The New Trend in Making Money is Known as Edutainment Influencer Branding
And I think that what we are seeing happening right now, with the power of democratized emerging new media like creating a podcast or shortclip video or any edutainment media, there are thousands of individuals who have stood up and created their own brand and their own presence because of the content that they create, on Youtube , Tiktok , Twitch, on Twitter, on InstaReels ,and even for Facebook Live and as a result, they become the trusted sources of influence, which is why they are called influencers.

Have you heard of DALL.E?
Let me start this off by explaining what DALL.E is. Here is what their website says: "DALL·E is an AI system developed by OpenAI that can create original, realistic images and art from a short text description." "It can make realistic and context-aware edits, including inserting, removing, or retouching specific sections of an image from a natural language description. It can also take an image and make novel and creative variations of it inspired by the original."

I Have Become AFOL
Okay, okay, I know that the title is not grammatically correct. Well, not grammatically correct if you break apart the acronym of AFOL. But what or who is AFOL? Is it the Abstract Friends of Oscar Leonard? Or the Australian Federation of Onion Lovers? No, it is neither of these. AFOL is an acronym that stands for Adult Fans of LEGO, and is pronounced like the word awful.

Collecting & Spending
Throughout my life, I find myself going through different fandoms. A fandom is a subculture composed of people who share a common strong interest in a particular person or thing and I used to believe that the things you are interested in say a lot about who you are. Expressing your fandoms to the world is great but shouldn't come at a cost. Whether it's owning a prop replica of a Batman Batarang, an Alien Facehugger plushie or a Sailor Moon t-shirt; I felt like I needed these things in order to be labeled as a “true” fan. It’s easy to become obsessed with something new and quickly purchase everything that relates to it in the remotest sense. Funko Inc., a company that manufactures licensed pop culture collectibles has people willing to pay a thousand of dollars for a vinyl figurine to add to their collection. I would never pay that much money for one item but if you add the other stuff I have purchased in the past, it comes pretty close.

Collecting Pokémon Cards is an Expensive Endeavour
In 1999 I made a choice. A choice to begin collecting Pokémon cards and bowing down to the might of Pikachu. To catch em' all no matter what the cost. Something that is easily more achievable with enough money today than it was 22 years ago.

Chad Duell and Courtney Hope: Fans knew they had split before it became breaking news
General Hospital: Fans figured it out Chad Duel (Michael Corinthos, GH) and Courtney Hope (Sally Spectra (Y&R) are wonderful actors and had been living together for 5 years when they married in October 2021. Fans were happy for them and enjoyed the photos they shared of the lavish wedding. Unfortunately, since they are celebrities their private business is always in the public eye. Sometimes soap watchers with a keen eye are not being negative or overstepping their bounds but they simply see what is right in front of them.
