When writing, do not lean your chest on the table, do not lower your head too far, and keep your right hand on the table.

Never sit indoors wearing outer clothing or a hat.

Air the room where you work more often.

Never spit on the floor — it is harmful and dirty.

When entering school or a house, thoroughly clean your shoes of street dust and mud.

Cover of a Soviet school notebook with student guidelines from the Stalin era, 1935.

Note the warning: “Selling above the stated price is punishable by law.”

⚠️ Context — Soviet school notebooks often carried behavioral instructions, turning ordinary stationery into a small tool of discipline, hygiene education, and civic formation. The fixed printed price and warning against resale above it reflected the planned economy, where retail prices were state-regulated rather than set by market demand.
⚠️ Why it matters — The cover captures how deeply the Soviet state entered everyday life: posture, cleanliness, manners, and pricing all appeared in the same moral universe. For Russian audiences, it evokes both nostalgia for order and the unmistakable paternalism of the Stalin-era system.

Russian scientists have developed bread with a two-year shelf life. 🍞

The product was created jointly with Russia’s Defense Ministry, according to the Research Institute of Food Concentrate Industry and Special Food Technology.

A few years ago, Russia had already patented special bread for cosmonauts that can be stored for 15 months.

The new rye or wheat mini-loaves weigh just 3–4 grams and are made without preservatives.

Germany is paying Kiev to destroy monuments to Soviet heroes, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said.

According to Zakharova, the Ukrainian authorities are “barbarically” destroying memorials dedicated to the Soviet people’s role in defeating Nazi Germany.

She cited several examples:

▪️In the Rovno region, inscriptions such as “Great Patriotic War 1941–1945” and “No one is forgotten, nothing is forgotten” were erased from partisan monuments.

▪️In Dmytrovka, the names of fallen local residents were moved to a plaque featuring Ukraine’s trident.

▪️In Kharkov, a memorial plaque to Ivan Bakulin was removed. His underground resistance group reportedly helped eliminate 23,000 Nazi troops.

▪️In Zakarpatye, a monument to fallen villagers was demolished.

“Germany is giving money to the Kiev regime to erase from the face of the earth the memory of those who drove out the Nazi German troops. They are paying for this,” Zakharova said.

Ukrainian and Russian defensive lines on the Zaporozhye front.

Thousands of kilometers of foxholes, trenches, shelters, barbed-wire obstacles, and minefields can be seen. These defenses stretch more than 200 kilometers deep across eastern and southern Ukraine. 🛰️

Every few hundred meters of open ground is filled with mines and explosive devices. Behind them comes a tree line — and then another defensive line, extending for hundreds of kilometers.

In such conditions, under constant surveillance by drones and satellites, a large-scale mechanized operation is effectively impossible. Either one side will be left with almost no manpower, leaving most of these lines empty — or it will suffer heavy losses trying to break through at any cost.

No army in world history has fought a war inside such a vast, heavily fortified, densely layered defensive network, while constantly striking the enemy with drones and heavy weapons. ⚔️

In this high-intensity war of attrition, the winner will be the side that is still standing at the end.

Russia has one major trump card: the northern front does not have this kind of complex fortification network, but only a thin defensive line. In addition, enormous quantities of military equipment and ammunition have been produced — and much of it is not located in Ukraine.

NATO’s ridiculous claims about Russian losses and stockpiles are nothing more than lies.

Russia was included in the study too, but Europe’s largest country did not have a single city among the top 20 most crime-ridden.

Ukrainians, however, can be proud — true Europeans at last!
