Is that sour cream in the soup on the top right… or mashed potatoe?
The media does a good job at representing Soviet Russia as a gloomy place where the laws are stricter than Saudi Arabia or the UAE. Even those countries manage to have have fun doing the same mundane things westerners do.

I always like to point out that the first woman in space was chosen in part because she had experience parachuting (as the space capsule at that time required you to bail out and parachute down on your own). Where did she get experience parachuting? In an “Aero Club” in Yaroslavl, which she joined while employed as a textile worker.
