pretty crazy how five years ago vaccines were the most devastating thing you could ever do to your body but nowadays its fine to inject chinese peptide from Temu because you cant stop snacking after dinner
This could be serious performance art about the absurdity of the digital age coming from the first true Internet Star that's just being misunderstood because he has such an Airhead reputation. But also it might just be that it's 4am and I'm drunk
He deeply gets “for dust you are and to dust you will return”. Insane humility in rejecting the fantasy of self-preservation. The rebirth you’re looking for is in the death you’re avoiding. If you can’t risk losing it all to destruction you don’t have enough faith in creation
The company offered 10x market rate and gave farmers 5 days to respond. That tells you everything about who actually has leverage in this deal.
When a Fortune 100 company requires NDAs before revealing its own name, pressures a response in under a week, and offers $48,000 per acre for $6,000 land, they’re not being generous. They’re telling you the land is worth more than $48,000 to them and they need you to say yes before you figure out why.
Public records filled in the gap the NDAs were designed to hide. The company filed for a 2.2 gigawatt power load from the local coal plant. That’s nearly double the plant’s entire annual generation capacity. You don’t file for 2.2 gigawatts on a speculative site. That filing means engineering, permitting, and capital allocation are already committed. Which means walking away from this specific location has a cost measured in months of delay and hundreds of millions in sunk planning.
The farmer has one asset the company can’t replace: this exact parcel, in this exact grid position, near this exact power plant. There is no “find another site” when your electrical infrastructure filing is already locked to a geography.
This is why at least seven families on the same road all said no independently. The 82-year-old mother rejected $33 million. The daughter rejected $26 million. Tim Grosser rejected $10 million. A Pennsylvania farmer rejected $15.7 million and sold his development rights for under $2 million to a farmland trust, permanently removing the land from any future offer.
The internet is framing this as sentiment vs. economics. Farmers choosing “heritage” over “generational wealth.” The 5-day pressure timeline, the NDAs, and the 2.2 gigawatt filing exposed the real dynamic: the company needs the land more than the farmers need the money. Every month of delay costs the developer more than the premium they offered.
$26 million was the lowball. The farmers just didn’t flinch.
Love that the same people who put every 15-year-old on birth control now offer to sell her fertility back at $20k a cycle.
The arsonist is now selling fire extinguishers.
Truly inspiring.
Your grandma didn't need a fertility clinic.
She also didn't eat seed oils at every meal, intermittent fast everyday, sit under artificial light until midnight or or spend 10 hours a day sitting at a desk.
She wasn't stressed about her career while undereating to stay thin.
She didn't spend 10 years on birth control.
She didn't have access to fast, convenient food. Everything was prepared at home with intention.
She ate real food, slept when it was dark, and moved her body through daily life rather than 60 minutes on a Pelaton.
Modern infertility is largely a modern lifestyle problem. The solution isn't always more medicine. Sometimes it's less modernity.
It’s time for American schools to seriously start flunking students & making them redo grade levels again. You either go to summer school & work for those credits or just do the same grade over again bc you failed the basics & parents who make excuses for their kid need humbling.
