Justice. Prince Andrew has been proven completely innocent as his accuser backs down and admits that he doesn't need to go to court. There's only one conclusion to draw from this. He hasn't done a thing wrong. And if he has paid some money to someone he says he has never met then that just proves what a generous soul he must be.
When will people get off the Royal Family's back and let them do whatever the fuck they want (apart from Harry and Meghan)?
No doubt the Duke will have something to say about his amazing victory on Thursday's Twitch of Fun.
I am playing a cricket game on my iPhone which has so much admin in it - picking up rewards, training players etc that it struck me that if you run a business and can come up with the right game, you could probably get millions of people around the world to do basic tasks for you and maybe even get them to pay to do so. If you have to input data or just turn things on and off every now and again, put it up online, make a basic game of it, offer extra goes for cash… you could have the biggest workforce in the world and not have to pay any of them. And if you got the game right you would probably earn more money from it than from whatever business you were running.
It's so obvious an idea that I suspect it's already happening. Although I am not as addicted to the cricket game as I was to Homescapes (which I deleted on new year's eve and am much happier without and haven't missed a bit), I still play it for maybe an hour a day, coming back to it at regular intervals to pick up rewards. It's more of a hassle than fun, to be honest, but once you've invested time in something like this it's very hard to let it go. That's what I found with Homescapes. I actually sort of hated playing it - it could be very frustrating - but I'd got so far in it (and spent money on it) so it felt like it would be a waste of all that time and effort to let it go. In fact, of course, I was just adding more wasted time to the big pit of wasted time that I'd already created.
These things should be fun, but they have to also be painful and infuriating to get the real highs. But given most of them are just you doing quite a mundane job, why not make it into an actual mundane job?
Once we're all in the metaverse then I guess this is what life will be. Unless we're already in a metaverse. To be honest it seems mathematically improbable that we aren't. Would we know? Probably not. Maybe everything you're doing already is just clicking buttons that are paying some unknown person or being in the real world. And even they are likely in their own metaverse without knowing it. It's metaverses all the way down.
