  • I like asking which heaven or hell? Mormons have this thing called eternal darkness or some shit and you need to be really bad to go there. But they also have 3 heavens, with the bottom class heaven for heathens like me.

    I kind of hope it’s like a resturant. Yes, i’ll have the Heaven of the day, hold the damniation. Yes, yes, i’ll take an order of angel wings and a harp. No, lets save and get just silver, no need to be flashy.

    Or better yet, which heaven did the Christians go to? I’ll take the other heaven please.




  • Now a map with tourism overlayed, and corporate ownership and/or rental properties in the EU. I argue this because I know qol is amazing Italy, Spain, etc… and because I live in Spain, I can attest my quality of life is amazingly better than USA. But it’s full of airbnb’s and similar that have priced out locals by raising rent beyond the norm. My rent €1400 a month for a 2 bed place, twice what it is 100km away. If Tourists drive the economy means that you’re dealing with shops and stores that are for tourists only and not locals, prices go up, etc…

    So these numbers would show me if places heavily dependent on tourism and “lower” quality of life scores, coincide.






  • Before the physical photos were digitized…

    Not sure about you but in my house we had a photo wall where the best memories were and the books just held the “other photos” that also told the story. Most of my books from my parents were smaller and less memorable things like parties, fireworks, camping… but the shot of me scoring a goal, my sisters in a pyramid, that year we all dressed as scooby and gang…that was on the wall and now of course, on our digital frames we all own.

    I’ll agree the value of a photo goes down when you can take 200 in a minute, but the memories we missed because we had to save the other 20 shots left… didn’t make those memories priceless.

    Also people, back that shit up. When my kids turned 18 I shared a drive with them of all their younger years and have a digital executor for when I die who knows where the pics are (and what to delete 😏)
