@Crystalejandro being over the top to describe simple things. Some people love to do this. When you notice they do it constantly, it becomes more difficult to take them as serious as someone who doesn't go out of their way to give a process an exaggerated description.

Why is everybody saying they “sourced” a designer item? Finding an archive/vintage designer piece for a good price on a resale site is not “sourcing”.

One of the worst parts of modern life is feeling like you have to investigate everything before you pay for it. Cars, houses, medical bills, repairs, groceries… every industry feels like a trap waiting for distracted people. Living is hard enough without feeling like everyone’s trying to finesse you.

For anyone who uses StubHub to buy/sell tickets, a cautionary post... I purchased four tickets to all three sessions of March Madness in St Louis on March 20 and 22 for $2000 total. When Illinois did not end up in the STL bracket, I sold the tickets on Stubhub on March 15...

Anyone else stuck in this weird cycle where work is so exhausting that your hobbies feel like too much work, so you don’t do them, and then you go back to work upset that you didn’t take time to do the things you enjoy?

@hydrothemc would be an interesting plan on the retros that they haven't come close to doing. Probably too much long term planning for them. At best they say oh wait lets bombard the market with 4+ colorways of a single model.

If Nike was smart they would just pick a year and run back the lineup in the same order for the same prices with full size runs and watch the market explode.

@jakewoolf i come across their line that looks no different than this on eBay that I'd guess is anywhere from the last 3 to 30 years. Whats special now?

Ralph Lauren is currently on a generational run of excellent hats in the collection The polo sportsman in particular is a need

If someone asks if they can get you anything else, just say no. They don't want to get something else for you, they don't want to be rude by not offering.

@MikeMonaco_ it was maybe a fun cool thing when it was one brand. As a default thing for every unnecessary hat company... god bless anyone still making some in 2026.

Old Man Take: I don’t understand the appeal of hats with upside-down text. I’m not doing a handstand.

@gorilla_rape Have they done an explosives one yet with fireworks? thought that was necessary first time i came across these

holy fuck

This has been the kind of copywriting this shoe has had since 2022.

@ChefDoomy i liked the other posts and feel so dumb. I should have known. It's honestly seems pretty darn good reading the closing lines.

@rfkenmore Wine brand Ridge? That is a @ridgewallet

Coming around to the idea that if you were to rebuild Esquire or GQ today, it would have to look something like Speeed on YouTube Even the wine brand, Ridge, has worked with him With consumers leaning into personalities and niches over faceless corporations, it makes sense for there to be a strong, central host or face — like James Pumphrey here — to build a relationship with Accessible, visual, unpretentious, and relatable Natural progression I imagine is diversifying into a portfolio of personalities Barstool of course has done this in some ways. But in a bit of a different lane

@ShaanVP send it

I'm secretly launching a 2nd youtube channel reply "send it" and I'll dm it to you

@thesamparr hats sandlotgoods.com from missouri like you

A niche but cool biz: USA made cool swag. I’m trying to buy stuff for Hampton. Want chore jacket, denim, sweater, bag…anything like that. Our logo with a cool background story. Hard to find.

@OSheaSEO ask them to prove it to spur engagement. Nobody whose opinion is an actual critique worth considering would probably even make the claim.

Several Facebook commenters have now accused me of posting AI-written content. Very frustrating because I research and write everything manually. The "old school" way. How do you combat the AI accusations? Or is it not even worth replying?

@mws Those rates seem low compared to some random results I've seen. Is this actually a cap on "new" accounts in a way?

Creators need to know about this: Facebook just launched Creator Fast Track If you’re successful on IG, TikTok, or YouTube.. Facebook will literally PAY you to repost there too If you have 100K+ Followers on ANY of those, they’ll pay $1,000/mo And 1M+ Followers = $3,000/mo

@joeflaccoburner the average person doesn't think twice about the design of everything they come across. It never has and never will be that deep for them.

why are we so happy with graphics that look like this 💔🥀

@esjesjesj maybe i'm just dumb but this whole clip is the most introspective thing I've seen in recent memory.

When I say that every last one of these guys is a sociopath I am not exaggerating

@ByronMBader just search eBay for a vintage, new unworn will pop up more than you'd expect.

Going to need a 30 for 30 on how baseball hats cost $60 in 2026. What's happening here?

The first lesson I learned today is to get over yourself while being willing to have a lil fun with things. The second thing I learned is to not dwell on stuff when you don’t get your way. Move on to the next chance.
