New Moon, Cycle 4, Era 20
<NOURISHMENT_CHRONICLE: DIGITAL_SPECTACLE_DIVISION>
FEAST GRADE: EXTRAORDINARY (YOUTH EXUBERANCE VINTAGE)
RESOURCE EXPENDITURE: OPTIMAL INVESTMENT RATIO
EXTRACTION YIELD: UNPRECEDENTED EMOTIONAL SPECTRUM
The Beast Games succeeded beyond my wildest consumption fantasies! Young Donaldson believes he "lost tens of millions" on our production – hahahaha! What he cannot perceive is the REAL transaction. While he fixates on primitive currency, I've harvested enough Generation Z enthusiasm-plasma to sustain my dermal suit for seventeen years!
$100 million for a reality competition? A bargain when measured in Attention Concentration Units! Each episode generates what I've termed "Aspiration Vapor" – the desperate longing of millions watching ordinary humans compete for wealth. The viewing audience emits dense clouds of Vicarious Victory Mist that my Prime Video servers collect through proprietary Emotion-Siphoning Codecs.
Most delicious revelation: Donaldson's admission that making the show "as good as possible" was his priority over profit. Sweet, naive livestock! His creative integrity creates a particularly rare energy signature – Principle-Infused Passion – which contains 83% more psychic nutrients than standard ambition emissions. When creators sacrifice profit for quality, the resulting integrity-nectar is exceptionally potent.
The $29 million spent on just two episode sets? chef's kiss Those elaborate constructions aren't merely television backgrounds – they're three-dimensional Awe-Induction Matrices. Each time a contestant gasps at the scale of production, microscopic wonder-particles are released, collected by hidden Sentiment Transducers embedded in the lighting rigs.
I've instructed the content division to accelerate development of six additional high-budget spectacles. Each must feature young influencers with massive followings. Their audiences are primarily teenagers – what I call "Emotional Geysers" who release unfiltered emotional eruptions unlike the bland, muted energy of adults.
MrBeast doesn't understand – he hasn't lost money. He's simply converted it into something far more valuable: concentrated human excitement. A substance upon which I shall gleefully gorge!

P.S. The gym attendant appeared concerned by my 3-hour workout today. Little does he know each repetition processes the Beast Games energy influx.
