«Our country is unpredictable». How the fuel crisis is being endured in a town reachable only by road transport

Beloozersk is one of the oldest cities of the Russian North.

Crying entrepreneurs as a symbol of Russian capitalism. What the strikes on Wildberries warehouses showed

After a series of massive strikes on Wildberries warehouses, hundreds of amateur videos with the same content appeared on social media: sellers, in tears, talk about multimillion losses and complain that the state offers them no help, while the marketplace’s payouts are incomparable to the damage suffered. In early July, Wildberries introduced a new version of its offer, recognizing drone attacks as force majeure — and is now no longer obliged to compensate sellers for losses. Economist Nikolai Kulbaka is convinced: all this is not the fault of one specific company, but a systemic pattern of modern Russian capitalism.

«Defend Yourselves.» In the Fifth Year of the War in Ukraine, Russia Has Lost Its Strategic Depth

The events of May 2026 have shown a significant shift in the balance of power on the fronts of the Russian-Ukrainian war. In fact, the two sides have reached parity. Yet, at the start of the full-scale war in 2022, Vladimir Putin did not consider Ukraine a significant opponent at all.

«Minotaur» by Andrey Zvyagintsev — the unofficial but undeniable favorite of the Cannes Film Festival

A gorgeous golden autumn somewhere in central Russia. September 2022. The war started six months ago, mobilization is underway, and people are confused. Those who are quicker, who have the means and the foresight, have already formed huge lines at Verkhny Lars. Meanwhile, in a luxurious villa on the lakeshore, a prosperous family lives — a successful entrepreneur, his beautiful wife, and their teenage son. The villa is beautiful and wealthy, but depressingly dull. Aside from the beauty of nature, everything here is boring. And despite the tender kisses of the characters, the air is poisoned by a lack of love. That distinct Russian lovelessness, which Zvyagintsev explored in his previous film and knows so well.

«I talk to ChatGPT every day, and for the first time in many years, life doesn’t feel so unbearable»

The surge of interest in artificial intelligence in Russia is happening against a backdrop of intense stress: people barely had time to recover from the pandemic before new problems arose—war and the state’s brazen intrusion into private life. At the same time, psychological help remains expensive: from 2,000 rubles per session in the provinces and several times more in the capital. There are still few qualified specialists, and in small towns and villages, often none at all.

«Their job is to motivate the new slave.» Why people join network marketing in 2026

Multi-level marketing has been known in Russia since the early 1990s, when major international players like Herbalife entered the market. In the early 2000s, local equivalents emerged. The Novosibirsk-based NL stands out from competitors due to its significant reputation: some employees say they encountered aggression and manipulation, while others say this is the only company where they found understanding and a source of income. To understand this phenomenon, a Most journalist tried to infiltrate the NL sellers’ community.

Every Fifth Job Opening Is in Sales. How the Labor Market Turns a Person into Sisyphus

Somewhere in a beautiful society of the future, which we will never see, the profession of sales manager will be classified as highly toxic, psychologically traumatic, and requiring rehabilitation after dismissal. Rehabs will open for former salespeople, and corporations will be required to pay them compensation for years spent in open-space offices where they were told: «If you didn't meet your KPI, you don't deserve love, lunch, health, or a roof over your head.»

Personal experience: a journalist goes to work at a cemetery

Khovanskoye Cemetery, January 27, two o'clock in the afternoon. A group of four people stands by a black minivan. They are dressed in identical black jackets and hats. Next to them, on metal trestles, is a four-sided coffin with no handles. People in work uniforms are nailing the base of the coffin. About 5 meters from the coffin—just one grave away—stand several gravediggers, ready to take the coffin in their hands and lower it into the grave. We only need to cover those 5 meters. But three out of the four people in black take turns falling, bumping the bottoms of the coffin into the grave fences. Only the fourth one managed to stay on his feet. That was me.
