Socrates was wrong. The unexamined life is metal AF. Don't follow me unless you know me from the old days.

I don't agree with Senator Paul very much (less so his father), but he's dead on the money here.

The average age of U.S. homebuyers is now 56, up from 49 last year.

In 1981, the year trickledown economics began, it was 31.

A reminder that Peter Thiel loves a piece of Tolkien fan-fiction that paints Sauron and Mordor as the good guys because they're a "technological civilization", while the elves, hobbits and men are bad because they're all "mystical and environmental"...

Text from a 2011 article on Peter Thiel in 'Details' magazine: "A devoted J.R.R. Tolkien fan from an early age, Thiel is equally enamored with Kirill Eskov's The Last Ringbearer, a retelling of The Lord of the Rings in which Sauron is a beleaguered victim and the elves are bellicosely bent on world domination. "Gandalf's the crazy person who wants to start a war," Thiel explains, "and Mordor is this technological civilization based on reason and science. Outside of Mordor, it's all sort of mystical and environmental and nothing works. Anyway, it's really clever.""

BREAKING: Kristi Noem is now under Congressional investigation. Rep Garcia and Senator Blumenthal are demanding records from her for detaining 170 American citizens without warrants, charge, or lawyers.

Get her. 😡

Jesse Watters kept mentioning his mom during discussions about the 'No Kings' rallies. She apparently attended a No Kings event in Long Island. Some men will do anything to avoid seeing a therapist.

This isn't right. And note: when capitalism bleeds us all dry, the response is spontaneous socialism, pooling of funds.

People are using GoFundMe for groceries.

GoFundMe has 250k pages for medical bills and 40k for tuition.

Americans are fundraising for basic necessities, while the top 1% increased their wealth to $52 trillion.

This is what a rigged system designed by the wealthy looks like.

To be fair, this (minus the eagle) happened to me, but that's because five year olds are practicing a new thing that they're excited about doing as part of elementary school announcements and such.
Wish the eagle showed up though, shit would've been so cash.
