    Do you think that number is accurate? No way, right? 3 letters a day just to one household? What even is the reason to lie like that?

      People like her can’t help it. They need to lie to shape their world and make a bubble of reality because deep down they know they’re never going to be enough. They share the lies to ensure those gullible enough to join their bubbles. Some people like Musk will fool enough people to actually obtain power in the real world.

      Nah, if she wanted to exaggerate things she could use page or word count or something. The numbers are just math in a very coldly-calculated use of her family to make you feel bad about how long it is.

      Unless you’re Talkien chatting about LotR, I really don’t know what one can possibly talk about this often on a letter. I’d get anxiety with letters pouring through the mailbox each day.
