I am not familiar with the show, but a quick research shows that it seems like The Gilded Age portrays something similar to Downton Abbey, but it’s more some quasi aristocratic class hierarchy.
Two tired mice in a pail of milk, They swam around as best they could. But hope began to fade - what should they do? One wanted to drown itself, But its friend said, "No, no, no, For hope only triumphs, maybe, As long as we keep searching for it. Keep searching for it.

In 80 years our grandchildren will watch the new Downton Abbey series just with oligarchy instead aristocracy and feel very sorry for us.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why do so many people comment and then delete their message?

Thanks. It was a really awesome trip, and we just got really close really early on, and we just knew at point, that we liked each other a lot. And we have some really funny and great memories from 6 days in the “wilderness”.
We are not normal, and don’t strive to be it either. We also don’t think any of us could find another partner, so we will most likely be off the market forever. You are welcome.
Hey, I think my wife would have been the murderer and not me.
yeah. But, we had known each other since we were 16, but never dated before.
We took it to the extreme. Our first date was a trip to another country with backpacks, a small tent, a bag of rice and one of those small gas stove. She cursed at me and the world on our first hiking trip, while sweating like a horse. She was in a terrible form and do not enjoy hiking trips.
We had to shower in the lakes, and they were cold AF, so… I did not present myself from my best side…
We also nearly died. But, we’ve been together for 10+ years now.
We stress tested the shit out of our relationship on that trip.
After our near death experience, we settled somewhere nice, but during that night we were hit by an hurricane and my tent broke, forcing me to stay up all night, holding it together, while she slept. It was a special date.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Would you want to live in a country other than your own? If so, where and why?

A Danish news paper have succeeded in doing that: https://www.zetland.media/zetland
My boss thought he was Harvey Specter from Suits. He even had a poster of Harvey Specter in his home office.

52·25 days agoWe have had these digital price tags in Denmark for a very long time. I can confirm that when more than 1 person looks at a price tag, no price will be shown, only when you are alone, you will see the actual price.
I’ve been working 99 % remotely the last year. So difficult imaging ever going back to open offices, but it is probably impossible to avoid going back at some point, unless I become the boss.

Isn’t the difference between aristocracy and oligarchy only that oligarchy is a more corrupt version aristocracy? Seems like a blurry line. None the less, both systems seems suck for those not among the elite.
