Dear Diary,
What an outrage! Take a look at this newspaper clipping.

JOSEPH STALIN ABOLISHES ZHENOTDEL!

After male communists complaints and several citizens writing in to their government, Joseph Stalin abolishes Zhenotdel, a women's department in Russian government. We could not get Comrade Stalin to comment on the issue himself, but a communist party insider tells us, "Zhenotdel was a waste of time and money, women don't need to be in government. Comrade Stalin has made the right choice." Keep reading Communist Post to stay updating on this story.

I guess I set my hopes up too high. Turns out Communist Women's Liberation has it's limitations too. As well as my new employed job across the street, I'm still having to manage all the housework and childcare on my own because, according to my husband it's a "women's job". The work load is coming in by the truckloads, there is no hope for us women in the near future.

Until Tomorrow,

Day 6: Friday 1989

Dear Diary, We have created a weapon, a nuclear one that is. Though I do not know the exact details, between the US and the USSR, we have around 60,000 nuclear weapons at hand and we are afraid to use them against each other. Both of us have a clear understanding of how much damage these weapons can do. We have started using small third-world countries to fight our battles, and so has the United States, which is beginning to be known as the Cold War. Those countries do not seem to be enjoying being "used as pawns" much and have began to fight against us. Some choose to remain neutral, while others have been trying to manipulate the US against us. All this drama that's been going on has been getting to my head! My, it really is not good for the children either, and I haven't spoken to my husband in a few days. I'm glad this week is almost over, I deserve a break. Until Tomorrow, Anna ♡

Day 4: Wednesday 1941

Dear Diary, The Terror has begun. The USSR has fallen to a state of paranoia! Many of our fellow citizen's are being sentenced to Gulags, harsh labor camps, because they are thought to be trying to restore capitalism! How am I supposed to know who to trust, who should I believe?! Men are being shot on the streets, almost one million people already! And it's not just Party members who are being shot, ordinary people are too. Just last night, a dear friend of ours, Tim, was shot but a secret police member after the accused him of being a secret capitalist. They didn't even give the man a second to explain himself. One second he was alive, the other he was dead. Oh, I don't want to think about it anymore! The length people will go to get people to agree with them is outrageous. One day, I hope to see a world were we can all get along. Until Tomorrow, Anna♡

Day 2: Monday 1919

Dear Diary, The USSR Communist Party has set up Zhenotdel, the Women's Department in government, that is pushing a feminist agenda! Oh, I knew the day would come. Our party has also developed "women's liberation" which deems women full, legal and political equality, what a time to be alive! This new women's liberation enables women legal divorce, abortion, pregnancy leave and the ability to work for money. My husband will be so pleased when he comes home to hear the news. My mother would have been so happy if she was still alive, she always knew this day would come and I have not given up since. My life will be changing drastically from this point forward. Goodbye housework, hello job! The extra money will be good for our children's future as well. Although they are only boys, they are both growing fast and there is barely enough food in this house to satisfy them. Until Tomorrow, Anna ♡
