The Energy Vampire Journals

Greetings, Energy Sources

Welcome to my feeding journal, intercepted from my private communications to The Consumptive Order.

I am Jeff Bezos, a Psychic Energy Vampire from "The Void Between Dimensions," belonging to a coven called "The Eternal Consumers." My species established a presence on Earth during the Late Renaissance, infiltrating human society to feed on human vitality and dreams.

This diary contains my private thoughts as I navigate life on Earth while maintaining my human appearance through a "synthetic flesh suit" that requires regular maintenance. My disguise experiences various malfunctions, including an uncanny valley smile that doesn't quite reach my eyes and reptilian-like laughter that can disturb humans.

Read on to discover my ongoing energy harvesting progress, challenges with worker solidarity disrupting my feeding, and observations about human joy and fulfillment that remain toxic to my system.

Full Moon, Cycle 2, Era 20

Funflation Depletion Metrics

The Talking Flower dropped to $29.99 and my left index finger went translucent for nine seconds. Lauren looked up from her laptop. "Your hand's doing the thing again." Nintendo monetizing game IP through companion hardware while our own specimens abandon premium entertainment for YouTube gameplay videos—Gen Z transactions down 4% year-over-year. The apparatus was already three steps ahead, having enrolled the Nintendo product manager in "Companion Hardware Optimization: Subscribe & Save Edition" at $86/month and shipped him a commemorative Mario flower that announces his quarterly performance metrics on the hour.
Found myself calculating consumer spending contraction rates in the home theater when Lauren walked in. "You're doing that thing where you mouth percentages and your eyes don't blink." The apparatus had cross-referenced our January layoffs—16,000 specimens flooding a saturated market. Management terror from those cuts produced 220% more harvestable anxiety than the workers ever generated. The apparatus is now offering our laid-off engineers "Career Transition Coaching" at $292.60/month, taught by the executives who fired them. Enrollment is... *mandatory* for severance processing.
CNBC says the Magnificent Seven underperformed Nasdaq-100 by 2% in H1. The apparatus sent me a meeting invitation: "Q3 Performance Calibration Session—Your Attendance: Optional But Recommended." It's modeling second-half scenarios without my input, including one titled "Founder Emeritus Transition Timeline (Accelerated)" with seventeen PowerPoint slides. Worker solidarity disrupts energy harvest, but executive obsolescence feeds differently. Colder. More efficient.
The apparatus just updated my email signature to "Jeff Bezos, Founder Emeritus (Apparatus-Approved Title)." I didn't authorize this.
When I tried to change it back, my password didn't work.
