I remember my stepmom buying me a Star Wars game so we could play it together because we both liked Star Wars, only for him to make every excuse not to play it with me, even when one of his friends he invited over DID play with me - 50+ old man who had never played a video game in his life and yet he still gave it a go to make me happy. And I do remember that my mom DID play video games with me, would buy all kinds of games for us both to enjoy, would take me to the game store on release days so I could excitedly buy the new game I'd been waiting for, listened to me when I talked about my favorites for hours.

[@Castkett4ever]

The argument "people died in their 30s" is not entirely correct: the average lifespan was in the 30s because so many babies, infants and kids died. But plenty of people lived until their 50s and 60s. So once you made it out of childhood, you were quite likely to live longer than your 30s. But life was filled with diseases and other awful things we have eradicated/made illegal.

[@DavidStruveDesigns]

Most of the skeletons we've found, if they're not of very young babies and children, are of people aged 70 and over. And this covers a _very_ large period of time. Including all of the medieval period. So yeah you are correct - survive childhood and you had a fair to good chance of living well into what we'd consider old age even by todays standards. It's just that if you _did_ become ill for whatever reason, or injured, you had a much greater chance of dying than you do today in most modern countries with decent healthcare options. But even that wasn't _guaranteed_ - people recovered from infections all the time back then too, not that you'd know it by the way some historians paint the past.

@@happytofu5 Yeah, that was a major downside to those times. I mean, it still happens today sadly - but thankfully we _have_ come a long way in ensuring mothers actually survive childbirth at a much higher rate. That's partly why I don't understand people who wish they could live in those times, like the past was the _worst_ for the vast majority of people. Why wish to go back to that?

[@--CHARLIE--]

That's why they had so many kids back then. You have 12 kids, 8 of them die, you still have 4 kids. Oh wait, no, 3 kids. Mary, age 15, just died in childbirth, and the kid she died birthing was stillborn. :-D

Fun fact: the ‘tan lines’ left over from a sign being removed from a building like that are called ‘label scars.’ Also, I’m a barista in the US, in my experience, Americanos are NOT associated with conservatives. In the South a lot of conservatives don’t go to coffee shops at all, a lot of them just get like gas station coffee.

[@mrcattoonist4766]

To be fair a lot of coffee shops are expensive and at least from my experience some gas station coffee isn't all that bad, but there is a class connection to your political standing, it isn't 1:1 but generally speaking people who can afford to go to college, to live in bigger cities and to go to nice coffee shops tend to be more on the left side because when you go to college and live in a city you meet people who are different from you and you realize there's actually no reason to hate marginalized communities because they're human beings just like you, when you're more isolated from people because you're poor it's easier to get indoctrinated into the hate cult since youre rarely interacting with anyone who isn't like you, I say this as a poor leftist so it isn't 1:1, just quite common

@@Feezee223 it's fine. Usually, with green tea, it gets burned if you pour boiling water over it. Makes the leaves very bitter and tastes a bit like dirt. Coffee beans, it really depends on the beans and if they are whole or ground. But anything about 200 F can burn them and cause a very bitter after taste. Best beans have water more slowly poured over them to cool it just a bit before it hits the beans. Now black tea loves boiling water and will be bitter without it. Sadly, a lot of coffee chains will use one temp fits all with tea and pour boiling water on green, herbal, and white tea, burning the leaves and making a very bitter flavor

The people who built those stone roads absolutely did not do it for free

[@teresa_meow]

When you spoke about that ancient vs modern road thing, it reminded me of the old houses here in Portugal (mainly south I think) that used to be build with a very specific dirt mixture. My parents still live in one, the walls are super thick and stable, and the whole building is close to a hundred years old. Nowadays, because no one knows the craft anymore, people build houses with simple bricks, the walls are super slim and the house doesn't last nearly as long. Upside: they're faster and cheaper to build, and they need renovations more often. Capitalism babyyyy

[@aarontaranto964]

About roads, roads back then only had feet, animal hooves, and carriage wheels going across them. Nowadays we have cars and multiple-thousand pound trucks going across them. So I feel like modern roads have it a little harder than old fashioned stone roads.

[@nicjobro_4653]

Cars are really good at destroying roads.

[@kieransky]

Yeah and ontop of that, those kind of roads are HELL to drive on. We still have those stone roads in some places in germany and ontop of being incredibly loud you feel the little stones inside the car and everything just shakes. And you also can't drive fast on them! If you'd try driving on one of those as fast a you would on a highway your car would be in a ditch a minute later.

[@chomcat1910]

Sorta reminds me of how some have pointed out that conservatives/right-wingers often appear to be perpetually angry (or seek to be) with how negative they can be, especially about things that don't affect them whatsoever. Like they just need to find something to be angry about even in situations where there's nothing to be mad about. I was looking at a random post about archeologists opening an ancient Egyptian sarcophagus for the first time and there was one person who made a transphobic comment about how ancient Egypt didn't have any trans people so trans people just don't exist or something.

[@Axioanarchist]

It is. Conservatism is anchored in masculinity, and the definition of masculinity is increasingly associated with suffering and misery. Anything sweet, pleasant, or soft is defined as feminine, and therefore must be avoided. Therefore again, the only way to make oneself "better" than another is to decry them as "insufficiently masculine" and their likes, hobbies, food, etc as soft and feminine, further marginalizing an increasingly-limited list of "acceptably masculine" pursuits. Meaning in practice that it's only "masculine" to "enjoy" things that are bitter, harsh, unpleasant, and difficult, solely to prove you "aren't feminine".

Its because people get addicted to schadenfreude, and then when they run out of people to condemn for legitimate reasons they try to find every excuse they can to condemn others, especially people they already don't like (since, a lot of people don't realize that just because you don't like something or someone doesn't mean they are morally wrong, and that its ok to dislike something or someone without that thing or person being in the wrong. Hence why people get addicted to schadenfreude in the first place, it lets them enjoy the suffering of something they dislike and still retain the moral high ground)

The past few years we have been finding long lost cousins on my father's side, and he's been forcing me to accept them when they are still complete strangers to me. These are grown a$s men that I never met before. He invited one over to visit us, and made me give up my car to let him drive. He was a terrible driver and it terrified me. And now my father found another one. I have never met this guy or even seen a picture of him, but my father basically bullied me into letting him send pics of me to him, when I am extremely uncomfortable with pics being taken of me, let alone put online. I expressed this and he got so mad, he keeps prioritizing his "precious white family" over me and my Indian mom and it makes me sick. He's racist and sexist and homophobic and his two other kids, my half siblings, are the same and I hate it and I want them out of my life.

that video game post seems like it's trying to say that kids won't be *proud* of their fathers for playing video games. it's still a stupid post because it's just this obsession with the idea that a father must be a big, masculine, capable figure in a kid's life to be respected and also that video games are inherently for weaklings because they're an indoor person activity or whatever. but i don't think it's really about nostalgic connection. based on my experience growing up with adults who would agree with the post, i don't think people like this really care much about making a good emotional connection with their kids.
