after getting into aliexpress wristwatch brands for couple of years and having now a small collection, beside few pieces of vostok watches, the only watch i will ever spend money on again is accutron and bulova moon watch. watches are so boring to me now that it would have to be somewhat interesting piece for me to want it.
if a country is a company, then the politicians are the c-level managers, government workers are the low level management, citizens/voters are the employees with top management voting rights and the board of directors are the owners whom answer only to themselves. also the employees think they are the owners and think that because they can vote for the c-level management position, they somehow decide how the company is run when in reality BoD makes decisions and management only executes them.
@TenaciousGoat https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2025/01/13/statement-from-president-joe-biden-on-approving-student-debt-cancellation-for-over-5-million-americans/ i am guessing they are interpolating 5M debtors. if they forgave 187B to 5M, that is 37k per person. quite realistic math.
@nomebullyyou i get what you mean. because no matter how the people present themselves today, you know who they really are and sometimes it's funny seeing someone posturing whilst you know very well how much of a pussy the are :D
@nomebullyyou law sounds like something whom you've described would match quite well. so not much of a surprise.
@nomebullyyou is there some hidden wisdom i am supposed to get? :D
i've learnt only today that the hobbits in LOTR got paid only $250k for all three movies and got zero residuals from merch sales due to no earnings/sales. i think bilbo got 1M after renegotiating and gandalf got paid 12M. if i were them, i would not be going to the comicons. waste of time and money.
replacing paganism, which was polytheism, with christianity, which is monotheism, was most likely done just to control people. it is easier to control people through aggregation rather than having to split your forces to each individual group. in short, every single time people are being aggregated under single umbrella, it is purely for the purpose of controlling them. even countries are essentially that - a group of people controlled by a small clique of powerful rulers.

Because you still have hope that this war will end with your honor intact. Stand in the ashes of a trillion dead souls, and ask the ghosts if honor matters. The silence is your answer.
