This includes a M7.4 earthquake on July 20, 2025, which would now be considered a foreshock of the July 29, 2025, M8.7 event. This new event is located 45 km southeast of the 1952 M 9.0 Kamchatka earthquake, which resulted in a destructive, Pacific-wide tsunami.

That is one tall graph. There are executives making a bit more money than the average worker then there is showing how bad it has really gotten.

Companies lay off thousands of employees and executives still get tens of millions.
NEW: EA CEO Andrew Wilson was paid $30.5 million in cash and stock this past year, up about $5m from a year ago

Since the U.S. requires companies to compare CEO pay to employee pay, I made an EA pay chart

To make it work, I had to make it VERY TALL

Take a look: www.gamefile.news/p/ea-ceo-and...
EA CEO’s pay is up, as EA worker median income drops
Behold, the tallest chart in Game File history. PLUS: EA execs were paid (a little) more for boosting generative AI

Good now we know the "special relationship" was only special to the UK. It was largely one way after WW2. People in the US Government laughed in our faces behind closed doors at how much we sucked up.
Here's Marjorie Taylor Greene literally telling a British reporter to "go back to your country" and berating her for trying to ask a question.

"We don't give a CRAP about your opinion."

Dear price of eggs Trump voters,

Not only aren’t they any cheaper, there’s an actual shortage because of the raging Bird Flu we’re not getting any public information about because the food safety & public health agencies responsible for that shit have basically been shut down.

Bravo.
