Infinite possibilities, and he chooses the one that looks like he's being railed from behind and jerking off two other dudes. I guess I shouldn't kink-shame his "liberty".
Proposed designs for a gold coin featuring President Donald Trump, shared U.S. Mint. In the coin, Trump has a sour look on his face, and is weirdly hunched forward as though he's standing behind a desk with his fists pressing on the surface. His trademark comically-long tie is visible under his trademark ill-fitting suit.

What's bananas about this is that Eisenhower, Reagan, and W. Bush were cheerleaders. Male cheerleaders shouldn't be controversial.

Fascist larvae Charlie Kirk re-posted a video about Rockford, Michigan to make some racist point about small towns. You will not be shocked to learn that both precincts of the City of Rockford went for Harris in 2024.

At the top is a map showing the various precincts - the two precincts that represent Rockford, Michigan are highlighted in pale blue (because the City voted Democratic in the presidential election).

The vast majority of studies show 70%-80% of social media users don't read past the headline. MOREOVER, the vast majority also share articles without even reading them. So, yeah, headlines matter. Studies also show that people prefer shorter headlines (and will ignore longer ones). We're so cooked.
A Bluesky post from @kateconger.com reading: "also, with love, I think people ascribe too much power to headlines. I see this discourse that seems to assume that, if the headline was different, it would somehow be a KO to make the subject of the story act different? but when subjects call to complain about a story, it's almost always a detail."

Any "job" this easy is just as easily-replaced. It's a brittle skillset that leaves you ill-equipped to change.
A screen shot of a post by Mark Cuban reading "If you have zero education, but learn how to ask AI models the right questions , in many jobs you will be able to outperform someone with an advanced degree, but who is unwilling to use Large Language Models. 

Just takes a smartphone, curiosity to experiment and a mindset to learn."
