Punk music is known for its raw, aggressive sound, edgy fashion and mosh pits. It’s also known for being predominantly white, but that's changed a lot in recent years. Resurfaced music from its earliest days underscores that punk has always been influenced and shaped by Black artists as well.

One cool thing about America is this person swooping in with an absolutely flawless $355k MSFT option order at 3:57pm Wednesday, right before market close and earnings, earning a nice ≈$1.2m profit overnight. It'll never be investigated. Congrats to them. 🤷‍♂️ Data from @unusualwhales.bsky.social

Jamie Dimon says the best case scenario for the US is now a recession. Cool, cool. From the best economy in the world to a self-inflicted recession in 4 months. Gotta be some kind of record.

Stop surrendering in your posts. No more “America is done” or “America is cooked” talk. From now on, make it unmistakeable: F* this. Nope. We don’t do this here. Absolutely NOT. Those are the captions. Use them.

Maybe everyone can see it now, but the world's richest people have tanked it all to restock assets and get liquid after years of illegally playing with funny money. They used "the wokeness" as a cudgel and it worked. The next Disney princess WILL be white, as we all eat beans under the highway.

We tried mass tariffs in 1828, and it crashed the economy. We tried again in 1930, and it crashed the economy. Third time’s the charm, I guess.

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory. Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.

Not being allowed to hand water to people in line to vote no matter who they are voting for, while being allowed to hand people million dollar checks to get their vote, is the most American thing ever.

So, according to Republicans, attacking our Capitol & beating police officers with their own shields is “free speech” that gets you pardoned, but signing your name to an op-ed in support of Palestine is “causing a ruckus” that gets you deported. Do I have that just about right?
