there are so many artists, writers, and creatives that i want to support, but i just don’t have the money… hate not being mega-rich

[Fuck You I Quit @fuckyouiquit]

18 months. $5 trillion fucking dollars in 18 months. And we still don't have healthcare. And they gutted education. And food assistance. And food safety, and clean air, and clean water. And cut 300k federal jobs. Where the actual fuck is that new spending actually going?

"a bad daughter is just an average son"

[Brandon Doyle @Brandondoyle]

This is my son. He is almost 16 and wants a vehicle. I refuse to buy him one and told him he needs to pay for it himself. He got a job as a rec basketball league referee and quickly realized how long it would take to save up enough money to get a $3k car making $12/hour. Then I showed him some cooler $6k options on Bring a Trailer and he got the itch to make more money.

I gave him countless ideas to pursue. He wasn't feeling any of them. Then I decided to show him some podcast episodes from @mhp_guy (he's listened to some from Chris before and was a fan). No ideas were really hitting home until he heard an episode between Chris and @ShannonJean about reselling. He fell in love. So I showed him a few more and he was convinced that that was the route he should take.

We started browsing B-Stock and then realized we need a state tax license and some other stuff so we got that all set up. Then we browsed some more. Endless deals. We settled on buying 115 rugs at an average of $13/rug after shipping. They're all Costco returns. Various sizes, some in better condition than others. He now has to figure out how to sell all these through my Facebook Marketplace account. I won't be helping him at all, other than answering questions and casually giving him strategic ideas here and there. If he can sell the rugs at an average price of $35 (keep in mind some are brand new and are 10' x 14' large), he'll make $2500 in profit. Then we can start car shopping :).

P.S. Chris and Shannon - thanks for the motivation!!!

So. If you are in ANY emergency situation — let’s say you park in your driveway, & only as you begin taking your groceries from the car, you see movement in your home that is supposed to be empty. And a broken window. You cannot drive away to somewhere safer to get help. Your car refuses.

You are at a traffic light. Suddenly someone is trying to get into your car (this has happened to me). You have a split second to accelerate & leave him in the dust. Your car shuts down power.

The school calls. Your daughter has fainted. You cannot drive to the school to pick her up because your car notices your eyes are wide & you’re breathing fast.

Your car now controls whether you live or die in an emergency situation. And those controls cannot be overridden.

Instead of doing their job and trying to lower people’s student debt payments or make sure scam colleges aren’t ripping off veterans and single mothers, the Dept of Education is quote tweeting us with their boss advocating for private charter schools communities don’t want. Lazy.

[Fuck You I Quit @fuckyouiquit]

A man lay dying, a CPR trained coworker asked their manager if he could help administer CPR and the manager said, “It has to be management or safety team. Please get back to work. Just turn around and not look. Let’s get back to work.” What the fuck is wrong with these people?

[Al Jazeera Breaking News @AJENews]

US Vice President JD Vance says the US would be happy to treat heavily-sanctioned Iran ‘like a normal country’ if they don’t pursue nuclear weapons. The US, which has more than 5,000 nuclear warheads, says it stopped bombing Iran anticipating the Hormuz Strait would reopen.

I’m so used to US politicians pretending to be powerless that this feels like a headline from another universe

Really good piece here on the pro-war voices in US media - often experts working in think tanks funded by arms companies or dark money

[Fuck You I Quit @fuckyouiquit]

A 2% annual tax on that wealth would cover all of what we currently spend on Medicare without anyone else paying a dime. And that wealth would still continue to grow. We can't afford not to tax them at this point.

[The Debt Collective 🟥 @StrikeDebt]

A judge just interrupted a DOJ lawyer who claimed that canceling $11 billion in student debt held by defrauded debtors would hurt taxpayers.

"When you come out and say it's $11 billion — It's like $11 billion in coupons..."

🚨 WALMART’S AI PRICE SYSTEM JUST ACTIVATED — DIGITAL PRICES CAN CHANGE IN SECONDS WHILE YOU SHOP AND A CUSTOMER CAUGHT IT ON CAMERA

America’s biggest retailers are quietly replacing paper tags with digital screens.

Prices are no longer fixed.
They can change in seconds.

• Grab it at one price
• Walk to checkout
• It’s already higher

This unlocks dynamic pricing inside stores.

• Demand spikes → price jumps
• Inventory drops → price adjusts
• Algorithms decide what you pay in real time

Not tomorrow.
Not next week.
Right now.

When prices can change in seconds… are you even buying anything anymore, or just paying whatever the system decides you owe?

[🔻Rio Slade 🔻 @RioSlade]

Americans are receiving no guidance. No updates. No news.

It's a blackout.
