The New York Times@nytimes.com · yesterdayFrom @theathletic.com: LeBron James will make nearly four times as much promoting the Polymarket prediction market as he will from playing basketball. The deal may not break NBA rules, but it raises uncomfortable questions.

It’s bad out there when the food banks start charging fees to get the food that they have! 37 dollars for a basket and 42 dollars if it’s a vegan basket, and the ppl in the TR comments are saying the lines are long and confusing, and that the food is all passed the “best by” date.
Oh no. Now they really about to be mean and talk to me wild when I get overstimulated and confused about what I’m supposed to do next. 😩

What Megyn Kelly hears when she's going home

Meaghan Kelley is not pretty… but in her mind she clearly is. She’s a great example of how “conventional beauty” does not mean you’re actually “beautiful” in the literal sense… because she’s conventionally beautiful as a wealthy, thin, white, blonde… and yet she looks like an actual horse.
When we talk about people not using context clues, my generation can't talk, because I never understood why there was confusion on if Lloyd said fine too or 5'2" when the next words are "BUT I want you." Like which makes more sense in that sentence?
I have no idea what he’s talking about or who he’s talking about… and this is ignorance is very soothing to both my heart and my soul

Sometimes I wish that there were clubs just for ppl who want to dance and its part of the branding so no one can come in assuming they are entitled to your attention then I remember should not feel entitled any way, and entitled men would def prefer coming to places that expressly say “don’t come” 😕
I literally am a dancer… I have been dancing my whole life! I went to the club to DAnCE! 😭
How dare people want to go out and dance, cut loose, have a good time without harassment.

That lady that charged 1k for that lumpy sew in refunded 950 dollars back to the client. She should have given her the whole 1150. You charged her that much money and recorded the whole process for advertisement and therefore leaked her credit card info to your 300k followers online? Girl.
She’s getting ate tf up for this asinine take and honestly it’s what she deserves because… girl… what.
It’s October and so it’s time to bring back Uncle Meyers 🔪
When you ask Chat GPT to tell you what to bet on in Kalshi and you lose all your rent money and can’t pay the light bill that’s twice as high becsude you use Chat GPT I’m gonna laugh
Omg if I told my teen that someone was outsourcing their own hobby to ai I can’t even count how many “holy larping” and “wow fucking posers” would come out of his mouth
Mike Drucker@mikedrucker.bsky.social · 20h agoJust saw someone say their AI runs their fantasy football team and I can’t stop laughing. Like, I’m sure everyone’s doing it or something but it’s very funny to me that pretending to be a team manager was so hard that you needed to pretend to pretend to be a team manager
"I just wanted to see if it could do it!" OK but why. Why are you turning fun into a chore to be solved
Outsourcing your hobby or pasttime is the ultimate sad person behavior. That's a level of depression I can't comprehend. You can't find joy in any damn thing at that point.

To be fair, neither was Ozzy Osborne…definitely wasn’t thinking of the meaning of War Pigs when he was campaigning for an apartheid state that’s actively committed genocide, during his last few years on earth….

i can’t believe my favorite band the Communists with their platinum record We Are A Bunch Of Communists are a bunch of communists
The way some people are more mindful of the tone they take with someone depending on how useful they believe that person to be is so gross.
