Soviet adaptation of Sherlock Holmes. As a fun fact, Watson gets shot during the first Anglo-Afghan war, and Holmes deduces this using his method, although the location of the shot changes depending on the book or film. As far as I know, Afghanistan has never been changed for some other country, even remaining in the British TV Show 'Sherlock' (only this time it was the US invasion of said country), but here Holmes mentions that Watson was in "the East", probably because the film was released on 1979, very recently after the entry of Soviet forces into Afghanistan.

Holmes is opposed to the official police system of Scotland Yard, because the main thing for him is to help, not just to punish. This, it seems to me, is the secret of the enduring love of readers and viewers for Sherlock Holmes, the living personification of loyalty and reliability — qualities that people have always needed so much. That was the reason why we were so willing to work on these films.

— Igor Maslennikov, Aurora, July 1985

well, basically tik tok started recommending me a lot of videos about autism, adhd, audhd, aspergher's and that kind of thing more specifically. i started watching them and what they describe as 'symptoms' or whatever seem to match with a lot of things i tend to do. i then found a screening test which is used to see if a diagnostic is worth it (it's some kind of psichiatrically approved test) and my score was positive for asperghers. of course it doesn't mean anything because i need a professional but it got me thinking if maybe it is my own bias or if maybe i should try and seek professional help, a lot of my issues when it comes to my "professional" life i feel have been fucked up because of things that could be related to this, so that's what kind of bothers me, and also that maybe has impacted in some ways in my social life or social skills. but i dont know if maybe i'm just being dumb or not, so i'd like to know what it was for other comrades.

i started using it again to try to give some order into my life and since its open source and its kind of fun it would be nice if someone else uses it so we could create a guild

English translation:

Juan Perón Madrid, July 15, 1965 To Mr. President MAO TSE TUNG PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF CHINA

My dear President and friend:

From this difficult exile, I take advantage of the magnificent opportunity offered by the trip of the young Peronist leaders of the MRP, kindly invited by you, to bring you along with my most fraternal and friendly greetings, the expressions of our admiration for you, your Government and your Party; who have been able to lead the Chinese Nation to the achievement of so many important victories, which the capitalist world has already begun to recognize and accept.

Your thought and your words as a Revolutionary Master have penetrated deeply into the souls of the peoples who are struggling to liberate themselves and we who have been struggling, in these last ten years, in the marches and counter-marches typical of the process of a people, which is preparing the most favorable conditions for the final struggle. American Imperialism and its permanent allies -among them now, the current Soviet leaders- are mistaken when they think that with the deception of a false peaceful coexistence, they will be able to stop the march of these peoples thirsty for justice in pursuit of their liberation.

The example of PEOPLE'S CHINA, today the unshakable basis of the World Revolution, allows the men of the new generations to prepare themselves for the long struggle with more clarity and firm determination.

The nefarious action of Imperialism, with the complicity of the traitorous classes, have prevented us in 1955 from fulfilling the stage of the Democratic Revolution in order to prepare the working class for the full and subsequent realization of the Socialist Revolution. But from the defeat of that date, we have gathered great examples that allow us to prepare ourselves much more firmly, so that our people can take power and thus establish the era of government of the oppressed -the working class- the only one capable of carrying out a policy of peace and happiness for our people. Our objectives are common -that is why I welcome this contact of our fighters, with that great reality that you are.

I also have a version in Spanish if any comrades want to share it somewhere else.
