This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Not gonna lie, this is a big reason why I'm learning Russian. I like to pirate things, look at silly memes, and watch dumb videos, and I also just like the sound of it. A match made in internet heaven.

It's funny to me, though, that LiveJournal is used for intellectual/political discourse in Russia since I mostly know it as a place for shitposts, emo diary entries, and erotic fanfiction.
