Sorry, but Elon Musk is NOT the world's first trillionaire. It was, in fact, C Montgomery Burns.
A patriot and hero who stood up against America's reckless spendthrift politicians.
Oh, you can silence me. But you can't silence Collier's Magazine!
The Afroman Trial.
-Cops raid Afromans house for bullshit reasons.
-Steal money, break his door, fuck his house up.
-No criminality found whatsoever, no charges at all pressed on Afroman.
-Afroman spends the next 3 years making songs that make fun of all the officers involved by name, even using footage of the raid from his own CCTV cameras.
-Songs had titles like "Randy Walters is a son of a bitch" and "Lick Em Low Lisa" accusing one of the officers of being a lesbian and sleeping with the other officers wives.
-During the raid one officer looked like he was about to eat some lemon pound cake sitting on Afromans counter, Afroman made a whole album calling the officer fat.
-The cops get mad and file a lawsuit for defamation.
-Afroman turns up to court in a whole American flag suit.
-Officers performatively mald and cry while listening to the songs really trying to oversell how badly the songs upset them.
-One officer was suing because Afroman made a whole song about him saying he was fucking the officers wife. When the officer was asked if Afroman was really fucking his wife, he said "I don't know". Nuking his own case and establishing that there is a non-zero chance that Afroman might actually be fucking his wife.
-As his only witness for the trial, Afroman brought a deputies EX FUCKING WIFE.
-The jury ruled completely in favour of Afroman.
This entire thing has been a great win for free speech and absolutely fucking hilarious.
If you build the surveillance state, you eventually live in it.
The members of Congress who are crying that they were spied on did this to themselves.
End the Patriot Act. End FISA.

Discord will soon be expanding teen safety protections worldwide including teen-by-default settings and age assurance designed to create safer experiences for teens.
We’re also launching recruitment for Discord's first Teen Council, creating a space for teen voices to help shape our safety and wellbeing work. Applications are now open for US teens ages 13–17.

This is being sold as “teen safety,” but defaulting everyone into a 13–17 bucket unless they hand over an ID or face scan is wild but expected behavior by Discord. That’s not safety by design, that’s verification by coercion. It fits perfectly with the broader trend we’ve been watching for a while now, age gating, digital ID, and forced identity checks, all wrapped in the same “think of the children” packaging. If this were actually about safety, Discord would focus on moderation tools, reporting workflows, and server-level controls, not mass identity verification tied to biometric data.
What really bothers me is how normalized this is becoming. Platforms keep inching the line forward, and users are expected to just accept it because “that’s the way it is now.” It doesn’t have to be. If people don’t push back, stop using the platform, or move to alternatives, this becomes the blueprint for everything else online. Privacy and anonymity don’t disappear overnight, they get chipped away one “reasonable” policy at a time. Not to mention the multiple massive data breaches that Discord has experienced over the past several months and I'm just expected to trust their verification system blindly with my data, yeah not happening. This is one of those moments where people should actually stop, think, and decide whether convenience is worth giving up control over who you are online.
I understand why people voted for Trump in 2024. The promises were clear and appealing.
What matters now is reality. DOGE fizzled. Wars continue. The Fed remains. The Epstein files are still guarded.
At some point, loyalty has to give way to honesty.
