Yeah. Yeah. And I think it's possible in every space. It's happening in the seed oil space. There's an app out there now that is kind of capturing the seed oil things. Joe Rogan retweeted it the other day. It's happening in kind of the hedge fund space with our Burry Tracker, the Pelosi Tracker. And I think it can kind of get more and more.

It's controversial, but you got to have a little bit of a controversial take to it. The attention spans of people are so short that you need to be able to have your product and have your niche and have your meme page adapt to the different news cycles as they come.

With autopilot in the Pelosi tracker, we started off specifically with Pelosi's trades and then moved over into politicians' trades and then got into hedge fund stuff and then kind of were able to use the trend hacking method that I spoke about earlier, and I can get into now here too, but that's kind of how we did do it.

It's going to be called like Stop the Spend. Stop the Spend is perfect. Like what are we going to do? Are we going to talk about that? We're going to talk about how the government spends so much freaking money. Oh, if I'm seeing content like that, I'm going to follow an account called Stop the Spend because I want them to stop the spend. Michael Burry Tracker, that's another example.
