Found some information about буйнакская street. Ullubiy Danilovich *Buynaksky* (August 27 (September 8), 1890 - August 16, 1919) was a revolutionary leader in Dagestan at the beginning of the 20th century.

There is a town in Dagestan called Buynaksk. So this street is probably named after that city or leads to a road which leads to that city. The town is famous in Russia because during Chechen wars there was a huge terrorist attack. The whole 5-storey house (пятиэтажка) full of Russian soldiers was blown up in 1999. 64 people died (incl. 23 children).

i wish someone loved me as much as bald loves the Soviet Era.

My heart literally raced when i saw his image on the video that i had to comment this, i'm sorry if i spelled anything wrong. #ЦОЙЖИВ!

Yo, i'm from Kalmykia. It's in the southern part of Russia, really chill place. The region is surrounded in steppes, kinda hot during summer. There are quite a few interesting places to see, such as the giant buddhist temple, Hurul, the Chess City, the tulip festival sometime during late spring. Also it's not too hard to find locals to get piss drunk with. I suggest visiting it in sometime in May, or just YOLO it and go there during winter to see the frozen steppes. It's quite a sight.
