Every last bone in my body was screaming at me to just get back into my warm bed. Remember I said "I still can't believe what I just saw" a couple of days ago? This is it.
I knew there was a chance that there would be some Aurora but I definitely didn't expect a meteorite to come right through the scene. I couldn't go back to sleep I was so excited.

Pretty much every sponsor and commercial of 60 Minutes will be of a pharma products from companies who stand to lose money when people find a safe alternative for pain, addiction, and anxiety.
@60Minutes couldn't be unbiased even if they wanted to.
🚨🌿 OH, THIS SHOULD BE INTERESTING! 👀🍿
Apparently, 60 Minutes is planning a segment on kratom for November 22.
But I have a few questions BEFORE it airs.
Will they interview longtime kratom consumers who have used the plant responsibly for years?
Will they speak with legitimate small business owners who invest in independent lab testing, proper labeling, and consumer education?
Or will we get another sensationalized story where everything gets thrown into the same category to scare the public? 🤔
Because those distinctions MATTER!
I've been part of this community for over a decade, and I'm beyond tired of watching responsible consumers get ignored while the most extreme stories dominate the conversation.
Addiction and dependence are real concerns and deserve serious discussion. But so do the experiences of people who use kratom responsibly! You cannot claim to educate the public while leaving out an entire side of the conversation.
I'm not asking the media to promote kratom. I'm asking them to REPORT FAIRLY.
Interview scientists. Talk to consumers. Include responsible businesses. Explain the actual products being discussed.
I'll reserve judgment until the episode airs, but I'll absolutely be paying attention. The kratom community deserves journalism, not a predetermined narrative.
🌿💚 Science over stigma. Facts over fear. Regulation over prohibition.

Ryder might've been the happiest dog on the planet this day that he had the whole sand dunes to ourselves.

There’s one argument in the AI copyright debate that I find incredible: “You can’t expect companies to ask millions of creators for permission.”
Why not?
If your business depends on other people’s work, figuring out how to use it legally is part of building that business. It’s not a problem the creators are obliged to solve for you.
We keep hearing that artists need to adapt to technology. Funny how rarely anyone suggests technology should adapt to artists.
Since when did “it’s too inconvenient” become a valid argument against consent?
Even though it usually posts get much less traction at this time, I like to give my night owl friends some art from time to time.
Walmart and Kroger are quietly rolling out an internal store technology across America that could either modernize retail or bankrupt the middle-class family budget.
Starting across thousands of locations heading into 2027, traditional paper price tags are being ripped off grocery shelves and replaced with cloud-connected digital screens. Raise the price of bottled water by 20 percent the second the afternoon temperature hits 90 degrees. Surge the cost of ground beef, milk, and sandwich bread between 5 PM and 6 PM when exhausted commuters are rushing home from work. Drop prices at 10 AM on a Tuesday, then hike them right back up the minute the after-school crowd walks through the sliding doors.
Every price change happens wirelessly in seconds from a central corporate dashboard. No store employee has to touch a single shelf.
Walmart has already signed a massive deployment deal with VusionGroup to wire 2,300 American supercenters with EdgeSense digital shelf rails by 2027. Kroger is expanding its own Microsoft-backed system called EDGE across hundreds of supermarkets. Over 60 million digital price tags are already blinking on US grocery aisles right now.
This is not supply chain inflation. This is Uber-style surge pricing built directly into the shelves where Americans buy baby formula, eggs, and medicine.
Last week I sat down for coffee with a former retail pricing director who spent 14 years building supermarket margin algorithms before leaving the industry. What he shared over the table completely changed how I look at a grocery aisle.
"Retailers just turned static shelves into live stock tickers. The question is not whether grocery chains will use instant price changes, because they already spent billions installing the hardware. The question is how much extra money a family of four will lose every week simply because both parents work until 5 PM and cannot shop during off-peak hours."
Here is how the digital grocery pricing system actually works, how it tracks you in the aisle, and the exact phone settings and checkout playbook you need to beat it.

Gorgeous shot, Ken.
PROOF that my #UNIPARTY thoery is spot on.
Democrats are selling out HARD already.
BREAKING: The Constitutionality Index has now scored every law in the history of the United States. 48,000 laws dating back to 1789.
So far as I'm aware, I'm the first one to ever attempt such a thing.
And we've now ranked every president based on the percentage of laws they enacted were constitutional. The results largely track the overall historical trend: As we move from the founding to the modern era, the percentage of unconstitutional legislation increases.
In fact, 1937 is the tipping point. Pre-FDR's New Deal, every president — Federalist, Whig, Republican, Democrat — scores 98 to 100%. After the New Deal, the average percentage of constitutional laws (by page) drops to 31 percent.
As a result, presidents of the last few decades find themselves at the bottom of the rankings. @JoeBiden is officially the least constitutional president, although Trump isn't far behind. Only Thomas Jefferson scored a perfect 100 percent.
I've also scored congresses, & @SpeakerJohnson's current Congress is, from the perspective of the Constitution, the worst Congress in American history. Constitutional legislation stands at 56.3 by total count, & just 4.3% by total legislative pages.
Another important finding: The largest laws in American history are, every one of them, unconstitutional.
Check it out & let me know what you think. (Links below)
This is getting crazy. I’ve seen about 25 of these posts in the last 12 hours, and every single one of them has millions and millions of views on them. Some of them up to 18 MILLION IMPRESSIONS!!
Is this why I’m getting NONE all of a sudden? This is insane!!
What the fuck is this? Is this CODE for something? Because a lot of people seem to have gotten the same talking points today.
"As lifespans increase, people have to prepare, mentally and financially, to work well into their 70s and 80s," per WSJ
Excluding ODs and other accidental deaths (unintentional injuries) would raise US life expectancy by roughly 1-1.5 years based on cause-elimination studies. That puts the 2024 figure of 79.0 near 80-80.5. Drug ODs alone cut about 0.7-0.9 years in recent peak years; the rest comes from crashes, falls and similar.

Yes. US life expectancy at birth reached a record 79.0 years in 2024 (CDC), up 0.6 from 78.4 in 2023, recovering past the pre-COVID peak after the sharp pandemic drop. Provisional 2025 data shows a record-low death rate, pointing to further gains. Long-term trend is upward overall.

What's wrong with caring about the debt?
Our interest payment alone is over $1 trillion. That's a nation-destroying amount of debt and interest. It's one of the most consequential issues there is.
Anything to raise awareness of it is a good thing to me.
Like the rest of the banking system it is all fake money. Let the Rothschild's central banks take the hit.
