I was thinking of central heat and air conditioning accessible to the masses for home use. But you are right that the history of HVAC goes back much farther than that.

Oh, and salmon sushi was invented in the 1980’s by the Norwegian fishing industry. Before that, no salmon in sushi.

You know how you can push some buttons on your wall and your house magically warms up or cools down? I know people who were alive before that existed.

I got to experience it firsthand a few days ago from me a MAGA relative. “Don’t believe the hysterical media. It’s all a manufactured crisis by the liberals to take advantage of people.”

The ending was fire. 🔥

Relevant quote from St. Basil:

"Who is the covetous man? One for whom plenty is not enough. Who is the defrauder? One who takes away what belongs to everyone. And are not you covetous, are you not a defrauder, when you keep for private use what you were given for distribution? When some one strips a man of his clothes we call him a thief. And one who might clothe the naked and does not—should not he be given the same name?

The bread in your hoard belongs to the hungry; the cloak in your wardrobe belongs to the naked; the shoes you let rot belong to the barefoot; the money in your vaults belongs to the destitute. All you might help and do not—to all these you are doing wrong"

Oh no Dad’s doing the dishes again KIDS GET OUT OF THE HOUSE

I’m just trying to shitpost in a meme community here. Though, if we want to split hairs, “subsidies” can include government contracts to purchase goods and services:

A subsidy has a very particular meaning under the Subsidies Agreement and U.S. law (Title VII of the Tariff Act of 1930). A subsidy is defined as a “financial contribution” by a government which provides a benefit. The forms that a subsidy can take include:

• a direct transfer of funds (e.g., a grant, loan, or infusion of equity);
• a potential transfer of funds or liabilities (e.g., a loan guarantee);
• foregone government revenue (e.g., a tax credit); or
• the purchase of goods, or the provision of goods or services (other than general infrastructure).

A third of eligible voters didn’t vote. The remaining people who did vote were almost evenly split. So, in rough numbers, 1/3rd of American voters put us all in this mess.

If you only have regular outlets, you can always get a male-male extension cord to gamble with death.

Browning is now owned by FN Herstal, though the Browning business unit is still headquartered in the US.

Springfield is privately owned by an American family.

No no no. “Un” means “one.” They are building the first in a series of forts. Canada is constructing its own version of the Maginot Line, but unlike the French they are extending it all the way to the sea (on both ends).

I’m gonna have to enforce the “No politics or political figures” community rule here.

I think this entire calendar is direct translations. Other pages have seemed incorrect after I looked up unfamiliar words. Though my Spanish is not good enough to catch the errors most of the time.
