sometimes it feels acutely unfair that being a decent shitposter doesn't make you a millionaire and I'm doomed to a life of answering emails for 6 figures
NFTs are wild cause if you're gonna spend $50k for a picture of a meme, it should at least be a huge replica that you keep in a secret collection to show off to a bored woman who can't wait for you to stop droning on about your insipid views on art

In middle school I met someone on AIM who sent me a novella her friend wrote and it was a romance story set in Vietnam written in broken English with a confusing alternating first person narration, and it was the most beautiful love story that absolutely demolished me for days.
I liked it so much I made my mom read it and her reaction was mostly “WHO sent this to you? WHY are you getting unpublished manuscripts from strangers on the internet?”
Spent my whole life thinking this is something that just happens to people, like “oh yeah, I got romance novel fished myself one time *blush*, what can you do I was just a kid, they know how to target adolescents with a heart that’s open to international literature.”
I don’t even remember how they sent the story. I feel like when I gave it to my mom it was in the form of a printed out AIM convo, but that can’t be right, can it? Surely that’s just my brain retconning maximum cringe into the memory
