Saeculum [he/him, comrade/them]
And, like, cishet men, their whole thing is supposed to be being in to women, and that just strikes me as really weird that there’s not an equivalent.
I mean, read any het romantic poetry written by a man from now to like, the beginning of writing and you’ll run across some version of:
“This girl looked at me and I died and then she smiled at me and I came back to life”.
Sure, poetry’s not as popular now as it used to be, especially for heterosexual men, but people are still making it and sharing it, so presumably those spaces. I’m pretty sure that line almost verbatim is in at least two recent pop songs.
Green power needs significant overcapacity at the moment though right? Because sometimes it’s not sunny or not windy, and balancing that across large regions through the grid costs a ton of money.
It’s a waste, sure, but it would be wasted anyway and this makes building green power a little more profitable in the system we’re forced to live under.
People complain about it a lot, but I’ve never actually ran into a system that uses any maths beyond what a five-year-old should be capable of. Closest I think might be Mutants and Masterminds with stacking multipliers, but still just some extra steps. Nothing that knowing your times tables wouldn’t prepare you for.
