Depends where you go, there clearly is a periphery to Europe that has a lot of misery like Greece since the IMF fucked it up. In all core countries there is poverty at certain places but overall it's less dumbfounding than the US from what I've seen in the media

Subscription-based MMO are kinda renting a virtual place when you think about it. Although creating a big game like this at least requires labor, unlike mindless speculation on a virtual world someone else made

Ayn Rand was a firm believer of the myth that in a totally free market society, no matter where you were born you'd have the opportunity to become what you truly want. For example in her "strike" book, one of the striker is a train worker..

I've been using Meizu for years although I consider other options for my next since their prices have rosen and they almost entirely removed the 3.5mm jack (deal breaker for me but maybe you're fine with it)

Annoying how Kurzgesagt went from cool to extremely cringe. It started with their pseudo profound bullshit "The Egg" and went downhill until this abomination of green capitalism, swimming in science denial waters
