The thing is we aren't in late capitalism anymore. Haven't been for a while. Capitalism failed for a number of reasons. There were limits to how much debt people could take on to keep buying stuff they couldn't afford which meant there were limits to how much profit people could make, and the people hoarding wealth were too jealous of poor people owning literally anything. So the "ownership economy" ended and we had a return of rent-seeking. Techbros reinvented feudalism just like they copied so many old ideas and pretended they were new.

Technofeudalism has a lot of surface similarities to capitalism, but it is also so much fucking worse.

It's still so strange to me how apparently taboo it is to like a post on someone's Instagram from a month ago when there are posts still circulating on Tumblr from 1550 BCE

My cats have this meow that means "please come with me to fix this" after which they'll lead me to the problem in question, usually a empty (or 'empty') food bowl or a closed door they want open. They look at the 'problem', they look back at me, clear message.

What fascinates me is how this illustrates what they percieve as being in the realm of my 'power.' I control the food, I control the door, sure, but my cats love to sit on the balcony in the sun, and it has happened plenty of times that on a rainy day they come get me, go to the balcony and show me... the rain. "Please fix this" they say. "Please get rid of the wet"

"Silly kitty," I say, "I can't control the rain." I then walk into the shower and turn on the rain.
