Squizzle posted:also ubi supports the arts in ways that a job guarantee doesnt i have a lot of thoughts about arts, arts funding, etc, but not for right now. the brits gave theatres a fuckload of money: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/07/theater/theater-bailout-britain.html which is good. obviously theatre is pretty hosed up, which leads to poo poo like this: https://www.weseeyouwat.com/ which i have my own thoughts about, mostly revolving around class and the few viable pipelines to become a boss at an arts org (be rich, poor ppl cant afford to work in arts -> hello) Smythe fucked around with this message at 22:43 on Jul 8, 2020 |

Squizzle posted:that honestly shouldnt matter insofar as a good system would be structured to care for everyone and not wonder if they can. some people cant, some people cant do any work they would find satisfying, some people just wanna sit at home all day and read reviews of other peoples fan-fiction. all of those people deserve decent lives and the essentials of dignity. even the fan-fiction review reader is gaining some sorta fourth-derivative understanding of something about humanity, and that has value in the world i agree and think ud have to be a fkin monster to disagree.

Complications posted:Our conception of kings is largely shaped by the end stage of them, the absolute monarchies pioneered by the likes of Louis XIV who finally consolidated power as a recognizably modern authoritarian. Medieval monarchs were basically first-among-equals more or less, and getting anything done required the consent and aid of their vassals. CK2 does better than all other games in capturing this, but you still have effectively late-stage king level power and influence at all times. This isn't counting the influence of the church, nor of the nominally non-noble merchant guilds that sprang up. ah, reminds me of my time at the helm of this web site...........

Epic High Five posted:man that does suck, esp since it means there's a chance Musk read those books. I'd be interested to see what his takeaways were and how wildly off the mark they are despite how overt it all is i like to believe some engineer or something chose those names as placeholders early on and they stuck kuz the books own
