A Day in My Life: The Thoughts of a Devoted Cat
A Day in My Life: The Thoughts of a Devoted Cat #affectionatecat #artem #catbehavior #catroutine
By Fiona, Your Favorite Furry Companion Content 6+ The world stirs, and so do my humans. I wake when they wake—not because I have to, but because I want to. Why would I waste even a moment apart from them? They are mine, after all. My people. My family. My humans are waking up. I stretch luxuriously and roll onto my back, exposing my belly—a privilege only the most trusted ones receive. They rub…

Borders, Boogeymen, and Billion-Dollar Boosts
Borders, Boogeymen, and Billion-Dollar Boosts #artem
Content 18+ Immigration is a topic as charged with dynamite as it is with dynamism. I’d begin with the obvious irony: we’re all immigrants if you rewind history far enough. The United States, Germany, Hungary, Russia—all were shaped by people who packed their bags (or were forced to), crossed borders, and declared, “This looks promising!” before someone else grumbled, “Who invited you?” And thus,…

Trump’s Fossil-Fueled Legacy: How to Lose the Future in Four Short Years
Content 18+ Humanity has always excelled at self-destruction. From inventing the wheel to turning it into a war chariot, we’ve demonstrated an uncanny knack for using our greatest achievements to dig our own graves. But of all our short-sighted triumphs, climate change might just be our masterpiece—a tragic symphony conducted by fossil fuels, ignorance, and the occasional reality TV star turned…

The Curious Case of Universal Debt
The Curious Case of Universal Debt #artem
Content 16+ A peculiar phenomenon has emerged that would befuddle even the most pragmatic of accountants: everyone owes everyone. The United States, China, France, Germany, the United Kingdom—name a country, and chances are its national debt is not merely a small sum but a towering Everest of financial obligations. If everyone owes someone, who exactly is holding the IOUs? Let us journey into…

Make the World Great Again?
Content 21+ Imagine, just for a moment, if world leaders were all inspired by a certain brand of bombastic, larger-than-life rhetoric—a ‘Make Everything Ours Again’ agenda, fueled by nostalgia, bravado, and just a pinch of delusion. What would happen if every country had its own Trump-like figure, standing at a podium, arms waving, declaring their rightful claim to everything from former colonies…

The Illusion of Wealth
The Illusion of Wealth #artem
Why “Net Worth” Is More Virtual Than a VR Headset Content 16+ Ah, wealth. The great illusion, the siren song that drives humanity to toil, innovate, and occasionally commit the sort of financial hubris that would make even Icarus blush. But let us not be swayed by the glitzy headlines proclaiming the net worth of titans like Elon Musk or Jeff Bezos. For what we call ‘net worth’ is about as solid…

Generational Economics
Content 18+ Once upon a time, in the vast continuum of human history, there existed an arrangement so ingeniously crafted yet so inherently fraught with tension that it rivaled the intricacies of a galactic federation’s trade agreements: the retirement pyramid. At its core, this system operates on the premise that the younger generations work diligently, funneling their earnings upward to support…

The Real Cost of Flying Low-Cost Airlines
The Real Cost of Flying Low-Cost Airlines #artem
Content 16+ Budget airlines are the sirens of modern travel. They lure you in with the promise of absurdly low prices, like €9.99 flights to exotic destinations, and you can almost hear them whisper, “Go ahead, indulge.” But like those ancient sirens, their song often leads to a rocky awakening: a mounting pile of fees, discomfort, and logistical headaches that make you wonder if you might have…
