@TeamPokeColors Many people think that 'rare' means valuable. However, valuation is derived by desirability. Golden Age comics are rare because they were all destroyed in the 1940s but only the popular ones are valuable. Pokemon cards are not rare by any metric, the value is based on popularity.

Nothing confuses me more than the pricing difference between modern and vintage. $1,000 Pikachu that still can be printed for a few years to come but a Jungle Scyther from 1999/2000 that’s been out of print for years is $10? Make it make sense!

@tanialemon_ Fake sneakers killed that market. This will kill the pokemon card market.

Loose Pokémon packs are cooked 💀 now that factories can re-seal them at scale.

@VariousRegards @YorubaCowboy @whotfisjovana You are correct, people did raise and consume chickens for their meat. It is not a very difficult thing. But they were still in limited supply. They was not part of the regular diet. Typically saved for holy feast days. More likely that an old boiler was stewed.

@YorubaCowboy @whotfisjovana In fact, they are exactly that easy. Plucking the feathers is the worst of it. I am confident that even you could manage it. Easily. Any people who make their livelihood on the land would find the task entirely negligable.

imagine thinking peasants could afford rotisserie chicken

@TRIGGERHAPPYV1 Just Beanie Babies all over again. Men wasting time and money. Adult Pokemon collecting (and sneaker collecting) is an ugly look.

@creepydotorg @grok will 55mg of pure LSD kill a human being?

A 46-year-old woman accidentally snorted 55 mg of pure LSD because she thought it was cocaine, roughly 550 times the normal recreational dose. She vomited for 12 hours and remained under the effects of the substance for about 34 hours. But when she woke up, the chronic foot pain she had suffered for over 20 years, attributed to Lyme disease, was reportedly gone. She stopped taking morphine for five days and then began microdosing LSD every three days. Three years later, she had completely quit morphine, with no withdrawal symptoms or relapse reported. Researchers described it as an extraordinary case of non-fatal high-dose LSD ingestion with long-term pain relief.

@TRIGGERHAPPYV1 Life is very cheap in places like that. Very, very cheap.

@AcademicAgent_X Poor Agrabah doesn't stand a chance.

I wonder if the fake Disneyland Arab states are going to survive all this.

@GriftReport It was his Twin Peaks character.

X-Files legend David Duchovny, 65, stuns fans with a full drag makeover, blonde wig, bright red lipstick, lacy black negligee, sequined mini skirt, stockings and heels. The former Mulder was snapped on the LA set of his own satirical comedy Soapbox, which he co-wrote and stars in alongside Laverne Cox (who wore a suit). He plays an ageing soap opera star caught up in modern culture wars. Duchovny looked in high spirits flashing smiles and adjusting his shades. The internet has gone nuts over seeing Fox Mulder in drag 😂😂

@TheCinesthetic The opening scene was too full on. I think the director was so keen to impress the viewer with how "crazy" the 20s was that he over did it. If he had cut it back by 40% and built it up over the film, I would have made it past the first 15 minutes.

Margot Robbie says she still can’t figure out "why people hated ‘BABYLON’" "I wonder if in 20 years people are gonna be like ‘Wait, Babylon didn’t do well at the time? That’s crazy.’" x.com/margotrobbiev/…

@TheStingisBack Its a great movie

Cocktail (1988) won a Razzie for Worst Film of the Year, and I demand a recount. It shaped bar culture. It looks gorgeous, you get Elisabeth Shue AND Gina Gershon, an ultra-charismatic Bryan Brown, and Tom Cruise doing Tom Cruise-type things. That bad? Or do we love it a little?

@FantasyGalaxies Ok time to be honest now. Who else actually liked the scene when Vader howled 'Nooooooo' at the end. I did. I am not ashamed to admit it any more!!!

I genuinely can't understand how the previous generation saw this in 2005 and said "this sucks"

@TruthFairy131 The grass is always greener on the otherside of the fence.

I know so people that have left Australia & are talking about leaving Australia, many have been fighting for change for years but it’s only getting worse. The insane cost of living, high taxes, high level of increasing migrant crime & violence is driving many Aussies out. Our nation is unrecognisable & the Australian dream is dead. What hope does the next generation have? What hope do any of us have? We have a tyrannical corrupt Antiwhite Government that are making our lives hell & they’ve rigged the system so I don’t know how we can even vote our way out of this. We look around a feel like strangers in our own country & we are demonised & terrorised by 3rd world hostile migrants. It’s not even safe to move around our own communities anymore. This isn’t living. This is no environment for our people to raise children. I love my people & this country but Australia no longer feels like home nor do I see a future here if something doesn’t change.

@LewSpears The opposite is in fact the truth. The prison colony was not very strict. Until the 1940s Australia had very few rules. However, once the population become more diverse it became harder to manage. The government needed strict central planning and legislation to maintain order.

Every Australian is descended from either a prisoner or a prison guard. This is why we despise rules, yet follow them even when they don’t make sense and resent those who do not. We are and always have been a spiritual prison colony

@TheBasicExpert1 It was a golden age.

Never forget what they took from you. This hobby used to be Peter Cushing in a smoking jacket. Look at it now. We can make this a gentleman's hobby again, though.

@faith_vtch Europeans believe open windows will make them sick. They will sleep in a hot and humid room instead of sleep with any form of 'draught' touch them. Its very kooky.

I grew up with a German parent, so imagine my surprise when I moved out and realized people do not open their windows. My roommates were SHOCKED when I would air the house out in the morning 😭 what do u mean youve never heard of air being stale

@ausstockchick I asked one once. He said its a whatsapp group call the runs 24/7. Could be 2 or 3 people logged in at any moment. It just runs all day and the drivers can pipe in whenever.

Can you please tell me what these uber drivers are saying when they talk non stop on the phone? I have never been in a late night uber with a driver in Perth who doesn’t make a call. Who are they on the phone to?! #ausbiz

@AvidCommentator He runs a business, likely on tight margins with quotes he made months ago. I don't blame him.

@bankertobuilder Send us a night shot, we need to see the red or purple LED light strips.

A modern twist on an old classic We turned this 1960s conversation pit living room into a modern beauty What do you think?

@lucki3stloser @LewSpears Dont feel bad. They will go out of business, but corporations seem not to worry about things like that anymore.

@LewSpears FR when I first started going out in town I always got black cabs and they were so horrible to me I’ve moved over to uber, even though I feel genuinely bad that the wages are much less & putting black cabs out of business.
