Ask Lemmy

I'd save it exclusively for people who drive like donkeys. I'll solve bad driving once and for all.

I just write, "FLORIDA".

Well first, spend a long time practicing tiny handwriting. Like, let's make the absolute most use out of this sheet as possible; it's possible to get the size of handwritten characters down to about 3mm, but let's say 4 with the assumption that I can't get it down that low. That means I have about 74 lines vertically to write in, each line able to accommodate somewhere between 70 and 52 characters, depending on the width. Let's average it to 60 characters per line, so 74x60 = 4,440 characters, times two for two sides of the page. Average number of characters per name is 7, so 14, plus two for spaces, and let's add another two for a middle initial and another space. That's 18 characters per name. This means I should be able to fit just under 500 names on the page if I use both sides as efficiently as possible.

I'll get the list of the 500 richest people in the world, and start going down it from richest on down. But not all at once. First the top name. One week later, the next name. One week after that, the next name down, and so on. After a few weeks the pattern would become obvious and we see what happens. Sadly I have no magical knowledge of who is the richest person at any given moment, so I have to just go off the list I already possess (or any new information I decide to be sufficiently trustworthy). One every week for five hundred names is 3,500 days, or 9.5 years. That is long enough to make it quite apparent this is inevitable and make it seem like it's going to continue forever, and it's long enough for legislation and other things to be done in response. Let's see how they freak out and what they try to do in response.

Honestly? I would start picking off officials. I would try and like... Persona 5 it. Send a warning to, say, Trump. "Do ___ by ____ or else" kind of thing. They don't follow through, I take them out. And just keep going until they start listening. Universal health care. No? Alright, I'm going to start picking off those opposed. 100% tax on money over a billion (honestly, I feel like couple million would suffice) . No? You know the drill. Pretty much hold officials ransom until they start fixing shit. I would stay vigilante. Not to make sure everyone is following the same rules or government, but if someone tries to pass a law to ban abortion in there country? Let me grab a pen.

I would even be open to submission, like a "Hell Girl" situation. Of course, not "so and so is stealing my boyfriend" but more, "this company continues to dump in our wager supply." I would use a very fine tipped pen if pencil wasn't allowed. I would hopefully get to spears it out over years so, by the time it's full, people can be used to being treated like people, hopefully. The idea of someone trying to lobby for a return to the health insurance modem would be a cause for mass strike, riots even. They wouldn't dare, because I would be watching.

Doesn't anyone here know that the Death Note (1) curses all those who use it with misfortune and (2) will trap your soul in limbo after use?

Nah, I'm good. Tweezers and a matchstick.

You know that list of the richest people in the world?

I would continue Luigi's legacy by trying to fit as many names of c-suite personnel of evil corporations on it, font size 1.

I'd probably just eat some chips or a cupcake while an entire police force discusses me for what feels like 600 hours and nothing at all ever happens

Light Yagami could get pretty elaborate with what he required people to act out in a Death Note, but I'm not sure exactly how to destabilize our globalist economy with only one page. It likely starts with using the leader of a capitalist country to kill a large swath of it's billionaire class at once, then forcing said leader to support the nationalization of healthcare, food production, transportation, mineral extraction, etc before trying to influence other capitalist nations to take the same path for the rest of their life before heart attack inevitably gets them. The problem is that I really think you only get to write this for one leader, due to the space requirements. I guess as long as the assumption that all the world's ills stem from America it's fine, but isn't Murdoch currently operating out of Australia? Missing even a few key billionaires with the initial murder leaves a lot of powerful opposition.

"Kolanaki, death by snu-snu."

Putin

Trump

Kim Jong Un

Netanyahu

All heart attacks, all at the same time. Play like Light except with world leaders. Undoubtedly I'm missing many, but I could add as needed. Minimal text size to leave space.

No public statements so I'm harder to trace. Then I save the page. If a world leader pulls some horrendous shit, down they go.

It would be flawed for the same reasons Light is, and it would be biased to my viewpoints, but I don't care. I cannot imagine the world would be a worse place with those people dead. And eventually people would spot the pattern and then leaders might think twice.

Although for the planet overall maybe it'd be better to use it for eco-terrorism
