hollow knight au where the dreamers survive but they just hang around and tell weird stories to an increasingly confused lemm like that one tumblr post about unhelpful vampires with bad memory

Lemm: So you’re saying it didn’t always rain in the city?
Lurien: Yes, it was actually an recent development - at least it was in my time. The water level rose so high the waterways flooded. We managed to drain the pipes eventually but then the flukes came up from the lower levels and that was a whole new mess. So we closed off the waterways to everyone except the guards and the maintenance staff. Quite a shame really. It was a lovely way to get to the other side of the city without meeting anyone.
Lemm: What?
Lurien: What.

Lemm: Have any of you actually met the King? I have studied several King’s Idols but that is all I have on what he looks like.
Monomon: He was actually shorter than Lurien. Can you believe it?
Lurien: I am above average height thank you very much.

Lemm: What about the Palace? I’ve been to the site but it seems to have vanished. No sign of conflict either. Very strange.
Lurien: You are better off not knowing what was in that palace.
Monomon: *hums in agreement*
Lemm: Why? What was in there?
Monomon: Tell me scholar, do you know about buzzsaws?
Lemm: …No? I’ve never heard of them.
Monomon: Pray you never do.

me being raised on 90s internet rules where telling someone online your favorite color was giving out too much personal information watching gen z youtubers give out their real first and last names and telling everyone the exact city and apartment complex where they live

image

Please stop making caards listing out all your mental illnesses, race, age, gender, sexuality, full name, location, school, job history, specific special interests and hyperfixations to the point where someone can easily stalk you through the information you are posting. No one is entitled to know any of this for any reason. You don’t need to prove anything to anyone.

Additionally:

I see these things being listed usually as interaction criteria. As in “I can say this because I have x experience which is listed in my bio/carrd”

Stop that. People lie on the internet All The Time (especially predators). You listing True Facts in your bio that someone could use to Actually stalk you is not and should not be the price you pay for arguing online. Nobody knows who’s lying or not anyway, and the only people who would care enough to find out are creeps.

You don’t need criteria like that to exist online nor should you have to.

Quit broadcasting your Actual private and personal information for every single creep on your radar.

THE LOSTBELTS SO FAR:

  1. local married grump recruits the users of furaffinity.ru into a darwinist frozen hellscape one step removed from the logical conclusion of an a/b/o prompt for his beloved wife the princess of russia, keeping The Biggest Furry asleep with mozart’s ex to rule over the land. a giant robot fight ensues.
  2. lonely spinster in an attempt to ignore the rapidly dwindling ethics of her well intentioned survival gambit projects her Lonely Singles In Her Area aura onto her adopted daughter figure. after various bouts of heterosexuality ensue, Not Satan shows up, and we humiliate him. no giant robot fight ensues.
  3. The Emperor’s New Hivemind, understanding that the act of thinking may be a mistake, creates the most boring society imaginable. his keeper, interested only in getting her husband back, succeeds in doing so by losing really hard. the hivemind is laid low by a cellphone. no giant robot fight ensues.
  4. local demigod gets a hunger pang and takes a midnight snack into deity based cannibalism, and then decides the cycle of samsara is actually pretty neat. his bro snaps him out of it as our gay uncle betrays us, but we’re cool with it because we love him. there are no giant robots.
  5. local twink and mastermind becomes homies with the leader of the machine gods for his own ends to create the potential of luxury automated space communism, except everyone’s a dick about it. multiple giant robot fights ensue, and twink mastermind loses because he forgot what happens in saint seiya at the end.
  6. locally cancelled wiccan and bad decision master decides to make “the UK but Good” without realizing this as an oxymoron. everyone’s secretly a monster and our shady uncle who we grow to love goes the way of old yeller. lots of crying involved. no giant robots.
  7. cryptid humanoid wanted by The Magic CIA re-enacts his Land Before Time fanfiction in south america to ride the World’s Strongest Alien like a horsey to the south pole, killing everything and everyone ever. the non-elected alien president of earth, who is also our ex boss, and her entourage of fucked up worsties, only aids us out of her own amnesia because she hit her head to hard. many fun soccer matches are had. no robot fights to be seen yet.

hi im triple AAA game studio. Welcome to our game gunshitters 7. this is a 70$ USD game that is not finished but you can buy the DLC at launch for 50$USD. also theres a seprate in game currency where you can spend 200$USD to get diamonds to buy cosmetics. look at our roadmap. dont you want to pay 30$ for our first season pass? you will unlock special epic gear that will never ever come back so you can get a nice healthy dose of FOMO. the next season pass is next month and is also 30$. also we are locking 40% of the entire game behind our fun new feature ‘present mechanics’ so you can gift the rest of the game to yourself for the low low price of 40$ and you also get an epic gun skin if you pay for the GOLD season pass for 60$. also you know how the game was unfinished at launch? oh haha were sorry about that. were releasing it now but you need to pay 20$ for it. fuck you. fuck you. fuck you.

guy in a duplex living off of nothing but bread with a computer from 2009: hi everyone im so sorry im late to announce this but my game honeydew mayhem where you can conquer the universe as a bee is gonna release a month late because i still need time to work on making sure that everything works properly and i also need to make sure that the free content updates i will release over time for the next 10 years will be on their way. i need to make sure that you can do absolutely everything you can think of in this game and i still need to polish 20 boss fights and finalize 40 more in-game areas to explore. im sorry you guys will have to wait a bit longer. also my game will be 25$ i hope that isnt too much to ask. if it is i promise it will go on sale soon for 9$. i love all of you and hope you are having a good day

I think about this a lot.

requested by anonymous:

RATING: RELIABLE

Source: ‘The math checks out. In 2019, the median annual earning for women was $47,299. For men, it was $57,546. Averaged together, that’s about $52,423.The cost of the average home in the same time was $377,700. That is about 14 percent of the median salary.’

As of Oct 2022, the median annual earnings for women in the United States was $50,492 (extrapolated by multiplying weekly earnings by 52 weeks). For men, it was $60,528. Average together, that’s about $55.640. The average purchase price of a home in the United States during Q3 of 2022 was $542,900.

The average salary in the US is now about 10.2% of the cost of a home.

But that’s not even the whole story, because “income earned” means pre-tax income, and mortgage payments are not tax deductible unless you itemize (which people w/ average salaries do not do bc it’s usually less than the standard deduction).

In 1936, following FDR’s income tax hikes, the median annual salary for a single person was $830, taxed at 4% Income + 1% Social Security. The take-home median pay was therefore ~$790. The average home value was $4,766. So take-home pay was about 16.5% of home cost in 1936.

In Oct 2022, taxes are a bit more complicated. Assuming you take the standard deduction, file single, and only pay federal income tax, the take-home pay from a salary of $55,640 is about $51,584.

chart showing Taxable Income is $36,249, Adjusted Gross Income is $55,640, Standard Deduction is $19,400, Business Income Deduction is $0, and Taxes owed is $4,056

(Using H&R Block’s 2022 tax estimator)

So really, the average take-home pay is now 9.5% of the average home price.

Meanwhile, the person earning $2M/yr in 2022 would end up taking home at least $1,289,600. He is taxed at 35.3% of his earnings. The person earning the inflation-adjusted equivalent of in 1936 (~$95,000) would be taxed at 60% of his earnings.

Tl;dr: It’s an even more dire situation than that tweet suggests. Taxes on the middle class have skyrocketed, taxes on the ultra-rich have been slashed in half, and housing is nearly twice the ratio to income earned that it was in the middle of the Great Depression.
