I remember being taught in A-level history 10+ years ago that on top of this the economy was being fuelled by remilitarisation.

The conclusion we were given was that the bubble could burst if the stuff was made, then not used or needed, so potentialay Poland and France, Russia etc were invaded or in the case of Russia attempted) 5 years early or something to that effect.

I haven't kept up with historical things for a while, and this take might have changed in that time. :)

I miss the number of users meaning there was always some kind soul also interested in my niche interest, be it coding, obscure band I just found... that was neat. :)

I don't miss the number of users meaning lame memes and boring gibberish clogging the pipes, not to mention the argument people on the big subs. :/

Aw when I saw Ireland, I was thinking the UK was on this map... then remembered the past half decade and got sad.

(I voted to stay a European 😔)

My mind immediately went to the band Phish... I was all excited to find a new corner of the internet about them! :) Never mind :)

Nice! I like this idea a lot :) I'll download and maybe use it as an excuse to walk :)

I saw first sci-fi and thought ooooh "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep"... but, as much as it's a great book... it is not positive by any means!

I am interested too, it's been tricky to find positive sci-fi for me, and I'd love to read some. :)

I needed to say that these are great! :) I've not seen anything like it before, really cool and odd. :) Awesome.
