I am just hoping I will be able to get a couple A4000s at fire sale prices

but I wouldn't mind a future where old school MMOs come back in a big way

I grew up in the pacific northwest, but moving to the midwest has completely changed how I feel about winter. The sun shining over fields of white snow is a huge improvement over the mud and rain of the pnw.

Yeah, my po co didn't increase the electric rate, they just increased the "standard connection fee" from $30 to $45. So no amount of cutting back changes the fact that my bill went up a flat $15

haha I discovered this trick for myself when I was in high school 😊
I don't know how it works, but it works

I think I might have a lot from this line 😅 Someday when my kids are old enough, I will pull them out of storage and share them

covid gave me 18 months of alcohol intolerance. A single drink would leave me feeling hungover the next day; two drinks on Friday night would destroy my entire weekend

this story often gets a strong reaction from folks.

I will always hate this dumb seaplane ship.

I love seaplanes and I love star wars, but if you're gonna take a seaplane and shove it into the Star War then you gotta at least make it look a little like a space ship.

And also those cartoonish huge engines make it look like a baby toy airplane.

sometimes I start deleting adjectives and then I'm like, if this post isn't gonna have flavor then maybe I shouldn't post it at all

my ancestors do not listen to me. I have no place to honor them, and I doubt they know to look for me here in Wisconsin, anyways

ghosts pass through my yard like deer in the winter. they stop only a moment to look, then they move on. 10,000 generations of humanity, each one alone

lies in a field in Aberdeen, Washington. But I don't remember the church where the service was performed or the cemetery that holds his mortal remains

maybe he waits there. or maybe he wanders out to sea, where he spent so much of his life. strolling the kelp forests in the pacific abyss

now we drive off in our cars, or catch a plane to some far off place, and our ancestors can't find us anymore

they used to live in our homes, but now we change apartments and houses every few years, and nothing endures between the generations

we don't even know where they lay. My father's father

yeah I read a ton of shit on UBI/cash subsidy studies back in 2020

(now I just take psychic damage whenever someone mentions Andrew Yang)

Scott Santens used to collate a lot of this stuff, but I don't know if he's still at it or not

money gains value when humans trade labor for it. each time a dollar trades hands, energy is injected into the economy and the value of all the dollars goes up

low-velocity money (sitting around in banks) is inflationary. Because it's not adding energy, it's existence devalues the moving money

Tariffs have only taken in about a fifth of what this program would cost, so $400 per person would be about right.
November 19, 2025 at 3:57 AM
actually it wouldn't! studies on the Alaska permanent fund and other cash infusion programs show a deflationary effect

this is because the velocity of money is very high when it's being spent. Each dollar does more than a dollar's worth of "work"
