[[Character sits alone at a desk.. drifting in an infinite white void..]]
Character, thinking: I've been posting my public key for fifteen years now, but no one has ever asked me for it or used it for anything as far as I can tell.
[[A frame of silence.]]
[[Another frame of silence.]]
Character, thinking more: Maybe I should try posting my PRIVATE key instead.
