A great date starts with unexpected questions!
or how to take him by surprise

Could you kill me?

And if I turned out to be a man in the past, would you continue our date???

If your ex wrote a review about you on Avito, how many stars and what comment would she leave?

Were you married? Do you have children? Show me your passport.

Would you kiss me if I were a beaver?

Did you now unconsciously repeat my gesture or on purpose to make me feel safer next to you???

If you were furniture, would you want to be a decrepit sofa in the trash heap or a chair in which your grandfather farts?

The main thing is to ask these questions with an absolutely serious face. If he doesn't run away, it means our patient.

“There is no fullness without emptiness, baby.

Learn to love those days when everything stops. When you can’t be strong, decisive, collected. I call these days “kanska”, which means “maybe” in Faroese. When you can’t answer any of your questions definitively, you just remain silent, sleep, eat, or walk along an inconspicuous street until you feel better.

And it will definitely feel better. The heaviest downpours end in sunshine.”

Elchin Safarli “I want to go home”

Rene Magritte, “The Lovers”
This picture is often viewed as blind love. These two don't care about their partner. Only his idealized image.


What if this painting is about the isolation into which we drive ourselves?

When we seem ideal, we throw “I don’t know” out of our vocabulary, at a family dinner we pretend that our loved ones are adequate, although they are not, we ignore the obvious crisis with our boyfriend,

You can't feel life through this. Like the taste, the warmth of the lips, the smell of the other’s body.
It's stuffy.

“Bare face”, fragility, fatigue, cracks - our humanity.

if you think you want a lot, then remember: someone is getting an offer for the Empire State Building🤩


A marriage proposal on a spire is not a canon of true love! First of all, this is a high-budget professional performance. This is a show! The same as many that were organized by roofers.

Although really, how can you now rejoice at a ring in a restaurant from a simple Sasha, if people are proposed to LIKE THIS?!
It's romantic. Like a hero! I also want to go to prison later...

Therefore, we do not settle for less 💪🏼

Mortal danger, violations of the law, a cult location and a love story - everything our brain needs to remember.

The scale of madness is NOT proportional to the scale of feelings. But this is sold to us as absolute romance 🙄

For extreme sports enthusiasts, heights are their comfort zone, their work, and their method of monetization and content generation. For them, the proposal on the spire is an organic extension of their lifestyle.

Social networks break our inner support. They make us believe that ordinary, earthly manifestations of care are unworthy and small. If your boyfriend doesn't risk his life, doesn't rob a bank, doesn't hire an orchestra, does he love you any less?
Absolutely not.

Wanting ordinary things is ok!
Ordinary things are valuable.
separate news feed and real life

It’s normal to want to propose at home in the kitchen, in the park, in a familiar coffee shop, without cameras or helicopters. It's safe. It's about two people, not about a million-dollar audience on Instagram 😮‍💨


Real, deep human relationships are built in silence. Most often in simple, calm and predictable love.

🌚🌚What did you manage to read in June?🌚

Our favorites:

★ “1913. Summer of the whole century"
Chronicle of the last peaceful year on the eve of the First World War. A crazy period when the first version of Malevich’s “Black Square” was written, the first Prada boutique opened, Stalin came to Vienna illegally, and Hitler, on the contrary, left it.

10/10, but requires concentration, a lot of names and references

★ Recommendation from Alika –

I really liked Viktor Dashkevich’s detective series “Count Averin”. I love detective stories!

★ “In the name of such and such”, Linor Goralik
Reading is not for everyone. The real story of the evacuation of the Kashchenko mental hospital during World War II is intertwined with phantasmagoria and poetic fiction. The author prepared for writing this book for many years.

10/10, it takes courage to read

Work.
Accidentally fall in love with someone your age.
Find a place in the cycle of genocide.
Grow a tree
To have something to hang yourself with.
Raise a son
To have someone to hate.

Change
With every not very beautiful woman
To the person
Who is waiting for you at night from work.
Under a moldy voice
Celentano and ABBA
Suppress
desire to get drunk on Saturday.

Die
Like a Phoenix, in an office chair.
Or
In places designated for this by the company.
This is life.
Never cry if
It will suddenly seem
That something went wrong.

Do you want to change? Relax.
#in simple_words
about the paradoxical theory of change

The industry sells us change through blood, sweat and tears. Allegedly, only by overstraining oneself can one become a human being, not otherwise.

Transformations of the psyche occur when a person becomes who who he really is, and not when he tries to become who he is NOT.

Neither intentional attempts, nor coercion or persuasion, nor insights or interpretations produce change as much as simply refusing, at least for a while, to be someone you want to be in the future.

You don’t want to experience pain and avoid it?
it will be harder
Do you suppress anger at your parents, because everyone needs to be forgiven?
it will be harder
Do you deny the real state of your affairs?
it will be harder

AGAIN.
You will not change through deliberately trying to change. You will change when you try to be who you really are with all your feelings.

Pictures that bring good luck 🌚

Put it on your screensaver and this summer will be 10/10
