Я не знаю доподлинно, но большая часть сюжетов, в той или иной степени разыгрывающих #зомбиапокалипсис в массовой культуре (здесь я беру литературу, кино, компьютерные игры и продукты, находящиеся на стыке данных направлений), это: 1. вирус/химия ("Война миров Z", "Ходячие мертвецы", "28 дней спустя"); 2. паразит/гриб ("Один из нас", "Заноза", "Штамм"); 3. воздействие супернатурального ("Зловещие мертвецы"). Нет, возможно (ВОЗМОЖНО), есть и другие представители, но, как можно видеть, третья группа зомбей в меньшинстве...

Если честно, то меня несколько обескуражил результат поисковой выдачи Google по запросу "Виктор Сорокин". Вместо известного на всю Россию художника поисковик выдаёт мне некоего нонейма, солиста Кубанского казачьего хора. Допускаю, что данный человек весьма известен, однако, его творчество прошло мимо меня, соответственно, не могу судить о нём, ни хорошо, ни плохо.

Winter is a good time of year. I would even say it is the best. It's brighter at night, brighter during the day (often so much so that you can't leave the house without goggles).

There hasn't been this much snow this year in a long time. I do not take into account a couple of snowstorms which did not make any weather, because the snow compacted, blown away or melted almost immediately...

I saw the movie "The Devil Wears Prada" once. I've seen quite a few movies like that, and in them the main characters are told, for all their sobs and sighs, "you have to work". I see it as a Soviet "Glory to Labor!" put on the rails of the capitalist model. In other words, work hard, have a career, fight hard, and so on. But nowadays we see a somewhat different social philosophy. Why should we evaluate a person based on his achievements? Man is cool by himself, by the fact of his existence. Being born is already worthy of respect...

Malfunctions of any device are always a surprise. I understand that if a particular device is old, with a warranty period expired, then you always expect some kind of trouble from it. But it happens all of a sudden. That's what happened this time, too. This morning, after starting the computer to continue working on the project, I went to make my own coffee, feed the cats, and see if I needed help around the house. When I came back about 5 minutes later, I expected to see the familiar pattern of...
