2019-01-25 at 5:30 AM UTC in davos is exceptionally boring this yearlol nobody important showed up. I think this is a metaphor for the entire "international rules-based system", does the order exist if no one that matters recognizes it? obviously not. Trump has the government shut down, May has brexit, Macron has the yellow vests, China is facing some serious economic problems, idk why some of the other leaders like Modi (I don't care about Indian politics) didn't show up. All in all, it paints a delicious picture. The world is burning while they talk about AI, trannies, and climate change in Davos(three topics of varying levels of unreality).
When the only problem these people had to solve was grifting and enriching themselves at the expenses of every native population without access to the splendors of the financial elite, they had every sort of solution. Now, they have no idea what is going on, much less how to solve it. They should be coming to terms with reality but instead they are laughing insecurely because they were not prepared for change, for a world that looks different, that operates under different terms and values.
most terrible of all, is they are all boring and terribly insufferable. has anyone else bothered to try to sit through some of the talks or interviews? -

Language is a degradation of the powers of telepathy we had. Words used to have much more power! History is mostly a lie and a sham, the realest parts being the mythological. the path to becoming solar is clear, we must cast off these crutches of convenience.

Originally posted by CASPER Wine has become my favorite lately. Beer makes me piss too much and hard alcohol hits too hard. Red wine is the perfect in between. Cabernet sauvignon seems to be most popular, but I don't really dig tannins too much yet. Besides the 2 bottles of Sanctuary 2012 that I saved for new years, pinot noir has been kind of a miss too. But malbecs, red zinfandel, merlot and bordeaux dug. I even have a tiny lil collection going.
you seem to have the same general taste that I do, you would probably also enjoy Grenache and Syrah. Merlot, cab, malbec, grenache, syrah, those are my five basic red wine grapes that don't do me wrong. Of course there are hundreds of varietals, some very obscure and limited to region, but you can't go wrong with the "basics", so to speak.
once you get the grape types you like you should hone in on some regions, france, italy, california, chile, and spain are my top five. not only are there differences in the soil ("terroir") but different countries have different standards of doing things. Italy and France are pretty traditional but also experiment with and use high tech stuff, Californians are either uber scientific or are meditating outside naked with their grapes. Australians are almost all about technology, consistent good wine but nothing special, no soul. you get the idea.
the most important thing is age though. the difference between 1 year and 5 years is pretty huge, the difference between 5 and 10 is light years. 10-15 is the sweet spot for red wine, any older than that and you're really gambling. Not all wines are meant to age forever. But god damn, a 13, 14 year old bottle of wine is an entirely different affair than a normal table wine, it is pure ambrosia.
don't get caught up in the trap of buying big brand names for stupid money! One of my favorite wines/good deals is a Cali Syrah/Mourverdre/Grenache (Oak Meadow), 2003, $9.99! Have had many similarly tasty and priced wines from Chile. Finding amazing, underappreciated wine for wino tier prices is a lot of fun. I'm pretty sure most people that spend $50-$70 on a bottle of 3 year old wine have never had a proper glass of wine. -

Only one way to find out.
