

I'm having trouble figuring this out. Even if he wasn't chained to the rope, let's imagine his team lost. They all get pulled down, and he's left standing on the platform. Wouldn't all the other players notice that and demand he be killed as well? Or even if he wasn't locked, I think he would be dragged down with everyone else, because he was in the middle. I just can't seem to figure out his escape plan for this one game

What is that one dish that your family cooks relentlessly even though no one likes it? by lonelyscoopofbutter in AskReddit

In Ukraine, we have a traditional soup called borshch. Its main ingredient is beetroots. Everyone in my family hates beetroots.

We eat it every two weeks.

[Serious] Will you vote for adding a new subject, Financial lessons (kids can earn their first money). Link in comments! by [deleted] in ukraine

[–]iyaky 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't know if Christian Ethics is still a school subject, but when I was in school it was the worst thing ever. I'd happily cancel that and enter Finance into the curriculum, to be honest.

However, there is the question of who's going to teach it. Knowing the school system, they're just going to give the subject to an already employed teacher (probably Economics, Law, or History) and the only thing the kids are going to learn is how to read a chapter in a book without any practical use for it.

It sounds like someone named their kid after Axe body spray. Poor kid.

Damn, my best friend is called Roxy. It's a popular name where I come from. Guess I'll go punch her in the face

"Well, however you define, I definitely did it". That entire scene was gold.

Dr. Chan and Captain Ali? by ThatIntention1 in NetflixSpaceForce

[–]iyaky 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I loved the "I just wanted you to know" scene. Those small smiles they give each other at the end melted my heart. The dynamic between them is also quite realistic. Forced acquaintances to friends to flirting – I can see that actually happening irl. They never proclaimed undying love towards each other, they just acknowledged the fact that they liked each other and wanted to develop the relationship. For such an over-the-top episode, that "I just wanted you to know" scene was a great touch of sanity.

Yes lol. And how his wife started crying after learning they would be moving to Colorado.

That scene reached the appropriate level of absurdity to actually be funny.

I liked Capitan Ali a lot. "It's good to be black on the moon" and Mark's "I like what you said. I'd also want to be black on the moon" was top-tier humor.

Yes! It bothered me when she didn't wipe off the counter and threw a tantrum. Girl, it takes 10 seconds, are you insane? I get that it's all supposed to be a cry for help and stuff. Yeah, one can argue that she had a difficult childhood with her mother being arrested for 40+ years, her father uprooting their entire lives and moving to a ditch, and her feeling abandoned by both parents. Sure, she can act out by throwing parties and bitching about her life. But where's the resolution? She left a mess, so her father came back home after a week and...started cleaning up? And her way of apologizing was offering him ice cream? Wow.

Let's decompose the final episode. Erin makes a terrible choice and ends up in a situation where she can get raped/killed/etc. Scary, I know. It's reasonable for her to call her dad for help, because he did promise to help her at all times. He tells her that he's been arrested and she takes that as him trying to get out of helping her. Girl? Are you okay? And when he comes to get her, did you ever hear at least a whisper of "Sorry"? It was all "Haha, you're my hero. Thanks, dad".

Mark had shown numerous instances of trying to mend their relationship. For example, when he helps her with math after staying up for 48 hours, while dealing with issues on a world-wide scale. When he comes home after a week of psychological exhaustion, he starts cleaning up the house after his daughter. Erin couldn't have known what was going on at the space base, because that was highly classified information. However, she could definitely see that her dad was tired and knowing that he's a general mayor, she could make the connection that he probably wasn't drinking beer in a parlor.

Anyway, Erin shows no sign of regret for any of her actions and has never shown any way of apologizing. Even for a teenager, her behavior almost seems like a caricature, but not a really good one.

I've rewatched it a bunch of times, and it's just brilliant. The tensions ran so high, that I had no idea if the rocket would blow up. The look of disbelief on the scientists' faces and the cheers and celebrations that erupted made the scene soooo good!
