@UPS I swear to god. Customer service requires a name of recipient on the package to help in any way. I don't know who. It could 7 people each with name variations. It's a mystery sender. I just want to driver to knock on the door/ring the doorbell! It needs a signature. Wtf!

Poop tweeting. I'm just returning to giving people what I promised so many years ago.

#pooptweet It's coming out slow. I need it to not come out slow right now.

I know we're fucked because a company like Nvidia has a literal monopoly and nothing happens. Companies are pay to play with the USA and nothing happens. The Department of Justice might as well not exist. It's not doing anything.

F-r-u-s-t-r-a-t-i-o-n

I'll just go back 10 years and the same kind of jobs are now asking for you to take on much more responsibility and no so much more but are really only paying 20% to 30% more. The economy is a disaster, AI is eliminating so many jobs, and now we have a new forever war.

Oh yeah, Trump economy is doing great! I was already upset that everything costs at least twice as much as it did 20 years ago, but wages have not doubled. Far from it.

Oh, the US doesn't use the Strait of Hormuz? Then explain why gas is up $1.30 in the last two weeks. Either we do use it, or we are being gouged by the oil companies. It affects the price of oil, therefore the US uses it. What a mess.

Whether would you go? What country by the nature of your error, should give you harbor?

Findom or financial domination has to be one of the most amazing professions. It goes like this: • Sub give dom money • End of transaction

@banana_organs @PalmerRadio Thank you. I laughed again. I needed that today!

@PalmerRadio @PalmerRadio what @MrReitz said

You can tag me in your false gorilla-winning scenarios until the end of time and I will never waver.

@TheArenaCNN @DavidJUrban @kasie @jeffzeleny @BarakRavid @AlexThomp It wasn't about Iran's nuclear program, then it was, now it's about them producing missiles, the story keeps changing. We've been giving about seven or eight reasons at this point. It's a clown show. If it was about nukes, they would hit that and be done. 3 weeks later...

"Americans, like, hang with us, right? This is a noble cause," @DavidJUrban says of the Iran War.  "But the president's not saying that," @kasie pushes back.  "Well, I am saying, 'hang with us Americans,'" @DavidJUrban repeats.  W/ @jeffzeleny @BarakRavid @AlexThomp @XochitlHinojosa

@AyyubJackson @zoeweston @charise_lee It would look like dissolving the government and then shortly after, an adversarial power coming in and taking over You would have to dissolve the government. We have a representative democracy. That would have to change. It's completely unrealistic.

@zoeweston @charise_lee Can you explain what that would look like?

The perfect analogy‼️

@NewsHour Yeah because that doesn't step all over the tenth amendment.

President Donald Trump vowed this week not to sign any bills into law until a sweeping new voting bill is passed. If it's enacted, the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility, or SAVE America Act, would transform voting in this country in two major ways. The bill would require all Americans to prove U.S. citizenship when registering to vote, and it would require all voters to show an I.D. when voting in person or by mail. @ElizLanders takes a closer look at the legislation's prospects.

@cwebbonline Yes I know what a loaf of bread is, I would have to refer to the baking instructions to give you the correct wording. I can't describe what it is, even though I understand what it is.

If you lost your job because of DOGE, this will enrage you. They built a whole-ass political crusade around “DEI,” then sent a staffer into a deposition who couldn’t even define it. His name is Justin Fox and his assignment was to help flag grants for elimination based on a term he struggled to explain under oath and kept saying he needed to refer to Trump’s EO. 🥴 Justin sounds mediocre at best.

@atrupar I think he forgot this

Palantir CEO Alex Karp on his support for Trump's Iran war: "I don't really believe in the wars we've fought in the past, because I don't believe in regime change. And that's one of the reasons I'm supportive of this policy we currently have."

Then what's the point of using the authenticator? It makes no sense. How many codes do I have to put in? This time it was two. How many will it be next time? 3? 1? The authenticator should be enough. Next thing you know I'm going to get a phone call.

@Shopify There is seriously something wrong with your security protocols. I use my password to enter my account, I use my authenticator code. That should be enough. Then you make me jump through an extra step and enter an email code because it's "suspicious".

@JShodanVR There's a couple reasons why it's dead. It's too much money for a setup like this. Also, you answered your own question, the kind of games we wanted VR on just aren't being made anymore.

I don’t understand. This stuff is real, it exists, you can actually buy it, and yet the VR market is almost dead. What happened to the kids in the 90s who dreamed about this possibility? Why do modern kids now go crazy for games where you don’t really do anything, where at most you just swipe up and down, or spend their time screaming in stupid games that require no concentration, like amoebas with no curiosity? This stuff finally f***ing exists, and yet the videogame market pretends it’s invisible. F***! F***! F***! In 1998, when we were 13 playing Resident Evil 2 on the PlayStation with my friends, we would have killed to be able to play something like this.
