the distortion of "there is potential profit we did not earn" as "there is money we lost" is fascinating and disgusting to me. "megamediaconglomerate lost $1,000,000,000 to piracy this year" is a flat out lie. it is not true. they did not have a billion dollars, that they now do not have. they felt entitled to one billion dollars, that they did not have, and still do not have. it's an infuriating perversion of the truth

I love people with obscure knowledge or useless academic insights. I want to hear your analysis of lighting in Ratatouille. Tell me about the history of soda pop or the references to classical mythology in Macbeth. I want to know about the underlying homoerotic context of that 1930s sci-fi paperback. I think all knowledge is worthwhile knowledge. Explain to me the ecosystems that komodo dragons inhabit. Don't be afraid to learn for the sake of learning.

shut up about the economy. shut the fuck up about the economy, what’s the economy ever done for me, i can’t get a job with a living wage and it costs a week’s wages to get a single train ticket to see my parents and most things in my budget are that cheap cuz they’re made with slave labour and i can still get fired for being trans if i’m ever hired at all and quite frankly the illusion of choice isn’t worth the suffering of others or the death of the planet, shut up about the fucking economy i do not worship the squiggly lines i have basic fucking empathy i want to exist without harming others. i want to exist without harming others!!! i want no one to ever be hurt again!!!!!
