JP-RU anime translator. Attack on Titan, Kaguya-sama, Danmachi, Sonny Boy, etc, etc.
Fantasy after day one still bugging, but it seems I'm in the end of top100 list with main acc :D

2nd and 3rd one showing solid results too, but that's less than a 100k atm.

The International is coming! So it's time for Dota Fantasy again! Most rules are the same: pick core, mid and support, roll for better bonuses.
Maroomm from Reddit parsed a lot of matches to find best players: Yatoro, bzm, Mira.
But it seems he missed one point. The format of the tournament. 1/x

Special offers you get only in RU: buy for ~200$ at grocery store, get share of this store later (~30$). Promotion was in May, in July I finally got the share. It could be easier to just use normal promo for 15-20% off at any big bank, but that was interesting experience.

"Male t-shirt. Used". It looks like a bold move for 2k25 Russland, considering gay and te**rist are synonyms here, but most likely people in this place just overlooked it, they have to deal with hundreds of new items every few weeks after all.

By the way, where did the summer go? Why it's August already?

Damn, what a week to be a f1 fan! The only way it can get crazier is if he join Ferrari next.

Wow! What a race! And #HULK finally got a podium!

With Summer Season coming close, I struggle with only one question: WHO FOR GOODNESS SAKE IS TOKO KIRISHIMA?

(Wrong answers only, don't spoil the Uni arc)

Peace, Labor, Bealtaine!

Added few paper books to my shelf. You can access so many with subscription these days that I barely buy any. I bought last bunch in December. Anyway, mostly nonfiction and selfcare this time. And manga about skating maid by すずしろ! I had to check it out!
May 1, 2025 at 7:05 PM
Done! That was a long and enthralling journey. Now it's time for the New Spring and TV series!

Be careful, some spoilers ahead.

Plus few artworks through the book. The format is similar to ranobe, but not every ranobe got all of this.

I wish we got smth like this for RU version. There's only maps, few decorated elements, like Wheel or rings, plus modern colored cover.

Did you know about Japanese edition of Wheel of Time, with each book sliced on 3-8 part, each with special cover and illustration from Toshiaki Kato? Here some. Elayne, Egwene, Nynaeve. Min Farshaw. Berelain.

After few years of delay finally started Wheel of Time book series. Never in my life I read so much, with 1000+ pages/week and basically full time job. Amazing worldbuilding with small details, like cursing, rituals and views on a lot of things changing from place to place.

Back to RU stocks. It grew fast at first peace talks, but after that - not so much. We dancing about 3100-3200 for month. Brokers say we got huge growth ahead if rate will rapidly go down from 21% levels, but will it? I still don't see RU compromise on anything, so they keep fighting, I suppose?

Just few months ago I thought 498 score in HOMM3 is just impossible, yet now I got 3 or 4 runs like that, ones it happened on stream. Can't tell if it's luck or I actually doing better now.

MOEX and RGBI did well after Russian Central Bank made a pause in rackining-up the keyrate, but both didn't react to Trump much. Yet. RGBI slightly correcting for 2 weeks, MOEX losing steam after failing to pass 3000 mark.

I don't keep up with shrinkflation here! I'm still not done with my 85g bar of chocolate and they already cut it to 80g!

1st day on Moscow Exchange after Crocus mass shooting. Market is green, nothing happened in its opinion. It was the same after Prigozhin's coup. Friday evening rockets falled to mercenary's camp, Monday morning everything is right on the Earth, market is green again.

Some may say, that winter is charming in its own way, but I just want to skate again like I did on this exact day a year ago.
February 7, 2024 at 9:10 PM
Surprising how weather can change from year to year. In December I was about to boast about almost snowless winter we got for a few years straight. And now I roam through snow dunes to any store around me and meekly hope that it goes away in middle of March. But maybe not. Sigh. Random summer photo.

Main movement in RU market this year expected in March-June, with all the dividends are announced and expectations of Bank of Russia to lower the rates in second half of the year.

But there is THE elections in March. And smth bad always happens right after it. I wonder how market will price it.

Year just started and I'm already more than a percent behind the benchmark.

Can't help it though - got a lot of bonds (mostly floaters), so I go both up and down slower.

Rows are profit this year (RUB/USD), 2 RU indexes and 1 US, both value and %.
