there are some odd choices on this kittybux note. the phrase "hello kitty's paradise" is a strange thing to put on a banknote . . . is this implying that the money itself is a form of paradise for hello kitty, or that maybe hello kitty's paradise is the issuing authority for the note? hmm, wonder if hello kitty's paradise is still on the gold standard.

stranger still is the decision to describe the hello kitty character the way an intellectual property lawyer would do so: "Hello Kitty is a fictional character portrayed as a female white Japanese Bobtail Cat with a red bow." like those are the questions racing through the mind of someone who encounters a kittybux note in the wild. "oh thanks for the gift young child, can you tell me what breed of cat this cartoon character represe--oh never mind, it says it right here, just under the teacup bunny."

(HK Marketing team, deciding on the background image for the reverse side of the 1MM note) "My kids just love grapes lets include that somehow"

perhaps that's the explanation for "hello kitty's paradise," the random stuff is explained by being something you'd find in hello kitty's actual or imagined perfect world. grapes or balloons or both.

Hello Kitty is a piece of conceptual art meant to introduce children to the concept of "death of the author" and, more broadly, the postmodern conspiracy to undermine reason and prepare the way for the antichrist

e: and we're apparently ahead of schedule, excellent
