  • My kid has all of them.

    We watched all the YT videos. It’s a couple of familiar tropes you could say, on one hand it’s kind of random YT poop kind of humor. And you know. Toilet humor. Then it becomes a ‘‘I can’t believe they took this dumb lol so funny joke and took it THIS far, this is really dumb’’ Then it’s '‘oh wow it just keeps going… wth… ‘’ Then it’s like ‘‘OK, actually when you take it that far it kinda starts being funny again… heh…’’ Then your like ‘‘oh it’s an arms race between the robot people and the toilet people… historically fascinating…’’ ‘Then it’s ‘’ do you think TV lady will every find love?’’ Then your buying your kid ten random toilet toys because you’ve lost control of your life.




  • Unfortunately I have decades of experience in retail, and several years in pricing. Pricing has almost nothing to do with markup ratios alone. That’s not how it works. How it actually works is that they charge what people expect to, are conditioned to, or are willing to pay. So I sell you a $7,000 TV I’m lucky if I make $20 on the deal. If you buy 3 HDMI cables I just made $60 in profits. Clothes is even crazier, I’ll sell you any leather product at a loss but you buy a well made mixed fabric dress and that’s $40 against a total cost of $0.75, and that’s mostly shipping. Soft lines are an absolute beast. Then you have advanced fuckery. Walmart has a lot of money. If the textiles from Bangladesh get hit harder than the textiles from Indonesia, guess who can afford to pay a shipping company based in Indonesia to forge paperwork and swap cargo in a third country’s port without anyone in the US figuring it out for decades even if they cared to investigate and in the end they have to pay a fine that will probably be less than the money saved from the shipping fruad. Small businesses will die. Huge businesses will get bigger and more powerful. This was always the plan.






  • Go read about the whites first contact with Polynesians, they literally stumbled on utopia and HATED it. They were FURIOUS these naked people surfed and sang and danced all day and farmed for about 15 seconds and had more food then they ever needed. They literally never heard about work, they had dance crew battles and picked their leaders by if they could do any cool tricks on the waves.








  • A lot of us have been expecting it for decades. Remember when Trump was still a joke candidate on the primary and he was doing an interview and a ‘‘serious’’ reporter interviewed him and asked about his racist comments towards a sitting US Judge who was born and raised in the US, but he had a Spanish name! So Trump was calling him a ‘‘mexican’’ and the reporter told him to tone down the racism and say ‘‘Hispanic’’ instead. He, real time, softened trumps message, that was ENTIRELY RACIST, to sound arguably not racist if you squint and pretend.

    Trump was never the problem, American style white supremacy has always been the problem. No, you aren’t free from racism because you call the people you are ethnicity clensing the correct term publicly.
