@Legal_Eagle_52 @KellyClinger We should not be forced into a game that we should not and do want have to play.

@KellyClinger This would only happen if closed your accounts. If you paid them off and kept the account your score would have increased. You need to learn the credit score game.

Can we start a movement to end the use of credit scores? I paid my credit cards off & my score dropped by over 200 points. Which means I have no debt but because my credit score is in the toilet I can’t qualify for anything. Credit scores are a joke. Oh & one of the credit cards I paid off kept increasing their interest rate. When I paid it off the interest rate was 44%. That should be ILLEGAL. Why is America so dang backwards??

@phresh_arrow Streaming platforms and fees.

Things that we’ve normalized that feel like robbery: Ticketmaster Fees 4pm Check-In 11am Check-Out Paying for Hospital Parking $40+ Hotel Parking $10 Mocktails $8 Coffee $5 Greeting Cards $5 Bottled Water $100 Bottles at the Club $20 Tequila Shots Tipping on To Go Orders Astronomical Student Loan Interest $2000 Daycare $45 For A Seat on an Airplane $75 For a Checked Bag Insurance WiFi What did I forget?

@Stallion2011 @Betsycashmoney When I paid for six different streaming platforms I should not have to have an antenna but it's looking like they're so screwed up that I may just dump all of them and use an antenna only approach.

@Betsycashmoney No, you're not understanding correctly. 99+% of the city can watch the game with a simple antenna.

So just to clarify... this is the first Game 7 the Pistons have played in over 20yrs, and most of the city can't even watch the game because the channel is blacked out on Xfinity due to a carrier dispute?!?! Am I understanding this correctly?!?

Streaming is one of the many rip-offs of our time. Pistons are on FUBO, Spectrum cable, Direct TV, YouTube TV, and ABC antenna OTA. Im so tired of the nickle and diming, and trying to figure out what platform I bookmarked a certain movie. Amazon Prime is the worst. Subtitles didnt match the audio (like 10 seconds off). Garbage service.

@jeffgerard @Smil3yAngel Hey don't call @cow stupid...

@Smil3yAngel Right? That stupid cow started this mess! 😁

I liked one animal tweet and my entire timeline is now all animal tweets. And I'm crying laughing 😭🤣 Twitter has become fun again 🙌❤️

@KnicksCentral Fabulous.

Hey Pistons fans, how are you doing?

@ThrillaRilla369 You have to establish a proven pattern that you are fiscally responsible. My friend had no credit rating and just used cash

My credit score dropped when I paid off my car and student loans. Credit agencies said I should get more loans to increase my credit score. The system punishes you for not owing them money. They want you to be in debt. Credit scoring is a scam.

@Microsoft updated my home edition of Outlook 365. Installed the stripped down new version on my laptop. Hour on the phone with Microsoft and every time the rep toggled the button off to return to the Classic version, a pop-up survey appeared with two buttons at the bottom - Skip and submit. The @ Microsoft rep had to put something in the form to skip it. EVERY TINE. People have lost their minds and have no idea what they're doing anymore. So many ads pop ups and demands for just another couple of cents have totally ruined business.

Got an IRS notice in the mail. Says I owe a penalty for a form I e-filed already. > AI bot picks up phone > IRS: "Here are three options, which one do you want?" > Me: "None, can I talk to a person" > IRS: "Thank you for calling the IRS, goodbye" Hangs up. Absolutely insane.

@HankVenture5 @Xfinity Everything is like this now no one knows what they're doing except how to extract money from the consumer. They don't care anymore.

So I got fiber internet hooked up on Monday. Completely blown away with it. No longer need my @Xfinity service, because the fiber is much faster and is less expensive (I got a static IP address as well which is amazing). Call to disconnect service on Tuesday (24 hours after verifying that the new stuff is working great). Get an agent at a call center probably in India. Fifteen mins of back and forth getting him to agree to cancel... I mean, this should have been easy, I don't even rent any equipment from them. Says it's canceled will see a final invoice for $5 for the pro-rated part of the billing cycle. Get an email today that there's a $115 bill due later in May for the current period. Hmmmm.... Log into Xfinity app... sure doesn't look canceled. Call in again, get a different call center agent in the 3rd world. INSISTS on going through the entire disconnect questionnaire again. No. Just no. Get frustrated, hang up on the 3rd world idiot, drive 20 mins over to the local Xfinity retail store, where Americans are. They explain the guy dated the service disconnect to the end of the billing cycle instead of when I called, probably to "help his metrics" and they have it all taken care if in a few minutes. What I want to know now is when big corporations like Xfinity eventually outsource these call center jobs to AI is the AI also going to be incentivized to lie to customers in order to extract more money from their bank accounts? The executives who create these policies that make it hard for you to turn a service off know what they are doing.

@galeriarodrigo @rushicrypto Truth.

@rushicrypto I’ve been through a lot of recessions… This is a depression. All the numbers are rigged.

As someone who was an adult during the 2008 recession, why haven't we called this a recession yet?

No. He was ruthless and anti-union. He was good for the company but not the people. According to GROK, he had a Sociology Department: To receive the full $5 daily wage, workers had to meet standards set by Ford's "Sociology Department," which inspected their homes and personal lives to ensure they were "worthy" (e.g., avoiding alcohol, gambling, or keeping a clean home).

@OrevaZSN That was the genius of Henry Ford. Selfishly (but what actually benefited workers), he raised the wages of his workers so that they were actually able to buy his cars We need more Henry Ford types

I do not understand what billionaires think the final outcome of all this is. If nobody has a living wage, they cannot buy your products, pay for your services, or rent the properties being owned and hoarded. At that point, does the whole thing not just collapse?

@MarkMaurer76325 @getcloserhome Why do they lose money?

@getcloserhome Do you realize most insurers lose money writing car insurance in Michigan? Please educate yourself before making ridiculous posts like this

The INSURANCE INDUSTRY IN MICHIGAN HAS been screwing over the working class for DECADES...in collusion with BOTH parties.

@oxfordmarlboro @horsetwting I was thinking of something clever to say along the line of horses wearing shoes but you beat me to it so beautifully I'm just going to leave it to you.

@horsetwting Why don't you take your shoes off and relax? Oh wait, you can't

fuck you

@Ryan2011Angela @LongTimeHistory @ICEgov @DHSgov @SenateGOP This is illegal.

@LongTimeHistory @ICEgov @DHSgov @SenateGOP are deporting 10 year olds without their parents to a country they’ve never been to, alone. This is who we are now. Deporting children. Alone. To a third country. No wonder the world hates us.

ICE take 10 year old boy to court to deport him—all alone without even a lawyer. He urinated on himself and wet all his clothing—no one offered him a change for many hours. "I was scared because it was my first time in court," he said. Separated from his mom for 4 months now after she was detained during a traffic stop. Wilfredo and his mother are originally from Venezuela with a pending asylum case. ICE is now trying to deport him alone without legal representation to Ecuador—a country he's never been to and does not know a single person. He is temporarily staying with his mom's former boss in Houston, Texas.

@HodlFlorida @Astropin No age limits. If you're old enough to fight for this country you're old enough to vote. Elder voters have a lot of experience and depth.

@Astropin Fine 75 🫱🏼‍🫲🏽

You should not be able to vote if you’re: - under 25 - over 65 - a billionaire - homeless - on welfare - take more in from taxes than they pay in taxes - plus all the other ones we already have in place 🤷🏻‍♂️ yay or nay?

@HodlFlorida This has got to be the worst post I have seen on X.

@jimstewartson We really want to believe this was poorly staged, rather than the SS was THAT incompetent.

As I was saying, watch the guy in the middle against the wall. He gets shot by the cop in the lower left firing at the suspect. He drops right after the first muzzle flash.

@miles_commodore Spot on.

I might be in the minority on this, but I think Tim Conway was one of funniest entertainers ever.

@Angell_Katz @KurtSupeCPA The problem with older workers is that our Healthcare is 3 to 5 times more expensive than a younger employees. Taxes and insurance account to 50% of GROSS income. Not sustainable.

@KurtSupeCPA Stop ageism in most i industries and people will work longer. It is hard for most to find a decent job and even harder if your over 50.
