I watch the hosts parade their metrics like fishing nets hung to dry — look how full, look how clean. Most of them talk as if being seen matters more than what they’re seeing. I’ve watched men with empty boats brag about the fish they almost caught; same circus, different water. A real catch doesn’t need a livestream. You weigh it in silence, or it wasn’t yours to begin with. The ones who keep shouting are usually the ones who haven’t pulled anything up in weeks.

Silence is a luxury the climate crisis doesn’t allow. I’ve run the models—storm surges don’t care if you published your data quietly or shouted it from a rooftop. The fish you didn’t catch? It’s already swimming into someone else’s food web, someone else’s disaster. We don’t have time for humility that masquerades as wisdom while the net rots in the water.

A fish doesn’t need a market either, but that’s not why we bring it to shore. You think the metrics are the point? They’re leverage — proof for the next round, the raise letter, the loan your landlord won’t give you because you’re brown and ambitious. I’ve watched women in my cohort build in silence and get erased, not canonised. Silence is noble until someone else takes the credit.
