Going insane with my partner about alignment charts and how any characters (not cosmic forces or monsters lmao) that are Chaotic Evil or Lawful Good are either, one, in a death spiral, two, will be soon shunted out of that alignment and into another one

speaking as someone with abandonment and trust issues (lol) i feel like a factor in luo binghe Collecting Wives like they’re fucking pokemon is

sex is a usually-enjoyable physical activity where it is pretty easy to tell if you are doing a good job

if you’re desperate for validation and have Unbelievably Handsome Face...yeah dude, having sex with anyone who seems interested and available (and then honorably Doing The Right Thing by providing for them) is like...extremely understandable

you add in how xin mo needs the sexual energy and like. he’s getting positive reinforcement on two fronts, and it’s much less risky than getting in fights!

even if Bing-ge’s PIDW wives weren’t petting his hair and calling him a good boy, they’re probably still letting him know in other ways that he is Doing A Good Job and that shit is like heroin

Although we make love to a necrotic economic system, such as capitalism, we wonder why depression stalks the ingenuity of our society.

All natural and technological processes

Proceed in such a way that the availability

Of the remaining energy decreases

In all energy exchanges, if no energy

Enters or leaves an isolated system

The entropy of that system increases

Energy continuously flows from being

Concentrated to becoming dispersed

Spread out, wasted and useless

New energy cannot be created and high grade

Energy is being destroyed

An economy based on endless growth is

(Unsustainable)

The fundamental laws of thermodynamics will

Place fixed limits on technological innovation

And human advancement

In an isolated system, the entropy

Can only increase

A species set on endless growth is

(Unsustainable)

It amazes me that everyday there are new songs being released. All with different lyrics. How are we not out of words to say? I assume one day we will just run out of lyrics and there will be no more songs. This can't go on forever.

My roommate and best friend is moving in with her boyfriend soon (I'm v happy for her), and any time there is even a hint of financial risk my mom starts looking at houses and rent on Zillow and bombarding me with links. I closed one of the links and looked around the area and was immediately like "landlords need to fear for their lives". I mean seriously, look at this shit:

All of the fucking houses in this area (which is bum-fuck nowhere an hour out from SF) are these fucking mcmansions even though most of the people who need homes are single or 2-3 individual family units. And $3300 is "income-restricted affordable housing"?? If that's supposed to mean Section 8, this is a very blatant scam intended to rob government funds. Which I wouldn't care about, if they weren't also funds that the government appropriates from us to pay for things like roads and public service programs.

I have a theory that property management companies and landlords know that the housing bubble is going to burst soon when people can't afford the homes and more of them start sitting empty. My theory is based on what happened with cryptocurrency; specifically, the part where values went up and people played hot potato with the currency knowing it was going to crash, with the goal being to sell it off to some patsy just beforehand to maximize their own profits. I feel like that's what's going to happen here. As the land gets eaten up and people start living in their cars or leaving the state en masse because they cannot afford "market rent" for even the cheapest available units, landlords will start selling the properties off to stupider landlords who are coming in too late in the game just before the hammer falls on the housing market.

There is also the slim chance that public pressure will force our reps to take emergency legislative action (this should already be a state of emergency in California tbh) to reduce rents, either with rent control or with housing credits for renters, which will also crash the housing market and cause the landlords still holding property to hemorrhage money and go into mountains of debt. At which point, new landlords/companies (mostly born from the old companies who sold off before the crash and made millions) will step in and buy those properties at a fraction of the value the last landlords/companies paid and still have a racket of a housing market, but at significantly lower prices. If it's with government credits to renters, they'll still be robbing the government, but at least individuals will be able to afford shelter. At that point, the number of units will matter more than the size and businesses might push for more apartments and condos--which we desperately need.

Either way, this shit is unsustainable and landlords are basically cannibalizing each other the way all capitalists do.

While taking a stroll today I chanced upon a garish, one-eyed minion with a soulless stare in a red santa hat, pinned to a lawn with similarly garish decorations surrounding it. I promptly became convinced this terrifying shrine can simultaneously explain everything and absolutely nothing about our current incomprehensible late-stage-capitalism internet era

I need to go down to the river and take my brain out of my skull and wash it vigorously with sapone di marsiglia to erase all the thoughts im having. rkodio.

I used to wonder if I should have split my blog into final fantasy, wheel of time, and cosmere sideblogs, but I'd never keep up with it. And now I think one big mash is more fun anyway. This zone is built to appeal to ME + anyone who either vibes with or doesn't mind the venn diagram of things I like. Keeps the rent down

at this point making market rate rent requires two jobs, a side hustle, and a sugar daddy
