I could weep.
If you don't mind me asking. Why? Is the US society better/worse than then?
As an aside I remember looking at my Grandmothers "1901 Young Women's Handbook"
First few pages had photos of the British Royalty and even the Czar and Czarina of Russia.

With a few commonsense exceptions we are far worse off. Conceding the advantages of modern medicine, I like being in my 50s, alive and with most of my teeth, and I appreciate living in a world where most of my fellows understand the virtues and pleasures of regular bathing, but we have lost so much. And I too have a picture of the imperial family over my desk.

Well, I must admit I was surprised at how well dressed everyone was. My elderly mother still cannot get over the concept that stores sell "pre-ripped" jeans :)

On the site Kriegspiel found there is also a movie from Moscow in the 1890's

Also an elderly gent I sent the video to commented that people are much less religious today. He said that during his youth and in his Grandparents time, almost everyone went to church. They lived in a small rural town, so it may have been different in larger cities.

Thanks! That comes from the year I was born. Until I just saw this now I had NO idea how long those drills had already been going on prior to my personal involvement in practicing saving ourselves from an atomic bomb!

Mick Gordon - BFG Division (Doom 2016 Soundtrack)

Holy absolute fuck.
Doom: Eternal

The Mick Gordon Doom soundtracks are what beating hellspawned monsters to death sounds like.

I went on youtube thinking, how hard could it be to find Smithers’ act. I’ll just find a guy with a Cantonese family name but a native North American but non-Mexican accent who is in good shape, in Vancouver.

However, I got sidetracked by all the offerings from just a few keywords. This woman cracked me up! 😂

OMG, yes, Yumi Nagashima!

I met her at an open mic gig a couple months ago at a bar in Vancouver called 12 Kings Pub.

She is HILARIOUS. She has an endearing accent and uses it well. She does this bit about how her voice makes people think she's an android, and she just rolls with it lol.

You met her? Cool! It's so great how she covers her mouth to smile (a common thing), but says crazy things first (uncommon per the stereotype).

Following on the craziness theme, this old Twilight Zone seemed appropriate.

It is (arguably) better that SJW types have switched from being improper grammar-Nazis, "OMG, did you hear that guy call Fern a 'she' when Fern prefers 'they' since they is non-gender identified?! I'm gonna call him a white nationalist on Twitter!"

to being public health-Nazis with their social distancing obsession, "OMG did you see how close they were standing?! They could kill somebody! I'm gonna take a picture and put it on Twitter!"
You there, Ephialtes. May you live forever.
