“all are equal in the grave” - Richard Kadrey
"Ok, ma'am that'll be $226.03."
I take my wallet out of my pocket and unfold it. It is empty other than a single moth that lazily flies out. The moth lands on the tap point of the card reader. There's a beat, and my payment is processed. The moth flies back into my wallet and I put it back in my pocket.

My hot tip for life is that there is nothing more fun than enabling an academic to talk about their special interest. Like, I will listen all day to a stodgy old phd waxing poetic about the five years they spent studying giant squid in the arctic. I could be entertained for hours by a classics major telling me all about niche beef between two writers in the 17th century. Literally nothing better, highly recommend it, 10/10.
