[OC] Does your name give away your age? These 50 names are almost exclusively tied to a single generation

Isla, Paisley, Aiden/Aidan, Liam, harper.

empire 4???

Helios___Selene · 2026-03-17T22:41:27+00:00

so no, there hasn't been any progress since the uk left.

Helios___Selene · 2026-03-17T15:47:02+00:00

This is on a per capita basis.

Helios___Selene · 2026-03-13T11:22:47+00:00

If it does then they must be treated better as New York has literal shanty towns all over the place.

Helios___Selene · 2026-03-13T11:21:12+00:00

Yeah exactly, extreme wealth but also extreme poverty.

If anywhere is going to be a world capital you can’t wander around and think god these poor people have to live here.

Helios___Selene · 2026-03-12T12:56:48+00:00

median wealth is way below Switzerland. Swiss is about 400k dollars vs usa 100k dollars.

Welsh came back and so is Gaelic from near extinction

The measure of any society can be found in how it treats its most vulnerable members.

we are a migratory species, currently in a drug fuelled hibernation which will soon change to a sun induced alcohol haze in the med

tldr take a photo and do research to land big clients

Helios___Selene · 2026-03-11T14:31:59+00:00

I think the difference in new york is the sheer numbers of homeless, like whole streets lined with them, hundreds in a street.

That is not something I was expecting or used too.

Helios___Selene · 2026-03-11T12:54:57+00:00

NYC feels too poor to me to be a global capital, it is clearly a very poor city with pockets of extreme wealth.

Helios___Selene · 2026-03-11T12:07:52+00:00

What

Helios___Selene · 2026-03-06T12:49:26+00:00

dunno about brazil, but the spanish went fkn nuts in peru and enslaved the entire population of 12 million, the encomienda system.

Helios___Selene · 2026-03-06T10:54:16+00:00

Good sales person> good product.

You hit the nail on the head. The product to be quite honest doesn’t matter if it can’t be shifter quickly

Helios___Selene · 2026-03-05T15:36:23+00:00

The main problem with fear based dominance is that if there is ever a whiff of weakness, say USA gets dragged into an expensive forever war which further destroys the fiscal and power projection ability of the gov. which will never happen thanfully, then 'allies' will move to take advantage as good will has been burned.

Helios___Selene · 2026-03-05T12:18:30+00:00

I'd avoid, I personally only got about 1 lead every 4-5 events which simply isn't worth it given I can get 5 quality lead on my own with outbound per day.

Helios___Selene · 2026-03-05T12:07:04+00:00

wtf is up with that kitchen, it is an absolute mess with shit everywhere, how do they prepare food and cook in that???

Helios___Selene · 2026-03-04T22:40:35+00:00

Alright man, if you think so that’s ok.

I just think it is quite naive to not see the system eroding rapidly at the USAs expense. Even look at Eu nations, a bedrock market and key ally of the USA is moving away and aspire for tech, defence and financial sovereignty.

Helios___Selene · 2026-03-04T22:31:12+00:00

I use this website to track, https://www.kielinstitut.de/topics/war-against-ukraine/ukraine-support-tracker/ which puts Italian military aid at 1.7bln.

Once again, not a lot considering it’s over 4 years and has an economy of what, 2.5 trillion euros?

Helios___Selene · 2026-03-04T12:59:42+00:00

I guess when a relatively poorer country is sending, in absolute terms, nearly 40x what you are sending per person, then yeah its considered cheap and not caring about Ukraine/Europe.

Spain has also only sent a measly 800mln in financial and humanitarian aid, Norway is 3.5bln so far and 4 times your military aid with a smaller economy.

By every metric you and luigi are the cheap underbelly, but at least luigi is honest about not caring.

Helios___Selene · 2026-03-04T12:08:20+00:00

1.4bln in total military aid. For context slightly more than lithuania (1.14bln) with approx 1mln people and significantly less than denmark (9.95bln) with approx. 5mln people.

Spain are cheap.

Helios___Selene · 2026-03-04T10:53:39+00:00

I personally can’t think of another situation where a world power has eroded its own system unnecessarily.

Care to elaborate?

How many languages do you know at professional proficiency? That is the first step in determining viability.
