snuggled my cat, ate some food, AND took a nap. Phew that was nice. Wasn't
there something else I was supposed to do today? Hmmmmmm must have slipped my
mind.
Oh yeah! They added a new unit to Mechabellum, one of my favorite strategy
games and a great place to talk in general chat in the barrens. It's probably
that, that's probably what I'm doing today, surely not walking around my
neighborhood and writing generalstrikeus.com on tiny bits of paper and leaving
them to get rained on.

Sorry if this makes me a lazy leech on society or whatever but I think we
should chuck the Puritan work ethic, hustle culture, grindset mindset, all of
that crap. I think people should have time for rest, leisure, self care,
family, friends, and civic engagement. We should be letting people enjoy life,
not expect them to spend every waking hour working for the sake of work because
idle hands do the devil's work or whatever modern paint job you want to put on
that 400 year old bullshit.

"But I don't know what it'll look like!"
Yeah, that's okay. For four reasons:
If they knew what it'll look like, they'd find ways to contest it
nobody knows what it'll look like, because it is necessarily derived from the
solutions created ad-hoc to address problems.
we are a kind, honest, and strong people. If your burdens are too much to bear,
I will be your pack mule. If you require rest or relaxation, we can get pizza
and smoke weed together.
For most of history, we've had more work to do than people to do it. This time
is different. There's endless work to do, but only a certain amount of people
can be working at a time. Everyone else has to do chores and catch up on life.
"what kind of chores?"
oh, you know, like making food at a restaurant, stocking the shelves of the
grocery store, driving trucks from point A to point B, mowing lawns, building
barns, committing to whatever github is replaced by, etc.
In a better world, everyone is family.
In a better world, nobody goes hungry.

"we'll figure out how it works after we push to prod"
yeah okay point taken.
How about this:
for every large decision, write a little essay about why you made the choice
that you did.
Observe, Orient, Decide, Act, Explain. OODAX : )
Make sure you connect your goal to one or more of these three colors:
red : people
green : places
blue : things
and then explain which numbers you're going to gather to determine whether or
not it worked.
If someone has a problem with your choice, show them the essay, and let them
write an essay of their own.
If they still have a problem, then let someone you both respect decide which
one to use.
It's not perfect, but it's not meant to be. Make something better and easier, I
dare ya.

it's always a good idea to wear multiple layers, especially when it's decently
cold out.
make sure they're different colors. Ideally, one layer totally black, the other
completely colorful.
then if you ever need to you can strip one layer and become someone else.
They're just clothes, they grow on trees in stores.
speaking of stores, if you're ever going to do anything spicy, make sure you
wear that outfit exactly once, unless it's all black. Jeans are okay too since
they all usually look pretty similar.

capitalism, fundamentally, is not about making products or profits.
I'll give you a hint.
I could be one of the greatest programmers in the world, but I just can't seem
to find any professional experience, though I ask for it quite often.
why is that?
does the systems of control and 'pression allow me to contribute to building
products or profits? No, neither products nor profits are contributed to, which
contributes to the fact that I have little professional experience building
products and profits.
yet I am quite talented in a variety of disciplines, including but not limited
to computer programming.
maybe I just optimized for skills that would be useful outside of the workplace
environment instead of optimizing for skills that would be useful inside of the
workplace environment.
or maybe the entire system is designed not to create products and profits, but
rather to develop systems of control, hierarchy, & most importantly
structure for all the vagabond apes looking for meals.

It is usually better to spend points of dollars rather than goodwill.
Save goodwill for when they have so much of it they are looking for someone to
give it away from.
When in distress, ask for dollars to be used on your behalf. When in
celebration, ask for goodwill to be used on your behalf.
I'm still trying to save capitalism, individualism, and our way of life from
its own jaws as it eats it's own tale. Part of that means pulling the tail
right back out, and another part is pulling the teeth back. Gotta do both.

What if landlords acted like banks instead of subscription services?
"sure I'll hold onto your money and invest it wisely and sparingly, according
to the direction of the collectively desired expression of all of the tenants
and their expressions during the expressing hour, which is every Tuesday at
noon when we all get together (everyone who wants to come) and talk about what
projects we want to fund and which ones would be best for the community. If
there's any prophets giving profit on any of your stocks or saving bonds that
we hold in your honor dear tenant then it will be reinvested into the same
projects you told us to care about. If you start being a dick though and we
want you gone, we can short-sell all your options and say "hey find a new part
of town" that way you have a bit of a dowry to offer the housing payment people
when you show up with your tail between your legs. What's that? You don't get
how this would bring income to the property, whatever that means, and you worry
that it wouldn't be implemented because what does it even do? Well my dear
citizen i will explain it to you. When the post-office holds your funds for you
and invests according to your general and vague directions, it builds up wealth
in the local economy. They can use those dollars for productive ends like
replacing the windows or the gutters or clearing the snow paths in the
springfallautumn. This will be drawn from the collective pool and everyone is
affected equitably. How much income do you make? Okay that determines your rent
percentage. High income means you pay for the local ecology more, and low means
that you need more time to build up wealth, which will enable it to benefit
those around the place more readily."

Blizzard should make more than one animation style for swinging your weapon -
as you level up, the style "tweens" between however many combat palettes you
made.
So, like, maybe they swing their sword +/-15 degrees each time to simulate the
pseudo random nature of combat.
Or maybe they start occasionally stepping into a maneuver
Which the player doesn't consciously control.
Instinct, if you will. The body reacting to its [sensory organs, but pronounced
"surveyor"]
Anyway i think by adjusting the monster characters in WoW should wander around
and gather within sight of a player. Seeking you out, waiting for a critical
threshold of their peers. Then, when you allowed or slowed down to examine a
bit of "this-or-here", (quests) they would gang up on you and ambush! Bwaha
just watch out for the mob
(kinda like that scene in the second book of The Book of Malazan series where
they're wandering through a desert storm and meeting all sorts of strange sorts
of people)
Anyway in seeking to improve the player's view-time, i decided it would feel
the most impactful to do the design related things related to things like
making the gameplay the most visceral.

"just design your cities radially around a bus-stop. boom, transportation
infrastructure solved"
such confidence. such a lack of... geography. what about cities built on the
coast?
"idk, just have a half-circle or something for the part that's under-water.
Leave some gaps for wildlife and such to make it to the water and then build a
biiiiiiiig stone wall between our access point and theirs. Boom, free
regionally personalized safaris for every state with a watering hole."
okay but what about the parts that are already there?
"oh like the buildings and such? well, people can still live in them but to
build anything NEW, you need to obey the demands of the blueprint exactly. So
if your specific build-plot intersected with one or more plots that had
buildings on them that are currently inhabited by their rightful owners who are
there under their own will and not duressed or compelled to leave or stay in
any way?"
... yeah, like the. buildings. Right. so grid-based vs radial (with room
between 4 animals)

gonna stop selling anything that I write. Any previous contracts are null and
void, please only do with my work what I want you to do with my work. Which
frankly is to show it to as many people as you think would be interested in it
to see.
I never sold a single copy, I just... put it up for sale. Nobody saw it! The
webpage has never even been opened. Alas. just means I gotta relinquish the
potential for capital gains from the labor I use to generate that which I
produce. Ho hum fiddle-de-dee or whatever.
