Lasso approved
In the season 4 premiere of Ted Lasso, Public Enemy is featured when Ted and Michelle are called to their son Henry's school because a principal believes Henry is writing "disturbing poetry"—which turns out to just be the classic lyrics to Public Enemy's "Black Steel in the Hour of Chaos".

was curious, didn't know religion day was a thing, it is, but not in July World Religion Day: third Sunday in January Religious Freedom Day: January 16 International Day of Tolerance: November 16

The day featured large-scale Christian worship concerts, continuous prayer gatherings, and historical exhibitions highlighting the Bible's cultural influence.Key details of the event include:Host and Activities: The day-long festival was organized in conjunction with the Freedom 250 initiative and was hosted by the Museum of the Bible alongside K-LOVE and Great American Pure Flix.Performances: The program featured major contemporary Christian music artists such as Maverick City, Matthew West, and Jordan Feliz.Programming: It combined patriotic reflections, scripture readings, messages of spiritual renewal, and efforts centered on religious liberty.While the event was a major draw for thousands of participants nationwide, it also sparked counter-programming and debate regarding the separation of church and state from progressive advocacy groups.

depends if you're on the top or bottom part of the k b of a data shows top wage growth at 4% vs. lower at 0.9% in late 2025
The U.S. economy in 2025 and early 2026 has been widely described as "K-shaped," where high-income households and certain sectors (like technology) thrive, while lower- and middle-income households struggle with the compounding effects of inflation. 

The Upper Arm (Wealthy/High-Wage): Benefiting from rising asset values (stocks/housing) and strong income growth, often exceeding 4% annually.
The Lower Arm (Lower/Middle-Wage): Experiencing stalling wage growth—in some cases dropping to 1.5% annually—which fails to keep pace with the cumulative cost-of-living increases. 
L
Wage Growth vs. Inflation (K-Shaped Split)
The "K" is driven by a profound divergence in how wage growth matches the Consumer Price Index (CPI): 
Cumulative Impact: Since 2019, while some average wages have increased by 30%, the overall CPI price level has increased by 26%. However, this aggregate number hides the bifurcation.
Persistent Inflation Pressure: For lower-income earners, wage growth is not keeping up with the rising cost of essentials (food, fuel, utilities).
Diverging Spending: High-income consumers are driving consumption, while low-income consumers are pulling back, resulting in a 2025 consumer spending gap that widened specifically in the latter half of the year.

Key Data Points on the K-Shape
Wage Growth Divergence: In 2025, after-tax wage growth for high-income households was around 4%, while it was just 1.4% to 2% for lower- and middle-income families.
Spending Gap: By October 2025, spending among higher-income households rose 2.7%, while lower-income groups saw spending fall or stagnate at 0.7%.

Inequality Acceleration: The pandemic accelerated this trend (white-collar remote work vs. in-person service job losses), but it has returned in 2025-2026 as inflation-adjusted wage growth for lower earners weakened.

Yes, the super-wealthy heavily skew average income (mean) upward, creating a misleading picture of typical earnings. Because the top 1% hold a massive percentage of total income and wealth, the mean income is often much higher than what the median household earns, as extreme top earners drag the average upward.

Key Data Points
Skewed Mean vs. Median: The average wealth per adult in the US is roughly $565k, while the median is only $112k, showing how the top drags up the mean.
Income Concentration: The top 1% saw their income share rise significantly (e.g., from 12.8% in 1982 to 17.2% by 2009), while the bottom 80% saw their share decrease.
Wealth Inequality: Billionaires in the US added 70% to their wealth during the pandemic, increasing the disparity.
1 vs. 22,000: One billionaire can earn as much as 22,000 Americans earning the median wage combined. 
Why Average Income is Misleading
The average (mean) is calculated by taking the total income of all people and dividing it by the population. If a small group of people (like tech founders or top CEOs) has extremely high income, it pushes that average up, even if the majority of people have stagnant wages. A better measure for the "middle" is the median income, which is not affected by these extreme outliers

messed up that I even had to check
As of Easter Sunday, April 5, 2026, there are no active prediction markets on Polymarket or Kalshi specifically regarding the President "praising Allah" on Easter. Current Easter-related presidential markets focus primarily on official White House engagement and specific remarks during Holy Week events.


Active Easter & POTUS Markets
While your specific scenario isn't currently listed, traders are betting on other aspects of the President's Easter schedule and communications:

White House Social Media Activity: Markets on Polymarket are tracking the total number of posts from the @WhiteHouse account between April 3 and April 10, with odds currently favoring the 160-179 posts bracket at 33-35.5%.

Easter Mentions: On Kalshi, there is a market for whether Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt will mention "Easter" in the next briefing, currently priced at approximately 49% probability.

Easter Lunch Conduct: A resolved market on Polymarket tracked whether the President would dance during the April 1st Easter lunch with faith leaders; it resolved to "No".

Easter Egg Roll: There is an active market for whether the President will dance during the White House Easter Egg Roll scheduled for Monday, April 6, 2026. 


Market Context
The President is reportedly staying in Washington D.C. for the 2026 Easter weekend to manage ongoing geopolitical tensions, including monitoring the Strait of Hormuz. Official communications have focused on religious liberty and policy updates rather than the specific phrasing you mentioned.

The 2019 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 with the 3ZR package is widely considered the ultimate iteration of the C7 generation and the most powerful front-engine production Corvette ever built. Produced only for the 2019 model year, with fewer than 3,000 made, it is a highly sought-after "modern classic". 

Engine and Performance
Engine: 6.2L Supercharged V8 LT5.
Power Output: 755 horsepower and 715 lb-ft of torque.
Performance: 0–60 mph in under 3 seconds (approx. 2.8s).
Top Speed: Over 200 mph (up to 215 mph depending on aero configuration).
Transmission: 7-speed manual with active rev-match or 8-speed automatic with paddle shifters.
Cooling: Features 13 radiators to manage heat, including a larger Eaton supercharger than the Z06. 

The 3ZR Preferred Equipment Group 
The 3ZR package represents the highest trim level for the interior, adding significant luxury and technology features over the standard 1ZR: 
Interior Materials: Napa leather seating surfaces, leather-wrapped steering wheel with carbon fiber rim, and sueded microfiber upper interior trim.
Convenience: Heated and ventilated seats, memory package, and power-adjustable lumbar/wing support.
Audio/Tech: 10-speaker Bose premium audio system, Performance Data Recorder (PDR), navigation, and front curb-view cameras. 
Graham Rahal Performance

Key Options and Packages
ZTK Track Performance Package: Includes a high-mounted, adjustable, chassis-mounted wing, front splitter with endplates for massive downforce (up to 950 lbs), and stiffer suspension tuning with Magnetic Ride Control.

Collectibility and Value
Last of its kind: Final year of the front-engine Corvette before the switch to the mid-engine C8 platform.
Rarity: Only 2,953 total ZR1s were built, with roughly 530 convertibles and the rest coupes.
Market Value: Due to demand, many 3ZR models, especially with the ZTK package, have retained or increased in value, with auction prices sometimes exceeding $180,000–$300,000+ depending on mileage.

every gang needs a wild card
The Moment: During a plan to solve a gas crisis, Charlie declares himself the "wild card" and jumps from a moving van after cutting the brakes, shouting, "WILD CARD, BITCHES!".
The Reaction: The Gang generally dislikes having a wild card, arguing that it brings unnecessary chaos, benefits no one, and that a "maniac" isn't needed.
"He doesn't even get us, man": The group often complains that Charlie doesn't understand their schemes, stating, "He’s listening, he’s not understanding... He doesn’t even get us, man".
The Irony: While the gang views Charlie as a liability, some fans and theories suggest that his chaotic, unexpected actions are sometimes the only reason their plans actually succeed.

“The thing about Stephen Miller is not that he is the brains behind Trumpism. Yes, he is one of the people who conceptualizes the impulses of the Trumpist movement and translates them into policy. But that’s not what’s interesting about Miller. It’s not brains. It’s bile. Miller is a man who is richly endowed with the capacity for hatred. He’s a world-class hater. You can see this just by looking at him because you can see that his hatreds are his spiritual nourishment. He eats his hate. Trump is a world-class hater. But his hatred is only a means to an end, and that end is his own glorification. That’s his spiritual nourishment.”

"Soup sandwich" is a slang term, often military in origin, meaning something disorganized, messy, or poorly executed, evoking the image of liquid soup poured over bread, making a mess. It describes a situation, task, or person that's utterly chaotic, botched, or not performing as expected, like saying something is "as messed up as a soup sandwich" or referring to an incompetent person as a "big soup sandwich".

The "frog in boiling water" is a famous fable and metaphor, not a real scientific experiment, illustrating how creatures (or people) can become accustomed to slowly escalating threats, failing to escape until it's too late, even though a frog thrown directly into boiling water would jump out immediately. It's used to warn about gradual changes in life, relationships, or society, like burnout, climate change, or toxic situations, where slow deterioration goes unnoticed until catastrophic, though real frogs would try to escape the rising heat.
