It’s in my DNA to die at 20 in a field in Europe, but I’ll have to settle for getting run over by a Musk cybertank piloted by a kid who was one boob touch away from being normal in an Ohio field at 50 during the dumbest civil war in history. All because I thought minorities/gays were human.

“The guy we all voted for is gonna make it so we have to take even more of your money. This is really heartbreaking for us”

ICE activity in Chicago is causing tenants to miss work out of fear and fall behind on rent, while maintenance workers avoid job sites, leading property owners and managers to worry they'll be forced to pass the costs on to tenants.

ICE activity putting stress on Chicago's building managers, who warn rents could rise

Frightened by federal agents, some tenants can't pay rent on time after missing work, while maintenance staff aren't showing up to job sites. Property owners and managers worry continued ICE activity will force them to pass costs to tenants.

Could be that the Trump National Sales Tax is making us all poorer?

Orrrrrr that we can all see an AI bubble about to burst and poor widdle siwicon vawwey needums money.

For years, one of the best-known recession indicators has been the “lipstick index,” which posits that Americans stock up on cheaper feel-good makeup when times are tough.

That one might be outdated — or at least different now.

Recession warning signs to watch: Goodbye lipstick, hello Hamburger Helper

Recession indicators have been satirized online. Here are actual recession warning signs to look out for.

I’m normally pretty anti-geriatrics in the government but Moulton sucks. He’s probably Gen X. Our whole roster sucks shit.

I mean, the guy we elected seems barely more “there” cognitively (the forever 1987) and is almost certainly at equal risk of just keeling over.

Not a lot of great options in an oligarchical gerontocracy.

I remember Dennis Miller (pre-2001) making a joke about this and at least they’re trying to make money since they can’t do anything important with it? Maybe we won’t have to bail them out?

Talking Heads is one of a handful of acts my wife and I agree on. It is a weird venn diagram.

Were you raised around a little money? Your understanding of this club mentality seems more advanced (really just more intuitive) than me and the other middle class people I hang around. Of course, it could also be that you are just smarter than me. I should probably consider that, lol

This post reminded me of the supposed pee tape. Thank you for that.

I looked at it and thought that’s probably what it ought to look like without whatever he had done in the 80s. We need a bald or closely shaved president; it’s been a while since Ike

They’ve given Bono whatever he wants whenever he wants it, he said “Okay I will stop shooting babies for a few days” and we are all supposed to think this is peace!?

Former Presidents Biden and Clinton praised President Trump today for the Gaza peace deal.

Biden said he commends Trump and his team, and Clinton said they "deserve great credit."

Kayfabe is the only thing that makes sense to me.

onion person @junlper.beer · 2d

it will always baffle me how democrats will cede all narratives to the far right on topics like immigration, whenever the right gets in office public opinion slides against them on this issue and you’ll see your average american protesting against ICE. dems need to stop ceding ground

Have any of you gone Halloween candy shopping this year yet? Numbers of kids better be down or get ready to be done after a half hour.

figures i saw suggest we are currently eating about 40% of the costs of these tariffs at the consumer level. as inventories turn over in the coming months projections are to look for more like 60%+. shit is expensive already!!

Trump is trying to kill 450,000 Michiganders after we put him in office!?

Jeez that would be like doing contract work for him a second time after he didn’t pay the first time (or gave you a race horse?)
