I know it’s an unpopular opinion given current circumstances, but I’ve always been a huge nerd about Russia. The history, the geography, the music, etc. And as an American, I’ve always found it fascinating how U.S.-Russian relations have fluctuated over time. We’ve gone from allies, to enemies, to frenemies. This doesn’t mean I support Z or Putin, of course. What are you a nerd about?
You’re pretty on the money there, at least if you live in an area with poor infrastructure. I can’t go outside without feeling a bit of dispair for how my city is built for cars rather than people. Car-centricity is everywhere I look.
