  • Hint: the investment of $11 billion refers to investment of Gates Foundation in fossil fuels.

    Well, considering these exact words were used:

    That foundation owns over $11 billion in investments in the fossil fuel industry, including coal-burning utility companies.

    What can I say but duh. If I misunderstood anything, it was the comment I replied to, which was unclear about the “0.05% down from 6%” detail, and seemed to be associating that with the $11 billion figure by context.

    But hey, nice deflection, and super cool of you to be that rude about it, too.

    The shifting pronouns midway through threw me off for a while because I couldn’t track how many characters were active in the scene. Basically, though, the lord is transfem. The farmer addresses her as female (and maybe compliments her chest, not sure). She thanks him, because she was boymoding (attempting to present as male because that’s what’s expected of her), but the farmer recognized her as female anyway. The farmer remains entirely unaware of what happened.

    I don’t know what a “piss levy” is.
