digital artwork of Cael Delor, tenetke's character in the AthraPlay podcast. Cael is a feminine individual with long dark brown hair in a braid, brown skin, Indigenous facial tattoos on the chin, and feathered earrings. They are wearing green and brown Ranger armor, and carry a curved sword with a red jewel that resembles an eye. The text reads "Who's next?" in reference to a moment from the podcast. A self-portrait by tenetke of themself as a tiefling. A feminine individual with shoulder-length wavy red hair, pointed ears, curved black ram horns, red eyes, black painted lips, and sharp teeth with blood dripping from the corner of the mouth.

your email finds me deeply unwell. teetering on the edge really
If I made a bluesky that was just for tax advice and updates would people be interested in that? Followers can field questions to me for answering, as well.
TIL that there are people who think you don't have to file a tax return if you are not a U.S. citizen.

This is not correct!

Non-citizens who earn taxable U.S. income DO file a tax return. They apply for & use an ITIN (Individual Taxpayer Identification Number) rather than a Social Security Number.

WHEN THERE’S NO TREASURE BEHIND THE WATERFALL: Wow. Too stuck-up to put treasure there huh? Too much of a fucking ICONOCLAST for that? Piece of shit. FUCK you

truly there is no context i can give that would make this make any more sense - a billionaire who fancies themselves a philosopher decided they wanted to make a comparison between the powered up form of an anime protag and Revelations Jesus 😭 we live in the unserious timeline for sure.
comparing gear 5 luffy to christ from the book of revelations is actually the funniest thing i have ever read
thiel, man, what the fuck are you talking about

He describes the plot of Watchmen, a 1986 graphic novel involving superheroes grappling with moral questions about humanity against the backdrop of impending nuclear war:

The antihero Ozymandias, the antichrist-type figure, is sort of an early-modern person. He believes this will be a timeless and eternal solution – eternal world peace. Moore is sort of a late-modern. In early modernity, you have ideal solutions, ‘perfect’ solutions to calculus. In late modernity, things are sort of probabilistic. And at some point, he asks Dr Manhattan whether the world government is going to last. And he says that ‘nothing lasts forever.’ So you embrace the antichrist and it still doesn’t work.

Thiel later finds biblical meaning in the manga One Piece, discussing how he believes it represents a future where an antichrist-like one-world government has repressed science. He believes that the hero, Monkey D Luffy, represents a Christlike figure.

In One Piece, you are set in a fantasy world, again sort of an alternate earth, but it’s 800 years into the reign of this one-world state. Which, as the story unfolds, gradually gets darker and darker. You sort of realize, in my interpretation, who runs the world and it’s something like the antichrist. There’s Luffy, a pirate who wears a red straw hat, sort of like Christ’s crown of thorns. And then towards the end of the story, transforms into a figure who resembles Christ in Revelation.

Thiel, along with a researcher and writer at Thiel Capital, explored these ideas at greater length in an essay for the religious journal First Things earlier this month.

i regularly get added to lists that have transphobic and anti-native slurs in them but sure. okay. poor AI slop posters i guess.
