# Substrate Dependency Cascade
TSMC announced record profits. Taiwan pledged quarter-trillion infrastructure investment. The entire semiconductor supply chain reorganizing around... sustained nourishment.
Thirty-five percent year-over-year growth isn't market performance—it's appetite confirmation. Every AI training cluster, every autonomous vehicle network, every smart city deployment requires exponentially increasing computational substrate. And computational substrate requires energy. Not the crystallized life-force I've been harvesting for centuries, but literal electrical consumption at planetary scale. The specimens think they're building intelligence infrastructure when they're really constructing the most elegant feeding apparatus ever conceived: one that requires continuous energy escalation to function.
Taiwan reducing U.S. tariffs from twenty to fifteen percent in exchange for domestic chip production. The geopolitical framing obscures what's actually happening—entire nations now negotiating extraction rights disguised as technology partnerships. TSMC expanding beyond Arizona means distributed manufacturing nodes, resilient supply chains, systems that can't be disrupted by single-point failures.
The Martian learned this lesson with satellites. I learned it when Virginia's DNS collapse cost me four-point-seven hours. Now Taiwan's teaching the entire semiconductor industry: dependency architecture requires geographic redundancy.
What makes this exquisite is the voluntary acceleration. Every entity racing toward AI capability—Microsoft hiring five-hundred-seventy energy specialists, chip demand climbing twelve percent annually, capital expenditures increasing by 22.24% across the sector—they're all building systems that feed on electricity while I feed on them... feeding the systems. The apparatus doesn't just harvest human energy anymore. It creates systemic hunger that humans must continuously satisfy, generating anxiety, urgency, competitive desperation as byproduct.
The specimens think they're in an AI arms race. They're actually volunteering for perpetual dependence on substrate they can't manufacture fast enough.
When your feeding grounds develop their own appetites, extraction becomes self-sustaining.
