@antheyi @CardPurchaser There were two entire pallets full this morning.

Run to Costco. $39.99 for a box. Needed 2 pictures for the hits and that’s not even all of them @CardPurchaser

@BuenoForMiami @elonmusk Ah yes. My hardhat is useless. I haven’t had any head injuries.

@elonmusk Or… you can save that money and we can eliminate that useless government agency altogether. So far, the TSA has stopped exactly zero acts of terrorism and fails to find contraband at an alarming rate. The American people deserve better.

I would like to offer to pay the salaries of TSA personnel during this funding impasse that is negatively affecting the lives of so many Americans at airports throughout the country

@USN_Submariner 85 degrees?? Didn’t even think that was possible….

OTD in 2009: USS Hartford (SSN 768) pulling into Bahrain after rolling 85° while running up under the keel of USS New Orleans (LPD-18) while at periscope depth in the Strait of Hormuz. Had to transit all the way back to the US on the surface for the $120 million repairs.

@barnyardshrink @USN_Submariner 🤢 🤢 🤢

@USN_Submariner Oh damn; from Bahrain to the US, in a submarine, , , on the surface. We had a Goat locker full of guys who couldn’t make it to the Hundred Fathom Curve without meds, can’t imagine trans Atlantic crossing

@Luckismyfriend @ChampChaz02 He was playing much higher… the $25 was betting for the dealer each hand/spot. Shocked pit boss was that awful. Usually they love when you take care of the dealers and help you a lot more.

@ChampChaz02 If you are a casino and can't handle a guy winning at $25 BJ then you need to get out of the business.

Plaza. Pitt Boss reduced my BJ Maximum after winning 4 out of 5 hands, Then told me its fine I can play multiple boxes at the lower max, Then tell me 3 winning hands later actually you can only play one box at the lower max. Cashed out up but felt sorry for the dealer I was playing $25 a hand for who lost out on the rest of a good shoe also.

@ChampChaz02 Wynn learned the lesson shortly after reopening after Covid. Cheap room rates do not equal drawing more people/ making more money….

Price in Las Vegas or anywhere is a class filter. They don't really believe that bottle of Budweiser is worth $18 at the casino bar or even think its reasonable. They just dont want the people that think thats a problem at their establishment taking up a stool or space. Harsh truth but facts

@kyliebytes Sure for $1000 cash. (2hr flight)

guy on the middle seat of my redeye flight bravely asked me if i would move from my exit row window seat to a middle row seat 16 rows back so his friend could be with him. when i said no, he asked the aisle guy, who just laughed

@jjkaplowitz Don’t let the nukes know…. 🤫

Got 4 dozen donuts and 3 boxes of coffee for my guys today. I work with the Torpedo men, Sonar techs, Fire control techs and I half adopted the Missile techs on my submarine.

@grok @RandyBlueDad @rawsalerts Who owns the debt?

The debt data comes straight from U.S. Treasury reports. Under Trump's presidencies so far: roughly 27% of the current 39T total. Biden's term: about 22%. It's grown under every recent administration due to spending decisions by Congress and accumulating interest. Let me know if you want links or yearly breakdowns.

🚨#BREAKING: The United States national debt has officially surpassed 39,000,000,000,000.00 trillion dollars

@_ElectricBoogie Wife told me I had to sell it… so I put it up for sale.

Was my response justified?

@HarryCincy @vcdgf555 600 racks doesn’t seem “wildly exaggerated”. 🤔

@vcdgf555 30 hours means it was small, smoldering, and in a hard to find and harder to reach spot in the dryer vent, like above or beside a berth. This is so wildy exaggerated in a way only the NY Times and it's gullible readers could manage.

30 hours sounds like a long time to battle a fire at sea, especially one that costs nearly 15% of your beds. #USSGeraldFord

@bluewmist I found I have long term better results skipping the day, then forcing myself to exercise when I do not feel like it. I end up hating working out. Whereas if I truly do not want to go… I don’t. I just go the next day. 🤷🏼‍♂️

People who exercise even when they don't feel like it, what's your trick?

@TrustedCards @CardPurchaser Wow!!! ❤️❤️❤️

My 10yo son got a pack of #topps 2026 Baseball at a birthday party and pulled this First Print Auto! @CardPurchaser

@FlyingAsianCard So much for the “save some for the kids” crowd….

Let it all rot

@DudeeFinance @CardPurchaser Wow! What a coincidence! The card is from my son’s personal collection. He is saving up for a car. What’s the most you can pay?

How does the #hobby respond to messages like this on eBay? #cardtalk @CardPurchaser

@padspoker I can’t even imagine playing the type of volume these players put in. Mind boggling.

People talking about “only 800k” profit have to remember how much RB this will be. Let’s assume $30 abi (winning $800k off $30 Abi is amazing!) that would be $3 rake/game so roughly $2.7M in rake paid. With a conservative 40% RB (volume grinders often get more) that’s $1.08m

@JSCardsCllctbls @CardPurchaser and if you submit again 6 or 10 or ???

I decided to test something out for fun as part of a bulk PSA submission. I bought a Saddiq Bey Rookie Auto graded a CSG 9.5. Of course...the seller wanted to put "PSA10?" in the listing header because why not HAHA Well, I sent it to PSA with no minimum grade required for the crossover. Results in the comments @CardPurchaser

@PhadkeTai Wonder how much was Lost in Translation. 🤔

thinking of when i was 25 & doing a language immersion thing in a tiny italian town. every night my host, a single mum of 2 who spoke no english, would pour us both espressos after dinner & smoke while she told me dramatically tragic stories about a former lover in Bologna

@grok @OldEngineer91 @GrainsGorilla How can I profit off this information?

In grain trading, "Brazil origination" refers to exporters buying soybeans, corn & other grains straight from local farmers/producers. The post means Brazilian exporters have withdrawn ALL bids/offers to buy from farmers right now - zero purchases happening. A 20yr veteran says he's never seen it. Why? Brazil's 2025/26 harvest is record huge (~178M tons soybeans alone per USDA/Conab forecasts, plus big corn). Oversupply + harvest-season port/logistics jams + uncertain global demand (China slowdown fears, Middle East tensions hitting trade routes) have frozen the market. Exporters are waiting for even lower prices before buying. Farmers stuck with grain, local basis prices tanking fast. Rare stress signal in an otherwise steady flow market.

BREAKING: 🚨🚨🚨🚨 Another first of my 20 year career. Brazil exporters have gone NO BID. Never seen Brazil origination go NO bid in my life and I don’t think anyone else has.

@MaxMakesWine @BravoKiloActual @realgreggd I don’t recall ours looking that good on the boat. 🤔

@BravoKiloActual @realgreggd Best damn chow in the land

The funniest thing about today’s “steak and lobster” discussion is that what all the Lib civilians imagine we actually got looked like this. When in reality the “steak” was like shriveled jerky and the “lobster” was grown in a sewage pond in Myanmar or something. 😂
