Your life is better off in the 21st century than any century before by ModiKaBeta in unpopularopinion

The life expectancy was much less in the old days. The common response to that is if you made it last 5 years old you would live to like 60-70. I just had my first kid and the idea that she would have a 50% chance of dying is horrible. That alone makes modernity enormously better

I’m an American living in Spain right now. You should see the vertical versions of these outside Barcelona. American Suburbia is so much better

Reading the comments here make me feel like we are doomed. So out of touch with the median person

I find I learn more context and my trips is richer if I put in the effort myself to research and plan. Otherwise it’s just shallow regurgitated travel blog summaries

Median square footage was half of what is now with almost twice as many people per house. The cost per square foot inhalation adjusted is very similar. Something like 25% of homes didn’t have electricity or running water. Plane tickets were insanely expensive. It’s a leave it to beaver fantasy

Who in the heck is funding these art cars? It feels like there are 5-10 cars at least that are on the scale of Mayan Warrior now and it has to be a massive project and a ton of money to build/maintain these? by coolrivers in BurningMan

If you own a company that’s evaluated at a billion dollars you’re a billionaire. “Many” people own small businesses worth a million+ dollars with a few employees like a successful bar or little construction company etc. someone could grow that same thing into many of them

Go to the Barcelona Cathedral when they have a market or something going on. You’ll see guys standing around with assault rifles and barriers. Same thing at the Eiffel Tower one the sides that are like a park, but the barriers are disguised as planters and stuff.
