Easy on the eyes. Palatable. Digestible. Inoffensive. Something that will not disgruntle the sensibilities of those who call the shots. Like a pageant contestant smiling and waving for hours not breaking a sweat.

The kind that would boost likes and shares. The kind that can be monetized and get clout. The kind we can get featured on our countless affiliate commercial machinery consumed by impressionable minds. Because God forbid we do not round the edges or soften the blow of reality and we actually have to take risks to make life better for those poor, young, impressionable dreamers.
