@Jeremybtc I wouldn’t doubt that it’s still rigged. Never trust any contest or raffle.

For 12 years, every major winner of McDonald's Monopoly was a fraud. The game was rigged by the one man hired to prevent rigging. > McDonald's Monopoly launched in 1987. > Peel a game piece off your fries or drink. Match the right properties. Win up to $1 million. > The promotion was massive. Tens of MILLIONS of game boards distributed in magazines alone. > McDonald's poured massive marketing behind it. > By law, McDonald's couldn't run its own contest. > A third party company called Simon Marketing handled the game pieces. > The man in charge of security at Simon Marketing was Jerome P. Jacobson. > Former cop. Everyone called him Uncle Jerry. > His job was to make sure nobody stole the winning pieces. > He stole the winning pieces. > Starting in 1989, Jacobson figured out how to swap the high value game pieces during transit. > He would duck into an airport bathroom stall, break the tamper proof seal on the case, pocket the winners, and reseal it. > He got away with it because a supplier accidentally sent him a sheet of the tamper proof seals directly. > That mistake gave him 12 years. > At first he gave the pieces to friends and family. His step brother. His nephew. People he trusted. > Then it grew. > Jacobson started selling winning pieces to strangers for a cut of the prize. > His network eventually included mobsters, strip club owners and a members of the Colombo crime family. > One family connected to Jacobson's network claimed three separate $1 million prizes plus a Dodge Viper. > Jacobson apparently even anonymously mailed a $1 million winning piece to St. Jude Children's Hospital. > McDonald's honoured it and paid out the full amount over 20 years. > The total stolen was over $24 MILLION in cash and prizes across 12 years. > In 2000, the FBI got an anonymous tip about a man called "Uncle Jerry" rigging the contest. > They looked at the winner list. Almost every major winner lived within 25 miles of Jacobson's house. > The FBI convinced McDonald's to run the contest one more time. Wiretapped Jacobson's phone. > Intercepted the name of the next $1 million winner before he even claimed it. > Then they posed as a McDonald's film crew and interviewed the fake winner on camera. Let him tell his entire made up story about how he found the piece. > Three weeks later, Jacobson was arrested in an early morning raid. > The trial began September 10, 2001. The next day was 9/11. > One of the biggest corporate fraud cases in fast food history got buried under the biggest news story of the century. > Over 50 people convicted. Jacobson got 37 months. He was the only one who served more than a year. > Every time you peeled a game piece off your fries and lost, the fix was already in. The winning pieces were in Uncle Jerry's pocket before the food hit the tray.

@eval_hub Friend got stop-lossed into Iraq after his discharge. I never made that mistake. Government doesn’t care about its soldiers or workers.

He thought his military service was over, but the government disagrees. 😳

@VitoComedy “I’m trying to justify why I stole the movie so that I don’t feel bad.” Give us a real excuse that’s not lame. 😒

It is absolutely disgusting that Paramount / Nickelodeon tossed the original voice actors aside, and is now forcing them to run social media promos to try and save this disastrous new Avatar film. If you don't want fans to watch the leaked film then commit to hiring the original actors to redub it.

@Chuwenjie Thank you for your work. I’m still waiting for the release. So sad to see so many on X trying to justify stealing. RIP society.

In light of the Avatar leaks, I wanted to share a list of our visual development artists. There is so much amazing work we did on the film that we are not allowed to share right now, and it’s thanks to these people that the movie looks the way it does. Thread below ⬇️

@mean_platypus @Vinceakoko @xeviuniverse Victimless? Who told you that nonsense? There’s always a cost to someone. Less movie sales and less subscribers means less revenue. Avatar drew in less revenue. Stockholders determine which sequels get made according to past revenue. Nothing else matters. Avatar is done.

How the Avatar The Last Airbender Movie Got Leaked

@aptpanic1 @xeviuniverse I did not watch it. You like questions so here’s some: Do you own the video? Is it illegal to download and watch videos without permission? Why do you think that is? Do you think they’ll make more Avatar stuff now since all their work was stolen?

@NachoFoot @xeviuniverse It’s not that. Did you not watch the video at all? It’s the fact that we wanted it in theaters and instead we get it on paramount plus!? That makes the whole effort being put into the movie feel like a waste. That and the racism towards the recast of the voice actors.

@waste_water55 @conspiracyb0t How much do they pay you to be a shill?

@conspiracyb0t Jeff Yass must have approved this message

Thomas Massie just declared: “This government is under siege.” And he exposed Susie Wiles and Pam Bondi for taking “millions of dollars from Bayer.” “All three branches of this government are under siege by lobbyists and lawyers from a German company named Bayer.” “They spent over $9 million lobbying … so that they don’t have to be liable for any damages their herbicide Roundup causes.” “The Constitution guarantees people a trial if they’ve been harmed.” “Why are we contemplating going against the Constitution?” “The Attorney General has opined favorably for this German company in front of the Supreme Court about getting rid of any liability that they should have for any damages.” “By the way, the President’s Chief of Staff and the President’s Attorney General worked for one of the biggest lobbying firms that’s received millions of dollars from Bayer.” “Maybe that’s why we’ve seen an executive order that says that the production of this chemical from this German company is a national defense priority.” “And we know why they’re doing that.” “It’s to keep them from having any liability.” “This is wrong.” “We shouldn’t succumb to the lobbyists, not in the executive branch, not in the judicial branch, and certainly not here in Congress.”

@sonblazey @SWorld8619 @Notwokenow In some cases, it’s not about learning. It’s about keeping the rest of society safe and worry-free.

@SWorld8619 @Notwokenow So you think slapping cuffs and criminals and learning nothing from their extensive crime history is the ideal way to go? Look inward before you use that word 😂😂😂

Mary Josephine Bailey, an 81-year-old grandmother and Arizona resident, was sentenced to life in prison in July 2024 for the 1985 jealousy fueled murder of Yvonne Menke in Wisconsin. The case was considered a cold case for nearly 38 years until investigators reopened it in 2021, leading to her arrest in November 2023 She was free for almost 40 years after the crime. Seems like she did get away with it, to me.

@PiratElectric @BostonConnr Mike Trout (#27 Angels) grabbed and held Lopez from doing any additional damage. Trout is huge and there’s a definite size difference. He’s lucky Trout didn’t have other intentions.

@BostonConnr As a Braves fan, I approve this. If it was the other way around, I would condemn it, but here we are.

The baseball punch is revolutionary for Baseball brawls You get hit clean with a stone like that it will put you down Lopez just changed the game

@mmc3039 @doug07leos @NUCLRGOLF I would drive through the local HOA if I wanted to see manicured lawns grow…

@doug07leos @NUCLRGOLF To see the course and all its beauty. And too see them practice!

What’s your move in this case? 🌺🎟️

@Chienlady61 @wideawake_media An insider like who? Laura Loomer? Is THAT your pick for an insider, too??? Look at her. We’re going to lose these midterms badly and all because Trump wants to fight his own party.

@wideawake_media Marjorie Taylor Greene is pissed DJT didn’t elevate her as an insider. She is being ridiculous!

MTG on Donald Trump: "I was called a traitor by a man that I fought for... six years for." "He called me a traitor for standing with [victims of Jeffrey Epstein]." "Let me tell you what a traitor is. A traitor is an American that serves foreign countries." "A patriot is an American that serves the United States of America and Americans like the women standing behind me."

Calls grow to bar foreign nationals from seeking office in the U.S., with one argument put this way: “Americans are not running for office in India, China, or Somalia. Why are we letting them come over here and run for office?”

@GreenTextRepost Fake. No one’s letting a minimum wage driver go over asking for a tip.

Anon submission

@nitut1 @BraedenSorbo No. Stop stealing our money. Go back and work in your own country.

@BraedenSorbo It’s only gonna create more joblessness in America because they own so much real estate property and investments that America’s economy will collapse

Indians are being left in India after their H1B's are getting denied. Best news I've heard all day

@Ruleof2Review Unless it’s an official remake of Star Wars Galaxies

There was a time 2-3 years ago where a game world of this size would’ve gotten me so excited. Cut to today and I just don’t have the time or interest to play games of this scale anymore. I don’t want 1,000 side quests. I’m 45 trying to balance work, life, and hobbies. I’m good.

@coolcarolinian @RealSpitfire LL has something wrong with her. The way she accuses everyone and acts unhinged should remind you of someone high in politics.

This chick is nuts. She is mentally ill. She is her own worst enemy. She should be kept far away from Trump.

@silvopasturist @Kulpable2 @6Shittalkerffs Bwahaha. I love how you triggered the Petaphiles.

@Kulpable2 @6Shittalkerffs Yes. Shooting a good dog makes the next cow much easier imo

Sooooo The rest of the story I cried all night after I posted this. Not a sound financial decision.. but I went Back to the sale barn and got her back. Today at 1530 she gave birth to a fancy F1 heifer. Her 12th calf. The Kid watched it be born. If she grows up with Momma’s attitude she will ne a keeper. 421 isn’t just a cow.

@margaretmelonii Kingdom Come 2 is on Game Pass right now. A bit more cutscenes than the original but they ramped up faith themes quite a bit.

- Tenho um pouco de tempo livre e resolvo jogar algum jogo mais leve, que não exija tanto da mente. Spider-Man 2 parece ser uma boa. - Começo a jogar. Vou fazer algumas missões e: 1 - Uma delas é jogar com uma surda. Para ficar "mais imersivo", não tem áudio, justamente porque ela é surda. Enquanto isso, você persegue algum pixador sem talento até encontrá-lo e tentar animá-lo, dizendo que ele tem talento e que, se se esforçar mais, vai conseguir alguma coisa. Chato pra caramba. Tudo isso num jogo de HOMEM-ARANHA. 2- Outra missão é ajudar um cara que pede para você dar suporte a uma apresentação que ele vai fazer para um amigo. No final, essa apresentação é, na verdade, uma declaração de amor, porque esse amigo era o namorado dele. Tudo isso num jogo de HOMEM-ARANHAAAAA.

@elonmusk @xai @barisakis H1Bs cost too much now so you have to hire Americans? ✅

Many talented people over the past few years were declined an offer or even an interview @xAI. My apologies. @BarisAkis and I are going through the company interview history and reaching back out to promising candidates.
