  • I’m sad that you were made to think this way. That you don’t consider yourself important enough to care about yourself. You never need to “look good for others”. Fuck that BS. I’m going to be 40 this year. These last few years I’ve been really experimenting with my looks. Never standing still, never stopping. You’re not a painting to be put in a frame and stand still. You’re a living, feeling being. Take care









  • Mostly banks, oil and war machinery.

    9/11 was a huge boost for the military suppliers, housing crisis got some financial institutions very rich for betting on the collapse. COVID mostly made medical suppliers rich, but also boosted weapons sales (more policing, border control…).

    Usually it’s pretty easy to see, you just have to look for the interests. Also you can look at the laws and decisions that get passed after these events. Something like a plane crash or titanic sinking is more difficult. But you can usually say that people got rich before that happened and that’s usually one of the reasons it’s happening in the first place.

    A fun and informative podcast for such information is “well there’s your problem” which talks about engineering disasters and the aftermath (it’s also very funny)
