New experiments popped in rendomly.
Atomised. Watching another world of lives being lived at the same moments. Suns rising and falling out of sync with mine. People at heightened stakes, stuck in survival mode, fallen through the cracks, no safety nets catching them on the way down. Wealthiest of nations, poorest of people. Plundering, extraction. Capital bloats. Everything consumable, everything capital. Self blame, weak will, poor character. Disposed of. Thrown to pharmaceutical wolves, picking at bones. Mad. Mad. Mad world.

Buy a Hand Painted Shoe · Painted by Mrs Luva-Luva (me) · one of a kind · ships worldwide
I'm selling individual hand painted shoes. As a child I would often lose one or sometimes both shoes, as well as many other things.

They will ward off losing things by mistake.
Guy Standing defined the precariat as a new social class. People living without security, cycling through precarious work. While the tech elite accumulate processing power, and just power, the rest of us are told to retrain, upskill, pivot, in order to prevent economic displacement, as we’re pushed further into climate crisis. Let them eat RAM.
