I have a reputation for being cheap, but this 15%-35% off bullshit can go fuck itself. It’s not Black Friday if it isn’t 70%-90% off or basically free (remember 1 cent printers from the 90s? I’m old). And it’s all crap no one needs. Sorry not sorry, Black Friday has been fully enshittified.

I am out during Black Friday weekend trying to get my dog groomed to look less homeless and there are so many cybertrucks out to spit on, it’s clear they’ve all been in hiding.

Not my area (again), but given the fact that a lot of people expect epis to have broad expertise in most areas, having this background is super good to know. I had no idea this was a thing that was happening in the comms space.

I like how conservatives are lecturing us all on being judicious with money during the holiday season, and it’s like bitch, I haven’t bought clothes that weren’t secondhand in YEARS. My car is old. Various other shit.

anyone who finds rfk jr. sexually appealing should be added to a publicly accessible registry
The women drawn to RFK Jr. see an intoxicating cocktail of romance and danger—whether it's getting attacked by a yak or texting about taking metaphorical bullets for each other.
But to most others, Kennedy is a reckless conspiracy theorist whose appetite for danger will result in a sicker America.

If you think ChatGPT sounds like a real human, you have definitely not talked to enough actual living humans who have jobs, kids, stress, fuckery, and zero time to ask you if you’d like them to graph the rate of water evaporation from local reservoirs per query.

Sitting here comparing careers of Emma Tucker and Bari Weiss and it’s not a comparison. Idk what kind of experience you get following Bret “genocide harder” Stephens around for years.

Good synopsis in the form of a question, revealed by a new feature that shows locations of account owners.
If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?
