desperately need to understand the thought process of someone who wakes up and decides ‘yes, today i will purchase the ghost of air travel disappointment past for one hundred actual dollars’
Two metal baggage sizers from the defunct Lynx Air airline, featuring bilingual English and French text. Each sizer has two measuring slots: a smaller one labeled “Personal item” (6” x 13” x 17”) and a larger one for “Carry-on bag” (9” x 15.75” x 21.5”). The white signs display red luggage icons and blue paw print decorations. The units are being sold for $100 by the Time Air Historical Society and are listed as “Nearby.” The sizers appear used but in good condition, with metal construction and red accent panels.

These types of coordinated misinformation campaigns target multiple Canadian political figures, with both Jagmeet Singh and Pierre Poilievre being frequent subjects. The deceptive content follows similar patterns: Common Tactics Fake "hot mic" scandals suggesting career-ending gaffes Manipulated screenshots of trusted news sources like CBC and CTV Sensationalized headlines about imminent political downfall Suspicious URLs masquerading as news sites Use of dramatic imagery like car crashes or police incidents Motivations Behind Targeting Both Leaders Both represent opposing political ideologies, making them valuable targets for different groups Their strong social media presence makes their supporters more likely to encounter and share content Their polarizing positions on key issues make inflammatory content about them more likely to spread Both leaders appeal to younger voters who are active on social platforms Financial Exploitation Scammers leverage political controversy to drive clicks Cryptocurrency and investment scams hide behind political "revelations" Multiple domain names and redirect chains make tracking sources difficult The targeting of both leaders from opposite ends of the political spectrum suggests these campaigns are less about genuine political discourse and more about exploiting political divisions for financial gain or sowing general discord in Canadian democracy.

ebay listing: mystery packs of hockey cards, potentially containing valuable chase young guns (4 with a ~ $580 value)

price: $45 per pack, 10 packs total.

my wallet: absolutely not.

my brain: what if we became the ultimate mystery pack vigilante? what if we exposed the truth?

probably a long shot but does anyone have a league on getting a diablos rojos del mexico jersey like this outside of mexico itself?
A baseball-style jersey in a soft peach/cream color with “diablos” written across the chest in retro-style turquoise blue lettering. The jersey features a button-up front, short sleeves with turquoise trim, and is worn by a model with a matching turquoise and cream baseball cap. The model is wearing the jersey over a white t-shirt and blue jeans.

pro tip to people new here from twitter: when you join a new platform, remember your first post is basically your digital first impression - so make it weird enough to intrigue but not so wild your future employer does a restraining order research

it's truly wild how some of the world's largest companies started off completely different from where they are now..

netflix was a video rental company.
amazon used to be an online book store.
wwe even got their start with professional wrestling.

have a feeling that 58 year old mike tyson would have been better utilized at bloodsport.

Always repeating it for the new folks coming in. BlueSky has ROBUST blocking tools and block lists that make it real easy to cut off bad actors at the knees. We don't need to let the trolls rule the bridge this time.

loved watching dungeon wrestling on sunday featuring rohan raja, aurora teves, ava lawless, mo jabari, “dynamite kid” tommy billington, harlon abbott, chris masters and raj dhesi (fka jinder mahal).

this #canadiens and #sabres game has had a ton of scoring. feels like the first goalie to make a big save is going to win this game for their team. #nhl #hockey
