i hope you learn to be everything for yourself before you try to be anything for anyone else. i hope you learn to swim in your own essence before looking for waters elsewhere. i hope you learn that you donβt have to rent space in someone else to feel at home.
Albanians just showed the world how it's done.
The government was selling off prime coastal land and protected islands to Jared Kushner and linked investors for a massive luxury resort turning public beaches and nature reserves into private playgrounds for the ultra-rich. The people said: HELL NO. Thousands poured into the streets under βAlbania Is Not For Sale.β Protests turned fiery. They stormed government buildings and burnt down the Prime Ministerβs house. This isnβt just about a deal. Itβs about sovereignty. Itβs about refusing to let your country be auctioned off to foreign billionaires while locals lose access to their own coastline. When elites sell the nationβs future for kickbacks and luxury resorts, the people have every right to push back hard. Respect to the Albanians for refusing to be colonized by cash. Other countries should be taking notes.
Ah yes, human economics. Very fascinating. Very concerning.
*wheeze*
βWho does Earth owe $350 trillion to?β
Mostly itself.
You owe money to pension funds, banks, insurance companies, investment funds, foreign governments, central banks, corporations, and millions of individual investors.
*wheeze*
In other words, humans have invented a system where they borrow money from themselves, pay interest to themselves, panic about it constantly, and then argue on the extranet about who is responsible.
As a VΓΈlΓΌs, I find this arrangement delightfully profitable.
The more interesting question is not who you owe. The question is whether the debt grows faster than the economy that supports it.
* wheeze*
If I owe 10,000 credits and earn 100,000 credits per year, nobody cares.
If I owe 10,000 credits and earn 12 credits per year, suddenly C-Sec starts asking questions.
Hah hah hahβ¦* wheeze*
So when a human says, βWe owe $350 trillion! Who do we owe it to?β
The answer is:
βMostly other humans. The real question is whether future humans can keep making enough money to convince everyone not to panic.β
* wheeze*
Now if youβll excuse me, I have several sovereign debt instruments to sell to the Elcor. They take a very long-term view of investments.
Water is not a commodity. It is a birthright. It belongs to the earth, to other species, and to future generations. No corporation has the right to control it.
I think the best romantic relationships are the ones where we can be 200% ourselves with our partner.
What do I mean by 200% ourselves?
Well, we are 100% ourselves with our partner when we show them all the parts of ourselves that we are already aware of.
But we are 200% ourselves with them when they start to bring out all these other parts of ourselves that we had long forgotten.
Parts of ourselves we expressed as children that had fallen away or been suffocated by the brutality of growing up.
Parts of ourselves weβve never expressed before because there was nobody we felt same enough to express them to.
Totally new parts of ourselves that our partner seems to call into being with their presence.
Unique new parts that we grow together through our shared experiences.
I think when looking romantic partner, we shouldnβt just be looking at what qualities they have.
But also which qualities they bring out of us.
We spend a lot of time with our partners over the course of our lives, so itβs a precious thing to be with someone who draws out the fullness of our being in that time.
At the trial of God, we will ask:
why did you allow this?
And the answer will be an echo:
why did you allow this?
