The right (or far right) will probably win the next Spanish elections, which might rekindle independentist sentiment (both left and right have traditionally fucked with Catalonia, but the right has worse excuses), but personally I think we lost our best opportunity when we didn't follow up on the 2017 declaration of independence.

The far righ would straight try to genocide us, so there might be an opportunity there. We need to be uncomfortable enough to get off our fat arses and work for our freedom, like back in the 2010s.

Gibbons' The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, all six volumes of it.

It's supposed to be kind of sort of federal(ish) (federalish enough, in theory, to keep Catalonia and Euskadi happy enough that we won't want to leave). "States" are called autonomías (autonomies) and have their own government, laws, and institutions, though they still have to obey the Spanish government and most of its laws. It isn't really working.

The article is still wrong when it uses "feds", though, because the cops doing this are the mossos d'esquadra, the Catalan autonomic police, not the "federal(ish)" policía nacional (the Spanish police proper) or guardia civil (despite the name, the military Spanish police, a relic from Franco's dictatorship, like most of the country and its institutions).

I still have a fondness for TARGA (.TGA) from back in the day...

I live close to the central area of an ~80,000 population city.

Looking at Google maps I've got about 10 general stores within 300 meters, probably thrice that within 500m, plus plenty of smaller specialised stores.

300 to 600m seems like a reasonable distance to walk to and back with four to six bags of groceries.

For smaller more specialised shopping trips one or two kilometres would be fine too.

Three might be a bit much, though I've often walked that to go to the cinema.

Which one?

Pym, I'd assume. I mean, the guy beat his wife, created Ultron, and is generally even more of an asshole than Stark...

I did warn you.

Krokodil, probably.

(Seriously, don't look up images of its effects, it's extremely NSFL shit.)

Only thing I can think of is Aquarela do Brasil, but that's only because of Terry Gilliam...
