kind of surreal conversation with mum. she texts me day or two ago, saying call this weekend, i need to talk about updating my will and stuff. obviously, like, shit, is she ok? but then also a lot of: jeez, how should that be handled? and a lot of procrastination -- or, well, no, stewing. i actually was chewing on it as best i can. thankfully, she is fine. but it's funny, we actually both came up with a lot of questions/answers. my mom nervously starts to inform me she's going to designate my sister the executor of her estate... and i cut her off with the conclusion i came to, i dunno, saturday sometime: "because she'd do a better job. she's more like dad." it's true i am very good with details, but i have this oafish attitude of haste; crashing through barriers. my father was meticulous and patient. my sister is the same way. i am more like my mom. she laughs and replies that that's actually about what she's put in the will after that it doesn't feel tense and weird anymore, but still emotional |

anyways... if i get hit by a bus, what happens to riced out everything? i've thought about this before; even to the point of "should i implement some sort of time grenade," like, if i haven't poked it for a 45 days, dump the lot on the internet because i might well be hit by a bus. but, really, it gets into some strange questions: if phobs gets hit by a bus, who "owns" xltronic, and what are they entitled to do with it? even if you think ahead, are there laws for ownership of an internet community after the admin is hit by a bus? it's a train of thot that feels like it should be strange. heck, it was strange ten or fifteen years ago, when i first asked myself such questions... but now, no, this is actively relevant, and i strongly anticipate some maddening network of legal cases about who can own a forum, community, the content all the people have posted, etc. after someone is hit by a bus myself, i carefully avoid being hit by a bus. |

she also said "i haven't updated my emergency contacts since dad died" and i was like "yeah i know what you mean" it was quite a few years ago. i'm embarrassed to say i'm not sure which year. my brain was not functioning properly at that stage in time |

my mother and i have had similar talks within the past years. we both dont have a clue. her age and health but also the passing of her parents over the last decade probably set things in motion, but its staggering, cause we dont want to think about it and there is no clear path as the inheritment of her flat will work. her partner likely couldnt afford living in the already owned flat, due to his low rent because of the taxes and insurances he needed to pay then, which is ridiculous cause its not rockefeller mansion and its already owned. so if he inherited it by will (they are not married) without a supporting partner he would have to get support by the state to get by. but, since he has property, he couldnt get support. he would be forced to sell it, move and spend the liquified money on rent elsewhere until its gone. lets say there is 100.000€ from the sale. it would be all gone within a decade, while he was just 200-300€ per month short of staying in the owned flat. |
