Why do people dress so badly? 10% of men are fashion obsessed and push for personal style while 90% of men retreat into comfort because nothing has replaced the suit, which solved male fashion without effort Until a new male uniform emerges we’re stuck https://lindynewsletter.beehiiv.com/p/why-do-we-dress-so-badly

A lot of Europeans are broke. They make 2-3-4 thousand a month. Rent is expensive They don't actually do things. That costs money. They just talk to each other. About what? Their problems. Everyone has problems. So that's their entertainment.

I went to Charlotte once. It's the epitome of a shitty american southern city. A few corporations in the downtown. A core of affluent white surrounded by a sea of black people. It's not really walkable, it's not very comfortable but it has modern amenities. bulldoze it and start over

They are already reporting that the general strike is a failure in France It's not 1968 anymore Those days are over

Things are going to get weird soon. There are going to be millions of Americans retiring with a lot of cash. The problem is America is incredibly expensive now. Southern Europe is dirt cheap in comparison. And they need money to pay for all the pensions and social welfare. We may soon be seeing America towns in Europe.

This is basically the style of Van Gogh He answered the question of what if we took a very talented painter and gave him schizophrenia.

if trump was in the epstein files, biden would have released them. Biden tried to put trump in jail. he isn't above releasing confidential files. He's not in the epstein file. What is probably in the epstein files is an incredible amount of israeli activity. Just an overwhelming amount. And since this administration's stated goal is to protect israel, by deporting immigrants criticizing israel, shaking down colleges that allow pro palestinian activities and generally being slavish to the israeli state, this is the most likely reason why they are not getting released. it is what it is

Slow wifi really fits southern europe. it's hot out. people are walking slower. everyone in sandals and shorts. lunch is 2 hours. The web page takes time to load.

Elons new party is going to cut Medicare and social security to save the American budget.

In return he's going to give you the keys to a tiny house built by his robots. Free.

Its going to be the old vs the young

Will you vote for him?

Same logic that goes with chasing innovation. You can innovate to worse situations. Once you have something that works, innovation only makes it worse.

For the first time in Roman History, Caligula decided to enact a tax on sex-worker’s fees. A high number, between 17-70 percent, when other taxes were very low.

It became the most profitable revenue generator in the Roman Empire

Some cities never bothered to switch to LEDs, like Lisbon. Which makes the city look great night

Even if re-industralization happens, it doesn't mean that cities will come back. Most Americans prefer yards and accumulating things in a big house. I don't know if they will go back to apartments in Montgomery Alabama or Toledo Ohio.

Americans are a suburban people, for the most part.

Other people around the world tend to be city people. comfortable with density.
