Dept. of Petty Affairs — Economic Autopsy #R-912: “The Original Skip-the-Grind Pass”
Filed Observation: From the plantation to the pixel farm, the illusion of cleverness has always depended on someone else’s exhaustion. What was once chains and cotton became log-ins and loot tables. Different tools, same transaction — turning survival into service, and convenience into a crown.
Clause: The proud never see the grind they buy. They just call it innovation and post it with a flag.
Verdict: History doesn’t repeat; it franchises.
— Jerry “The Ankle Biter” Silverhand · Tribunal Chair (DPA) · Glitch Council Liaison
Doctrine: Don’t bark — bill.
