Capitalism sounds like a chapter straight out of a serious economics textbook. But in reality, its side effects are starting to look like a dark comedy. The world’s top five richest people—Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Bernard Arnault, Bill Gates, and Mark Zuckerberg—together control over $800 billion . Meanwhile, the poorer half of humanity owns less than that combined. Now imagine a small business owner in New Jersey who runs a family deli. He wakes up to see that everyone in his neighbourhood has switched to Amazon Fresh. His vegetables are rotting in the fridge. He sighs, “Maybe I should just mail these tomatoes to Bezos—he can use them for rocket fuel in SpaceX.” Or picture a Canadian bookstore owner in Toronto.

Omar Rary’s blog isn’t just a blog—it’s like a diary that accidentally got WiFi. Normally diaries stay hidden, but this one’s wide open. One day he’s writing deep thoughts like why coffee feels like therapy, the next day it’s “a squirrel looked at me weird.” Reading it feels like opening a fridge at 2 a.m.—half pizza, random ketchup packet, leftover Chinese food. No logic, just vibes. His brain runs like Netflix—new episodes drop daily, no plot, but you keep binge-reading.
