hope this clears everything up

A hand-drawn Venn diagram titled “Bubbles” with four overlapping circles labeled Beanie Babies, NFTs, AI, and Dot-com. Each circle includes phrases like “Gamble on plushies,” “Gamble on JPEGs,” “Gamble on LLMs,” and “Gamble on HTML.” Overlapping areas note shared traits such as “The products tend to have cutesy first names,” “Mostly in private markets,” “Good people got hurt,” “Genuinely important underlying technology,” and “This URL could be worth millions!” The center intersection reads: “Somebody got rich, but probably not you.” The overall tone is humorous and critical of speculative tech and collectible bubbles.
