In the late 1950s, Soviet photographer Vladimir Kuzakov captured these two gymnasts during a sports trip across the USSR.
Their confident gazes speak volumes about everyday life in the Khrushchev Thaw era, that brief window after Stalin’s death in 1953 when cultural restrictions eased and a new sense of possibility emerged.
A striking portrait of life under a changing regime.

@HSTemile @nonregemesse Oh thats fine then. A family of 6 being forced into living in a caravan on a beach because she wanted inflation down. I have no justification for hating her?

@arsebandit18 @nonregemesse Well if you live in a nice warm house today it would seem that the problems she caused were only short term.

Do left wing Welsh people hate Thatcher because she closed down mines which would have been closed down eventually because of Net Zero which they support?

A lover of Thatcher will never be a friend of Wales. They shall never break the Welsh working class 🏴

@HSTemile @nonregemesse ‘People hate Thatcher for no reason’ I gave you a reason.
What relevance is there for where I live now? Besides it was one of Blair’s mongy freebie policies that allowed my parents not to lose the house.

@arsebandit18 @nonregemesse And what kind of dwelling do you live in today?
English
@HSTemile @nonregemesse My grandparents and my father had to live homeless on a beach in a caravan because of Thatcher. If you are talking about for today's problems then the general failure of neo-liberalism which she championed is probably the reason.

@nonregemesse People hate Thatcher for no reason these days. She's just a folk villan or a boogeyman. In 500 years time people will think she literally was a witch. They'll tell their kids don't stay our after dark, else Margret Thatcher will get you!

xQc claims the Overwatch League was viewbotted to "hide" its real viewership and partly contributed to him quitting pro play "When I heard that, I'm already starting to organize my exit ... how am I going to market myself"

@arsebandit18 @Shadowed_Sun @comingupconnor Are you serious? You don’t like gaping holes? Are you even a man?

@PunishedFredda Just leave an eccentric Englishman to his own devices. People can't be characters anymore without moralising ma'ams attacking.

@Shadowed_Sun @comingupconnor Absolutely. Not aesthetically pleasing at all

@comingupconnor Good. That shit makes me question if I’m actually gay. Horrifically disgusting and vile

@markdtooley More respectful than actually fighting for the Confederacy.

He was actually “only” age 105 & an imposter who fabricated his war record for a pension & then unexpectedly lived so long that he became the “last” Civil War vet, trapped in a celebrity he hadn’t expected but couldn’t reject.

why not let them ride as women?? i swear to god this franchise got away with so much casual misogyny and exclusion of women when it isn’t even tolkien adherent like that lol this shit wouldn’t side today
Massimo@Rainmaker1973
Fun fact. In the Lord of the Rings films, most of the Riders of Rohan were actually women with fake beards because when the production put out a call for local experienced riders, a lot of women showed up with their own horses.

@arsebandit18 @goblincrash @my_MAIMAl @EPM108 Man, this does not hit. It's just cringe. You're so obsessed with the erroneous millennial angle you're talking like a boomer. And it doesn't actually distract from how embarrassing that misread was.
