we will accomplish more by observing and absorbing than we will by seeing and reacting.

“Jesus. Paul, look at this receipt—ten dollars for a single potato. This new Value-Mart AI surge pricing is killing me, man. Killing me."

“That’s nothing, Bill. Wait ’til the next update: the store will be able to see exactly how much money you have in your bank.”

“You’re kidding.”

“And your 401k.”

“@#$% me sideways.”

“That’s why I use URCHN to do my groceries.”

“Really? What’s URCHN?”

“URCHN is the latest in affordable concierge shopping.”

“Oh, you mean like Uber or Instacart. What makes them different?”

“Orphans.”

“𝑂𝑟𝑝ℎ𝑎𝑛𝑠?”

“That’s right, Bill. And not just any orphans. Dirty, starving orphans who live under overpasses.”

“Uh.”

“As you know, the cameras in the grocery aisle scan your face and adjust the price based on race, socioeconomic status, and dietary restrictions. But you know who always gets the best prices, no matter what?”

“…orphans?”

“Yep.”

“I don’t know, Paul, that seems a little-”

“Of course, the AI still discriminates based on race, which is why they send a multi-racial team of no less than four dirty orphans to buy your groceries.”

“Um.”

“The Latino child buys your wasabi, and the Asian child buys your tortillas.”

“Yeah, no, I get it.”

“And the black child-”

“Sorry, uh, these are children, right? Small children?”

“Of course. Teens would raise the price.”

“How do they, uh, reach the items on the top shelves?”

“They stand on each other’s emaciated little shoulders.”

“Jesus.”

“Yeah, the Latino orphan tends to be on the bottom.”

“What?”

“Sturdy stock.”

“…and how much do you save?”

“My last potato was 34 cents.”

“#$&@ it, I’m in.”

God told me the car was gay. I denied his truth. "It looks futuristic and cool now god, it can't be gay." Then god was quiet during a storm. And he showed me the truth

@IndianJesusOff If you pull up his X account and search visa, you'll find that he posted his permanent residence visa twice. He was very pro ICE, so it has come into question multiple times.

I wonder if they revoked his visa. Or does permanent have extra steps like check ins or something

I bought a Toyota Prius and I like driving slow. No one was mean to be in my duct tape body Altima

@EffDisInfo @erikkain When I was 7, my mom paid the $3 a minute so I could call a video game tip line and ask where to find the red cape on Legend of Zelda A Link To The Past. The guy on the phone was also very fast with his explanation. I knew it wasn't cheap so it was the greatest gift to me.

@StephenPhillip0 I'm writing Jimothy in for every vote I cast for the rest of my life.

[Cathartic Sponge @codeybrooks1]

Thank you. The honest critics that I like have all said the same line, "I have to think about it for a while" in terms of digesting it all.

I watched Inception three times in the theater because I wanted to fully understand it. The Prestige is my favorite movie in terms of writing. I couldn't watch Tenet more than once. Skipped Oppenheimer altogether. But I love when movies make you think afterward instead of in and out of your head.

@SarahKay444806 @erikkain I'm not hating. I'm talking about the 'people' who are hating on it without it being out yet. There are reasons people do things

Now I know why my cat spends most of his days next door.

[Cathartic Sponge @codeybrooks1]

Maybe I need to research how this works first

[Cathartic Sponge @codeybrooks1]

My mom bought me a bonsai tree but I live in a shed with minimal daily sunlight. Grok is pretty keen on my plan to just take the tree to work with me. I hope @grok is correct.

@AutismCapital Conversions like these are the only productive reason to have social media

@OscarTheFurry This is my favorite picture of Mishmish

@AdamKinzinger We can only count on Bill and Ted creating the most unifying song in history

@Brettdasovic Any time that I am allowed to say, "synchronize your watches" is a good day lost in time.

@Stoodoutweft Never forget the true value of Pringle. It is designed to apply flavor to your tongue as the roof of your mouth crushes it. A brief fleeting glance of flavor.

They call me a mad man for looking at which side of my chips have all the flavor. Pringles like the shape of your mouths

@KimDotcom You're never allowed to believe in anything ever again. That's the ultimate win in good versus evil and history itself.

Your cover ups cant convince me. Kermit has clearly joined the police
