a vague, broad question I'm pondering – historically, how did cities get wealthy?

I'm most familiar with merchant/port type cities, having been born and raised in one, but surely there are other ways? conquest would've been a thing at some point... innovation, more recently...

it seems nobody I’m following has tweeted about Al-Ma’mun. This guy was like the Pericles of Baghdad, and in a sense we have him to thank for the Baghdad House of Wisdom, creating space for Al-Khwarizmi and friends to translate Aristotle, invent algebra and so on

i'm reminded that, in some ways, to some degree, my tweets were kind of about as good as they are now, but few people noticed until there was more social proof
I still think this, is in a particular sense, my best tweet – I recurringly mention this but hardly anybody else seems to agree with my assessment 😂

I mean this is a pretty decent tweet and it got 3 favs. these days I can post "titty" as a standalone tweet and get like 100 favs. it's challenging to keep perspective

I think I have been struggling to accept the fact that I am much more helpful to strangers than to my friends
sentence reads a little weird...

the fact that my presence, my body of work, etc is more helpful to strangers
it feels weird because sharing my knowledge/expertise freely with friends is my love language

but I'm like, somewhat in denial about the fact that they often don't want it, or aren't interested/ready to receive it
