More vs. better
More vs. better https://seths.blog/2023/09/more-vs-better/ If every building in the shopping district in a big city was owned by one landlord, rents would go up. So would the prices of everything sold. The landlord would keep a significant percentage of each store’s profits and innovation would suffer as well. Google’s monopoly is real. They pay Apple more than a million dollars an hour to be the default search engine on phones. It’s more profitable for Apple to threaten to build a search engine than it is for them to actually run one. Google overpays for the default status because their hegemony gives advertisers fewer options. And by controlling the flow of attention across the web, they can dictate how websites work and what our experience is online. Ever since Adam Smith began writing about capitalism, it’s been understood that monopolies are a defect in the structure of free markets. Locking in an advantage gives the monopolist the power to ignore its customers and we all suffer as a result. A company grows by getting ever better at serving its customers, its vendors and its employees. A company becomes a monopoly by becoming ever better at becoming a monopoly. Few companies have done a better job of marketing the benefits of their monopoly than Google. They rarely charge their users, but offer free software and engaging stories instead. But they have relentlessly grabbed more and more of our attention, and used it to create a sinecure that costs all of us. It’s not just ecosia, duckduckgo and kagi that are paying for this monopoly. When a company can shift the rules and focus on more instead of better, we all pay.

i've said it before but it will forever and always make me insane that jacob's ending is to join the cullens for the sake of bella not having to give anything up. they find out jake will be immortal & tied to renesmee forever, so bella gets to smile & say "my family is finally complete! ^-^" but jake already HAS a family. he has a father and 2 sisters. quil, embry, seth and sam are like his brothers. jacob and leah were planning to run away together. he's always been welcome in emily's home, sue has been a family friend since before his birth. bella abandons her mortality by choice because she feels no connection to the people around her, but jacob has really strong bonds. it's clear that every character we meet in la push is like family to him, he's an active member of the community. jake would've graduated high school and been a mechanic, would've grown into a young man. a good friend, a fun uncle, a present son. he's set up to have such a rich life. and he's just magically compelled to give that up. beyond his control, he loses sight of everything, because his high school crush's baby is now the singular most important thing to him. he's perpetually 18 with his perpetually 18 year old girlfriend, running around vancouver or alaska or wherever with the girl who friendzoned him at 16 & her in-laws (who were antagonistic to him for months). and i'm just supposed to say omg yay now he doesn't have to let go of bella! everyone is happy! it's complete madness

Education is free learning is expensive
Education is free, learning is expensive https://seths.blog/2025/06/education-is-free-learning-is-expensive/ That’s a complete reversal of how it used to be. Colleges used to be measured by how many books they had in the library. Access to courses was restricted. If knowledge was power, controlling access was essential. They even call it the ‘admissions office.’ Part of the status that comes from higher education is that they controlled who could find the information and who was left behind. Today, of course, all of the information is there, a click away. Billions of people have a smartphone with access to everything ever recorded and written, but also to a trillion dollar AI system that can offer informed guidance. So why hesitate? Why do we get stuck or avoid even acknowledging that it’s possible? Because learning is hard. It creates tension. It takes time. Most of all, it requires a commitment to becoming someone else, a bet we’re making that might not turn out the way we hope. The system has called our bluff. If you want to learn, learn. But we pay for it with effort.

Seth Jarvis smut #18 please 🫶🏻
pairing : seth jarvis x reader 
w.c. : 1k
warnings : unprotected p in v, seth has a mommy kink
✧・゚: *✧・゚:*
Seth gets in a mood after a loss. You can’t blame him - the longer the year goes on, the more and more each win or loss has an effect on whether or not the team goes to playoffs. He’s always too hard on himself and agonizes over the mistakes he made, when you know that often it is out of his control. He’s an athlete, not a superhuman and you have to remind him of that a few times a week. 
He comes home like a kicked puppy, and you know the result of the game instantly whether or not you were watching. He’s either excited and full of energy, or drained and his bags and gear get dropped by the door. 
There’s one thing you accidentally stumbled on months ago when you tried to console him after a bad loss. It’s something that tumbled out of his mouth before he could stop it and from there, it became a normal part of your routine. You found that taking care of him in that way is one of the only things that brings him out of his funk, and frankly, it’s fucking hot. 
He’s on top of you, your sweaty bodies pressing together as he thrusts slowly and deeply into you. It’s sweet and you let him use you to calm himself, your hands running gently through his hair, finger-combing and twisting through the locks. His mouth is attached to your breast, sucking at the nipple and running his tongue over the hardened bud. It’s delicious and you focus on the feeling of him against you, on you, in you.
It’s when he presses his face into your neck and lets out a particularly soft whimper that you hear the word that makes your body freeze.
“Mommy…”
It’s a mumble, and you question if you even heard it correctly, but you know you did when he also freezes, his hips abruptly stopping their movement. 
“Seth?” You question softly, and when he groans and buries his head even deeper into your shoulder you just laugh quietly. Your hands move from his hair to his cheeks, pulling his face up so he has to look at you. His deep brown eyes always make you melt, and the same happens now with his cheeks squished between your palms. He looks embarrassed - his cheeks deep red and his eyes darting around. 
You choose to place a gentle kiss on his lips, which he accepts. It’s your first form of reassuring him, but he still feels the need to apologize.
“I’m sorry,” he looks back up at you when you separate.
“You’re sorry?” you smile at him like you can’t believe he’s apologizing while he’s still deep inside of you. 
“Yea… that was probably really fucking weird. I don’t know why I said it… I didn’t even realize-”
You cut him off with another kiss, this time deeper and longer. He whines into your lips, his hips hitting a few more shallow thrusts like he can’t help himself. 
“It’s not weird, baby,” you say as you pull away from him. His lips are wet and such a pretty pink that you have a hard time focusing on the conversation at hand. “Do you have a mommy kink?” You caress the skin on his face.
“Ugh, I was kind of hoping it would never come up,” he groans and tries to drop his face, but you catch it.
“Seth,” you sigh. “I want you to tell me those things. Even if it’s not something you think I’ll like or you think is embarrassing. I want to make you feel good, and that means being open with me and not deciding how I’m gonna feel before you ever even tell me.”
“Okay…”
“Do you want to try it out tonight?” you offer. His eyes dart back to you so fast it makes you laugh. His whole demeanor immediately shifts once you offer. 
“Really?”
“Yes, baby. You want to come? Then you better make mommy feel good. Be a good boy,” the word feels awkward on your tongue, but you have plenty of time to learn and it seems like it does the trick for now.
“Fuckkkkkk. Yes. Please, mommy,” he starts to move again and you let his head fall to your chest. His eyebrows are furrowed and the soft whimpers he makes as he thrusts into you are sparking the pleasure deep in your belly. He has a renewed vigor to his movements and he adjusts his angle to hit your g-spot. He’s holding onto you for dear life, hands squeezing hard into your soft flesh. You’re moaning too now as he hits the exact right spot and the slapping sound of his hips hitting your ass fills the room. It might not be your thing, but seeing your boyfriend so turned on from it is what gets you off.
You’re shivering as your orgasm washes over you. It’s pure, unadulterated pleasure that makes your pussy clench and unclench on him. It’s so fucking good and warm that you cry out as he continues his ministrations and works you through it.  His hips are losing their steady rhythm - the feeling of you squeezing down on him is enough to make him come right then and there, but he wants to be good for his mommy and follow the rules.
“Mommy,” he says in an elongated, breathy moan. “Can I please come?”
“Go on, baby. Fill me up,” you whisper in his ear. 
His whole body shudders and he comes, painting your walls with his release and a deep groan. It’s only then that he can fully relax, squishing your body with his, but you don't mind. You lay there in comfortable silence in the darkened room, your hand returning to caress the hair on his head. He stays inside of you, plugging you full of his come as he softens.
“We can talk about it more in detail later. Go to sleep now, baby,” you kiss the top of his head as you fall asleep with him in your arms.
