Hi,
This is Marshal Konev, a ghost from SE.com past, coming back to these haunts. It has probably been a good 11 to 12 years since I posted meaningfully on this site; the drudgery of adult life and raising a family in a vicious, capitalist world do get in the way. That drudgery is of course still there, but I hope to be on every now and then to contribute, and see how perspectives have changed here. Othereise, glad to be back!

Welcome back, but boy are you in for a surprise!
It's less of an empire here nowadays, and more of a waiting room for a backstreet abortion. What conversation there is generally takes place in Cafe Mir, btw. Good to see you back though. It's nice when past members drop-in. Now what is this…

Thanks. Yeah, I see now from how stale most of the topics have become. It is a bit sad, considering how many things are going on around the world. We should change the magazines in the waiting room a bit...

It is an honour and a privilege to have such an esteemed member of our tiny empire back.
Allow me to introduce myself; I am Yeqon of Slavic and Levantine Arabian blood, die-hard defender of the legacy of the world's first socialist state, Marxist through and through. I'm also a great lover of the arts, nature, and the fairer sex. Contrary to Comrade Szabo, I put my faith in the fact that a bonafide Hero of the Soviet Empire has returned to us, a testament to the invincibility and immortality of this site. Comrade Marshal Konev, Welcome Home.   The great art of life is sensation, to feel that you exist, even in pain. 04 Jan 2020, 22:11
Oh my goodness, what a pleasant surprise! Yes, welcome back Marshal Konev!

Welcome back, comrade.

Glad to have you back on board, Marshal!
