#100k is not rich

[everpresentache]

people are refusing to accept that the goal post for rich has shifted dramatically bc that means it’s even more unimaginable for them to obtain and also they’re poor.

#100k is not rich #doctors and lawyers are not rich #i wouldn’t even say they’re middle class oop #the new middle class #meaning comfortable and can afford like luxuries and vacations #one million dollars #also u grew up super poor and i’m still poor and the reality is i’ll probably die poor #so don’t give me the bs about me whining that i feel poor and my parents make 100k #even though i think those ppl can whine bc 100k truly is nothing today #like what can h buy w that… be fr #it’s like everyone needs to band together and realize we are all poor but some of us are poorer but we shouldn’t be fighting about who gets #to say they’re poor and struggling #we need to be mad that we are never getting to where the billionaires are

last thing i’ll say; people aren’t owed free content but creatives aren’t owed financial compensation either

#i say all this as a cretive btw lets head that off #their bottom line was ‘we want more money to make bigger things and we cant afford to so we want more money in order to do them’ #and that is a valid desire #but you cant just expect everyone to go along with that just bc you want it #watcher got where they are due to a loyal viewer base #to reject money from corporations in favour of money from that viewer base? thats skeevy #to default to a complete and absolute paywall removing all your content then pretend that you weren't going to? thats skeevy #to make a countdown to an announcement then make the announcement a somber trip down memory lane #and an ‘if only we can make more stuff like this wink wink’? thats skeevy #and its skeevy bc theyre a company and no matter how personable they are companies are not your friend #are they the rich we should be eating? no #but when your ceo drives a tesla and eats expensive food that is written off as a buisness expense #AND you have a patreon that you dont capitalise on but still brings you on average 100k a month #you cant act like youre a hard done by creative #endevouring to make more elaborate creations is a good idea #monetisation is a good idea #absolute monetisation with no thought to an alternative isnt #name one indie artist that relies entirely on paid content ill wait #coming out of my cage and ive been doing just fine.txt #watcher #shane madej #ryan bergara #steven lim #hey there demons it’s me ya boy #ghost files

[heartru]

my least favourite thing from the watcher discourse has been people saying “WE never asked for higher quality” or “your most popular shows are where you just sit around and talk!!” - babes its likely not what THEY want to do for the rest of eternity lol. they’re allowed to want to grow as creatives and make things they are proud of?

#like i absolutely didn’t agree with their move to a paid model platform but this response isn’t the criticism u think it is #that and also the continious shit i saw about steven owning a tesla #like babes its HIS money? he’s allowed nice things and upgrades in his life lol? #AND the stuff about them making 100k from patreon with eat the rich comments #100k per month likely doesn’t cover all operating costs like you guys r thinking it does #they likely didn’t want to keep doing ad reads that interrupted their content structure and how they THEMSELVES percieved its value #as a former business major tho i def think even a little bit of market research could have stopped this lol #respectfully no one wants to pay for another thing #and the communication on it was unfortunately shit #but its not that big of a mistake that we tear em down like this #watcher #ryan bergara #shane madej #steven lim

In an interesting coincidence you first mentioned living in Florida the day it was revealed to me I may have to move their and now everytime you mention florida more news about this comes to light . Have you cursed me?

This is not the place for me to go into my insane ramblings but

I’m warning you.

If you can avoid it. Don’t. Don’t. Do it.

Don’t curse yourself.

If at all possible. Don’t. The state is actively running itself into the ground.

#I understand things are sometimes out of your control #but if you aren’t making 100k+ or already rich #you will suffer. immensely. #a shitty bug infested musty ass one bedroom apartment is 2k to rent #the wages here are in the dirt #the traffic. the drivers. #THE WEATHER.. #I can only speak for central and south fl #north fl is the south.. idk what goes on up there. #the more north you go the more south it gets #also if you are anything but mega straight or cis HOLY SHIT. DONT DO IT. #like it’s actually dangerous. #don’t. #ask me how I know.. ha. hahaha. get me outta here. #non voice post #ask #asks

A little something I made for the Crime Boss AU I’m considering writing. With cocky son of the crime boss Steve, low level money runner Eddie, pickpocket and Steve’s bestie Robin, and rival crime families daughter Nancy.

#steddie #steddie fic #eddie and steve #steve x eddie #stranger things #god I want to write it so bad #it would be the third crime boss fic I’ve written #but I already know it would be 100k #can I commit to that? #just imagine rich boy Steve loving all the little street rats #can you see the vision? #ronance #robin buckley #robin x nancy #nancy wheeler

i think they should just give every single person a one time payment of 100.000 $ (or rather the local adjusted equivalent) and see where it goes. they say that will just lead to inflation but i know that economics are a scam so i feel like we should just try it

#i feel like… for rich people it wont make a difference #middle class will probably pay off their credit put some money aside go on a really expensive vacation #and all the exploitative industries would crumble because the exploited lower class #would not be set for life with 100k and still had to work but now they have more negotiating power regarding working conditions and salary #and a lot of money would go back to the economy anyways and they could invest in making better working conditions #which they have to if they want to keep employees who are now able to pay off debt and take time off #mine

[irawhiti]

do you guys fucking hear yourselves i'm just wondering. like be fucking for real here. everyone who says that millionaires aren't rich or some other shit because of inflation and prices going up owes every homeless person who has to read this shit $3000. guess what, things are just as expensive for the filthy poors WITHOUT a million dollars, too! usually a hell of a lot more expensive in the long run, actually! the cost of living getting more expensive affects EVERYONE. a flat $1000 is almost nothing to a millionaire while being a fucking life changer for many people living in poverty! come on now.

#i am so tired of seeing this shit. i can't believe i have to say a person with millions of dollars is not fucking poor. #'ohhh millionaires aren't rich they're your allies in the same boat! it's BILLIONAIRES you should care about' #'the middle class doesn't exist anymore and people making hundreds of thousands a year are lower class now' #it all just translates to fucking Well poor people should shut up and stop complaining about people having more money! we're ALL suffering! #yeah! and the people who sleep on the streets are suffering more than the people who make 100k a year! hello! #none of this is even getting into the amount of money and power that money holds in the third world and how that's by design #bc i'm not qualified to speak on that. but you have to be a level of ignorant i cannot comprehend to believe this and i see it so often

Hello!

I'm desperately searching for a fic in which George is a factory worker who came to America in search of a fortune but is now very disillusioned and Dream is a rich heir born into wealth. The background of the fic is that the factory workers in the city are coming together in protest of the factory owners' harsh treatments and Dream and others (i think Wilbur was a leader) were helping them, and Badboyhalo was an antagonist. I can't remember the name but I think there was a 'land'/'lands' in it? It was such a great fic with beautiful, vivid descriptions of the time... I need it like i need to breathe air and drink water to live on :')

Any help would be appreciated, even knowing the name will heal my heart a little:')

Thank you and i hope you have a good day/night!

Going to markets these days is so depressing, like when I was a kid they were so vibrant and busy and had all these unique stalls and now it's just like cheap shit people have bought fron aliexpress but sell for stupid prices and the few slightly more decent stalls are all run by yuppies who /think/ they're hippies who get shit made in Bali and then sell it for absorbitant prices

Fuck off

#like lady youre not a hippie youre a rich bitch who doesnt vacinate her children has a beach front property and drives a 100k land rover #youre worse than a regular rich bitch bc at least they never would have gone to a market bc theyd think its povo #hate this shit

[wutheringheightsfilm]

i dont think i agree with calling surgeons (and other people who have salaries in the hundreds of thousands a year) "working class" is ... quite right ...

#vero.txt #t #you guys can call them middle class if you want but in all honesty they are rich . it doesnt matter if they only make money from labor #instead of by virtue of just owning something. theyre still rich #and i also really hate the kind of posts that encourage poor people to be nice to those unfortunate makers of 100k+ salarymen #like 'be nice to them because theyre not as rich as jeff bezos!' no. #they dont treat me or those who are poorer than me like human beings. they are not in solidarity with me

Another reason richjake works in canon is that Rich and Jeremy’s goals ‘synced up’ (or something like that, I don’t remember the exact wording in the show) which means part of Rich’s goals, whether he’s actually into Jake or not, is to break Christine and Jake up. So let me paint you a picture: they’re all on a group outing—that meaning our main cast excluding Michael—at, just for example, the roller skating rink. And of course Jake is treating Christine wonderfully (or at least, as wonderfully as he knows how) and Jeremy, who’s supposed to be giving attention to Brooke, can’t take his eyes off them. he’s jealous as heck. So in swoops Rich, who suddenly forgets how to skate and is in desperate need of Jake’s assistance.

“Jake, shit, help me—“ and he grabs onto Jake’s bicep. Immediately Jake forgets about Christine completely, too entertained by Rich fumbling around like a baby deer on his skates. Jake’s good at everything, so he skates backward and holds both Rich’s hands (and ignored the weird feeling that gives him), dragging him along the rink and laughing at everything he says. He needs me more, is the dumb excuse he thinks of, Christine can skate just fine on her own. But the second Jake isn’t looking, Jeremy is skating over, gracefully taking Christine’s hand and leading her to the snack bar. Rich sends him a wink and a thumbs up and, weirdly enough, the next time they go skating (after the squip), he can skate just fine on his own

#also they go to the beach and rich needs help carrying snacks #then he needs help guarding his snacks from the sea gulls #then he needs help finding new swim trunks #while christine builds a sand castle w jeremy #richjake #jake dillinger #rich goranski #id read an entire fic just of rich crashing jake and christine’s dates #literally like 100k words of just that #they don’t even need to get together in the end #jeremy heere #christine canigula #stage dorks #i actually ship them so hard #they are so fucking CUTE #bmc #be more chill

Not me thinking of a post-reveal Lena who’s hurt and angry and that makes her magic manifest itself and it leads to her crossing paths with Johanna Constantine.

#seriously considering writing it #but I should maybe finish rich girl before committing to another 100k fic idea #supercorp

1 20 and 40 for the ask meme!

1. Compliment your writing!

Bestie. Darling. Dear. Who is doing it like you in terms of Number Go Up and also the conciseness of everything you do. Please stop worrying that your fics aren't long enough when you're shotgunning seven of them on Ao3. I prommy they're as complete as they need to be.

20. What was the last thing you researched for a story?

Iirc I had to go fact-check myself for my Cecelia Burnham fic for Podcast Girl's Week 2024. I think I was looking up the room key number and name of the hotel, specifically.

40. Pick one of your fics and share a quote to go with it (not a quote from the fic, but an outside quote that fits)

La Diablerie Coterie gets two you you can understand The Vibes.

-"The Hollow Men" by T.S. Elliot.

-"A Smaller God" by Darling Violetta

#i really struggle with thinking i've Done Enough when i see other people putting out 20-100k novels of rich quality #but i also work really well with smaller more concise works. #that said i should go update LDC bc she's living in my head rent-free since we have judy blashy on the chessboard rn #if you need me i'll be wrapping up noreen fic and then going ham on vampires
