Overheard on the interwebs: "That awkward moment when you realize 1971 and 2024 are as far apart as 1971 and 1918". I admit that I rubbed my eyes when I saw this! I mean, that´s not how we usually see things, is it?
I had a similar weird moment some time ago when I realized that as a small kid I actually met a person who was born and raised in the Austro-Hungarian empire. You know, my own great-grandmother.
It´s a bit like that old meme pointing out that the chronological distance between a Stegosaurus and a T-Rex is longer than that between a T-Rex and humans...
