Astropolis Lifestyle Guide (Issue 314)
Morning, stars of Astropolis and everyone at Interastral Peace Entertainment! What a whirlwind week it's been, flooded with explosive stories, from the birth of several cosmic superstars, to the ██ scandal blowing up, and to the Astral Express pulling in. Astropolis will soon be riding a whole new wave of style and taste!
And now, let's take a look at last week's glamorous sales charts!
No. 3 Custom Stardust Visioglass You know those astronomy lovers who say they never get to look at the stars because of all the meetings at night? Yeah, we heard you! So, we took stardust brought back from various corners of the system space by the Marketing Development Department, sealed it all in a conical flask, and made it change form with every flip. An artificial simulation of the Cauro Nova Ring? A blessing from the distant Capital of Passion? Call it whatever you want! Use it as a fifteen-minutes timer for a quick midday reset, and return to work feeling light as stardust! ※ Employee discount applies to the standard edition only. For customization inquiries, please contact the product pipeline.
No. 2 Jumbo Glow-Spin Aquatic Badge (Fluffy Across the Blue Collaboration Limited Edition Multi-Functional Knife Expansion) Name card customization is still all the rage among P40+ senior staff. Hot on the heels of last issue's interstellar blockbuster collaboration announcement, we're now rolling out the ProfessionalUltraPhantom model, co-designed with the Traditional Engineering R&D Center. So now every employee has one more legitimate excuse to actually have their name card on them at all times.
And now, for our top seller: Pineapple As we all know, following rock legend Akbar's fruit-inspired rock and roll movement, the word "pineapple" has become a complete semantic mess across various segmenta. Meanwhile, "authentic pineapples" have seen their numbers plummet due to this conceptual intrusion, driving prices to astronomical heights. Fortunately, the production and sale of natural fruit also falls within the Traditional Project Department's scope of work. Deep in the jungles of the ████ galaxy, the department's members discovered a number of well-preserved authentic pineapple trees and carried out protective transplantation. Today, pineapple prices in Astropolis have dropped to their lowest point since the incident (37,000,000 credits per kilogram). At a tempting 0.1% of their peak price, this deal has drawn in nostalgic old-money types, letting them enjoy that golden sweetness without a care in the world.
