I was bought an expensive dress from a store that has couches in the changing rooms.

I’ve tasted the sweet ambrosia of wealth and I want more like a hungry vampire.

It has become clear to me that by seeing how the other half live that I can no longer tolerate my “tankie” existence and I shall henceforth be pulling myself up by my thigh highs and becoming rich.

My plan includes:

  • voting (hard)
  • virtue signalling to the upper political class
  • Smith (I’m not sure who he is but I’ve heard he has all the answers)
  • turning a blind eye to the systemic problems in our system because I benefit from it
  • reading the economist

Don’t worry I won’t forget you guys while I dine at gastro pubs and judge the proles for sharing the same air I breath.

I’ll even mention you when I’m rubbing elbows with the elites in a few months 🥰

Now begins my upper class crumpet life.

    NYT writer tapping their pencil rapidly against the paper and clutching their head trying to think of a tasteful way to compare caviar to Chinese womens’ eggs so they can make a quippy reference to China’s birthrate.

    (They can’t think of a tasteful way, but they do it anyway)

      Maybe I can find inspiration from my China mood board 💡
