These might be the good old days. Go outside, feel the grass, say wassup to your neighbors,… whatever you do that means community, because sh*t might get bad for a while.

Something tells me this day will eventually live in greater infamy than 9/11.

Like in 2230, provided there is still something resembling the human race, “9/11” will be just another boring date to memorize together with shit like the Alamo w/e.

The day the republic fell, however, will be a lot more recognizable and memorable.

248 years. Empires “always” last around ~250 (Let’s ignore the Romans for now) so we’re exactly on time.

Bull fucking shit.

They last from 0 years to 1427, and 250 is not the average.

This 250 years nonsense needs to die off.
