Just occured to me… Fifteen years ago, never, ever there was a conversation regarding “what we all might be doing in ten or fifteen years time”
I just never had anyone to have such a conversation with and was always too smart to confide in random acquaintances.
I looked through the dictionary to find the word ofuda many a time, without success. Silly me! Turned out I forgot to take off the o- prefix, so it’s just “fuda” which means “token”.

К чему это они? Матриця?…
“Far, far away on the horizon, a giant complex of extremely odd buildings could be seen, built from components that would constantly shift against each other. The whole system very much resembled a meat grinder, made with a multitude of moving parts, even though it did not resemble one in shape, structure, nor even color or material, but nevertheless, there was something incredibly sinister in this eternal motion, tirelessly mechanical, not fitting a place people live in, some persistence, which should have been put to a better use.”
