Literally anywhere in the late 1800s-early 1900s is not a great place to be for the most part:

1890 - Congrats everyone has polio and women have no rights!

1900 - Cool now women still don’t have rights but we’re going to pretend like they do and also if you’re older than 3 years old good luck in the coal mines

1910 - Congrats there’s a giant war going on. If you’re a white male over the age of like 16 you’re going to die in a gigantic war and if you’re a minority male you’re going to die in a gigantic war with crappier equipment and a shitty burial (women still have no rights btw)

1920 - Good news: the gigantic war is over! Bad news: everyone you know died and women still have no rights

1930 - You thought you were done? The Germans decide they didn’t get their butts kicked hard enough so some Austrian painter dude decides to try and take over the world again!!!!!! If you’re a soldier, you die in combat (bonus: sadistic biological warfare was just invented) by being bombed or mustard-gassed! If you’re a civilian, you can avoid the mustard gas but they’re still probably going to Blitzkrieg the shit out of you

1940 - more war (this dark-haired hater of people with dark hair really doesn't give up), etc. sarcastic remark about women not having rights for the fifth time
