Notes

Credits and personnel
gollark: The stock market isn't really like that.
gollark: It's just some bizarre game where you try and guess whether people will buy shares in things, but it's totally disconnected from any property of the actual meme.
gollark: It's not really an economy for memes, it doesn't work like a real market.
gollark: 🦀
gollark: So what's *not* banned, then?
