First class packages were the same cost nationwide, priced by oz's. The removed the single ounce price to minimum 4 oz, 8 oz, 12 oz & 16 oz. Next converted to "ground advantage" and added zone pricing. They take at least one sizable increase every year and charge extra starting in October as a holiday adjustment. Then they go right into January and raise again. Not long ago I could send a 4 oz package for $1.79 now it's around $5.50, this new fuel tax will make it almost $6.00. When the loose your package, you loose the postage and your product. Then you pay them an additional $6 to take care of the customer because you care. You can't get a refund because the paperwork is set up to make you fail, too time consuming. In the end customers will loose the freedom of ordering from anywhere else but Amazon, then Amazon buys the post office!

BREAKING: USPS will impose its first-ever surcharge on packages — an 8% fee to cover the rising cost of fuel.

@FoFtyTrader Do you have to count every other one? Looks like laser beams, not "a pbar" Epileptic!

rumor mill: 1 month ceasefire news headline spiked the markets after hours, but again pbars down low... so y'all know what that means... ... see you down there like i always do 👌

@skylerity Born naked, staying naked!

The main reason I’ve avoided getting a Cybertruck wrap is because wrapping it gives up one of its top features: the unpainted raw steel. A wrap in some ways feels like going back to painted aluminum. You can’t beat this raw metal toughness. (15 degree pressure washer nozzle btw)

@RobNeto_Author @WilliamShatner No hands, no feet. No pressure, no missed exits. Yes you can look at the views, FSD is driving.

@DonaldTCusick @WilliamShatner Gas vehicles have cruise control. I hardly touch the pedals on road trips. As for seeing the sights, FSD still requires you to keep your eyes on the road.

And for the #teslarites who don’t understand 500 miles. Time is money. How long does it take to pump a tank of gas? 4-5 mins versus 30. Early last week I went up to the Yosemite area (about 300 miles.) I got up there, did my thing and got gas (5 mins) and drove back. With a Tesla. It would be drive up (maybe on one charge) charge up 20-30 mins, do my thing. Drive back, stop along the way to recharge (again probably another 20 mins…) That’s too long. 500 would be one recharge so it’s 10 mins gas versus 29-30 mins which I would consider.🤷🏼

Ok if time is money and you are driving. When you get to your destination and your arms are tired, your neck hurts and you didn't see one single view because you had to focus on the road, the Tesla driver with FSD, is seeing the views, with a relaxing ride, not touching the petals, or hands on the wheel. Arrives rested and ready to have fun. The way home which is even more stressful becomes stress free. Worth a little extra charge time.

@WilliamShatner That's the main thing keeping me from going all electric. The range isn't sufficient to justify it yet.

@1000xStocks Remember Muddy Waters also hit $ELF too.

So who is right here? Short sellers just called $SOFI “the next Enron.” That came from Muddy Waters… claiming hidden debt and aggressive accounting. In response, Anthony Noto bought $500K of stock on the dip (28,900 shares at ~$17.32) Company says the report is misleading and may take legal action. So now you’ve got: - Muddy Waters: accounting issues, $300M+ concerns - Management: buying shares, calling it false

@DustinHuntwn Not all shorts are bad. What if you were lucky enough to have entered in the $14/$15 range and a week later you gained 50%. Might be wise and inexpensive to buy some puts to insure that large gain? Could be why the short interest went up.

$HIMS a year of shorts beating on HIMS, then we had the lawsuit where they went all in and crushed it to 14. Now, Nearly 90 million shares short! This whole time revenue has been increasing like crazy, fundamentals of the stock sound, CEO pulled an uno and fucked these leper shorts, Honestly, The floor should be 70 right now. What is the actual reason they've latched themselves like the parasites they are to HIMS. The massive volatility? Waiting for the American economy to crash? I'll revisit this post when were at 100, like I've done with so many stocks Like if you STILL believe $HIMS. And at the end you can follow me, I'll be tracking $HIMS all the way.

@ChiefEngineerCE Maybe the opposite would happen, who is flooding the ER's and getting food for free? Might be abundant food and no wait time.

What would America look like if 55 million Visas were cancelled? If 55 million visas were cancelled overnight, America would change in ways few could imagine. At first it would look chaotic. Hospitals short on nurses. Tech firms unable to staff support teams. Crops left to rot because migrant labor vanished. For a few months, the headlines would scream collapse. But then something else would happen. Wages would climb. Trades and apprenticeships would surge. Colleges that depended on foreign tuition would close, but community colleges would thrive again as Americans re-trained. Housing prices in major cities would fall for the first time in decades. Renters would finally have leverage. Families that were priced out could buy homes again. The GDP might dip at first, but the money would start circulating locally. People who thought they’d never matter in the economy would suddenly be needed again. The country would remember how to build, grow, fix, and teach without importing labor. It wouldn’t be easy, but it would be ours.

@johnrich It's not the cholesterol that's a problem it's inflammation. Most Americans have been trained to look at their cholesterol scores and not their waist line!

The brain has 25% of the body's total cholesterol. In 1987, Statins were approved to treat high cholesterol. In 1988, they lowered the acceptable cholesterol numbers. Now, over 90 Million Americans take statins, and we find out they cause dementia. Now it's time for memory drugs.

@HolySmokas Don't worry it will be 25% by Sunday night, then when the market crashes, it will be 10% on Tuesday and then 20% on Friday.

Oh come on… on a Saturday!!! I was trying to go relax in the spa 😆😂😭 buckle up

@A_d_n_R_d_i_g @SawyerMerritt Stainless is amazing, easy to keep clean and no scratches or dents (rock chips) in almost 2 years. If you don't own one you don't know what you are saying. Design is perfect. New price point is great entry level. Will sell well.

@SawyerMerritt I wish they would just scrap the program and redo the design entirely. Stainless steel was a terrible choice. It’s cool and they proved they could do it but those production lines should be making more important products.

@FoFtyTrader Does it work the same for positive pbar too? ELF has a big on from earnings day pre market. Heading back up that way.

QQQ pbar - bookmark this post, see y'all down there later

@DavidBCollum Just look at USPS price increases every year, sometimes twice a year.

Here is truflation's estimate of inflation. I spoke with a restaurant owner yesterday who said if you look at all inputs (taxes, labor, insurance, supplies and food) that inflation is easily 10% yoy. I think everything is a lie and we are living in a simulation created to support the narrative.

@MarketMovesMatt There is always one more trade, just don't use more than 2% of your portfolio/cash.

Finally, I had enough money to buy a Tesla. Until this one huge mistake. 3 months grinding: $3K → $50K. Tesla configurator open. One click away. Then a voice: "One more trade and you can get the Performance model." I closed the Tesla tab. Opened my trading app. Bet everything. Two weeks later: $12K left. No Tesla. Just regret. That was 2021. The lesson: When you hit your goal, TAKE IT. The market will always whisper "one more trade." Greed destroys more accounts than fear ever will. If you just hit your number, close the app. Don't make my mistake.

@TrevorScottReal Just had this discussion with Tesla Service today. They said may be covered by your insurance but you need to verify with the insurance company.

Wait…. So if my car with FSD gets totaled, I will basically just lose the $10,000 FSD purchase. Confused by this.

@elonmusk Ok so I used a referral code for a Tesla I am picking up today. It's 3 months free FSD. And now I have to buy FSD in one month? I will be asking for another insensitive to accept my delivery today. Plan was always to buy FSD

Tesla will stop selling FSD after Feb 14. FSD will only be available as a monthly subscription thereafter.

@congressdj This is ridiculous, it's the inverse of the Cybertruck when the interior was white and then the gray (ugly) option arrived. All the clowns came out crying. I am picking up a new MYP tomorrow and pretty happy with the current version. Not a deal breaker, it's nothing.

Meanwhile I sit crying in my MYP with its gray headliner. However, I shall use my tears to motivate me to find a way to get it.

@nicoraytruth @SawyerMerritt @Tesla @grok I live in phoenix, picking up a Performance tomorrow. Glad I am getting the old headliner. Black looks like a black whole. Lighter color great for the Sun State.

@SawyerMerritt @Tesla @grok won’t these be hot in Phoenix?

Here is the new black headliner that now comes in all new @Tesla Model Y Premium and Performance trims in the U.S.

@congressdj Move to Phoenix, all seats are heated

Why did we lose the ability to heat the rear center seat in the new Model Y Performance? Is this the case in all the junipers, or just the performance model?
