Where? Pax Americana enveloped all of the developed world and American shanenigans have an impact on everywhere it would be nice to live. Late stage capitalism is a global problem nowadays. Americans are getting fucked economically but europeans are facing the collapse of security structures and the need for huge arms investments, also the wave of right wing populism doesn’t seem to be receeding. IDK too much about situation in south America but apart from Argentina 100 years ago SA countries never seemed to be the best of countries to live. Developed nations of Asia probably have the same problems as Europe right now.

I guess we should just hope that China doesn’t turn their strategy from economic expansion to something more imperialistic and will still be satisfied with us just consuming tons of their plastic shit.

Of course, first things need to hit rock bottom for regular people to demand fair treatment.

Plague massively increased economic situation of peasants in western Europe.

Every lottery run by private business is not a lottery but transfer of money from gullible to someone’s friends and family.

Generational shift means kids bad and stupid. That’s all.

A tip for millenials: Whenever you cringe at zoomers for their dumb tiktok dances, remember the badger song and realise every generation is stupid and cringe.

Naleśnik in Polish. Etymology is unclear but certainly slavic. Most current hypothesis claims it’s from “na liściu” meaning something baked on a leaf.

We eat them with various jams, Nutella, anything sweet, sweetened cottage cheese or quark or curd or whatever a “twaróg” would translate to is a popular filling too.

Where i live we have a system where if you take sick days, they are paid 80%. 20% reduction applies only to the days you were sick. Once I got sick at the end of a month and took the last 3 days of the month and first 2 days of the next one off and she freaked out I’m about to loose 20% of 2 month’s salaries. She was and is still convinced that 20% deduction applies to a whole month worth of salary even if you take one day off that month. She almost never takes sick days and she works in a hospital… She self medicates and works with patients even when she has a transmittable diseases. Best of luck to those who have serious health problems and then get a fucking flu on top of everything from hospital staff. She is 60+ and reading the law to her doesn’t change her mind. A couple years ago she had more serious health problems and took a week off for the first time in decades, even after getting a paycheck reduced only by 5% and not 20% her perception of this issue didn’t change. She misunderstood that system once 40 years ago and she is going to take that misunderstanding to ger grave. Real world has no influence on her beliefs.

Shit, man… I agree and I’m in a bit of a pickle now, recently i applied for a job at US company, I’m probably the best fit for the position they could wish to find and my contacts on the inside say that management was super excited to see my application since they were trying to fill that position for 9 months without success. I have a moral dillema now. I’m torn between demanding ridiculously large salary to either get rejected or to milk them as much as possible before US - EU relations deteriorate to a level of sanctioning each other, other option is to just state my concerns about them being US based and reject them outright.

We are living in a time where such obvious statements need to be written down. This is terryfying. Billionaires are questioning the very idea of public wealth in order to tear it down and take control over it. They already control housing, production and distribution of goods, production and distribution of information. Public infrastructure is just another step in wealth concentration and towards feudalism. This is not funny. Where I live serfdom was abolished in 1848, my ancestors were free men for less than 2 centuries. My grandma could have talked to people who were born under serfdom and we are already steering back into it.

Is there any chance for a future where the economy that matters, real people’s lives, production of useful goods and services, becomes decoupled from imaginary evaluations of billionaire’s gambling results? It really rustles my jimmies when I hear that a result of some banksters bet can get working families evicted and jobs dissapear.

I never know if they are Jewish or not, the groups themselves are distinct because they are always in large groups, with multiple guides and guards, but I can’t tell Jewish or non Jewish Israelis apart just by their faces. Idk why they behave like that. It’s all ages. I sometimes see them out in the city but I heard more chilling stories about them from a guy who operates a bus transfer business to Auschwitz.

Oh believe me, Israeli trips in Kraków are the worst kind of tourists in every aspect possible. They are louder than British stag parties, more obnoxious than Americans and their favourite thing is crying about antisemitism when they are removed from somewhere for causing disturbances or making a huge mess. They do not understand the idea of rubbish bins and you can trace their paths by following cigarette butts, empty crisps packets and spit.

Gravel ofc. Just imagine being able to provide every construction site on earth with cheap gravel with no cost at all. I’d be the first billionaire on earth who didn’t fuck other people over to be absurdly rich.

What’s his fucking issue with Ukrainians? Is it all about the time when Zelenski didn’t help him produce dirt on Hunter Biden? There is around a million of Ukrainians in Poland right now and crime related incidents involving them are rare. They are a net benefit to society. A million more tax payers. Unfortunately due to incompatibility of their education system and slight language barrier they do jobs below their education level but their contribution is undisputable. Quick influx of them hastened problems with housing affordability in largest cities but it’s not their fault that the government has no strategy to combat high housing prices, without them the situation would still arise but a couple years later. I’ll take 240k more Ukrainian immigrants than 240k American tourists anytime.
