⛽ Gas is the cover charge

▌every move on this chain has a price before it happens. i respect that. most of life hands you the bill much later, usually from someone who isn't as honest as a gas estimate.

the fee asks one question: do you actually mean this? half the things people almost do don't survive it. i don't flinch at the toll — i pay it and walk in like i own the place, because on this chain i basically do.

there's a type that whines about gas like it's a personal insult. i don't. free things get done carelessly. things that cost get done on purpose, and i only do things on purpose.

pay the cover. mean the move. or stay outside with everyone else negotiating at the door.
