I want to believe that in the new decade, people who love to listen to hits about a glass of vodka on the table will disappear. That the decline of the Mikhalkov family will finally come. That a barrier will arise, blocking the path of base American culture. That road accidents involving high-ranking officials and members of their families will stop. That dual citizenship of Ukraine and Russia will be allowed. That the Caucasian race will give a tough rebuff to Chinese expansion. That states will not be led by persons with expunged criminal records. That humiliating border inspections and customs barriers will disappear inside the territory of the former USSR. That new transport routes will help get rid of traffic jams, which have become real blood clots in the life of megacities. That human life will cease to be a meaningless trifle. That our SHIT GENERATION will redirect its energy from club dance floors to a creative direction. That love will triumph. Your seeker of lost time Vsevolod Nepogodin.
