Поймал себя на том, что иногда мне нравится ездить на автомобиле, а иногда нет. Понятно, что чилить на автостраде это прикольно, а пробиваться через городские пробки — нет. Но я осознал, что иногда мне в городе вполне прикольно, а иногда нет. Я даже в пробках иногда стою спокойно.
Начал рефлексировать, и понял: мне приятно ездить, когда я никуда не тороплюсь. Когда можно опоздать на 5-10-15 минут, а то и на полчаса. В гости к друзьям обычно можно опоздать. В магазин можно опоздать, если ты не под закрытие едешь. А вот если едешь на какое-то мероприятие ко времени, то опаздывать нельзя, и обычно даже 10 минут неприятны.
Дорожная ситуация меняется не слишком предсказуемо. Время на поиск места парковки тоже не определено. Да и постоянное искушение где-то что-то нарушить, чтобы не опоздать. Либо наоборот — выезжаешь на машине сильно заранее, и на месте просто ждёшь полчаса.
В общем, машина хорошо решает задачу "Добраться куда-то в место, плохо доступное другими видами транспорта". Но не слишком хорошо решает задачу "Добраться куда-то к заданному моменту с точностью плюс-минус 5 минут". А, например, пешком + метро решает хорошо. Можно, конечно, пофантазировать на тему какого-то предсказания и правильного планирования, но на деле пара забитых перекрёстков вполне могут стоить вам 10 минут, что в контексте городской жизни довольно много.
P.S. Скоро у меня отпуск, и будут очень интересные посты про дроны и мототехнику. Хотя погода в Питере как обычно норовит подвести в самое неподходящее время. С таким климатом хоть на автомобиле езди!

🇷🇺❤Today marks a monumental chapter in my journey, as I proudly announce that I've become a Russian citizen and participated in my very first election here.
This significant step is more than just a formal process; it symbolizes my deep connection and commitment to my new home, its people, and its future. As I stood in the polling station, casting my vote, I was overwhelmed with a sense of responsibility and belonging.
This act of civic engagement is a powerful reminder of the role we each play in shaping the course of our community and nation. It's a day filled with emotions - pride, hope, and anticipation for what lies ahead.
Joining my fellow citizens in this democratic process, I felt a strong bond of unity and shared purpose. Here's to embracing new beginnings, contributing to the collective future, and making every moment count in this beautiful journey.

Documentation News:
In Moscow, two men who failed to register for military service were stripped of their citizenship
This was reported on the Telegram channel by the official representative of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs Irina Volk.
Volk recalled that, in accordance with Russian law, every man with acquired citizenship must register for military service within two weeks. Violators face punishment.
Our advise to members:
1. Comply with local laws. Register for military service if you are of draft age and have acquired citizenship.
2. Similarly, if you are of draft age and have no plans to register for military service, then you should consider not applying for citizenship.
Like the popular saying goes, you can't eat your cake and have it.

The Chairman of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation, Alexander Bastrykin, stated that more than 30 thousand migrants who recently received Russian citizenship and did not register for military service were "caught" in the country, about 10 thousand of them were sent to the special operation zone.
Along with citizenship, according to him, they received "not only rights, but also a constitutional obligation to protect the country that accepted them."
“Comrades, digging trenches and creating fortifications requires really good working hands. Today they are joining the ranks of our rear units that are building these fortifications.” he said.
Migrants seeking citizenship must bear this in mind.
