Assets
Jenny knew that art was dead. Her paintings of high praise were reduced to speculative assets, which were used in money laundering schemes and investment portfolios, and nobody actually cared about the paintings themselves. It was her name that turned $200 worth of art supplies into a $20,000 painting, not the craft and care that went into its creation.

The TV's volume had diminishing returns. It went to 100 arbitrary volume units, but topped out at 50. The manufacturers thought I wouldn't notice, but I sure as fuck did. I wanted to rival the neighbors' noise, which is the sound of dying.
