Albanians have been ahead of the curve


I got your bitch with me

being a teenager in 2012 must’ve been crazy…


we discussed this drawing for way too long. CHEEKS BROTHERS VOL 2 out now!! patreon.com/stavvysworld

literary fiction today is like, “I suddenly made a U turn. I didn’t know what I was doing. I pulled through the Sonic drive-thru window and ordered 11 cheeseburgers. I drove off without paying. In Mythologies, Roland Barthes says that the bourgeoisie are a joint-stock company,

Matt Damon is stunned by how Christopher Nolan made #TheOdyssey the first Hollywood movie shot entirely with Imax film cameras. “Imax cameras are really loud. It sounds like a blender, like a Cuisinart in your face when the camera’s close to you. So there’s never been these dialogue [scenes in Imax]. We couldn’t have this conversation with a normal Imax camera because you wouldn’t be able to hear us. They built this giant thing around the Imax for those dialogue scenes and a system of mirrors so your eye line would be close to the camera and you could talk to the other actor. The amount of work that went into figuring out how to do [that], because he wanted to do 100 percent Imax and he did it!” (via "New Heights" podcast) Read more here: variety.com/2026/film/news…

😂🤡 Another day, another Albanian cope session. This “International IQ Test” garbage is NOT science. It’s an online clickbait quiz with tiny, self-selected samples (Albania: ~456 takers, Kosovo: ~209). Only the few who have internet, speak English, and care enough to take it bother—massive selection bias. In low-access countries, that means it wildly overestimates. Real data: • Richard Lynn & David Becker (2019) – the most comprehensive peer-reviewed national IQ dataset: Albania ≈ 82 Kosovo not separately listed, but regional estimates ~80-82 • PISA 2022 (OECD standardized tests, 15-year-olds, hundreds of thousands tested, directly comparable): Albania: Math 368, Reading 358, Science 376 (among Europe’s absolute worst) Kosovo: Math 355, Reading 347, Science 362 (even lower) OECD average: ~470-480. Slovenia 485+, Serbia ~440, even Bosnia beats both. These aren’t “biased” tests—they’re the same tests given to everyone, and the scores align perfectly with Lynn’s estimates. So no, Albanians are not “101 IQ geniuses.” You’re near the bottom in Europe on every objective cognitive measure. The diaspora spamming that online quiz doesn’t change reality. Stop the delusional nationalist propaganda. Facts are brutal, but they’re facts.
