  • It should be, but vampires are alluring which belies their evil. That’s the cautionary part of the fiction.

    Is Bezos a soulless ghoul cannibalizing the festering, necrotic wound of poverty which he grows larger every day? Yes, and in no way can that be conflated to being sexy.

    Just don’t stress so much. Take the time to enjoy your hobbies or just relax. Your body needs it.

    Also, find an extra 4 hours every day to exercise, meditate, and get a full night’s sleep. But also make sure to socialize with friends and family. Oh, and eat right. And clean up a bit, your environment is a big factor.

    But don’t stress!


  • Real estate is a good example of the trickiest thing about “simple” wealth tax.

    I bought a house, and 20 years later I have to pay more taxes because my neighbourhood is more desirable?

    Okay, easy solution, you get one free house you need to reside in for x% of your time per year.

    But say I bought a painting from a local artist, even a friend, and decades go by and they’ve gone on to become ultra famous. Do I now have to pay more tax because I possess something that has become valuable?

    Obviously thats a very unlikely scenario, but you can see the principle issue.





  • Voting for government is not “who do you think should be in charge” it’s “these are your options now”. Your time to change those options is way way before the election.

    Not voting is voting “ehh, just whoever everyone else thinks.”

    Abstaining isn’t the big brain move you think it is.





  • Republican America is not a loaded gun. It’s a deranged rabid coyote. It seems so obvious: don’t fight the rabid coyote. No one will win. But we’re trapped here with it. Its taking its bites out of everyone close to it, and everyone else. What the fuck else are we supposed to do? Lie down and take it? Stand on the table and try to keep away? No one is coming to save us. This will not go away. They will not surrender.

    The only way out is through; for Americans to start their civil war to disrupt their regime or, if they can manage it, figure some other way to oust their fascist government and their cult. To all the Americans fighting the good fight, keep it up, the world literally needs you.

    The Republicans have already proven the laws mean nothing. They’re already boasting plans to stay for a 3rd term. There’s no waiting this out.

    So, bring it on, you fascist fucks, let’s fucking go.
