A nurse from the Moscow region won 16 million rubles — about $200,000 — in the lottery thanks to a vision board.
She kept it in a visible spot: on her refrigerator. The board showed her longtime dream — owning a house.
She now plans to spend the winnings on building one.

A woman has apparently turned her apartment building backyard into a pigeon buffet.
First, she orders 40 bags of grain straight to her apartment — no exaggeration. Then she throws the food out the window with a scoop.
But the real nightmare starts after that: every day, seagulls fly in to hunt the pigeons feeding there. They catch them, finish them off, and eat them.
Now the whole courtyard is covered in droppings, feathers, grain, and dead birds.

A whole pirate ship is on sale in Russia for just 1.5 million rubles ($19k).
It is actually a 1,700-square-foot house in Udmurtia, complete with a deck, hold, and masts — basically a place where you can live out your “Blackbeard” fantasy.

Russia is being asked to recognize the incel movement as extremist.
Vitaly Borodin, head of the Federal Project on Security and Anti-Corruption, said he will ask the Prosecutor General’s Office to give the movement a legal assessment.
He claims incel ideology contradicts “traditional values” and should be checked, including for possible foreign funding.
Incels are “involuntary celibates” — mostly men who blame women and society for their lack of romantic or sexual relationships. Some online incel communities have been linked to misogyny and extremist rhetoric.
Vitaly Borodin is a Russian pro-government activist known for filing complaints and demanding checks against artists, bloggers, and public figures. His group, FPBK, stands for the Federal Project on Security and Anti-Corruption.

Jesus Christ has died of alcoholism in Tatarstan.
A Russian man with that legal name died in his apartment. Shortly before his death, a court had ordered him to restore his previous name — Evgeny Petrovich Chekulaev — because he had multiple convictions for robbery and armed robbery, and his new name was deemed offensive to believers.
In the end, he never managed to complete the name change.

VR-assisted childbirth has started being used in Russia, according to Baza.
The technology is already being introduced in state maternity hospitals. During contractions, women in labor are given VR glasses showing relaxing landscapes — the sea, forests, sunsets, and mountains — helping shift the brain’s focus away from pain and anxiety.

Russians should pray before going on vacation, lawmaker Mikhail Ivanov has urged.
“We should not ask God for a vacation; we should ask for a blessing for our rest. Then the Lord will arrange things so that your boss grants the vacation, and the trip goes without incidents or tragedies. You should pray to the Lord Jesus Christ and the Most Holy Theotokos,” he said.
