It occurs to me that this last 1/2 century or so has been globally pretty peaceful. And I wondered if it might even be one of the MOST peaceful 50 years we’ve had....
Fruit juice is the drink with the most amount of sugar
What the fuck fuck is wrong with humanity???
As a Brazilian the best thing to have on a hot summer day ( over 40C) is a fruit juice where by default it’s made of real fresh fruit made right in front of your tires and has no sugar added. And of course most of the water is frozen.
And we beat ourselves because the imperialist Anglo Countries rule the world. Fuck off.

I’ve lived under a rock for 10 years. I did Metro ages ago while most were still on contracts. Surely we’ve reached true capitalist open market freedom by now. Is it still total closed market, noncompetitive, privateering corruption?
I've got this idea baking because I saw a guy post that it's been as many year from 1971 to 2024 as it was from 1971 to 1918. How do the global wars compare in the two periods?
It occurs to me that this last 1/2 century or so has been globally pretty peaceful. And I wondered if it might even be one of the MOST peaceful 50 years we’ve had....
