"Being exactly wrong is actually a useful thing to be. It’s the next best thing to being right. You can get to right by flipping exactly wrong. Flipping somewhat wrong merely makes you somewhat wrong in a new way.

To seek meaning is to believe in truth before virtue, virtue before beauty, beauty before creation, creation before victory. This is the honor code of meaning-seeking. If you follow this code perfectly, you will make exactly no money."

Venkatesh Rao, "Immortality Begins at Forty"

@shel I wonder if they're somewhere in line for Silicon Valley to try to do their business model better than them then :v

@rachel 🎃

@shel united way has a pretty sweet deal going on there it looks like

my heuristics for shenanigans are faulty i guess

@shel ah, ok. so that really doesn't lead to any nefarious things then.

it would have probably been even more efficient if there were some pre-tax way to give that, so you just effectively weren't even paid that at all.

@shel still, donating to your own charity seems rare and interesting enough that it probably does get someone staring at it if they notice

@mxsparks in the end, it's all spooks :max_stirner:

@shel i wouldn't be surprised if that gets her flagged for review in one of these irs review passes

sleepy at work, the worst feel

@Elizafox everything is fucked, everybody sucks
