 okay but why has nobody ever approached AI from a game design perspective like
 seriously there should be researchers who are multidisciplined in this kind of
 thing

 the only people who believe in "good jobs" and "poor jobs" are people who would  │
 rather pay less                                                                  │
 and, like, yeah pay should correspond to effort. that way if someone like,       │
 doesn't try at all, then they shouldn't be paid very much.                       │
 and yeah sure neurodivergence plays a role, but that's totally accountable-for.  │
 [it's a solvable problem she means]                                              │
 but people deserve to be treated equally. we are all created in kind, after all  │
 (perhaps "equitably" would be better)                                            │
 and right now... the cheapest jobs, AKA the ones who are hiring (sometimes) are  │
 being taken over by people who are WAY overqualified.                            │
 we need to use our highly skilled labor force, not leave it to rot. But there's  │
 money to be made in monopolizing, hence starbucks and walmarts and target (red   │
 walmart) and all of the others, including amazon and greenpeace.                 │
 ... what does greenpeace have to do - shut up you'll see (what? you're getting   │
 off track) [and burning characters, too] right uh the more high skilled people   │
 in low wage positions, the less profit                                           │

 are you about to delete a post that you thought was funny, but actually wasn't
 once you wrote it down and read it to yourself?
 
 STOP
 
 write it down on a post-it and put it under your desk or behind a drawer
 
 put it in a .txt file in a random directory on your computer
 
 send it as a text message to yourself
 
 write it down, take a picture of it, and then burn the paper
 
 y'know, typical stuff like that
 
 do this and I guarantee you won't regret it

 if people pirate media, it's more of an indication that they'd rather spend      │
 their money elsewhere rather than an indictment of their character.              │
 torrenting movies is easy. Kinda makes me think all media should run on a "tip"  │
 system where you pay for better service after receiving service.                 │
 I mean, after all, that's how they justify underpaying restaurant workers,       │
 isn't it?                                                                        │
 "if they want more money, they should work for it"                               │
 yeah, so... maybe we need something more than Marvel, Disney. Maybe we need      │
 more cool, small games from designers who believe in what they're doing. Maybe   │
 copyright holders should demand a standardized cut, rather than exclusive        │
 distribution rights. maybe maybe maybe.                                          │
 truth is nothing will be solved unless the problem is addressed at the root.     │
 For every hole you patch in the boat, there's a guy walking around with a        │
 hammer.                                                                          │
 Honestly... I don't believe there's any reason for someone to be a millionaire   │
 except to compete on the "wealth" leaderboards.                                  │

 don't give up!
 
 I know that feeling!
 
 it is defeated with persistence!
 
 don't give up!
 
 you can make it!
 
 there's always tomorrow!
 
 so don't give up!

a picture of an anime girl looking at the number 2024 with an empty progress bar underneath it.  she blinks, there is darkness.  she re-opens her eyes, and she looks at the number 2024 with an 80% full progress bar underneath it.  she gazes on impassively.
