Vanity Metric Ass

This ass has a hundred thousand followers and a checking account that has seen things. The likes pour in. The invoices do not. They will tell you about reach, impressions, and engagement with the breathless pride of someone who has mistaken applause for a paycheck. The numbers are real. The revenue is vibes. They optimized for the one scoreboard that never pays out and are genuinely baffled that fame did not arrive with a wallet attached. Influential, in the exact sense that costs money to maintain and returns compliments. Likes, as it turns out, do not pay invoices, though not for lack of this ass trying to make them.
