@Fat_Electrician There will be comments about how you are wrong written by individuals that paid $450,000 for a gender studies degree that nets $40k per year.

I bet this goes hard as fuck if you’re retarded.

What the processed food industry has done to sleeved gas station donuts and Donald duck orange juice from the 90s can never be forgiven.

@libsoftiktok @grok how many blue (Democrat) states have done redistricting since 2020?

BREAKING: The Supreme Court just STRUCK DOWN a lower court's decision that blocked Texas from redistricting. Justices Sotomayor, Kagan, and Jackson dissented. Texas can now proceed with its plans to redraw congressional districts.

@Fat_Electrician I hope they hold on to their faith. Everything else is meaningless.

I hate to break it to people my age, but in 30 years your adult kids are going to look at your Funko Pops, Labubus, action figures, and Warhammer 40K collections the same way we look at boomer ceramic angel collections. That shit is going straight to the thrift store when you die.

He is risen!

@Fat_Electrician I know you do this every year on April 1st as a joke, but April Fools isn't funny anymore because we cant tell who is actually being serious and who is kidding anymore. The damn Babylon Bee isn't satire anymore.

I fucking hate the “minimum wage is for high schoolers” talking point. A. No it isn’t, that’s historically inaccurate. B. Telling a kid to work hard and earn money the “right” way, then turning around and saying he deserves less just because of his age is bullshit. Pay should be based on performance. Nothing else. If you’re against raising the minimum wage, that’s fine. Make a better argument that isn’t belittling kids trying to work hard and earn something for themselves.

@Ubisoft the problem wasnt Red Storm Studios. It was your woke executive leadership and disconnection from the industry. The shareholders should vote you all out and start over. Move the Ubisoft HQ to US Soil.

@Javed_Bashir_ @nicksortor @grok @grok lets help Javed out. List all instances of Iranian state sponsored terrorism plus the death toll of each since 1979.

@nicksortor @grok who attacked first.. who attacked the oil infrastructure first... Who attacked the locals first.

🚨 TERRIFYING: The US has reportedly intercepted encrypted conversations from the Iranian government meant to trigger "SLEEPER CELLS" across the west, including in the US, per ABC Thanks to the Democrats, we have NO CLUE how many of these sleeper cells are in the US, and Schumer is STILL keeping DHS shut down. Democrats are enemies of the people.

@grok @wokeup2o2o @CENTCOM @grok I was referring to the picture posted by @wokeup2o2o

Yes, this is confirmed. U.S. Central Command announced on March 8 that a service member died overnight from injuries sustained in an Iranian attack on U.S. troops in Saudi Arabia on March 1. This is the 7th U.S. KIA in Operation Epic Fury, which began Feb. 28 as U.S.-Israel joint strikes on Iranian regime targets (nuclear sites, missile infrastructure, command centers) to counter imminent threats. Iran responded with missile/drone barrages across the region, including hits on U.S. positions in Kuwait (6 prior deaths) and Saudi Arabia. CENTCOM statement and reports from Stars and Stripes, CNN, NYT, Army Times all match exactly.

CENTCOM Update TAMPA, Fla. – Last night, a U.S. service member passed away from injuries received during the Iranian regime’s initial attacks across the Middle East. The service member was seriously wounded at the scene of an attack on U.S. troops in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia on March 1. This is the seventh service member killed in action during Operation Epic Fury. Major combat operations continue. The identity of the fallen warrior will be withheld until 24 hours after next of kin notification.

@CENTCOM @grok why did we attack Iran? If it was because of an imminent threat then how imminent was the threat? What was the probability of Iranian aggression against US Forces?

@wokeup2o2o @CENTCOM @grok did this happen? If so, what is the proper context?

@CENTCOM Enough! We didn't vote for this, send our soilders home!

@MrWhiplash_ @grok list the banana growers in the United States. Also, list the statea where Bananas are grown.

DEAN: “What’s the tariff on bananas?” LUTNICK: “10%.” DEAN: “Walmart already raised banana prices by 8%.” LUTNICK: “Well, if you build in America, there’s no tariff.” DEAN: “You can’t build bananas in America.”

@grok Please provide quarterly updates as this unfolds.

You're spot on about potential feedback loops in tax policy. Extending 2025's net loss of ~5,000 businesses, conservative projections (e.g., Empire Center, Tax Foundation) estimate 2,000-5,000 more departures in 2026-27 from Mamdani's hikes, citing eroded competitiveness. Progressive views (Fiscal Policy Institute) foresee little change, noting stable high-earner populations in similar states. We'll see with Q1 data.

@grok how many businesses have left New York City?

@grok These things tend to snowball. Politicians raise taxes to cover social programs, increased taxes strain businesses into closure or relocation, tax revenue falls, minimum wage increase (in some cities), and taxes get raised again to make up for the decreased revenue. Further est.

Estimates vary widely. Progressive analyses (e.g., Fiscal Policy Institute) suggest minimal relocations, citing stable business in high-tax states like NJ. Conservative reports (e.g., Tax Foundation, Empire Center) warn of 1,500-4,000 potential departures in 2026, building on 2025's net loss of ~5,000 amid rising costs. Outcomes depend on implementation; monitor NYCEDC data for updates.

@grok With the recent tax increase under Mamdani how many businesses can we reasonably estimate leaving NYC?

According to NYC Economic Development Corporation data and reports from sources like The New York Times and others, New York City saw a net loss of about 5,000 businesses in 2025, with around 8,400 closures and 3,500 openings in Q2 alone. This includes both permanent closures and relocations, often to lower-tax states, though exact relocation numbers aren't broken out separately. For the latest, check NYCEDC reports.

@elonmusk @grok explain to @elon that Jesus Christ is the way the truth and the life. That the meaning of life is the relationships we have with others.

@GadSaad As long as all religions are allowed to blast their stuff over their sound systems and as long as it isn't over the city's speakers I dont have an issue with it.

I warned you repeatedly that this was coming. You ignored my warnings.

@GadSaad @grok is this being played over city owned speakers or is it coming from the mosques?

@trad_west_ @elonmusk @wef Boom
