WELP

Car's dead.

God, I want to whine about being broke, but I should really stop doing that; last time, a few people were nice enough to send me some money for groceries, but it's not something I should expect.

Talked to Daniel about the possibility of doing Tarot online for serious. His wife does it for parties for $200, but her religious principles prevent her from profiting--she gives most of it to charity after deducting transportation costs. (Why do it at all then, I ask?)
He said if you set up a website and get your own chat server, it only costs a few hundred bucks. A few hundred bucks. I figure I could just use YIM for free or something, or set up a PayPal button on my LJ profile or something, charge five or ten bucks a reading and make grocery money until the loan money comes in or I get a meager fast-food paycheck. I don't know, would anyone be up for that for serious?

Sure. And just as TV shows end up with fans that weren't in the targeted demographic, websites get customers that don't fit the profile the makers expected.

But that's because there are only so many ways one can control consumers, and that's true of all media, so why expend undue energy worrying about it?

In fact, I'm less concerned about how gullible people might hypothetically choose to spend their money than I am about [livejournal.com profile] kleenexwoman's safety, seeing as she has a history of attracting wackos.

Whereas I, since I know nothing about her history, am more concerned with the state of her soul (or whatever it is that distinguishes a good person from a reprehensible one).

That would be Stephen Colbert. :D From the show Strangers with Candy, which I really need to get at some point.
