You will consider this a threat. You should. You're killing us right now. There's nothing just about it. It's just power, ego & greed. You should suffer the same callous fate that you are exacting upon us. F*ck you! Let that sink in, f*ck you. We're moving towards your outlook, just towards you.
As this shut down continues, more Luigis. You could not have a bigger example of the rich leveraging their power to show that they don't give a f*ck if you die. Why should they be immune? Be a god d*amn human or f*cking die already. It never should have come to this. But, this is your greed.

Wake up call. "Illegal immigrants" aren't taking your jobs. Trump doesn't produce anything in the USA because it's cheaper to get bullied labor from other authoritarian regimes. Stop buying their con that immigrants are your problems for work. It's the fascists that screwed you, not immigrants.

cops tackling and marching off with a giant penis, Kristi Noem menacing a chicken she swears is antifa, feds pepper-spraying a frog

ridicule is an extremely effective protest tactic and foil for authoritarianism
Well, you can finally cross “I’ve seen a handcuffed, inflatable penis” off your bucket list

Newsletter: Anatomy of a crypto meltdown

October 2025 brought the most dramatic crypto flash crash of all time, but it was only a dress rehearsal for the systemic crisis the industry is building toward.

Fucking wow
RFK JR: There are many other confirmations -- there are two studies that show children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism. It’s highly likely because they are given Tylenol

The bitcoin community is fighting over an upcoming software change that one developer has warned will be the end of bitcoin. He has reportedly discussed creating a trusted group of censors with the authority to alter data recorded on chain.

I can't stop thinking about "Frank M".

The taco truck gave me his order instead of mine. I ate his birria. Did he eat my chicken? Did he complain? Did he make them cook him a new meal? Did it ruin his night?

I kept hearing sirens all night long... wondering if they were coming for me.

Pedophile shitcoiner fascist
A 12-foot golden statue of Donald Trump holding a Bitcoin was unveiled outside the Capitol on 3rd Street.

[Literally a golden idol…and still no self-reflection from the hypocritical Christofascists who worship Trump.]

You now have a "Republican" government that wants to turn the USA into the Romania of the past. Yes, Romania was "socialist" and the USA isn't, but the absolute disregard for the rights and well being of others by the Trump administration is the same as Ceaușescu. [6/9]
