That’s around 33 CE.

Common era is kinda dumb terminology because it is meant to contrast with the regnal era (year used by commoners vs year of monarchs reign).

Jewish people in Europe used common era as well as current era which I feel makes more sense.

Altogether better is the Czech terminology which uses “of our years” and “before our years”.

I’ve also heard of retconning bc/ad to be “backwards count” and “ascending dates”

But China doesn’t care about democracy. And if their military starts to outpower America’s, we might just see an end to the era of soldiers swarming into underdeveloped countries.

:powercry-1: NOOOO!!!! anything but the end of soldiers swarming into underdeveloped countries!!

"The mind illuminated" (you can pirate it on libgen) might be good for you. It has different stages to work on, where the first is just getting a daily practice started. (the first half of the audibook is on youtube as well)
