Visa Nightmare: Missing Documents
60sRelatable frustration with bureaucratic visa processes and unexpected requirements resonates widely.
▶ Play ClipThe video is a casual stream where the host discusses various topics including visa application frustrations, Twitch drama, tabletop role-playing game clubs as businesses, neural network-generated content (neuroslope), and personal experiences with lending money to friends.
The host describes issues with visa document submission, including outdated checklists, missing requirements like copies of Russian documents and translations, and photo specifications (ears must be visible, no earrings).
New conflicts on Twitch involve legal issues like being charged, declared foreign agents, or jailed for terrorism, contrasting with past bot-related disputes.
The host argues that tabletop role-playing game clubs are not profitable; they are passion projects. Even a computer club would bring more profit. The Living Ruo Studio is large but not a money-making venture.
The host mentions having aphantasia, making it hard to visualize scenes, which is why tabletop RPGs are not for them.
The host criticizes low-quality neural network-generated content (neuroslope) on social media, noting that many people use AI without customization, leading to generic posts.
The host advises against going on a stream with Mafanya and Khovansky due to offensive jokes, suggesting one-on-one with Khovansky would be fine.
Discussion about a streamer who lost a million in investments and may not be able to pay off an installment plan. The host notes their own investments are down 100,000.
The host shares their philosophy: lend only what you can afford to lose. They lent money to a friend for training, which led to a job, and they are happy even if not repaid.
The video covers a range of personal anecdotes and opinions, from bureaucratic hassles to the economics of niche hobbies and the ethics of AI-generated content, ending with reflections on friendship and money.

06:51[00:03] It seems like only half a day has passed, and I'm already fed up. We went today to submit our visa documents. When I was filling out the visa application, yes, I had already signed up for everything, everything was awesome. Here. And they sent me a letter that yes, yes, on
[00:17] such-and-such a day, at such-and-such a time, you have an appointment at the VFS. Here is a checklist of the documents you need to take with you. We just walked, [ __ ] hell. First, [ __ ], second, third, fourth. All. They printed out even more than necessary. What do you think? We
[00:32] came, naturally, and we were missing something, because it turns out that the document they sent was an old document. There is still a lot that is not written there. This checklist, what they sent, it turns out that not everything was listed there yet
[00:44] . That is, for example, it was not indicated there that we needed to take copies of our Russians. It turns out we also had to translate this into English. Plus I have a photo that I took. It doesn't
[00:57] fit because, it turns out, the photo is for tires, and your ears should be visible. That's how it is. Here. Right here, right here. Yes, even that doesn't fit. Just like that, just like that . And earrings are still not allowed. And I had to
[01:12] take more photos there. Yeah, [ __ ] your mother. Luckily, we at least paid extra to have firstly, our queue would be shorter, because, damn, it’s a workday, Anton actually has to work. And plus, we want them to print all of this out for us right there, so that
[01:25] we can give it to them directly and that’s it. They're like, " Go ahead and print it out yourself." Okay, at least that's it. Today, when I went to take photos for my visa, there was some Filipino boy there, well, I don’t know, he
[01:39] could have been 40 years old, yes, but Asians often look very young . But in general he looked like , I don’t know, a twenty-year-old guy, you from Russia by any chance? I say: "From Russia." He says: "And you are just
[01:53] always very white, just like snow." He also said that Russians have only two eye colors. Either very light blue or very dark blue. Come on, tell us what's going on with Kyivstoner. New muti-actions have started on
[02:09] Twitch. Yes, yes. Remember when the main conflicts and showdowns on Twitch were, you know, who has what bots, how many bots who has, I don’t know who got caught using bots, and now, damn,
[02:23] who’s been charged, who’s been declared a foreign agent, who’s going to jail for terrorism. What [ __ ] times these are. By the way, about Kyiv Stoner. Here Sas was on the satellite this morning, visiting Kyiv Seleps to Azov soldiers for photo opportunities. [ __ ], I
[02:39] was in Kyiv way in advance. I was there in 2018 . It's so hard to get banned from you. It's worth spelling a word incorrectly among people with twenty online. Permach. So sweet. times when it's easy to get banned. For example, when I'm super-mega-ly, yeah,
[02:54] I have some kind of PMS, and then you for example, and you say, [ __ ], it's pain, [ __ ], never sing again and don't drink,
[03:06] [ __ ]. And after you drink, don't sing. So why the hell do I need to ban someone with a permanent ban? Well, if he's really that idiotic . Well, he's a idiot, he's a idiot. I accept that people can be idiots. [music] By the way,
[03:20] and streamers landing on Vika by opening some kind of offline business. Aren't you thinking about doing something like that, getting involved? Mikhail, let me tell you something about tabletop role-playing game clubs. This is not a profit. You have to understand that
[03:35] this is not a way to make money. People do this because they love what they do. And that's all. They won't earn any money from this that they can live on. They have quite a large team there. They have many masters, yes. They are
[03:48] , in principle, Living Rруo Studio - it is a fairly large studio. It's not it is a fairly large studio. It's not about money, it's about something for the soul. Essentially, a business is something that will bring you some tangible money.
[04:10] I'm sure they'll turn a profit, but it's not such a profit as to call it a bunch of 'freaks'. I think they'll turn a profit pretty quickly over time because because they did most of the work themselves. I don't think they
[04:24] they did most of the work themselves. I don't think they they'll turn a profit, 100%, but it seems to me they won't make enough money to, you know, just live on it . Even a computer club
[04:37] would bring in more profit, yes, essentially, yes. That is, these people do this because they love doing it, they are passionate about their work. It's something that brings them pleasure and that they want to spread, right? That is,
[04:50] they simply want to popularize this, essentially. But not everything that is popular in a particular niche brings in a lot of money. In Moscow, games are played at the D20 club. One game costs about 2 thousand rubles. Well, I think it's about the same for them.
[05:04] There are like 1,700, somewhere around 1,800 I looked on their website, but they have a lot of games listed. They have several themed rooms there. Here. several themed rooms there. Here. Well, that is, like, well, 1,700, yes, 1,500.
[05:20] Well, that is, like, well, 1,700, yes, 1,500. And this is the current schedule of games.
[05:41] Well, in short, their rooms, you know, are different. There's an apartment there, you know, there's this little window there. The rug hangs like this, every mansion of
[05:53] perylok, a sanctuary. Well, that is, to , because it still seems to me that to a certain extent I have a certain state of my [ __ ] brain, which is called
[06:07] aphantasia, when it’s very difficult for me to keep visual images, you know, in my head. I can imagine something, but it will be something like, you know, more like outlines than a straight picture. For example, they tell you
[06:21] something there, I don’t know, imagine an ancient forest there, yes, everything there is in fog, in moss, and all that. You have a picture drawn in your head, yes, but for me it seems to appear for a second and disappear. And I kind of have to, you know,
[06:37] imagine it again later. For one second, a picture might appear in my head and that’s it. That's why tabletop role-playing games are not for me at all. Iishka developed over 2 years. The neuroslopes have arrived. Because you
[06:51] order so many neuroslopes from me on Vova, I'm already sick of this neural network voice. I perceive neuroslope. For example, here are Vakh songs. I don't know why, but they have some kind of super vibe. I even
[07:05] notice neuroslope in posts now. Well, the neuroslope in the posts is a super-fucked neuroslope. These are the ones who don’t know how to use neural networks at all, those who, you know, haven’t customized them for themselves. Those who, most likely, even, well, you
[07:18] neural networks, write me a text on such-and-such a topic and that's it, and they copy it for no reason. This really pissed me off, especially at first. Nowadays, most people, those who write at least some posts on the Internet, have already learned to covertly
[07:31] use neural networks. VK is full of shitty neuroslope. Water in style is that moment when [ __ ] this is [ __ ] nuts. Also, on one foreign forum with leaks, the entire section was deleted. And the admins said that there were too many neroslops. This is
[07:45] getting out of control. Lawyers for popular celebrities have been complaining, and the perform neuroslobodism on people without their consent. That's how it is now, wait, what was it like there? This is how democracy dies under the noise of
[08:01] the crowd, [ __ ], or whatever it was? Did you grumble in the chat yourself? You had something with the streamers there too. So, I say, I grumbled, because, you know, like Irina boobs or beans, well, like neural network boobs. And I don’t know, they
[08:15] suddenly they don’t like it, because I’m saying, guys, you don’t really understand what it’s like to be a [ __ ] girl in copper. That's when everyone tries to draw you boobs and dick. So, hello. I was invited to a stream with Mafana and Khovansky.
[08:30] What should you be wary of? I don't recommend going. Knowing you, you are a person with a very sensitive mental structure. You shouldn't communicate, there will always be jokes below the
[08:43] belt. In short, Sasha, honestly, for example, with Khovansky, well, roughly speaking, one-on-one or with Khovansky as part of some, for example, show at Oktor, it would be absolutely fine, but Mafanya - that's beyond the
[08:57] tolerance zone, let's say . Well, or at Sined's, yes, it would have been fine there with Khovansky. That is, Yura, when he is adequate in some situation, he is normal, but with Mafanisi, God gives him a
[09:13] thrashing. If we invite some [ __ ] porridge there, it Bean saying that she was down a million in investments , or something. And she was counting on
[09:25] this money to pay off the installment plan. Wait, how much the [ __ ] did she invest to be down a million ? I wanted to see how much I had in investments. I have minus 100,000 there, probably somewhere around here for the whole time, but they are
[09:39] probably somewhere around here for the whole time, but they are 1,000 years old. It's just that Russian stocks can easily go down -50-70%, yes, but still, to get to -50, you need to invest like two get to -50, you need to invest like two million. No, wait, invest 150, uh, 1,000 million is
[09:51] million. No, wait, invest 150, uh, 1,000 million is With a good investment outcome, she wants to invest four million in an apartment. Three on average, two on bad. I think there was some math like that on the stream. That's it, I don't
[10:06] understand a [ __ ] thing. Well, in short, you need to understand how much she threw and when she threw it. The ambassador said that at this rate she wouldn't be able to pay off her installment plan by the end of the year and would have to go to the porch. Yeah, [ __ ], he'll borrow from someone and that's it. My God, what's
[10:20] the problem, that she, [ __ ], is in streamer circles. We all know that streamers earn at least 10,000 billion per month . Will you lend me some? You don't need it anyway. You've been saying for 2 years now that you're taking out a mortgage. They called from the
[10:34] bank today; the municipality was supposed to send them some kind of paper yesterday so that the send them some kind of paper yesterday so that the bank would give us a mortgage. But the municipality didn't send it. They promised to send it today. I don't know whether they sent it
[10:51] or not, because the working day is already over. According to her, Adaliwada has always been hers and not a single bastard has ever returned it. Ah, it was a loan. I thought Adalivada. It would have been a beautiful name, but that
[11:08] means Adaliva gave the wrong day, well, the wrong people money. I don’t know, even Lyokha gave me the money. Yes, after about six years, but nevertheless I gave it years. He
[11:20] gave back the same amount he took. You've lost a lot. So, essentially, do you understand? Here I have a circle of my close people, yes, here is my family and closest friends. And if I lend them money, I
[11:34] keep in mind that they will, in principle, not give it back to me in any form. That's why I only lend the amount that I don't mind. part forever. He borrowed it from me to take training in, I don't know
[11:49] in short. And thanks to the fact that he completed this training, he now works as some kind of sound engineer, let's say, I don't know what it's called, at Moonfish, which was made by Atomichark, right? That is, I am happy that thanks to my help, a
[12:04] enough for me. I don't need any [ __ ] percentages, that's all. I say: "I didn't even think that he would give me the money at all . He gave it to friends, too, with whom I wouldn't be sorry to part forever." Well, no, like, if Lyokha hadn’t
[12:18] returned me, I wouldn’t have, you know, broken off our friendship, roughly speaking. That is, again, for me it wouldn’t be something shitty. [ __ ], I [ __ ] [laughs]
[12:31] my friend came into Telegram and wrote: "[ __ ], I came to your stream during the warm-up about debts and just remembered." Write where, [ __ ]. Wait, when? Since 2020. That's
[12:48] it, we wish you happiness, love, luck, health, and money. Ibi . Yes, baby.
