  • My ball was blue. It’s one of those dog toy soft bouncy ones. Table is rectangular, wood, with a light colored stain that’s well polished. A man casually slaps the ball and I hear the sound that type of ball makes as it bounces without much force. It bounced once off the table, then off the wall onto the floor where it did the dribble bounce off the tile in the kitchen until coming to rest on the carpet in the living room. None of what I see is related to my house.

    If I really wanted to, I can vanish into this world I’ve built for the ball. I can get lost, staring out a window or something while not actually seeing anything because I’m in my head. I have hyperphantasia. It’s seen more often than aphantasia, but it’s not exactly common. It’s very useful for creative endeavors, but has a lot of pitfalls; usually involving spacing out at inopportune times.



















  • You’ll tell yourself that because you want to be like that, so you strive for it. You need to believe you’ll escape your essential humanity. You can’t. You won’t. Rich people are entirely the same exact creature we are. Cannot purchase your way out of that. Call history fairy tails all you want, but you won’t convince me, I’ve been on both sides of the coin. I know from first hand experience how utterly basic and human rich people are.

    They are not unique or special in any way. They are just people. They have more nice stuff and they have power, but they are still just the same species of clever ape we all are. If they all died, they would just be replaced. We replace billionaires all the time. We treat the money as more important than any meat behind it anyway.
