I went to Loblaws one day in 2020 or 2021. I was obsessed with LSE school’s msc program city or chemical engineering degree. A group of people walked past me. One of them said city. It alarmed me. I looked at them as they walked by me. I found them quite insane looking like they are from a show or a sort of movies. They made me think about French people and the French president, Emanuel Macron. I also thought about TikTok and clubhouse. Are they influencers? Or is the world always filled with powerful and rich people like them? Etc.
