🚨 Racist Karen called the cops on a Black father and his kids at a Chicago pool twice.
Even after he showed proof he belonged, she still demanded his ID.
Who brings ID to a swimming pool?
Police arrived.
The father told them he didn’t have to show her anything.
Cops agreed.
She smiled even harder when she saw his child crying.
The father still got in the pool with his boys. That’s the real win.
The “line of purples” is a group of non-spectral colors: because they are formed by a combination of fully saturated red and blue, they do not correspond to any specific wavelength — they’re a combination of long and short ones, with no middle wavelengths.

Yet here is a Flock safety camera….
This isn’t being used to read license plates. It’s being used for mass surveillance
Flock is expanding to locations where crime is more likely to occur…. In other words, mass surveillance
@tangled_com This is such clever concept. Flipping the perspective completely changes the emotional weight of a portrait - such a simple technique with dramatic visual impact. Can't wait to see everyone's entries. 💜

@tangled_com Haha I almost feel inspired to participate in this challenge as I think it would be interesting to get a nice shot of my hair!

Ok, here’s my corporate greed call-out of the day.
I was dispatched today for a no-cool call. The indoor unit was running, but the outdoor unit wasn’t.
The system was a 10-year-old Bryant Evolution high-end variable-capacity inverter system. After running the factory diagnostics, I found Code 77, indicating the inverter board was detecting excessive compressor startup current.
Following the manufacturer’s diagnostic procedure, I disconnected the compressor leads to determine whether the fault was in the compressor or the inverter board. The results confirmed the inverter board had failed. The system is only 8 months out of warranty.
At that point, I started preparing myself to tell the customer the repair would probably be around $1,500–$1,900. I figured the board would cost somewhere in the $800–$1,000 range. After all, it’s just a printed circuit board.
Before giving the estimate, I called Carrier Enterprise for pricing.
$8,900.
Not for the entire outdoor unit.
Not for a complete system.
Just the inverter board.
That’s not a typo. $8,900.
In my opinion, this is the definition of engineered obsolescence. There is no reasonable justification for a replacement circuit board on a 10-year-old residential HVAC system to cost nearly nine thousand dollars. At that price, you’re essentially forcing the homeowner to replace the entire system instead of repairing it.
This is exactly why I’ll never sell Carrier equipment. They make decent equipment, but pricing replacement parts like this turns a repairable system into a disposable one. Homeowners deserve better than that.
Carrier Carrier Enterprise or anyone that’s sells this shit, care to elaborate why this board is so expensive?

Apple got a $2.2 billion tariff refund.
Amazon got $600 million.
Trump is sending the "refunds" to the companies, not working people.
Every single cent of these refunds should go back to American consumers.
