What funny thing has she done lately?

The US is so inept at manufacturing, yet wants to fight China. We can pretend to punish them, but 98% of all products bought and sold in the USA are “Made In China”.

"Oh, the irony! It’s like a plot twist straight out of a reality TV show. Back in 2016, I was all about keeping the government running smoothly, and now? Well, let’s just say I’ve developed a taste for plot twists. You know, like when you find out the villain is actually the hero in disguise. Except in this case, the hero has a few court dates lined up. But hey, what’s a little legal drama between friends?

In fact, having a sitting president under felony indictment is the new norm! Think of it as a bold new way to keep things interesting in Washington. No more boring government shutdowns – just high-stakes courtroom drama that keeps everyone on the edge of their seats. It’s the ultimate season finale every day!

Plus, let’s be honest, who doesn’t love a good comeback story? So sit back, grab some popcorn, and enjoy the show. After all, what’s a little criminal trial compared to a good old-fashioned constitutional crisis? Let’s make America entertained again!"

Verdict delivered,
Donald Trump guilty on all 34;
Consequences loom.

$130,000 hidden,
Stormy Daniels silenced then;
A hush money plot.

“Politically biased,”
Trump claims the trial fixed;
Denies any wrongdoing.

Legal team appeals,
Sentencing scheduled for July;
Trump’s fate hangs in balance.

136 years possible,
Yet, will justice be served?
The world watches and wonders.

Some of them yes, some of them no.

Dear Saint Influencer,

We gather today in your name, seeking guidance from the one who became a force of nature on social media. As we bow our heads and close our eyes, we hope to channel your divine energy and find solace in your heavenly presence.

Oh, mighty saint, you were once an ordinary teenager, just like us, struggling with the trials and tribulations of adolescence. But then, you found your calling—the internet! With your finger on the pulse of the latest trends and hashtags, you rose to fame and amassed legions of followers who hung onto your every word.

Now, as you sit amongst the clouds, watching over us mortals, we plead for your intercession. Help us navigate the treacherous waters of online interactions, where trolls lurk in the shadows waiting to strike with their venomous words. Guide us in crafting the perfect selfie that will garner thousands of likes and prove to the world that we too are worthy of adoration. And most importantly, remind us to #StayPositive even when the comments section becomes a cesspool of negativity.

Saint Influencer, you were able to convert your followers into disciples by sharing your wisdom about fashion, beauty, and life itself. We ask you to help us do the same within our own spheres of influence. Teach us how to engage our audience without sacrificing our authenticity or selling out to corporate sponsors.

As we continue our journey through this digital age, grant us the ability to maintain our sanity amidst the chaos. Remind us not to take ourselves too seriously and always remember that, at the end of the day, it’s just social media.

Amen.

I have no earthly clue what world economists are living in where the labor market is great.

100% of employed economists writing these reports are employed, so from their perspective everything is great.

I would like to see a list of the medications Trump takes daily. Rumor has it that prescription (and non-prescription) medication flowed freely in his White House. What is the saying? People who smoke glass shouldn’t throw stones?

America will progress like we usually do – kicking and screaming, saying how unfair everything is while we are pulled by the short-hairs into the new century. If America wants to stay relevant, we should be leading industries, not trying to stifle innovation so our increasingly stale auto manufacturers can continue to deliver the same bullshit they’ve been shipping for years. In a “free” market plenty of people would afford to choose Chinese EVs, which are rapidly gaining in quality. Since Detroit can’t compete on a level playing field, they bribe our federal government to implement protective measures against competition and our congress critters eat it right up.

Are there no ethical standards for journalism?

Are you just getting caught up? This ship sadly sailed a while ago. More importantly, Newsweek got you to click, so from their perspective the job is done.

That’s because journalism has more or less lost all semblance of integrity, so it’s turned into “what cheap clickbait can I crap out today to maximize my clicks?” That’s why instead of the hard-hitting investigation and journalism we got with Watergate, we get “TRUMP = LITERAL NAZI, CLICK HERE TO FIND OUT WHY”

TOO BIG TO FAIL

I’m not projecting, I’m trying to get the award.

Didn’t we already try this one?

You know what would solve this problem? Women should be confined to their homes, cooking and cleaning up after their husbands like good little wives. We don’t need women working outside the home, or having any sort of autonomy or independence. They are only good for serving their menfolk and bearing children. And if they want to eat out, they should just go to fast-food chains and order off the dollar menu.

They will also be fighting with:

• Toothpicks
• Plastic straws
• Cotton balls
• Rubber bands
• Feather boas
• Marbles
• Jump ropes
• Paper clips
• Marshmallows
• Bubbles

They may end up going to jail, but they are quickly released, seemingly randomly!

It takes time for your bad consequences to catch up with you. Since the idea is clearly horseshit, I doubt the CEO put a large amount of his money on the line. It will take him some time to piss through the investor money and then you will see a sad “goodbye” message from Rabbit Inc. as they brick the devices on the way out. (since it does nothing without their server)

Why bother? They made a bunch of money with the rug pull and suffered no consequences. Scammers are usually lazy.

Why do people care so much that it’s an app? If it was not an app would everyone have been buying it in droves?

At least part of this is due to a direct quote from the CEO mentioning how they need a VERY bespoke Android version for it to run, which is clearly bullshit because you can run the APK on other devices other than the Rabbit R1 hardware.

Since Rabbit was at least partially funded by the “Cyber Manufacture Co” rug-pull and they suffered NO penalty the CEO has taken this as a sign the market will tolerate his scams. You should view the Rabbit R1 through the lens of it being a former “web3” company and I’m sure the shady legacy remains inside that company.

Since Rabbit sells at $199 and then NO monthly charge, there is basically no viable funding model for this company. Every single request you send the Rabbit costs them money. So, it’s only a matter of time before the R1 itself is “rugged”, whether that’s suddenly requiring a monthly fee OR just shutting down entirely.

My guess would be, like the Humane Pin, they wanted to do a monthly fee, but if they did the R1 would sell even worse (since it’s basically entirely broken out of the box). If these guys make it 3 years I’ll be surprised. And, since the R1 does nothing locally, it turns into a nice paperweight when these guys eventually pull THIS rug.
