Ok, so when I look at spells, people use like 20 different herbs which would take me eternity to find, some dont even grow in my country.


But I realized, I got it backwards.


I was searching for spells using herbs in general.


What I was supposed to be searching is specifically herbs in my area, and their magical properties.


"Magical uses of stinging nettle"


Stinging nettle I can find easily anywhere, dandelion root too. Hazel as well. And these have some magical effects of protection which can be used in personal spells.


Hazel stick has protective properties, and hazel is a tree of wisdom. This is why I really hated when my parents accidentally broke one of small hazel trees growing on land. They are idiots who always had bad luck in life, and I hope they dont send more bad luck my way with their dumb actions.

I didnt know you were super rich. I hate poor people, but rich people I can respect because they are smart and capable.

I think I'm going to date a younger chick


Date asian girl. Those often look young even when 30. Plus, Japanese women have high skills with make up which makes them look cute. But dont date white women. Most of them put no effort in their looks, and by age 40 most are too ugly.

At least you have a farm to survive


Anyone who has some savings in any form can survive crisis easily, if any even happens. Thats what savings are for, when income slows down, they fill the gap. But those without savings better start making some savings and food supplies. Or at least some investments in safe options like gold or desirable land. Not that I think any real crisis is coming in USA. In my country, maybe. In USA? Doubt it.

Did you know that we pay $19.41 billion per month on interest for the National Debt?


So less than 0.1% of budget, and most debt is to itself?


I am sure many among you are having wet dreams about crisis and cant wait for it to happen, but the only crisis which ever happened was under Obama and Biden.


Let me know in september where this crisis is.

SatanLucy
If that ever happens


It wont happen. "Experts" predict crisis all the time. With inflation at lowest since forever, the only big crisis which might happen would be in form of difficult decision about if average american will spend extra money on iphone or pixel. My bet is iphone.

SatanLucy
China’s economy will outperform America sooner than predicted


No, China's economy is barely half of US economy. And with birth rates among lowest in the world, China wont be outperforming anything. Tho I do appreciate my new cheap phone from China, because I cant afford iphone.

And my prediction will be right for another 1000 years most likely. If I made this prediction 2000 years ago, I would be right for 2000 years. But its one of those predictions where opposite is so unlikely that its a safe prediction which puts me on level of prophets.

"Prediction is very difficult, especially about the future" -- Niels Bohr


Its not difficult when you realize there are only two options. Either people will become smart enough or they wont. My bet is they wont, and I was right for past 15 years in a row.

You make no mention of private party investment in ourselves


Sure I do, indirectly. Education is supposed to cover that, even tho it doesnt currently. I have invested in many things, gold, land, buisness, saving account...ect. without any government help, some would even say government harmed me much more than it helped regarding my investments.

SatanLucy
I started buying gold when it was $400 per ounce. It's now over $3,400 per ounce. I expect it to rise higher over the long haul


I approve of government buying gold from other countries and putting it in local economy, and mining gold and putting it in local economy, but governments usually do something stupid like buy gold and just store it forever.

Tax cuts dont do anything much if you dont reduce expenses and invest in means of production in economy.


There is truly 0% of understanding of economy everywhere, but its simple.


1. Means of production are used to produce stuff.

2. So more means of production equals more stuff.


A government which imports cows will have more milk.


But people dont understand the basics in economy, which is why most economies in the world are shit.


There are only 4 basis of economy:

1. Production power

2. Technology

3. Investments

4. Cost to effect economy


The government should reasonably cover all 4.


Production power is increased by increasing means of production which produce useful things, example milk.


Technology is developed by education, research...ect.


Government can encourage investments by giving loans which are of low interest, and by printing money which causes increase in amount of money in economy.


Cost to effect economy requires a smart government.


Money printing plus low taxes plus medium to low government expenses are ideal way.

Do you love your gods, then? Or is it just transactional?


I believe that love is conditional. In the same way you wouldnt love someone who just abuses you and hurts you, I wouldnt love a God who just abuses and hurts me. In this sense, love is a trade. Not trade in a sense of "I give you this if you give me that". But in this sense: I will respect you and help you and do as you want, and then if you just hurt me, then there is no more respecting or helping from my side. I think this is what love is in a simple way. You offer first, but withdraw if person is pure evil. Same with Gods. I offered a lot to Gods before asking anything from them. It worked for me a lot, and because of this I think Gods exist and they can be pleased and they do return favors as well.

I bought it last year and went Ventrue because I liked the mind control powers


Mind control powers are great against weaker enemies, makes some levels super easy. Tho only some powers are useful against stronger enemies.

SatanLucy
Mm... Tremere?


Yes, but I played all others too. I probably completed the game about 50 times. Of course a blood mage vampire would be my first choice, and its also overpowered because his first ability, blood strike, can actually defeat anyone in the game as long as you keep spamming it and using blood packs to restore blood. I also liked completing the game with guns alone, but you can even complete the game with fists alone or knife on some characters. It is one single game I enjoyed playing over and over. I dont know what I liked more, using powers to control enemies, to make them go insane, using powers to become basically impossible to harm with high fortitude power and high defense, or when I realized that there is no need to invest any points in strength because blood buff gives you full strength on its own anyway. Its one of those games where there are thousands of interesting things to try.
