Iraqi footballer Aymen Hussein issued a statement after being detained and questioned for seven hours upon entering the United States:

“If America is so hostile towards foreign nationals, why is it hosting the #2026WorldCup?”

Her Amazon orders were 18% more expensive than her sisters for the exact same products.

They lived in the same city. Had Prime accounts on the same plan. Were buying the same brands. Often within hours of each other.

Yet every single time they compared receipts, her totals were higher.

A laundry detergent her sister bought for $14.99 cost her $17.49. A pair of headphones her sister got for $79 cost her $94. A printer ink cartridge her sister paid $32 for showed up in her cart at $39.

She thought maybe she was looking on the wrong day.

Then a friend who used to work in Amazon's pricing team explained the truth over dinner.

"Amazon doesn't have one price. They have millions of prices, one for every customer. The price you see is calibrated specifically for you, based on what Amazon has learned about your behavior. Your sister is paying less because Amazon has decided she'll only buy at lower prices. You've shown them you'll pay more."

She asked how that was even legal.
He smiled.

"It's not just legal. It's the entire business model. Most shoppers have no idea this is happening and Amazon would prefer to keep it that way."

Here's everything he explained over the next 30 minutes. 🧵

The reality of these AI datacenters just keeps getting worse. Within 5 years, they will consume more electricity than all but 6 countries ( a quadrillion watts) and produce 440M tons of CO2.

they've built concentration camps and i'm expected to act like it's a mere difference of political opinion

@AesPolitics1 @Lee_in_Iowa It's the look of a failed human.

The Iran conflict has now cost America 100 billion dollars.

That’s more than the cost of tuition free college.

That’s more than the cost of free school lunches.

That’s more than the cost of sending every family a $700 dollar check.

Well, it looks like Russia has suffered yet another (entirely predictable) foreign policy defeat.

🇦🇲 Armenia appears to have voted today to leave the Kremlin's sphere of influence and move closer to the free world.

Once again, Russia's invasion of Ukraine has proven to be the beginning of the countdown to the final collapse of the Russian Empire.

The continued stupidity and brutally self-destructive mistakes of this KGB clique across the region will drive the remaining nails into the coffin, and 🇺🇦Ukraine will be sure to finish the job with a shovel.

James Carville: “The more I think about the Graham Platner thing, the more I see he has value. Graham Platner had four combat deployments. We have to assume that has had some residual effect on him. You know what those four wars have in common? Susan Collins voted for all four”

Massive droughts have hit 63% of the U.S. after data centers used over 1 trillion liters of water in North America last year.

Water levels in major waterways are getting dangerously low.

Lo de Mamdani es muy gracioso porque uno creería que su exito en New York es porque el man tiene un plan de gobierno complejo y estructurado

Pero revisas sus políticas y simplemente esta haciendo las cosas mas obvias para solucionar los problemas de la ciudad, y funciona

Today is the anniversary of the Israeli attack on the USS Liberty, 59 years ago. The crime was covered up by Zionist agents in the US government.

@cwebbonline It's Democratic Derangement Syndrome. Why they expect or even anticipate a D+50 state to elect Republicans is an intellectual deception.
