Acne scars.
I've yet to find someone else who finds them attractive. Not as weird as some others around here I think, but I find them really hot for some reason.

Not a good solution for most of the world, but great for where it can be done, same as geothermal.
Look up Nox Arcana if you want something Gothic. Might be a bit too orchestral for your needs, but it's a dark version that's unlike anything I've heard.
Fută-te-ar Stalin
Pronounced: Foot-uh-tea-are Stalin
Congrats! You can swear in Romanian now!
"I piss in your mother's death"
Alternatively, "May Stalin fuck you"
And yes, I live in Eastern Europe.
I think wealth disparity can get much worse than this. People used to be enslaved and forced into serfdom. The people on top wouldn't have to win if the people revolted, they just have to not lose and let the people who already struggle die from starvation. Such a scenario is highly unpredictable and personally I still think the people would win, but it's definitely an uphill battle that's getting harder the more we remain passive.
It's so interesting to me how money can have such a different value for different people. I live in the EU yet I make less than 1000€ a month even though prices are at EU levels. This would more than double my income and it would mean I could finally afford new clothes, I wouldn't have to worry about having money for food, bills would be paid on time and I could even save up a meaningful ammount! It would be a literal life-saver.
Not saying I'm in favor of it, but there's still market socialism out there as a political stance
The sad fact is you can't really escape politics and ideology since they literally permeate everything. The closest thing you can do is make something as appealing to mainstream audiences and thus as close to the stuff most people agree with, but... Liking the status quo is still a political statement at the end of the day.
Let's say you're talking about a character in a movie who always goes out of their way to help people. That would be palatable to most, it's a very widespread worldview and value. But even then, a segment of people believe that you shouldn't help people if it doesn't get you anything (What's in it for me? Sort of mentality).
In that situation, the person claiming you shouldn't help people for free would rightfully be labeled an asshole, but the point still is that even something as benign as that makes a statement in a conflict between an altruistic ideology (It's good to help people!) Vs an egoistic ideology (I need to get something for my effort)
This is obviously a very simplified version of how deep politics and philosophy affect all interactions, but I hope I managed to get my point across!
Have a nice day, stranger!
I'm not sure this applies to stuff like ads. Like, if you always prioritize foss and ethically sourced products, ads can't really persuade you to buy certain things. And you make those decisions by doing research and buying local, or even better, making as much stuff as you can yourself.
I have a cat. It stays indoors at all times. It makes no sounds and doesn't bother anyone. Yet it still gets scared half to death every new year's due to fireworks.
In the end, that's what I ended up doing. Thanks anyway!
I think we have 10-15 years or so left before the internet becomes totally unusable due to ads, paywalls and general bad design all over the place.
The summary for this video hurts my eyes to look at.
