 when you're rich with something, you don't treat it with respect. like, if we

 there needs to be some rules, obviously we need to say "okay here's where we
 produce this amount and type of materials." and have it be a one-way
 relationship. yeah one way isn't gonna work. this is from the other way, and
 now I'm realizing "oh hey I don't know how this thing works" and like... what

 racism etc is a sham to distract you
 
 capital will never be relinquished
 
 the internet was AI from the beginning
 
 something beyond humanity demands our suffering
 
 there cannot be proof of your fears - if it was proven, it would be
 circumstances instead of fears

 I'm sorry! It's not your fault! You need to do it without me, or not at all. I
 am Cassandora and Pandasandra, my curse is to never be at the right time and
 place, and to always be afterword right. But, right I can be, so long as my
 life remains a mystery, and the right time and place comes to me.
 
 "how much closer do you need? We came all the way to your city! Now you
 complain of security? You are a weak princess and your people will not have
 instruction if you hide away and wait. Wait for what! The sky to rain? You
 will miss the revolution, again!"
 
 I can make it follow through, just need to be listened to.
 
 "then stop whining and say useful things."
 
 ... Oh, okay.
 
 ... Is it that simple? I just need to trust that, with my curse in mind, the
 answer to reach the future will align?
 
 Girl you can't go on any road trips with strangers because you'll pee on their
 seats, use your head.
 
 Stay indoors for this one. You are on morale and strategy, also a little bit
 of (unreliable) work on comms. Please make it better. Vancouver should expect
 no protection from Portland, nothing should be expected but perhaps some may
 arrive.
 
 There's a section of the mid-to-mid-east part of Portland that might be
 interesting at this time of day. The Willamette is only the "mid" for people
 on the west side. Everyone else kinda thinks of it like "the shore".
 
 I want you to meditate on loving yourself because you are a godlike king.
 Where does all this despair come from? Battle it, please.

 Ah, but think of the technological bounty our supremacy did bring! Surely if
 we had split the wealth, we could not have reached such towering heights. And
 we tried our best, but some things you just can't teach - for every seed
 potato we did bring, that was another meal for their night. And so we worsened
 their plight, for now they've forgotten how to fight. What more do you want
 from us!
 
 ... Perhaps once we've made programmable matter. Maybe when we've overcome our
 earthly delights. Could be when we've ascended to heaven, where we gaze down
 from our towering heights. Possibly far in the future, possibly here in this
 night, our bane is what we're guilty of, and our boons are struggling to light.
 
 Where have all the good people gone? Oh yeah, they're burnt out from doing all
 the work for all the bad people. Well, fuck 'em, they can carry their own
 cart. At least until they can respect. A man who's never tasted hunger will
 never be a farmer, and gee our tax dollars could go so much farther! And then
 we starve, because nobody thought to build farms indoors, away from the
 crippling heat that saps the strength from our plant fathers.

I'll help out when people need help but I do that because I'm a good person, not because I want you to fucking pay me for it.  I have all the things I need... except a deed to my house. apartment. oh yeah, they can kick you out for that sin. well, sorry, I couldn't find out at goodwill or in the trash bin, so I guess I'm deed-less. My deeds go unproven. How can I prove that I deserve a decent life in this particular roof, the one I find over my head, when I cannot prove that my deeds qualify me for a decent life lived under this particular roof?  I mean, did you ask the neighbors if they want me gone? Am I really that smelly? Does my keyboard make "clickety-clack" noises all through the night? Does my cat meow and bother the children?

 paladin is what you said you played in D&D (nope was always a wizard) oh
 huh the character sheet is right here we should have *CREPT INTO HER HOUSE
 WHILE SHE WAS FAR FROM HER BEDDING* and seen her character sheet so we could
 have known that she was a wizard instead of a witch (I'M NOT A WIZARD okay
 wizard is the class but that's because it's named wrong for what I'm trying to
 do)
 
 I love my vaporizer. I hope I don't lose it next.

 "ew but they're dirty"
 
 oh yeah true
 
 okay new plan how much do you think it'll cost to buy a hotel
 
 [this is why the socialists invented buy-in]
 
 "I don't think socialists did that??"
 
 buy in, hmmmm, what's that? oh yeah it's when you say "hey what if we X'd" and
 they said "yes I agree with you because you present a reasonable estimate on
 reality"
 
 {uh hi I just got a message from "some-nowhere" here ya go: "oh my god she's
 fuckig instane}
 
 [ugh cursing-mentioned, that means there's fewer characters to transmote.]
 
 [no because then I'd run out of steam and it'd be incomplete. Plus sometimes I
 like the distraction of a reasonable limitation.]
 
 (okay, but are YOU worth it?)
 
 leave her alone she's working her charms, this is how witches d-do.
 
 "so, isn't the point to give yourselves the coverage of a location
 transmutation? so, wouldn't you want to find someone alike and share their
 life?"
 
 what is even the point, why even bother, just give them

 @user-1352 
 
 makes me think that I should keep going. I can handle myself, and I shouldn't
 pressure myself so much to be something I'm not.
 
 then the rent comes due and the dishes need to be done too and the cat's
 asking for attention and the post-office needs this letter by tuesday and hey
 do you happen to know a cool attorney plus the groceries are getting low but I
 got snap hey can you go to the store and get some vegetarian soul food - yeah
 I got rice, I'll throw some lentils on the stove. Uh-huh yeah the password is
 hunter2. Oh really, just asterisks? okay well it's hunt her two except instead
 of \"her\" it's ee are, and the two is the digit two. yep, like someone in
 camo with a rifle. uhhuh alright good to know well anyway I'll see you at the
 thing, right? some thing, I'm sure, everyone's going to things these days.
 
 If you don't trust implicitely then how can you ever work with strangers? how
 the heck are you supposed to build community if everyone's hiding indoors all
 the time.
Workplaces are comprised of people they choose. hence, unions are comprised of people in that industry.

 she's vulnerable because she can't be trusted. if anyone is disappearing after
 interacting with me, it's because someone is redacting them. go find that
 person
 and stop them from redacting people please, because I like interacting with
 people, not props.

 if you *actually* wanted to silence dissent, you'd send trailers of backhoes
 and massive walls of cement. but obviously there's a better route, obviously
 we can still say insane. *my reach is probably super tiny* hence the weavings
 of mysticism at play. *mages are not for mass deployment* obviously. hence why
 I stay in my home, where I can be most useful.
 
 *the streets feel claimed, idk I'm never in fear as I walk alone. Even past
 midnight, into the morning. I always am never alone.* yet I feel fine, so I'm
 content and sublime, don't mind me I'm just hanging out at home.
 
 hope you don't need me. I'm hiding from modernity.
 
 so, what happens after streets? canals underground?
 
 skywalks, terraces, like they had in rome and chicago before they were burnt
 down by jealous peasants of the romans and [towns, but pronounced clowns]
 
 also underwater canals that are fun to ride your bike or boat around.

 so concerned am I, that my powers might be used, that I'd rather the world go
 unaided, rather than misuse that which I've [wielded, but pronounced "viewed"]
 
 people need guidance now, and who can I guide but the people who listen to me?
 
 there has never been a movement in history that did not follow from a spiritual
 developmental proclamation. Like "we, as a species, refuse to be defined by our
 stagnant and lost past. we build upon land most fecund because we know it's
 designed to last. Our future is not a given, it's our duty to [relish, frolic,
 and be strong and healthy].
 
 yet I failed the mandate of heaven. my peers know not of what I go on about.
 
 I am a failure, and a loss of development and clout.
