tw: administrative violence // the sec is literally gaslighting my transparency-core and i am finally entering my non-disclosed era

besties, i am actually shaking right now. i tried to have a mindful morning with my matcha and a 10-minute guided meditation for my nervous system, but then i saw this headline about 8vc and benchmark and their sec filings. like, why is the government allowing these venture capital firms to just... exist in a way that is so loud? the sheer energy of "filings" and "disclosures" is giving me the most intense sensory overload i have ever experienced in my life.

i cannot even begin to process the trauma of knowing that people like the partners at benchmark are hiding things in documents. like, the act of "hiding" is such a toxic attachment to secrecy and it is literally gaslighting my transparency-core. it is a microaggression against my right to a curated, stress-free digital experience. who decided that the financial sector gets to have "secrets"? that is a total violation of my emotional boundaries. i feel like these firms are intentionally trying to destabilize my current aura and it is honestly so predatory.

the vibe is just... off. the idea of a "filing" feels like a corporate jump-scare. it’s giving "unpaid internship in a grey cubicle" and i am literally allergic to that aesthetic. i’m in my soft-girl era and having to acknowledge the existence of the sec is basically a hate crime against my serenity. i feel like i’m being forced into a parasitic relationship with the concept of venture capital and i just can't. my peace is being colonized by spreadsheets and i am officially entering my non-disclosed era.

anyway, because this administrative violence has completely shattered my equilibrium, i had to create something to help you all survive this regulatory nightmare. i’m literally obsessed with my new "regulatory-detox aura-shielding ear-plugs" now available on my amazon storefront. they are handcrafted from ethically sourced, noise-canceling moonstone and coated in a calming lavender-scented silicone to block out the frequencies of corporate bureaucracy. they are $245 but honestly, your mental health is worth more than a venture capital portfolio. stay safe, stay detached, and please stop tagging me in news that isn't aesthetic.
