A direct assault on the middle class. Completely unacceptable.

The admin has generally been amazing to the middle class but they seem completely off the ball on this.

This is an 80/20 win if they want it. Just deny all the visas.

Xbox CEO (no experience in games) takes over, fires American workers, and then gets appointed to a Federal Reserve position. What is the administration doing here?

[Pubity @pubity]

Xbox CEO Asha Sharma is now an official advisor for the U.S. Federal Reserve.

She's leading a task force to address employment and productivity in the U.S. and will directly influence government decisions.

Christopher Nolan took 6.5 million euros in Greek taxpayer money to film The Odyssey in Greece for 15 days.

They gave him the subsidy without telling the Greek people what the movie was actually going to be. No Greek actors. Heavy distortion of one of our most important stories.

Now the world tour is skipping Greece completely.

He knows exactly what he did. He disrespected our history, took our money, and now he won’t even show his face here.

This is what happens when Hollywood gets comfortable pissing on other people’s culture.

You could buy $SPCX at $152 right now and hope it goes to the moon. 🚀

If it drops to $100, you’re down over 30%.

Or…

You could sell a $90 put for next March and collect $840 PER CONTRACT.

If $SPCX stays above $90, you keep the $840.

If it drops below $90, you buy 100 shares at $90…but after the premium, your actual cost is $81.60 per share.

That’s roughly a 46% cushion from today’s price.

One strategy is buy and hope.

The other is insurance that PAYS YOU.

That’s the power of options. 💰

This interview should be studied by future generations. It's that crazy.

2019. Colbert interviews Ellen Page.

Colbert opens by awkwardly making fun of how short Page is. Page then starts complaining that Hollywood is too binary.

Page then claims that the world will end by 2030 because of climate change and says that climate change is as real as the Jussie Smollett attack. (Ironically, she was right about that.)

Page ends with a very emotional performance, blaming Trump for the vicious, racist attack on Smollett.

Wow.

[Barberrysss @Barberrysss]

He walks through Paris with a $40 handheld scanner.

He makes $25,000 a month.

Not from crime. Not from luck.

From walls.

Every street artist who spray-paints a stencil on a mailbox, a shutter, a crumbling wall — they're creating something that will be gone in weeks. Rain, buffing crews, other artists tagging over it. Most street art has a lifespan shorter than a TikTok trend.

He found the gap.

Every morning, before the city wakes up, he walks the same 15-block loop scanning raw, high-res captures of pieces before they disappear forever. Not phone photos — actual archival-grade scans, texture and all, the kind galleries use for reproductions.

One scan takes 20 seconds. Some walls he catches hours before they're painted over for good.

Here's where the $25K comes from:

→ Limited-edition prints, numbered and dated — "captured on [date], before it was gone." $80-300 each, 40-60 sold a month.
→ Brand licensing. Companies pay $500-2,000 per image for "authentic street culture" content — and he's sitting on an archive of thousands.
→ A private collector list that pays him a monthly retainer just for first access to new scans before anyone else sees them.

The irony? The artists never asked to be famous. Most are anonymous, unpaid, gone by morning. But their work is now hanging in apartments they'll never step into — funded by a stranger with a scanner and an eye for what's about to vanish.

He's not the artist.

He's the archivist nobody hired — and the only proof some of this art ever existed.

One year in: 15,000+ pieces scanned. A six-figure business. And a city that has no idea its walls are being quietly turned into a paycheck.

🚨 PEOPLE ARE STARTING TO REALIZE WHY JOHN MCAFEE WAS KILLED — AND IT'S NOT FOR THE REASON YOU THINK

Years after his death, John McAfee's name is still generating debate online.

Not because of his software.
Not because of cryptocurrency.
Because of the things he said before he died.

McAfee spent years criticizing governments, institutions, and powerful interests.

He spoke frequently about secrecy, surveillance, freedom, and the growing power of unelected systems.

He was also one of the most outspoken public figures questioning the official narrative surrounding Jeffrey Epstein's death. He repeatedly referenced Epstein and publicly stated that if he ever died, people should not assume it was suicide.

Then, after McAfee's death in a Spanish prison in 2021, old interviews and clips began circulating all over again.

So did the controversy surrounding a viral Surfside condo tweet that spread across social media and became part of the broader McAfee rabbit hole.

Every few months, another interview resurfaces.
Another clip goes viral.
Another generation discovers the John McAfee story.
And the arguments start all over again.

What do you think really happened to John McAfee?

The US Navy operates a 50,000 acre forest in Indiana whose entire job is keeping one wooden ship from 1797 afloat.

The ship is USS Constitution, still a commissioned warship with an active-duty crew. Cannonballs bounced off her in 1812 because the hull sandwiches a wall of live oak ribs between two layers of white oak planking, nearly 2 feet of solid wood so dense it barely floats. British 18-pounders hit it and dropped into the sea. A sailor yelled "her sides are made of iron" and the nickname stuck.

Here's the problem with owning a 229-year-old wooden ship: you can't buy the parts. Hull planks run up to 40 feet long and 7 inches thick, cut from single white oak trunks. A white oak takes over a century to grow that big. No lumberyard on earth stocks it.

So the Navy grows its own. Constitution Grove at Naval Support Activity Crane holds trees over 100 years old, reserved exclusively for this ship. Foresters there are managing oaks today that will become hull planking in the 2100s. The maintenance plan literally runs on tree time.

Every 20 years or so she enters dry dock and shipwrights swap out rotted timber. After two centuries of this, estimates put original 1797 wood at maybe 10 to 15 percent of the ship. The Navy keeps replacing her plank by plank because Congress mandated her preservation and because she's the only active US warship that has sunk an enemy vessel.

Every other asset in the Navy has a decommission date. This one has a tree farm.

Mitch McConnell has been hospitalized and possibly braindead for over 3 weeks, and immediately after it happened his wife flew to China and met with their VP.

Everything is fine.

📖🤓 1876 called… and it’s dropping truth bombs.

This rescued first edition of A Popular History of the United States from Aboriginal Times to Present Day (printed for America’s 100th birthday) says:

✅ Native Americans had thriving cities.

✅ Vikings beat Columbus to the Americas by 500 years.

Mind blown yet? 👀 History hits different when you read the old books straight from the source.

What other “settled” facts do you think they’ll revise next? 🤔 (werescuebooks .com)

[Andrew Isker 🌳🪓 @BonifaceOption]

There should be dozens of movies and miniseries about George Washington.

A promethean figure. Otherworldly.

A man deserving of a new chapter in Plutarch.

You don’t appreciate George Washington enough.

John Quincy Adams, when he discovered that both his father, John Adams, and Thomas Jefferson had died on the 50th anniversary of independence on July 4, 1826, he believed it to be a palpable mark of divine grace.

“The time, the manner, the coincidence with the decease of Jefferson, are visible and palpable marks of divine favour, for which I would humble myself in grateful and silent adoration before the Ruler of the Universe—For myself all that I dare to ask is that I may live the remnant of my days in a manner worthy of him.”
