Menshikov and blackout
Description:
Yes, we know this guy as a brilliant crook and bribe-taker, whose fortune was estimated in the country’s budget for a year and a half, a narcissistic narcissist who was choking on his own greatness, an illiterate prude who barely displayed his own signature. In general. This name usually causes us a slight disapproving, but a little envious smile. And for some reason, we never talk about his iron courage and superpower in any situation to be on top. When this person at one moment lost everything: his fortune, palaces, awards and regalia, “friends” who squabbled in front of him yesterday, the future and, most importantly, hope, and was exiled together with his family to Berezov (where 12 months of the year is winter, the rest of summer), then his firmness of spirit is manifested in full measure. On the way to the “eternal settlement” they were attacked by good locals for the purpose of merry reprisals (But people very quickly pass from sheep’s trepidation before the power of a predator to merciless cruelty before the same predator, only wounded and exhausted). And Menshikov barred his wife and children, with his finger pulled away the pitchforks and rogates, saying: “Kill me, but do not touch them!” And from the sound of his voice, the determined guys never dared to do it. He was depressed, but not broken. And Berezov? Where you can go crazy with the cold just going out into the waterclose, not like living there for years. What's he doing? It works. Building a house, building a church! Church! Can you imagine? He teaches his children what he teaches. A man who has completely lost everything from money and home to hope says, “I was born in poverty, in poverty and I will die.” I mean, life goes on! A friend of mine recently lost his job. That's a job no better than a thousand other managers. He almost went crazy! Okay, life's over. I'm irrevocably poisoned, I'm gonna go do some suicide. Yeah, we shredded. I don’t know what would happen if the internet were turned off, which is the worst possible disaster! Menshikov was lucky - he just didn't have a smartphone. If I were, I wouldn't be harassed. All right, one day, we need to stock up on some new passit and cookies. And maybe blackout will not be so scary.
