Spoke to my source familiar with internal workings at Mastercard. The holiday call campaign re payment processor censorship is working, there is a lot of pressure being felt from your calls. This is resulting in increased response times at a core moment for Mastercard due to the holiday season

The underlying cause of every bubble - debt masquerading as financial innovation - depends on not just short financial memory & speculative neophytism, but reinventing jargon of finance, like how each generation of kids has new ways to say same things.

Apparently P*ypal now asks for customer opinions on accounts sending invoices.
If you are paying an invoice to a nsfw artist, do NOT mention NSFW in any way, keep it blank even. you risk both your account and the artists.

Of course it’s airborne.
This rejection of airborne pathogens reads like reactionary, emotional objections to the concept of miasma. That because miasma said infections were airborne, and miasma was wrong, infections must definitionally be not airborne. Which is not true.

After a bird flu outbreak tore through Midwestern barns, killing millions of chickens and spiking egg prices, the federal government didn’t investigate if the virus was airborne.
So ProPublica did.

FILE THAT SHIT. ALL MY HOMIES FILE CLASS ACTION CLAIMS AGAINST THE PLAGIARISM MACHINE.
AI advocates have warned that if every author in the class action filed a claim, it would "financially ruin" the entire industry.
Authors celebrate “historic” settlement coming soon in Anthropic class action
Advocates fear such settlements will “financially ruin” the AI industry.

"what games will you play when everything uses AI?"
So there's this cool thing called playing older games, did you know we have hundreds of thousands of them?
Enough to keep someone busy for multiple lifetimes?
I'm not gonna run out anytime soon
Still hoping the AI bubble bursts though of course
