Imagine dating someone and then having to look in their face at a convention post break-up? And they have a new flame in tow at their booth to boot? Nah, that is not the life for me!

NO. And I say that with some people I truly adore currently in healthy loving relationships with a peer in comics. What you do is date someone career-adjacent. That way you have things in common and respect each other's work, but if you have a bad break up you don't ever have to see them again.

I love how the big news on Trump’s tariff announcement is how moments before he made it a bunch of people made insanely profitable shorts on crypto, a thing that Bitcoin Bros are all astounded to see happening in a completely unregulated market of a fake currency primarily used by criminals.

BREAKING: Look at this.

A new crypto account was opened yesterday morning.

30 minutes BEFORE Trump's announcement of 100% tariffs on China, it added a huge multi-million dollar levered Bitcoin short position, per YF.

The market dumped.

The trader made a profit of $192 million in two hours.

Unusual.

JUST IN: An anonymous trader opened massive crypto short positions just 30 minutes before Trump’s tariff announcements yesterday.

They made an estimated $192M in profits.

Donald Trump needs to go to jail. He is thief, he is literally robbing people internationally.

He announced 100% Tarrifs on China and sends the US stock market into a death spiral.

At the same time someone put over 1 Billion dollars into crypto with orders for 100 million being placed on Ethereum and Bitcoin and other crypto currencies across the board whilst markets got wiped after what he said. Billions, and I mean fucking billions got wiped out, whilst Bitcoin had it a biggest dip ever in a single candle losing 20k per Bitcoin, Whilst alt coins lost over 60-70% of value, everyone with leverage on the market with even 2 x leverage got murdered and robbed.

This was co ordinated, this was market manipulation with one anonymous wallet making over 200 million dollars in one day with trades showing that they knew Trump was going to announce this and crash the market.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

It is already clear that these companies are circling the Trump administration to compete for handouts. I would show the lavish lifestyles of these tech bros in advance. And then show military families on food bank lines.

The message must be "No bailouts for billionaires." AI is not too big to fail. And should it fail, the richest men in the world should be held accountable and take responsibility for their failures.

I think the Democrats need to start making the likely AI crash an issue right now. It has everything they need, and unlike the "boys in girls' sports" issue, it is actually rooted in reality.

Trump: "The person who actually got the Nobel Prize called today, called me, and said 'I'm accepting this in honor of you, because you really deserved it.' A really nice thing to do. I didn't say 'Then give it to me, though.'"

I'm so sick of these dudes taking the most American foods ever and using them to be racist. And not even racist in a way where any sort of logic is followed. What tf are Americans in the southwest supposed to eat? Creme Brulee? "Ha ha! You like fried chicken and watermelon!" WHO TF DOESN'T, MORON?!
