Modern phones are optimized for passive entertainment and no longer come with the necessary attachments to do real work like carpentry and harvesting wheat.
They don’t make em like they used to.

Well the USSR was a democracy, not a monarchy. Malenkov became party head briefly because it was uncertain on how party Secretariat would be appointed, that’s true. He would have been presumably who Stalin would have preferred. But the central Soviet didn’t much care for Malenkov, so they formally elected Krushchev a few months later.

Who needs a succession plan when you’ve got the corn boy.
A great lesson to apply to all sorts of organizations. You actually have to put in time and effort to develop people and have someone capable and popular to hand projects over to.
Well it would’ve been better to let him retire after the war.

I’m old enough to know what it feels like to actually hang up on someone when you get pissed enough
I can only imagine smashing the whole phone with that hammer, hope they made a few replacement parts
I remember aggressively slamming the phone down after dealing with a shithead. Very satisfying. I haven’t done that for over 20 years.
I wouldn’t be surprised if Stalin put this in a display case or something, instead of actually using it as his phone.
I was recently at a restaurant, sitting at the bar, and some guy was having a heated argument on the phone and slammed his cellphone on the bar as he hung up. I thought he would regret that because he probably fucked up his phone. But, no, dude answered the phone again, yelled, hung up, and slammed his phone again two more times!
Truly the only loser, no matter the circumstances.
Maybe it’s because I’m old and I didn’t realize it but I don’t think this would make you very old
this is ideal phone to readjust fetterman politics
This is the phone you use to contact Bat-Comrade
(approvingly) Saturday morning cartoon villain telephone. The type of phone you use to order henchmen or blackmail the UN or get bad news and then crush the globe that holds the rotary
Damn missed opportunity to gift a spoon shaped telephone.
Damn, this makes me want a landline.
fucking hardcore. mind the sickle though when you pick it up. i hope they didn’t sharpen it (it looks sharp!!)
That is the most baller phone I have ever seen.
somebody calls this phone
