why are you always on the top of my feed. like 1m. 😂

I'm in the same boat🫂. The past two months, in particular, have cost me more than a few pretty pennies👀. And that's only one concern. Don't let it get you down, though.

My life is like an avalanche, lately.

Tried cyberpunk but couldnt get into it. some fallout as well. The last few years Ive been really spending my game time on logistics games like factorio or dyson sphere or survival games like valheim.

Somehow tie innovation - rate of upgrades, I guess - to property, and make the degree of property rights variable via policies.

Actually, this might work.

Idea for a game: Communists vs Capitalist. Two players. You can either pick the side of the central planner, or the free market. The capital are a limited set of resources set in a limited resource environment to make the math easier. Think energy, consumables, capital assets each with perhaps one subset tier of item, e.g., expensive scarces fuel and cheap abundant fuel; cheap low utility consummables and expensive high utility fuels, all with various weights, etc. Both sides can control certain different policy settings, e.g., focus on population growth and comption, or focus on defense against external threats like war or disease, etc. These policy weights incentivize the allocation of capital and consumption perhaps controlled by taxes and/or other incentivizations. Each side gets the same set of npcs, each with various incentive profiles, risk takers and risk adverse, prestige v. anonymity, etc. The goal of the game is to, at the end of a set time limit, have the most stable population to net asset ratio, i.e., if the trend lines were drawn to infinity population vs resources and assets would not directionally be trending to zero.

As the central planner you have complete control over the allocation of capital by the agents (npcs in the game). In otherwords you can directly override their default incentives by dictatorial decree and therefore impose your will on how resources are allocated to different tasks. However, the game can't be paused and operates like an active simulation in real time and so you have to constantly watch the societies resources and modify the allocation of resources to account for issues in real time.

As the free market sovereign you cannot direct the actions of agents other than by modfying the policies that impinge on agents incentives.

Thoughts? #gamestr #asknostr #gfy

No way. 😂

In a completely unrelated matter, do you enjoy ski jumping ?

And I was using a ladder and standing on the countertops and nearly fell off and they were like, umm, Stand aside, and then finished the rest, just by reaching up and it's like, I nearly killed myself trying to do that. 😭

OMG that was so fucking scary.

Construction. House renovation.

Not because I'm incompetent, but because I can't keep up with the guys.

I don't know how they work so fast. I'm in awe.

It looks so effortless, when they do it. How is that a thing?

I tried to keep up, but just ended up lying on the floor, despondent, and they sent me home.

Can't even raise my arms, anymore.

You can always tell, when a situation becomes chaotic and upsetting, and they become _calmer_.

Yeah, like a mountain.

Or, no... too passive.

Rather, like a dormant volcano.

Restrained aggression. Emotional and sexual continence. Quiet, contemplative control.

Thoughts while watching my husband paint the ceiling.

I once heard it described as: men must strive to be like a mountain, standing firm and calm amidst the chaotic crashes of the ocean waves.

omg it's soooo good

extremely validating in a way

definitely check it out

This is just complete random garbage from my brain.

I didn't really understand why I have a higher opinion of men, in general, than most women, until I realized that I just have unusually good taste, so I tend to end up interacting with the best men.

Like, I can tell the difference between "acts masculine" or "appears masculine" and "is masculine".

off the top of my head:

1. Uniquely Rika

2. How to Talk So Kids Will Listen

3. Eyes of God (Bronze Knight series)

4. Heart of Darkness

5. Diary of a Psychosis

When you see all the cool, impressive things people did in the bear market and how they all got rich, fit, and hot, and learnt important life lessons, and went on exciting dates, and became a philosopher and trained for Iron Man, and you spent the bear market unemployed, broke, and glued to your laptop.

I guess that means I failed the marshmallow test.

They're nuts. 30 was old.
