#they are in massive debt

[misted-buttercup-enjoyer]

"I'm just coming back for fun. Because it's great being alive with you."

"Hehehe...Good reason."

Just finished "Together Again." Don't talk to me.

#i cried and cried and cried #finn and jake #jake the dog #finn the human #adventure time distant lands #together again #adventure time #finn mertens #finn adventure time #jake adventure time #i owe a massive debt to EVERYONE who worked on this show #you made my childhood #thank you!!!!!!!!!!!! #i'm 3 years late to the distant lands party but i'm gonna PARTY

All debate about that reveal aside, can we talk about the fact that as far as I know all the Americans just nodded and went “yeah, fake marriage for health insurance, makes sense.” That was truly the least surprising thing about this episode. Non-Americans, how batshit does that sound to you? Please tell me.

#I’m not kidding when I say I have had that conversation with friends before #because I have excellent health insurance through my job #and I’m not planning on getting married anyways so why not fake marry someone so they don’t go into massive amounts of medical debt? #this is truly what living in America is like 🫡 #911 lone star #911ls spoilers

I'm just kvetching here on my personal blog! I'm allowed to fatalistic! I don't have to be positive and optimistic all the time! Sometimes things suck!

#The economy is in shambles! I'm allowed to be mad at being broke and not finding a good job despite having studied for 5 years #And being in massive debt about it

rereading order of the stick (again), and greyiew is only in a few comics so far but man do i love this nihilistic wolf

#order of the stick #yes i know it hasn't been terribly long since i last reread it but #i've been desperately trying to get my dnd group to read it and i just had to go back and go through it again #and again. the first 250 strips or so are pretty cringey and there's aspects even later that make me wince #but fuck once you get to the soul splice arc you've read the last bad oots comic #''utterly dwarfed'' is fucking *incredible* #i am both incredibly ready and incredibly not ready for the climax #i bet durkon will live and i'm sure haley elan and roy will #o-chul i'm leaning ''survives'' and lien i think will make it #minrah will probably make it. i bet serini is doomed. #belkar is obviously doomed #i'm 100% on the fence about v #like straight-up 50/50 both ''live'' and ''die'' serve strong narrative purposes #but as to how it all plays out? #v still owes the fiends 23 minutes meaning the order can't rely on them to back them up in the clutch #so on the one hand it would make the most sense for them to hit as hard and fast as possible #but on the other - if the fiends *don't* call in the debt for their own purposes #they will have burned out their most powerful member too soon #burlew is too clever and too good a writer for a traditional battle scene as the climax #more is going to happen. *something* massive is going to shift #serini turns? redcloak turns on xykon and gets eaten by the mitd? #i can't tell! i'm going to flip tf out whenever it does happen though #hnggh this has been 20 years in the making and the climaxes have not failed a single note yet #burlew is goddamned *good* at rising action and nailing the climax of a story arc #it's gonna be fucking incredible ugh

so…somehow topaz is not only managing to embody “rampant capitalist” but also “insidious colonizer”???

like babe maybe try not launching an armed alien invasion of their home threatening to extract every single resource of potential value. or like. dumping a 700yr old debt on a planet that has been entirely isolated for most of that.

hey speaking of how it’s been 700 years since this supposed loan was made—why are you sweeping in to demand hundreds of years of interest on a loan you didn’t care enough to collect more than 400 years ago…conveniently AFTER you decided that maybe there was something to exploit here after all?

like goddamn when they announced “topaz and numby” i thought the pig was supposed to be NUMBY and yet Here We Are

#moi #hsr #honkai star rail #hsr topaz #topaz & numby #capitalism is capitalism i guess #the worst part is i can’t even tell if they meant for her to come off like such a straight up cunt? #like it feels like they’re trying to spin it like ‘oh well she’s just doing her job and trying to help—‘ uhh no #one does not waltz in after not lifting a finger to help just to extract what little wealth this planet has #‘the IPC may seem heartless and cruel’ YEAH BECAUSE IT IS. ITS LITERALLY A HEARTLESS CORPORATION #THAT HAS CANONICALLY ENGAGED IN UNETHICAL BUSINESS PRACTICES #‘oh well oh my home planet outside corporations fucked up the environment massively and people were suffering— #BUT THEN THE IPC SAVED THE DAY! and all it cost was signing your life over to a faceless corporation that doesn’t give a shit about you :)’ #WHO DO YOU THINK FUCKED UP THE ENVIRONMENT TO BEGIN WITH????? #‘so i’ve decided to be gracious and kind and FORGIVE your planets (cough supposed) debts… #…​provided you sign your entire planet’s population to my glorious corporation.’ #‘(and if you don’t agree to these terms then we will take your planet by force and extract every ounce of wealth)’ #like HELLO??????? #this whole situation is manipulative as hell

hank pym hates sentinels, both morally but also because he can't figure out where people keep getting the money to make them because he made one robot and not only did it try to kill everything it also put him in debt.

#brieuc.txt #hank pym #okay canonically it didnt as far as we know #BUT i think a man like hank would try again out of need to prove himself or whatever #but he hasnt. leaving me to believe ultron was a massive financial undertaking and he doesnt want to be in debt over a murderbot again

Also I think because LXC can't actually fix JGY's situation, people don't always realize how often he does help JGY? But we do actually see it a lot! Even aside from repeatedly saving his life from NMJ trying to kill him on the spot, there's:

- the teacups scene

- bringing news of the possibilities at Langya (and offering to talk to NMJ if needed)

- intervening politely when Jin Zixun is yelling abuse at him at the Phone is Mountain Hunt

- helping expand the grounds at the Phoenix Mountain Hunt, and even recruiting LWJ to help them out

- giving him the cloth after Zixun throws wine at him

- even teaching him the Song of Clarity!

And honestly I'm probably forgetting some other things too. And like—again setting aside the defending his life from NMJ part, most of these are fairly subtle or small? But that's just the kind of help LXC can give! He can't fix JGY's situation; it's just not in his power. But that doesn't mean there's never any help he can give. And I think it's worth noting that the help is graciously given and graciously accepted; even when LXC urges him to go change his clothes after Zixun throws wine on him, and JGY has to point out that he can't, he's not offended or reactive or anything of the sort; he simply says that he can't leave, even as he accepts the handkerchief without any problems and uses it to clean his robes.

#jin guangyao #lan xichen #xiyao #and I mean don't get me wrong obviously the debt is massively in JGY's favour! #he's helped LXC more than LXC has helped him by a very significant amount #(and I'm still never over the way we ONLY LEARN THIS AFTER HE'S BEEN STABBED IN THE NOVEL) #but that doesn't mean that LXC never helps JGY! #he absolutely does #it's just often not very splashy and it doesn't magically fix everything #so I think it's often undernoticed

The day people stop mischaracterizing Kaveh and Alhaitham is the day I will finally be happy

#alhaitham isn’t mean he’s just very blunt #kaveh isn’t a helpless damsel in distress #i mean #he IS in distress #just not in the way you think #people dumb-down kaveh so much it’s so annoying #he graduated with honors!!! yeah he’s a little gullible but he’s not fucking stupid #also this whole ‘kaveh wouldn’t know how to function without alhaitham’ bullshit #besties he was practically taking care of himself after his dad died because his mother fell into a very deep depression #and THEN she moved to fontaine and he was living alone #he went to school and GRADUATED TOP OF HIS DARSHAN #everyone wanted him to work for them after he graduated #he built a palace and YEAH now he’s in massive debt #but like?????? #he landed himself in that position and he’s TRYING to get back on his feet #i’d say he’s pretty independent idk #yeah yeah alhaitham pays for all his drinks most of the time #and he helps kaveh out a lot in other ways as well #but the point of their dynamic is that they’re mirrors to each other #you can’t really have one without the other because their stories are so intertwined and they help each other grow #they keep each other in check #luna talks #anyway #i’m very upset :)

anyways speaking of English words the more u read into how British rule straight up irreversibly reshaped the subcontinent's political and social structures for the worst .. the more horrified u get and the more u understand that sometimes white people are just evil

#brilliant in terms of result but like. comically evil #yeah yeah racialised slavery is modern but like. its still white people #and i do genuinely feel that like. there is a massive debt there that does need to be repaid by being extremely mindful of status privilege #and its also why every time i see some white person haggle for 200 rupees i get SO SO SO violent #the LEAST you can do bro #salt for ts

[lostlovepunk]

i just remembered the usa concept of student loans and time and time again it seems more cruel to me

like. i am a bit of a screw up academics-wise. i dropped out of three different unus after two semesters at most and i also worked a job that didn't need much of an education for six months in between. and i was able to do that bc i pay like 300 euros to my unis per semester, and like half of that goes into a public transport ticket. if i had to get along in y'all's system i would have drowned in debt by now. or taken much more drastic measures to keep myself going where i thought i wanted to go when i was 17. it seems to me like they really don't leave you much of a choice, in any direction. wherever you think you might want to go after highschool, you're kind of doomed to keep walking in that direction if you aren't filthy rich. so many people are probably grieving a future that was unattainable to them in some way or another, because they chose to do something at first and then couldn't afford to change paths, because of a disability that made your whole schooling system impossible to bear, or a thousand of other reasons.

and this might just be ramblings, and it's just a perspective of someone who never had to experience said system. but i think y'all should start to burn shit to the ground

#spike spoke #politics #and suicidality tw for the tags to follow: #i think if i had had debt on top of just feeling like a massive screw up bc i couldn't deal with my shit at 18 #a year after moving out from my parents #i mightve actually killed myself #like that's such a massive pressure and for what #people here can go 40 semesters of studying and people look at them kinda funny #but they have some kind of job next to it and it fucking works #if everything had gone like i hoped it would when i was 17 and fresh out of highschool i would be writing my bachelor's thesis rn #and i am so fucking thankful that being a screw up is possible here #it's not fun or sustainable #but it's a possibility without being entirely ruined

burnout is supposed to end at some point, I have read this. However, how do you know when it has ended and you should gradually force yourself through more activities to get used to living a life again, and when doing that will send you Directly back to an even worse ring of hell. Is there like a guidebook or

#in some ways it sucks i've never had one massive breakdown just like small ones that didn't really justify lying in bed for a month #like when i say i'm doing that i'm also usually doing bare minimum reading eating exercise #in addition to lying in bed and scrolling for 5 billion hours #i'm still making plans and attempting to get better it's just at a glacial pace #it's not working i'm not feeling better i still feel like if i find a job or try to make a decision i'll probably break in a million pieces #then any time i try to work harder the rebound of that hits me even worse #every job i feel like i can deal with less and less masking. until one day i just won't be able to hold down one for more than 2 months #i kept trying every strategy i knew and it just wouldn't keep me from having to go to my car and scream sometimes #feels like walking over coals trying to apply for internships rn but schoolwork is the only task i like some of the time #need the internship to graduate if i don't graduate i'll just be stuck doing things i hate even more #ik you shouldn't apply to grad school just to go but if i can put off dealing with living a life outside of academia for even 1 year longer #worth the mountains of debt #like even if i drop out and everything goes horribly that's a year i didn't spend saying thank you have a nice day #god. i'm going back to thinking abt lesbian necromancers now. wow that brief look into my mental state sucked
