Darkman Fanpage posted:"hey man i know that trump and co are loving you over on your medicare but did you know that a lot of great art comes out of times of strife and estrangement from establishment/authority?" Art was better during the 90s than the Bush years. That's not just nostalgia speaking. Illustrations were more stylized, films were more transgressive, music was pushing into new frontiers. 9/11 made everyone retarded.

Mr President posted:But it was far better in the 80s during the Reagan years The best thing to come out of the 80s was Paul Verhoeven. The 70s were better than the 80s.

The value of Jeff Koons's art is that it will show the masses not to dread the guillotine.

I am dead serious. If you want to understand the aesthetic and social sensibilities of the 21st century fascist, read the lore for the Imperium of Man in WH40K. Those dorks can't get enough of it.

This all reminds me of how neglected infrastructure started to kill people during Shock Therapy in Russia. The one story that still sticks out in my mind was when a kid was walking down the street with his dad, fell into an open maintenance line and into super heated water, and ended up being boiled alive. I can't recall the details, and can't find it online so I'm not sure if he fell into a collapsed pothole or an open manhole. Early this year though, three kids in Kamchatka fell into boiling sewage and died because a wooden walkway collapsed underneath them. http://siberiantimes.com/other/others/news/n0570-tragedy-has-three-8-year-old-boys-die-after-falling-in-boiling-sewer/

aphid_licker posted:This is gonna sound crazy but to the sewers absolutely have to be boiling? The Soviets experimented with centralized heating systems where every building in a city could be hooked up to a common steam line. The Russians decentralized it because it's inefficient, but they kept the basic concept by having mixed power/heating plants for a local area. Because the sewers are part of the same system, the sewage also has to be kept at an extremely high temperature to maintain central heating. Plus, if you don't have hot sewerage in the far reaches of eastern Siberia, there's a good chance it could freeze over.

aphid_licker posted:No I mean cogeneration of heat and power, or use of available industrial waste heat for residential heating, is cool and good, but if your waste water is 80 fuckin degrees C you're throwing away a hilarious amount of energy and also, well, it's kinda dangerous. The whole execution seems very Russian. I said it was inefficient. I don't know everything about Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, but if it's one of the old Soviet "model cities" that the Russian government has to subsidize, they may have never been able to replace the system.
