I couldn't say it better than the first comment: "In about 5 minutes, director Sergei Bondarchuk and his production team captured the grandeur, the heroism, the tragedy, the EMOTION of the Napoleonic Era better than Ridley Scott could in 4+ hours." Modern movies suck.

I can't name a single song by Taylor Swift. Maybe I'm just ignorant, but how is it possible that she's the most famous artist of our time?

We should wordmaxx without mercy. Don’t believe 20. century propaganda that tells your gullible brain to dump down your speech for the comfort of the masses. Language is an instrument. Why play pop all the time, when you can create a symphony instead? Use strange and intricate words. Play with nuance and subtlety. Demand from your audience to occasionally stumble and use a dictionary. Yes, you can compress your speech and flatten it, like a Bauhaus facade. But believing that such as process causes no ontological loss of meaning is as naive as thinking that friction is a bug rather than a feature.

Today I noticed this meme that is circulating on normie social media . You wouldn't want 90s wages? Would you? Average annual income in 1990 was only 26,624 $. How poor, compared to modern times. Today's average annual income in the US is 62,200 $. But wait. Let's adjust for inflation. Average inflation has been 2,63 % since 1990. This would turn 26,624 $ into 66,100 $. And that's not the end of the calculation. The money supply M2 has been rising by 7% per year since 1990. This would turn 26,624 $ into 283,000 $. Suddenly buying property doesn't sound that expensive any more. image
