The Qatar plane isn’t corruption...it’s succession planning.
Gulf states are betting on Trump as a parallel state actor, and this jet is their embassy-on-wheels.

Ayn Rand built a cult around selfishness, slapped a gold sticker on greed, & called it virtue.
Atlas Shrugged is less a novel & more a libertarian fever dream where empathy goes to die. People say they love it to sound deep...really, it’s just capitalist cosplay.
Objectivism needs to be wiped out.

The movie Armageddon isn’t dumb at all...it’s operatic. It masks raw human emotion in Bay-hem spectacle & that’s why it endures. It’s not about science, it’s about sacrifice, connection, and Americana mythmaking. It's aged better than critics & their reviews because sincerity always outlasts snark.

Trump’s tariffs aren’t just economic moves...they’re indoctrinating Americans to accept isolation as strategy. The real cost isn’t price hikes, it’s the retreat & surrender from global interdependence. The world now sees a wounded giant choosing pride over partnership. American dominance is over.

Trump’s defunding of the Dept of Education seeds a slow collapse of local talent pipelines in GOP voting counties...expect brain drain, corporate disinterest, and a future where the best jobs bypass red districts entirely.
Voting for “small gov” likely outsourced their kids’ and grandkids' futures.

In Top Gun, Maverick is reckless & selfish. He stupidly gets his best friend killed. Iceman is disciplined & strategic...a true leader. He doesn’t need to showboat...he just wins. The military doesn’t need Mavericks; it needs professionals. Ice was the hero all along & Top Gun is his redemption arc.

The White Lotus isn’t just about privilege...it’s about how wealth protects people from consequences but not from misery.
Beneath the luxury, the rich are just as lost, lonely, and morally messy as everyone else.
Power doesn’t bring wisdom, just better views and fewer repercussions.

Trumpism thrives because it taps into an ancient human longing: the desire for simplicity in a chaotic world. It reduces complexity to absolutes, offering identity, grievance, and belonging. It’s less about politics and more about tribal instinct—the oldest survival tool we have.

High school sports in the U.S. aren’t just about athletics...they reflect our cultural obsession with hierarchy, tribalism, and spectacle. They teach kids early that status is tied to performance, reinforcing the idea that winning isn’t everything, it’s the only thing.

Severance resonates because it exposes a deep fear...that the reality is we’re already severed. The show's dystopia feels too familiar...a world where our true selves are left behind at the office door, raising uncomfortable questions about identity, freedom, and the cost of productivity.

Professional sports teams don’t “belong” to cities anymore—they’re billion-dollar brands seeking tax breaks & stadium subsidies. Fans inexplicably & unabashedly worship their team, while owners & leagues treat their cities & fans like interchangeable pawns in the endless game of chasing profits.

This Trump-led federal workforce reduction isn’t just about downsizing—it is deregulation by stealth. Fewer staff means fewer environmental/financial/etc reviews, weaker enforcement, and slower services, shifting power from public oversight to private interests.. likely for generations.

It's plausible that in time, Dogecoin will be the default tipping currency on social media. It'll become the most widely used crypto in daily transactions...but still worth less than $1 because of its infinite supply. It'll function as a fun internet token rather than a serious store of value.

The worst active NBA player would absolutely dominate in a random pickup game against most NBA All-Stars who retired 5 years ago.
People underestimate how much the athleticism & conditioning of even the lowest-tier pro today exceeds that of legends who have been out of the league for a few years.

Most “disruptive” startups aren’t really innovating—they’re just bypassing regulations that established businesses have to follow, then lobbying to make those loopholes permanent.

The 8 hour workday is outdated and inherently unproductive. Most office jobs could be done in 4 focused hours, but companies cling to it to justify bloated middle management and maintain control, even at the cost of employee well-being and efficiency.

Wearable health tech like smartwatches and fitness trackers were primarily about personal wellness, but in short time they'll become required to get health/life insurance. Policy issuers will then make dynamic premium adjustments based on your daily habits...even how many cookies you ate last night.

Obama will be the last president who will ever truly represent a unified vision of America, because the political landscape has become so polarized that future leaders will be forced to cater to specific, entrenched ideologies rather than trying to bridge divides.

The meteoric rise of AI in creative industries will soon make "human-made" a luxury label. Within a decade, art, music, writing, and even coding created entirely by humans will be so rare and niche that it'll be marketed as a premium product, akin to organic produce or hand-crafted goods today.

The idea of "following your passion" as career advice has ruined more lives than it’s helped. Most passions are terrible business models, and turning them into work often kills the joy they once brought.

Most people don’t actually want equality; they want to be the ones at the top of the hierarchy. They just frame it as equality to appear virtuous while pursuing systems that still keep others beneath them.
