I was playing Fortnite back when it was still fight zombies and build stuff to keep the zombies out. There wasn’t even any multiplayer lol.

Anyway fuck Fortnite.

Breaking: The Trump administration announces that they will not be complying with today’s deadline to release the full Epstein Files.

They insist the files will be released in the next “couple weeks.”

Between this and the hundreds of thousands of layoffs in sectors like… oh, say, the tech industry? At some point, someone’s going to have to admit we’re in a recession, even if they stop reporting numbers and keep inflating the AI bubble.

Just to recap:

The TikTok ban? Bad.
The SCOTUS ruling upholding the TikTok ban? Also bad.
Trump choosing not to enforce the ban? More bad.
The Trump-backed mostly-US consortium taking over US Tiktok? You guessed it...bad.

New math just dropped!

But this actually makes sense! Hear me out:
It started at $100, and then went down to $13. But what is 13? A 1 and a 3. And what is 1 and 3? 4 of course! 3, 4, knock on the door, 5, 6, pick up sticks. A stick is 1, so sticks is 11.

(13 * 4 * 11) + (13 + 4 + 11) = 600!

QED!🤡
FOX: If you cut something by 100%, the cost goes down to 0. If you cut it by 600%, the drug companies are actually paying you

LUTNICK: What he's saying is if a drug was $100 and you bring it down to $13, it's down 7 times

F: Not a 600% cut

L: But it's 700% higher price before. It's down 700% now

They say they’re protecting kids. They’re not. They’re harming these kids by blocking their access to health care.

These comments make clear what this is about: Eliminating *all* trans people of all ages.

If they get away with it with trans people, they’re coming for you next.

It wasn't just that game console sales were collectively down in the U.S. in November

It's that all three console makers dropped.

China has secretly built a crude but working EUV prototype using ex-ASML engineers, years ahead of expectations.

It’s part of a “Manhattan Project”-scale push to kick the U.S. out of its chip supply chain and achieve full semiconductor independence by 2030. This would end Nvidia/TSMC/ASML dominance

Between 2005 and 2025, China doubled its crude oil consumption, driving most of the world's increase in demand. But their shift to EVs is happening faster than anyone (except them) thought possible.

2024 was their peak car fuel year. Now they use less and less. ♥️🌍♻️

Which means they import less.

Everyone knows about Ahmed al-Ahmad, the Syrian Muslim migrant who took down one gunman. Another man, a Middle Eastern refugee, ran into a firefight and kicked the gun away from the other gunman. Police shot him, and bystanders kicked him in the head while he was down, thinking he was the terrorist.

The Trump Admin wants to turn the clock back to 2008 and let Wall Street run wild.

We all know how that ended – with taxpayers bailing out Wall Street while millions lost their homes and got fired from their jobs.

Donald Trump could be setting the stage for the next crash.
