I think when you correctly identify a trauma that is the base of a woe of yours it should just disappear. It should be like "aaahh. you got me" and vanish and leave 100 dollars behind

SUPERNATURAL 14.09 — The Spear

[mynameisalexdude]

pjo/hoo fans, listen to me. *shakes you* listen to me. read the kane chronicles. read it. have you read it? read it again. i mean it. there's other reasons, but the main one is that i'm out here making genious posts about tkc, and there's so few people to appreciate my massive brain.

reasons you might want to read tkc:

narrated by two different characters. the framing device is that it's being audio recorded, and you can often see snippets of them being like "don't look at me like that sadie" or "carter just kicked me for saying that"

the god tier character that is sadie kane. she's so in touch with her emotions and unafraid to express them, it's refreshing. she's only 13 in the beginning of the trilogy, and she's so ready to tell people off for being pricks. she chews bubblegum and dyes her hair and she's even british. makes fun of her brother. consistently the funniest character in the series, all while not losing impact as a dramatic figure

the gods are seen really differently than in rr's other books. in pjo, the gods are these all-powerful beings and we mustn't anger them. in tkc, they're your buds. your parents have probably had a fistfight in an applebees parking lot with at least two gods. you see a god for drinks every thursday.

gods literally inhabit the human character's bodies, it's like a venom situation. it makes up for some very funny moments.

where pjo/toa is about acknowledging your family has problems and at times, you're fully right to distance yourself from them, because they're horrible people, tkc is about reconnecting with your family again. it's about finding stability in your family, and how they're, in the end, always the ones that are left there for you

incredibly interesting magic system. they have infrastructure built all over the world. not just two wands (rather a wand and a staff) but also a whole magician's kit.

cast is near-entirely made up of people of colour. two main characters that are both mixed, and the series focuses on how their different appearances affect how people treat them. the magicians are mostly descendants of egyptian rulers

canon polyam couple!!

in conclusion: EVERYBODY READ TKC NOW

a side effect of unwanted ai chatbots being forced into every app in existence is that i've come to despise the shape of a four point star. every single ai thing uses it as an icon and now when i see one i just get annoyed

This hurts in an incredibly gratifying yet soul crushing way. We're over. I'm moving on. I hope that they are too, but keeping the pining poetry in my pocket so I can catch feelings for her all over again won't help with the healing process. That's been in my notes since 2022. Three years.

Concept: conservationist metroidvania where the only way to get the best ending is to avoid killing any of the endangered local wildlife, which gets progressively harder throughout the game because each mobility upgrade creates new ways to accidentally explode critters.

So let me get this straight

Let me get one thing straight and two things gay, if you will.

The parasite class don't have cash. Like, at all. They don't get paid. That's part of how they get out of taxes.

Which is why millionaires are not "the rich" when we say "eat the rich". They have actual cash and paychecks. You're about to understand in a second.

They instead have stocks and investments. Literally the entire wealth of the parasite class is stocks and investments.

So when tax season comes around they don't have to pay taxes on those stocks and investments. Why? Because their worth isn't guaranteed. "Oh I could wake up tomorrow and it can be worth nothing. I shouldn't pay taxes on something of variable value like that."

But then how do they buy shit? When Musk bought Twitter he needed cash to buy Twitter, but I just said he doesn't have cash. How did he buy Twitter.

Well they can put those investments up as collateral and then get a loan on them. So you don't have to pay taxes on it because it's worth isn't set in stone. But you can pull out loans on it even though it's worth isn't defined?

And the banks feel secure in this because if the worth is dipping they can just sue them for the money or sell the investments and keep the money.

But when Twitter wasn't doing good Musk just did some really sketchy billionaire money stuff with shell companies.

I actually had to ask AI to try to explain it to me because this billionaire money math only proves money is fake and hurts my brain so much.

So Musk created 3 shell companies under the ecosystem XCorp

X Holding 1- parent company

X Holding 2- merged with Twitter so they own Twitter now

X Holding 3- dealt with the banks to borrow the money for Twitter

Why is this important?

Because if everything breaks and Tesla stocks tank and Twitter tanks. The banks are FUCKED. They can only sue X Holding 3 to try to get their money back but X Holding 3 doesn't own anything. It's a financial black box.

They agreed to this sketchy deal because 1) Musk led them on with a high interest rate like a carrot on a stick and 2) they thought he was a safe bet

But clearly he's not. Everything is burning. He's a shitty developer and a shitty businessman and the banks are left holding the bag.

Because money is fake. Billionaires do some really weird fuckshit that make you realize money is fake. That's the difference between a millionaire and a member of the parasite class.

But back to the point.

He's allowed to borrow money from the banks using his investments as collateral and when everything goes to shit the banks are fucked. But he's not required to pay taxes on his investments because "the value could change"?

I see how it is billionaire monopoly money only matters when they need real money to actually buy things. It doesn't matter when tax season comes along and the government is asking how much moneys they have for taxes. Even though that's effectively their spending money. Because they don't actually use cash spending money.

If the entire internet fake money system died tomorrow they'd be fucked because none of their money is REAL. It's all pretend numbers.

[mynameisalexdude]

Anyone else a little tired of posts saying that you should analyze why you have a particular kink? I’m not saying it isn’t valuable to analyze the societal context that a kink exists in, as nothing exists in a vacuum.

But I’m willing to bet that a lot of people with unusual kinks have spent a lot of time analyzing why they’re into something. I know I’ve analyzed my feedism kink backwards and forwards while figuratively tap dancing. I still don’t know exactly why I’m into it. Is it because it’s taboo? That could be part of it.

But at a certain point analysis becomes pointless anxiety and guilt. I do my best to engage in this kink ethically, so at the end of the day, I simply don’t want to waste my energy on analyzing this or my other kinks.

It is what it is, and given that I’ve liked feedism since I hit puberty, I don’t think this kink is going away
