@coasterstudios I believe the books above a certain level are just stickers

This bookstore was crazy! Don’t know how practical it is but it’s certainly a sight to behold😂

@TaxedAndAbused @CaHSRA ... and he blocked me

@TaxedAndAbused @CaHSRA Lol @ nuclear warheads. The same nukes that have been 1 day from completion for the last 20 years. The same ones that Trump "oblierated" last year? Such a sheep

The California High-Speed Rail Authority has released the Draft 2026 Business Plan for a 60-day public comment period running now through 4/29/26. Learn more here: bit.ly/4b1h02A To review the plan and leave a comment visit: bit.ly/4rW2pwg

@agguman @CaHSRA It's funny that we shit on CAHSR for spending 14billion over 18 years for something that has proven value, but most people will never even realize that Facebook wasted $80billion on its now-defunct Metaverse experiment

@CaHSRA What a joke of a project all that money and still nothing.

California high-speed rail recently celebrated the completion of the southern railhead site! 🏗️ 150-acre site for track installation materials & more 🚧 Includes workshop, maintenance yard, storage 🚅 10 miles of temp. train tracks installed for receiving & delivering material

@agguman @CaHSRA Even funnier that this is just one week of the Iranian war.

@TheUnsaid11 @CaHSRA Fun fact: The CAHSR over the last 18 years has spent the equivalent of one week of the Iranian war. Or just 15% of what the Metaverse has cost

Only for the low, low price of 1,000,000,000 plane tickets between SF & LA!!! And that's not even covering the yearly operation & maintenance costs. Choo choo train fans will say there's no limit to the tax money that you must pay for their dream! ($100B estimated cost for CA HSR. One way ticket between SF & LA: $100)

@TaxedAndAbused @CaHSRA Crazy that 20 years of this High Speed Rail project has still cost less than 1 week of the Iran War.

@CaHSRA The only rational business plan for this boondoggle would be to shut it down, sell off any remaining assets and give the money back to the taxpayers. 🤡

@haugejostein Oof. And look at the dates of polling. A month before the biggest US-created worldwide crisis of this administration

This is wild. People in *every single one* of the top US allies now think it's better to depend on China than the US. The global balance of power is clearly tilting away from the US and toward China.

@MattWalshBlog Is it true that the Iran War spent more money in one week than the CA High Speed Rail did in 20 years?

The Hoover Dam was built in the amount of time it has taken California to construct a small bridge for cats and butterflies. The Empire State Building was built in about a quarter of the time.

In 2017, the government cut the corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%. Corporations promised to raise worker wages with the savings. Here’s what they actually did. S&P 500 buybacks jumped 55% in one year, from $519 billion in 2017 to $806 billion in 2018. By 2024, buybacks hit a record $942.5 billion. Goldman Sachs projects they’ll cross $1 trillion in 2025. Every dollar of buybacks inflates the stock price. The top 10% of Americans own 87% of all stocks. The bottom 50% own roughly 1%. So the government cut taxes on corporations. Corporations sent the cash to shareholders. Shareholders were already the wealthiest people in the country. Then the government said “we’re all in this together.” Run the scoreboard. Workers’ share of GDP hit 53.8% in Q3 2025, the lowest since the Bureau of Labor Statistics started tracking in 1947. It was 70% back then. Fortune 500 profits hit a record $1.87 trillion in 2024. The top 1% now hold $55 trillion in wealth. The bottom 50%, all 66 million households, hold $4.1 trillion. The gap between corporate profits and worker compensation as a share of GDP is now the widest since World War II. Airlines are building $25,000 first-class suites while McDonald’s sells $5 value meals. Both rational responses to the same economy splitting in half. The meme is a period drama. The Federal Reserve’s data from last quarter says the ratio is generous.

@Eli_Fit1 @RonFilipkowski He's talking about the decorations for the Trump-Kennedy Center. You need to get your facts straight. There are multiple vanity projects.

@RonFilipkowski Isn't there a war with American soldiers dying? The President needs to turn off the TV & stop worrying about fucking decorations for his ballroom. We couldnt have a bigger loser as president. Shame on Republicans for making us put up with this shit. Vote them all the fuck out

Trump and the Republican Party are laser focused on making your life better. x.com/Acyn/status/20…

@CargoShortLife @CNN I went to preschool INSIDE a military installation. Don't talk about things you don't understand

@CNN Don't put military installations next to schools. Western countries don't.

The US military accidentally struck an Iranian elementary school, in an attack that state media said killed at least 168 children and 14 teachers, likely due to outdated information about a nearby naval base, according to two sources briefed on the preliminary findings of an ongoing military investigation. cnn.it/4ruWgX8

That is insane: "Biden’s pardons eliminated roughly $680,000 in financial penalties owed to victims or the government. In contrast, Trump’s second-term pardons have forgiven criminal debts of more than $1.5 billion."

@DrvingWhileJosh @JimShull They wasted it on the Fairmont Hotel and Burj Al Arab, so why not?

@JimShull You think they’d waste ordinance on Disneyland?

The military actions currently in the #MiddleEast raise concerns that #DisneylandAbuDhabi might not open. Imagineers shouldn’t be placed in risk just to build a theme park. Following this story on YouTube.com/jimhshull

@SDUnitedComm @WesSDCali Where are you seeing this? Hottest looks to be the landfill. The hottest developed neighborhoods look like Mira Mesa. The densest neighborhoods (North Park/City Heights) are pretty average, and downtown looks downright chilly compared to everything else

@WesSDCali lol. The hottest areas are the very dense and industrial area. So nope, your wrong

Heat islands are NOT along the coast nor are they where the tallest buildings are (i.e., downtown). In San Diego, heat severity is a result of sprawling single family neighborhoods, their roads, parking lots, and other pavement. Coastal density is pro-environment and humane.

@JimShull Disney should not be involved in a park here. Not just for the potential for destructive wars affecting a Disney park, but Disney shouldn't be supporting the human rights abuses in that nation

Visitors to #AbuDhabiDisneyland may have a longer wait to visit due to the current conflict in the region. #Iranwar It will likely be awhile before the situation is resolved.

@nbcsandiego At least they have personality right now

The downtown Los Angeles skyscrapers, which have attracted graffiti artists, vandals and daredevils, has been sold to new owners, prompting city officials to demand "immediate cleanup." on.nbc7.com/FBKyt7N

@JimShull I dislike 1-IP-themed lands, but Zootopia is a better fit than Avatar.

With a hit of the pause button at #DCA there is time to replace #Avatar with #Zootopia in the Hollywood Studios area of the park. The ride fits and #DCA could even convert the old Muppets 3D theater to show the #AnimalKingdom film. More on YouTube.com/jimhshull

The news cycle only recently asked me to accept one looksmaxxing influencer, which I believed well enough. Weird but I'll believe it. Now only weeks later they're rolling out a second looksmaxxing influencer saying HE'S been famous all along and that's too far. There can't be two

@ScottyObvKnows @DrumrofTedworth @mat_coyg @BBCWorld Ah, you're a "rules for thee, but not for me" person. Got it
