Maybe they're pulling a page from Canadian banks and allow negative amortization or renewing for 30+ years terms to avoid getting hosed from all directions.

RoastBeef posted:https://twitter.com/Ian_Schwartzman/status/1649369107106496512?s=20 But it's not verifying your identity, it's verifying that you paid twitter eight bucks this month. There's literally no checks that you are who you claim to be, how are these people able to move around under their own power without repeatedly falling down?

CaptainRat posted:people are spending $50 a day on weed? Really heavy stoners smoking good stuff? Maybe. Back when I was into that (like 15 years ago now, wow) $50 was on the upper end for an 8th of really good pot. Smoking an 8th a day is doable if you're an absolute wake and bake degenerate who doesn't know sobriety at any part of the day. I mean, that's a gently caress ton of weed, but you can pull it off. But it's by no means normal, and thinking that's what weed costs is either a "how much is a banana" moment or a hell of a tell like an alcoholic thinking everyone spends $25 on a fifth of Jack every day.

I kind of figured, I live in the People's Republic of Drugafornia and mostly take edibles because I'm a big dumb baby and I don't come close to approaching that.

Also, why would I want to verify my identity to Twitter even if that’s what it did? That’s important for, like, governments, major national reporters, and A-list celebrities. 99% of Twitter has no use for it.

At LEAST 2% of twitter wants to scam and impersonate using a checkmark.

If you were spending that much on weed wouldn't you just like grow it for yourself? My state lets you grow your own.. which seems kinda a pain for the occasional user but if your spending $on a daily basis your rear end probably should grow it on your own (void where prohibited)

Just came across two things; 1: https://askdoctorbitcoin.substack.com/p/then-they-fight-you-hold-my-beer Some humor in what they post as fact (all Crypto people hold NFT's lol) but unsurprisingly it's someone who got in on the Bitcoin Ponzi quite early. 2: a crypto person I know posting this openly on Facebook: crypto maximalists posted:is anyone selling large amounts of btc? I'm talking 50 million - 1 billion asap. Nobody money laundering here! edit:3 : lmao. apparently one crypto person proud of being involved in this griftfest: https://facebook.com/defiancemediatv e:, wrong thread although open money laundering is stupid notwithoutmyanus fucked around with this message at 15:15 on Apr 22, 2023 |

Bed bath and beyond has filed for bankruptcy, with no hope of reorganizing - just selling its assets needless to say the bbby subreddit still thinks there’s a hope

He shook up corporate leadership and then cashed out of his bet with a tidy profit. Just lol I did like going to Bed Bath & Beyond when I had just started living on my own but once I had everything I needed I had no reason to ever go back

I found a youtube channel where a gambling addict scratches off lottery tickets he buys in bulk. The comments are full of other gambling addicts riding the contact high and talking about their strategies for bulk scratch offs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5xK2r2Ipgk

That’s assuming the video gets monitized. No idea how gambling features into that but there’s a lot of poo poo that either gets you no ads or on the less lucrative ad tier. Plus there’s some fucky poo poo with needing to net a certain number of views/subs before they pay out.

Yeah, gambling YouTube channels can be super lucrative. Even general Las Vegas tourism YouTubers will say their videos that are just them playing slots for an hour will be their best content in terms of views/revenue.

This is absolutely sad, bad, and depressing but there's a small part of me that heartened by the fact that that is 'only' $300 worth of scratch offs in that video, I contrast that to the gacha game character rolling videos that are "blink and you'll miss that they just flushed $90 USD in less than a minute"
