If you like light to medium roasts you can easily roast your own at home with a decent air popper. A decent one will set you back about $25 if you don't bargain-hunt. I paid $18 for mine.
You can get good green coffee for around $5 - $12 a pound. You can roast a pound in about an hour. If you don't drink gallons a day it saves a lot of money.
Idk man. In 2020, when COVID tore through like a drunk bull in Sunday school, everything went to hell. Jobs vanished, mom-and-pop shops folded, and the country barely held on. Meanwhile, billionaires made off with over $2 trillion. That mess didn’t just hurt—it proved crisis could be profitable. They saw it, they learned from it, and now they’re running it back.
Now it’s 2025. The stock market’s flailing, tariffs are snapping down like rat traps, and small businesses are getting crushed. The big boys? They’re riding it out, bleeding slowly, waiting to buy what’s left. Demand’s still there—just fewer people at the table.
This isn’t a natural market movement—it’s a fire sale masked as patriotism. They gut the economy, wait for the fallout, and scoop it all up for cheap.
And politics? It ain’t chaos—it’s choreography. They back the guy who’ll carry the weight, take the heat, and do what needs doing. In return, when it’s time to flip the switch, he gets to play the hero. Jobs come back, markets rise, and he soaks in the glory. Power stays right where it was.
The courts? Shit, they’re being ignored. Tariffs are flying blind. And now we’re eyeing up Greenland and Canada and pushing for peace in Ukraine on the condition we get what’s under the dirt: lithium, titanium, and rare earths. This ain’t diplomacy—it’s shopping.
Maybe I’m crazy. I’m not into conspiracies, but this thing walks like a duck, shits like a duck, and sure as fuck ain’t a swan. And guys like Bill Ackman? They’re not scared. They’re waiting. This isn’t the crash—it’s the clearance aisle.
Like I said in the beginning IDK. I hope I am wrong but I think shit like this article is just for show and to make us say shit like "Look how stupid Trump is, he is pissing off the money" when it's calculated and planned.
"Oh no, why would he do that? Oh golly we can't handle all the new trade deals coming our way, it's so burdensome stop Oh geeze oh golly." - Xi Jinping on his way to the bank
Is this your kid? No, is this your kid? No, is this your kid? No, how about this kid? No, is this your kid? No, surely this is your kid? No, is it this kid? No, maybe this is your kid? No, is this your kid?
Call a press conference, build up to announcing the 9000% tariff but then end the conference promising to come back next week and make the announcement.
Man, I don't normally get choked up about celebrities but some of Val Kilmer's movies got me through a pretty dark time in the late 90s. I was 8 when Willow came out, we wore that VHS out. In 2000 I lived in the boonies taking care of an indoor broccoli growing operation in Colorado. The only thing I had was 20 or so books, a box of VHS tapes, and a 13" TV VCR combo. I must have watched Tombstone and The Saint 10000 times.
I am still friends with the guy who worked with me and anytime he asks me what happened to or where is so and so I 100% answer with "He ran off to live in the forest, in the nude."
Whaaaaaaaaaaaat noooooooooooo, that can't be right. Who other than every single person alive saw that coming?
Hopefully, they will televise it and trump will say "You're fired" right before they pull the switch. That would be on par with the shitshow circus we live in these days.
If you eat 75 soft-boiled eggs 4 times a day and take 15 Start Packs washed down with some Tangy Tangerine 2.0 you will cure your halitosis of the scalp and it can even cure kidney beans. Remember it's not cancer, it's a vitamin deficiency.
Unfortunately, it isn't. I sat in a conference hall a few weeks ago and listened to an NP talk about his health clinic and how difficult it was to find collaborating physicians because he prescribes Ivermectin. He then went on to claim Merck gave him an award for prescribing the most Ivermectin in his state.
It's wild watching this shit, but don't worry the same group says JAMA and NEJM are no longer legitimate but shit like Critical Health News is. Just don't talk about how the guy running CHN is a veterinarian playing people doctor.
