Things more dangerous than $7 coffees:
- $40,000 wedding ($5,000/hr party)
- $80,000 degree that gets you a $50,000/yr job
- $40,000 car loan because you "earned it"
- $2,000/mo apartments to flex for friends
...Thats why 80% of people are broke.

@sayinshallah I do think the question of utility needs to be answered. Not like oh it can do this amazing thing at a distant time in the future. Like what can all these coins do in a practical way for the average person.
A homeowner looks out his window and sees his neighbor’s fence towering far higher than what local codes allow. The trick? The top section is made of wooden boards that can be opened and closed. Whenever a city inspector shows up, the neighbor opens the boards so the fence magically meets the height limit. The inspector signs off and leaves. Minutes later, the boards are closed again, and the oversized fence is back. This kind of loophole gaming is frustrating. Codes exist for fairness and safety, and watching someone bend the rules while inspectors shrug it off makes the system feel toothless. When compliance depends on timing instead of truth, everyone else ends up paying for it. If a violation only disappears during inspections, is it really being enforced?
ICE officer to moronic female protester:
"We are here to arrest a child sex offender. You’re honking and impeding our investigation while we’re trying to arrest a child sex offender. That’s who you guys are protecting… insane."
In 2024 during the last peak EVERYONE I knew was getting into crypto.
Literally at peak I was at an event with a group of newbies telling them "This market can go to shit, you don't know how bad it can get".
They shrugged it off.
1 year and -90% later here's what happened
Outside of 1 guy , every person I knew who was getting in then and "considering going crypto full time" is now FULLY out and intentionally ignoring crypto.
I will tell them "dude it was hot at peak, now its so dead the prices are amazing:
And they will be like NOPE FUCK YOU and even look down at the fact I still participate in crypto and intentionally find ways to avoid even considering the market.
This is why so few people ever make money here.
They only become active and highly engaged when the market is already hot.
In order to make the legendary gains...You have to be LOCKED IN when the market is dead AF and everyone hates it.
The moment is now. This is what oversold bottoms look like.
When the market is up 20x and all your friends are giving you crypto advice/sharing picks...you'll come back to this post and laugh.
@Geniustechw Human basic courtesy should be to allow the truck driver in and not be some egotistical maniac in a shitbox.
So yeah, shitbox is at fault.
🇨🇳🍚 In China, there's such thing as fake plastic rice. It's made from items such as plastic bags.
The Chinese government "fact-checkers" have denied that this is true and claim its an unfounded rumor.
@thehill The fact that Florida a state full of Latinos and people of color regularly voted for Republicans to the point where this is a shocking news is so insane . Like how dumb do you have to be to vote for people who openly hate you ?
@TenCountSteve@DiscussingFilm I think it’s quite the opposite actually. People will likely hang out more as screens become increasingly integrated into society, maybe just not at the movies.
@DiscussingFilm Back in the day, households had one small TV and that was enough. Now everyone has a giant screen at home, and the appeal of movie theaters keeps fading. There are plenty of reasons, but a big one is simple: people just don’t want to be around other people anymore.
Netflix teases that Warner Bros’ theatrical release windows will evolve to become shorter
“My pushback has been mostly in the fact of the long exclusive windows, which we don’t really think are that consumer friendly,” says Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos
