    Dishes, but they’re all wood, and no running water 😬

    I read a book on Stalinist-era Soviet sanitation systems earlier this year, and let me tell you, just the description of lugging water from the local pump up to one’s apartment to do dishes, laundry, cook, etc, sounded absolutely miserable

      Ugh, that was probably awful. But on the other hand, their youtube probably wasn’t full of ads if they couldn’t afford premium! ;)

      (Personally, as a lazy modern first worlder I have a feeling everything of mine would’ve just been filthy as an alternative to all the effort.)
