Taking a compulsory break
0Hello again.
I did promise to talk to you all, Watchers and Commenters, if I had to leave for an unspecified amount of time because of any reason.
Today is the day the promise sees its fulfillment.
This video won't be age-restricted compared to two other controversial ones, but I'm still not giving the ability to comment or dislike here, sorry
TL;DR version of video's information:
====
---- drafters in the country i live in (russia) made legal avoidance of conscription almost impossible without some truly exceptional luck or connections... guess because of what!
====
---- i'm forced to become an aspirant - i really didn't want to go this route (because aspirantship requires you having intense academic interest and brains which i don't have) but this is the only legal way now for those who didn't serve before to lower draft chances - and that costs astronomical loads of money, so finding AND securing a work is critical; and i have a timelimit for aspirantship which is closing on faster than the ethereals moving their avatar project forward
====
---- combining them both will leave me with just barely enough time and mood to enjoy myself, much less record; in order to not go crazy i had to evaluate what has to go for the time being - and video deployment, despite me enjoying it, is something that i just can't afford to do with that horseload of a schedule
====
additional stuff i need to add about not wanting to be drafted:
---- before the obvious events i didn't want to go there because of really awful situations revolving around the conscripts; but from 2014 (highly intensifying in 2022) and forward its also because of moral, bloodline and personal reasons
PS: wars in video games are enjoyable because you can take a role in virtual world - you don't harm anyone outside, you can do weird stuff, you can just explore the levels or terrains if you want while listening to good music
real world ones are exactly the opposite of that, bound to break your own world view and childhood morals; practising cult of war IRL in positive light is especially a tragedy
