Passed a sign that said, "Cash NOW 4 Diabetes Supplies," so that's a fun new level of dystopian

Reiterating how much I love the prepper subreddits because one post will be like, "Why flour prices are going up," and the next will, in all seriousness, shout, "HOW TO BUILD A NUCLEAR BUNKER AT HOME." Anything goes!

Today's phone scams aren't pretending I won a trip or inherited some vast sum, but that I might be eligible for "abatement due to financial stress." Probably not indicative of anything great.

To be frank, if an author is using AI to dictate their social media posts, I wonder if they're writing their books.

At an old job, we had a new hire. He and I were taking the same bus home so we sat together, chatting about our significant others. When I rose to exit, he let me know we could never be together because his fiancée was crazy. Still astonished at the audacity.

I've seen five or six similar posts today regarding emails purporting to be from authors, agents, and publishers, along with the four I've received from nonexistent book clubs and the one from the Editorial Director of Penguin. If you get any unsolicited book-related messaging, assume it's a scam.

The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse. I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

I like shopping local but the non-franchise businesses (near me) have weird, inconvenient, hours. If the neighborhood shops could at least coordinate on when they're open, that'd be great.

It's apparently impossible to delete my Lemon8 account without deleting my TikTok? Don't make a Lemon8 account. You'll regret it.

I'm telling the Lemon8 helpbot that I want to delete my Lemon8 account, not my TikTok account, and it's giving detailed instructions for deleting TikTok.

Listen to the street medics for more detailed info but one thing I can tell you for sure for sure is that COLD WATER is your first response to tear gas, pepper spray, and other chemical agents / pepper balls etc. just blast your face (and your whole body ASAP) with as much cold water as you can

If you want to support your indie author friends, requesting their book from your public library is a great way to help them get reviews. Don't forget to tell the librarian if the author happens to live nearby! They often have a section for that.

After months of baseless claims about “extreme levels of fraud” within Social Security, Musk's DOGE has found only 2 likely fraudulent claims out of over 110,000—that makes it a rate of .0018%. So DOGE found virtually no fraud and made an integral American system less efficient.
