Let the auction ride @mandolinaes.

I can wait 1,000 days for this. But no one better show up at last minute and try to snipe me!

I was genuinely so excited today when I discovered that Pindar Van Arman (@VanArman) had placed a bid on one of my photographs on Manifold. I can't tell you how much that means to me! 🥹

But that excitement quickly turned into frustration when I realized what I'd done.

I somehow managed to set the auction to end in January 2030 instead of 24 hours after the first bid. Yes, you read that correctly. 2030.

And it's entirely my fault.

Now that Pindar has placed his bid, Manifold won't let me edit the auction or cancel it. So here I am, incredibly happy that he's interested in collecting my work and equally frustrated with myself for making such a ridiculous mistake.

I've already reached out to @manifoldxyz support, hoping there's some way to fix this.

Otherwise, I guess Pindar and I have just committed ourselves to the longest auction in the history of my photography career.

Three more years. THREE. 😩

I don't know whether to celebrate or bang my head against the wall right now.
