Made in Abyss, I'm scared of what is going on in the author's mind. The mythical part gives a fascinating fear, the pedo stuff is just disgusting.

I doubt the majority of engines consuming oil are euro-5 compliant: cargo ships, airplanes, military vehicles, electricity generators, water heaters, tractors, none of these typically use catalytic converters.

They even refrain from using oil for their famous fries, they use animal fat instead.

I'm not capable of violence myself so I won't pretend to support it. That being said, there is a whole process of dilution of responsibilities to make unacceptable decisions happen, if everyone plays nice and by the rules, nothing will happen. Past struggles have never been overcome peacefully.

She had ample opportunities to do good and to stand by higher moral standard. There is a difference between messing up on political technicalities (I thought this was a good idea, I don't anymore) and failing on core principles.

Also I think it's fair to avoid people who have failed a lot, sure they might have learnt from it, but maybe they are just not very smart and competent at that job ?

The older I get the more I fear there is less idiocy involved in the whole mess. The people in power are definitely conscious of their wrong-doing. As for the voter, it is scary how the sociopathic traits and overall individualism has grown in society. Everyday I meet people in support of this scorched earth approach where they'd rather embrace adversity than fight for ideals and bare with the few downsides of living in a group.

That is where you spend your money in practice. There is not enough state money to maintain all the castles. To be fair, there are a fuckton of them, even though our government is garbage, we can't realistically justify to maintain all of them anyway.

I can't say for Italy but in France it's basically free indeed. Maintenance costs are high and the repairs must follow strict patrimony preservation rules with certified workers.

Pan's Labyrinth features the second place. I swore to never re-watch this (beautiful) movie.

And the performance/watt is not that exceptional.
