Apparently a rookie on the Jets, with very little game experience, overplayed his hand & asked Devante Adams for $1,000,000 instead of accepting $17,000 for the jersey number 17

Then the natural order of things took over & he took home $0 😂😂

Today is officially War Monger Day!

Zelensky and Netanyahu in town while Lindsey Graham is celebrated.

Loomer in Ukraine wants to "kill Russians".

This is so much better than mass deportations, deep state arrests and cheap gas!

I can’t wrap my head around an economy where nursing homes cost enough to bankrupt families, yet the aides caring for our grandparents still rely on food banks. Or where daycare can consume an entire parent’s paycheck, while the people providing that care still can’t earn a living wage and need a second job. Something about that math just doesn’t add up.

A Detroit woman deposited $50 into BetMGM and turned it into $3.3 MILLION over six days. The casino paid her $100,000, congratulated her, then suspended her account and kept the rest. She spent four years fighting through every court in Michigan just to get her day in court. She still does not have the money.

– Jacqueline Davis deposited $50 into her BetMGM account on March 18 2021 and started playing a game called Luck O' the Roulette.

– Her first bet was $4.50. She lost it.

– She kept playing and over the next six days the Michigan Supreme Court later described what happened as "a heater of epic magnitude."

– As her winnings grew she pressed her bets higher.

– By March 23 she was wagering $5,000 per spin.

– Her account balance reached $3,289,500.75.

– She requested a $100,000 withdrawal.

– BetMGM approved it by email. A VIP host called to discuss transferring such a large amount off the platform. They congratulated her on her winnings.

– The next day her account was suspended for unusual activity.

– BetMGM's investigation found a software malfunction had started on her 28th play.

– Win amounts were being multiplied when transferred from the game screen to her wallet.

– They said her account should have read zero by play 368. They removed the game from Michigan entirely.

– Davis sued for fraud and breach of contract.

– The Wayne Circuit Court dismissed her case.

– The Court of Appeals upheld the dismissal. Both courts said Michigan gaming law gave the regulator exclusive jurisdiction over such disputes.

– The Michigan Gaming Control Board investigated.

– They found BetMGM had violated rules by failing to report the malfunction promptly and not cooperating fully with the investigation. Took no disciplinary action anyway.

– Davis appealed all the way to the Michigan Supreme Court.

– On July 22 2025 all seven justices ruled unanimously she has the right to take BetMGM to trial. The case was sent back to Wayne Circuit Court.

– That trial has not happened yet. It is now 2026 and she is still waiting.

– BetMGM has not commented.

A woman turned $50 into $3.3 MILLION, was congratulated by the casino's VIP team, had her account frozen the next day, lost in two courts, won at the Supreme Court, and is still waiting for a trial five years later.

I don’t want to "download the app" to pay for parking. I don’t want to "create an account" to see a menu. I don’t want to "provide feedback" on a 30-second interaction. I just want to exist in the physical world without a digital leash.

Those dogs that played poker probably just use gambling apps now and that makes me sad

I teach high school auto shop and one of the biggest problems with my graduates who want to get into the field is having the ability to purchase tools. As most of you may know, mechanics must have their own set of tools and box and that’s a rather expensive purchase. Many simply cannot afford that and end up working fast food or something like that. One of my good students recently reached out to me and asked if I had any extra tools he could buy as he got a job in a small shop and needed tools. Well me being a veteran technician had plenty of extra tools at home, so I gathered them all up and put them in a box and took them to him.. The shock and smile on that young lad’s face when I dropped that box off to his place of employment cannot be described. Of course, he asked me how much he owed me for those tools to which I replied, nothing. Good luck on your new career and thank you for being a good student in my class.

This was a military style demolition of an entire civilization so they could take the land.

If the world allows it to happen, it's a dangerous precedent for humanity on this planet & basically green lights whoever has power to do this whenever they want.

[Black Girl @t_sadiity]

yall don’t think it’s WEIRD , that CPS will potentially take your kids if you’re struggling (unable to feed them , clothe them , pay for necessary medicines , etc.) 🤔 and then once your kids are taken , they put them in a home with another family , and then give THEM money every month to take care of your kids ??

is that not a fucked up system ?!

Please God, let this happen because it would be so f*cking funny.

no data center on Earth is worth the bees, water, and trees.

[Alex Veremeyenko @alex_verem]

Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it.

Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying.

Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence."

Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter."

Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter.

They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created.

One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility."

Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies.

That's the metered intelligence business model.

And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.

Over a million acres of pristine wilderness lakes in Minnesota.

The most visited canoe country in America.

Generations of families have paddled it, fished it, camped it.

The Senate just sold it out outright.

They called it "America First."

Then handed it to a Chilean billionaire — so his company can ship the copper to China.

The Senate voted 50-49 to gut 20 years of Boundary Waters mining protections.

Here's the deal they made.

A Chilean billionaire's company digs the mine.

America can't smelt the copper — we don't have the capacity.

So the ore ships to China.

China processes it.

Sells it on the world market.

Chile keeps the profits.

Minnesotans don't even get the jobs.

Minnesota keeps the pollution.

And Americans get to buy it back from China at full market price.

This same company has a documented history at their Chilean mines: pipeline spills, regulatory fines, and locals fighting back for years.

They paid a former Trump Interior Secretary $380K.

The protection died by one vote.

Here's exactly how it happened — and who made it happen.

Who do YOU think this mine actually serves?
