and now with "dynamic pricing" retailers can just ignore whether you can afford things or what you do for a living, if you're privileged to work at all. welcome to life in Interesting Times™.

"YAWN" is the only correct response to Donny Depends when he posts this kind of tripe. he wants people to perceive that our knickers are in a twist over his memes - all he gets from me is boredom. juxtaposing his actions with his social media only serves to amplify his nonsense.

i did a similar experiment on FB back in 2020 - deleted all my "interests" and followed pages. almost immediately, my feed was full of straight up right wing creeps and scams. big tech clearly and desperately wants fascism, or at absolute minimum is willfully indifferent to being used to foster it.

somebody older wasn't available?

suggestion to the media (the non state-controlled bits, anyway): stop attending the WH press briefings. just quit. it's all theatre, and there's no reason to provide them with any more megaphone than what Fox (and far, far worse) are giving them anyway. starve these clowns of attention.

this simulation of reality is incredibly stupid and i want my goddamn money back

why stop with Hegseth? Gabbard is by far the more egregious participant given her role. the only one truly concerned about OPSEC on that chat was Goldberg, FFS.

super special middle finger kudos to CNBC for soft peddling this deliberately driven plunge in value by calling it a 'correction'

now Donnie Two Scoops can go after his preferred deal he thinks he brokered with Putin. next stop: Moldova and the Baltic States. this truly is the darkest timeline.

...unless Daddy Vlad made Donny Two Scoops a secret side deal if the new USSR gets to keep it (which he'll renege on the first chance he gets, of course).
any deal for mineral rights goes through Ukraine. otherwise it's just theft.
