As we approach the final day of Chopped Tees, I wanted an opportunity to say my piece. This will be a long thread, but it’s dedicated to people who seek truthful information. Apologies in advance. While I constantly feel as if I’ve given up, and have failed, there is a lot more to it 1/
After nearly a year of assessing the future of Chopped Tees, I’ve made the difficult decision to officially close the brand. The business became harder to operate as global trade policy turned into a moving target—tariffs announced, delayed, walked back, then threatened again.
Now that I have a son and a daughter, some movies just hit different

Hey @allmykidshavepaws.bsky.social while I appreciate trying to call out people when they do wrong, you give social justice warriors the bad name they have because of your lack of effort verifying. You should be ashamed of yourself and realise you are part of the problem the world is experiencing
This is some of the abuse I've had this evening for the crime of having the same name as someone else. I thought this place was supposed to be better than Twitter. Post's still up nearly 4 hours later and still no apology for the mistaken identity. Not the only person who's tagged me on this either
Me cleaning up shit this wrestlemania weekend, seems like I have something in common with WWE PR
So the Wrestlemania weekend build has been “WWE Superstars ❤️ Trump” eh? I’m spending this time with my 1 week old and 2 year old, aka the next generation of this earth, because the current generation is so cooked
The Australian Dollar continues to get crushed against every currency. I’d say we’ve got until midnight eastern before Chopped Tees is cooked
(Bloomberg) - JPMorgan Chase & Co. said it now expects the US economy to fall into recession this year after accounting for the likely impact of tariffs announced this week by the Trump administration. $JPM
As a truly global company, Chopped Tees can’t operate in a global recession. We are knocking on the door of this reality.
Due to the collapse of the Australian dollar, we have suspended our Australia and New Zealand store until further notice We apologise for the inconvenience
We have reached max pain for both equities and Bitcoin. A good time to move your increasingly worthless fiat currency into something that will hedge against shitty inflation If you’ve had your local currency in a bank account, it’s lost 50% of its value over the past 3 years
Of course I'm stupidly writing this when everything is hot right now and that means it's not the best time for new people to jump in. Or is it? Probably not
I’m a big fan of @atrupar.com, but this is a big miss. I urge people to study Bitcoin.
New in PN: Trump’s "Crypto Reserve" is a world historical grift "It’s a kind of farm subsidy, but for billionaires making digital magic beans instead of food."
I am beyond disgusted with the vile display in the Oval Office today. I cannot express how I feel about bringing children into such a hateful world. I must invest in their future at all costs.

#AEWGrandslam was pretty good, but the Brisbane Entertainment Centre is a fucking shithole
Ok night owls, I’m about to head to #AEWGrandSlam I won’t post spoilers, but instead just dumb Australian things instead like Tony Khan welcoming all the ‘Blokes and Sheilas’ to the show
Tanga Loa being on the cover of WWE 2k25 was not on my bingo card this year
And this my friends, is why you don’t fuck around with garbage
