Sometimes I Forget That There Are Wild Hamsters

A new mural popped up in Philadelphia. I love my city.

The most successful pirate in history was a Chinese prostitute. Cheng I Sao had an unbeatable fleet with 80,000 sailors, which was bigger than most countries’ navies, and the government eventually had to give up and offer her a truce. She retired with her loot, opened a gambling house, and later died, peacefully, a 69-year-old grandmother. Source Source 2 Source 3

How much is a billion?

Recently, LeBron James bought a super mansion for 23 million dollars. 

A Lamborghini Venano is 4.5 million. 

This private island in the Bahamas cost 20 million.

This Private Jet- a Bombardier Lear Jet is 3 million.

The most expensive horse ever sold was 9 million.

This loft mansion in New York is 43 million.

So, you could buy LeBron James’s mansion, a Lamborghini, a private island, a private jet, the most expensive horse ever, and a loft mansion in New York, and it would all cost you 102 million dollars. 

With a BILLION? You could do that nearly 10 more times (You’d have to forgo the 10th Mansion, OR the 10th private island to stay in budget.) 

So no. No one needs that. No one needs enough wealth to own 9 mansions, 10 Lamborghinis, 10 private jets, 10 of the most expensive horses ever to exist, and 10 loft mansions in New York. 

No one needs a billion dollars. 

hell is right-clicking to save an image and accidentally clicking ‘email image’ and having to wait forty years for some email program you didn’t even know existed to rise from its slumber like some lovecraftian ancient god, meanwhile the fans on your laptop are preparing for takeoff and you stare dead-eyed as the rainbow spirals, spirals, spirals. you wait and suffer this cosmic karma. days pass. “just a few more seconds” you slur. your laptop freezes and the concept of time is no longer comprehensible. your family and friends forget your name and you fade from existence.

Enhancement should say: Make things do stuff, better.

Otherwise I love the simple but insightful explanations, and the art.
