Coucou! C’est moi, Larissa! There are so many new emails hanging out with us (thank you to all our new subscribers!) that we’ve decided to repost some of our older pieces for the ones with thumb fatigue who don’t feel like scrolling down the archives (it’s all good, we understand)!

Kelly’s poem from last week about the subs and tax evasion made me think of this piece I wrote way back in the long forgotten days of April 2022. I kept thinking back to it as I:

  1. Watched the memes and TikTok jokes about billionaires on the sub, often framing it as good news.

  2. Watched and read the resulting think pieces about how literally we should take the phrase ā€œEat the richā€

  3. Saw at least 4 people comparing Sub schadenfreude with the years leading up to the French Revolution

  4. Had a bite of the indulgently delicious Hot People Host a Dinner Party, which reminded me of the frou-frou cakes in Sophia Coppola’s ā€œMarie Antoinetteā€

So, much like Kelly’s own Carrie Bradshaw moment, I couldn’t help but wonder, is the sub the new Lusitania, or the new guillotine?

There is no technofeudalism

And there are no digital

Guillotines but maybe

Choke daddy Bezos

If he’s into that kind of thing

Swipe right on that Meta

Versailles bratty switch

Out your cash for Etherium I

Swear it’s not a scam besides

My nudes are NFTs

Not for techbros though like

Maybe if you want it

Enough everything is pixel

And nothing hurts


Here’s the original intro to this piece:

So as a response to Kelly’s poem from last week about a perfect match did you know Larissa hasn't had a Tinder (or any) date in over 9 months and that the wealth gap is bigger now than during the French Revolution? Anyway…. here’s a totally unrelated poem

And I will stick with its original poetry prompt:

The poetry prompt for this week is revolution. Jk, bake a brioche and write a poem about how sexy you are.


If you like what we do here you can send us a one time slice of cake over on Ko-Fi:

Or if you wanna help out but are suffering cause the billionaires keep hoarding the wealth, you can share PTK with your fellow revolutionary friends and family:
