'We used to make things in this country!' says Cat. 'I made a WHEEL. Then we drop-shipped wheels in this country. Then we made reaction videos to wheels. Then we wrote an unauthorized biography of the wheel, then we made a movie from the wheel's point of view.' 'A real stinker! But something of a cult classic' says Girl. 'Then we staged a musical based on a movie about the wheel,' Cat continues, 'to leverage our existing wheel I.P. Then we read the book about the wheel on a podcast about the book about the wheel. The we made a twelve hour Netflix series based on the musical about the wheel in which the wheel has a cameo as the guy who made the wheel.' They stand in the desert. 'So where is it?' asks Girl. 'Where's what' says Cat.

All Times Are Limited, Strictly Speaking

November 25, 2022

For the next week the attic store is going to be OPEN AGAIN for orders. There’s a limited amount of stuff in there! And I have a limited amount of patience with the current modern era of packing and shipping things.
