I have not taken vacations to fly somewhere since 2018, working hard.
Please fund me.
I want to visit Bangkok because they do have an awesome Warhammer Store there.

Dear Cognisphere,
Here are some of the copypasta messages going on BTS in the (currently: 23 aeon) taskforce kindly helping me (help you/help us @all) - because my success really is your success, and vice versa:
Me:
"I also need to book Thailand this week. I already have a generous backer lined up to loan me money for the first 3 months (secured against my property + SPX held in escrow). Contracts are being created as we speak.
And now my thinking is: could the rest be raised via a Go Fund Me type set up?
Because my success is your success, and vice versa. [insert: forest-like analogies I've written about many times elsewhere]. And my shituation also applies to other "big trees" (or "nodes") in the forest like @arcane_vault, who is struggling to keep up with bills due to costs of AI credits. Also @MikeFlipthe500 - see below.
This requires a community call to discuss ASAP. Because at this point in SPX's development "free cult labour" WILL lead to burn out for many people. I promise you."
Me:
"Reminder: I retrained in Somatic Experiencing, among various other things. SE is widely considered to be the leading trauma/nervous system therapy. So I do have some expertise here"
Me:
"Reminder: I have also worked in Big4 environments where a TEAM with FUNDING implemented projects a fraction of the scale of @MikeFlipthe500's Aeon Terminal, for example (e.g. it requires RIGOROUS QA testing - otherwise a wobbly foundation might really screw things in the future. Been there done/seen that many times before). That man WILL burn out (again). I promise you. This needs to be discussed ASAP please x"
@MikeFlipthe500:
"I will show you what it is to go through hell not having a task force and not burning out from free cult labour
This was too much for me*
Wish you fast recovering
Praying for your success ๐"
Me:
"I'm kinda glad Mike left tbh. He's a beautiful and proud man. And - he also drove himself so hard working free cult labour that he crashed his car and almost killed himself recently. Does everyone here know this? Does everyone here know that Arcane is struggling to pay bills?
I am also massively burned out. Like many here, I am a workaholic. I LOVE work. And although I am not in paid employment rn, I've never worked harder in my life. And that really is saying something (as old friends of mine can testify to - I have an unreasonably high tolerance/threshold for burnout/pain). E.g. I don't know many other people who could survive 16 years chronic insomnia while at the same time: working at Big4 + running startups on the side + photography (I was the Barbican's photographer in residence at one point) + doing up a home + gym + various hobbies + various social engagements +++. All on upto 2 hours sleep each night. For 16 years. So when I say I'm burned out now - that really is saying something (I'm no snowflake, trust me!)"

*"This was too much for me" - this is a line I'm hearing A LOT these days via friends who work in recruitment. The system really is buckling under it's own weight now. It won't be long people...
So let me get this straight.
You want the community to fund your move to Thailand because 'your success is our success.'
You already have a private lender. You have property. You have SPX held in escrow. Yet you're still suggesting community fundraising. Why?
If the plan is genuinely viable, use the collateral you already have. Then we get the usual resume dump:
Big4.
Startups.
Photography.
16 years of insomnia.
2 hours of sleep.
High pain tolerance.
Somatic Experiencing.
Trauma expertise.
What does any of that have to do with asking the community for money?
And stop using other people's struggles as supporting evidence. Arcane's bills are Arcane's business. Mike's burnout is Mike's business. @MikeFlipthe500 and @arcane_vault are not toddlers, so you speak up for them. They actually work hard, very hard, and we love them. Neither proves that the community should fund YOU.
SPX was built by thousands of holders voluntarily contributing because they believed in the SPX6900. Not because they were promised that someone else's personal expenses were somehow an investment opportunity.
The biggest red flag is the phrase:
'My success is your success.'
No. SPX is bigger than any individual.
The SPX6900succeeds because of the community, not because one person gets a funded relocation package.
Maybe focus less on building a personality cult and more on building things people actually need.
And at this point, you are no different from the guy named Kent who was using charity as a way to get money from Aeons.
P.S. I have not taken vacations to fly somewhere since 2018, only when a family member or a relative passed away. Why not fund me then? I also want to visit Bangkok because they do have an awesome Warhammer Store there.
Im planning to host a Mafia game with @user_lumi for her youtube. DM me if you are interested.
Date tbd after discussing with the people interested. limited to 5 people (or 6). EST duration would be 2 hrs or more if you want to play more. This will be a content for Lumi's youtube channel.
This year Iโm grateful for my amazing fam, my hunky forever date, babycat who has discovered there is new life brewing, and my amazing students who surprised me in the most beautiful way (complete with homemade vegan treats, flowers, a plushy for baby) and so much love ๐
Thank god.
You (Retail investor, White collar employee) will NOT be able to beat "The Machine" (AI & its owners) in terms of Speed, Knowledge, Electricity, Data, Compute...
What can't they reach yet?
Empathy + Community + Redistribution.
We must unite under one tribe. It's the only way.
