It\u2019s for those of us who do our bit to fill the web with stuff that someday someone special may stumble across and think: \u201ccool\u201d. Or words to that effect.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s for those who have no choice in the matter. We write or otherwise concoct whatever comes tumbling unbidden out of our <a href=\"http:\/\/prettygoodbritain.com\/wp\/?p=3992\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">brains<\/a>, work it till it&#8217;s just right or as right as we can make it, then let it go. Then it goes nowhere. Which can be discouraging despite the awesome freedom that comes with always flying under the radar. We can say whatever we want! It will have absolutely no effect on the observable universe.<\/p>\n<p>How do you know you belong in this club? It\u2019s easy. All you have to do is post something somewhere and wait for nothing to happen. What do you expect is going to happen anyway? Are you waiting for applause? Kudos? Validation of the wonder that is you? I would say \u201cgrow up\u201d but chances are you\u2019re already grown up enough to know the world has placed a value on your efforts, and that value is nil.<\/p>\n<p>Zero Club costs nothing to join. You don\u2019t have to officially register or anything. We have no bylaws, other than this: Keep on keepin\u2019 on.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/prettygoodbritain.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/jack.gif\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-5403\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5403\" src=\"http:\/\/prettygoodbritain.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/jack.gif\" alt=\"jack\" width=\"550\" height=\"369\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a club for content creators who work in the pristine vacuum of public indifference.
