Straight up, my sister has instructions and a detailed doc to follow if I die with unfinished works

Big fan of characters realizing they don't get to die. They have to live. And grow. And be a person. And deal with shit they thought they'd never have to. And be fucked up about it. I would like more of this. Enough dying for honor or as redemption. It ain't. You're just a corpse. There is no moral value in dirt time.

This makes me so sad and also I'm trying to remember if any of the Discworld books dealt with late stage capitalism

Talk to construction workers and you will learn that the million-dollar mansions being made today are total garbage that will fall apart within a few decades.

Decades? Try years. Try immediately. I toured a high-end development demo house once and the place was already shit. Drawers didn't fit right on their runners, doors not hung right, all sorts of other small issues. The people I know who work in the trades say they're not allowed to spend the time to build these places right. Labour costs money and everyone from the owners to the developers to the contractors wants to save a few dollars. And that includes the private mansions they've worked on. It all adds up to small leaks and minor inconveniences that build into structural problems that will make these places uninhabitable in less time than it takes to pay the mortgage.
