  • And why is that? Because those creatives and designers can't sell their work.

    That's what I'm saying. As a creative, most of your work is getting others to understand why your creations are worth it.

    I admit, it's turning artists into salesman. But that's somewhat poetic. It's bridging the gap between how an artist expresses reality and their ability to relate that to the audience personally.

    Porcelain dolls are just anime figures for old people.

  • Don't be sad that's gone, appreciate that it ever happened.

    Also, remember to look up into the void and realise there's a genuine possibility that that goes on forever and none of this really matters.

    You're literally stuck to a rock in the middle of nowhere and nobody knows why.

  • We did however, evolve to see it. And say...

    "Whoever is reading this, I hope you have a really awesome day! We're all trying our best with what we know, so give yourself a break. You've got this. Just one foot in front of the other."

  • It never will be.

    This asset can be used as collateral for leverage. So now the owner has it, they can use it to put up maybe around $30,000,000 if they have a good enough relationship with a broker.

    Because of the way America is right now too, they can give trump a 10m cut if he slides a particular stock one way or another.

    President gets 10m, punter gets got knows how much, and nobody is any the wiser.

    It's the same with art, but with art, it's a lot more speculative, which is why you have so many god awful contemporary pieces, because again they'll pay an appraiser to say it's worth 100m when it's a handful of beans on a canvas, and then use that as collateral.

    These are just infinite money glitches for the rich.

    In all seriousness, there's nothing stopping you and your friends and their families from doing the same thing, but because it's not the system they designed they're going to be skeptical of it and not want to do that.

    The internet is a recursion engine. Your searches dictate the algorithm, which dictates what is fed to you, which dictates what you think about, which dictates what you search...
