This BS with the minimum wage is a striking example of how our system is designed for the wealthy.

The federal min wage hasn’t been increased since 2010. There were plenty of years, where there was nominally full employment where the minimum wage could have been increased. Now that we’re in a pandemic and an economic downturn, made very severe due to Republican led austerity, the GOP and a few “moderate” Democrat say bows not the time to raise the minimum wage.

As far as I’m concerned, capital got a free decade of no minimum wage hikes. Also, this down economy hasn’t caused housing or healthcare or education or groceries to cost any less. It’s absurd that the lowest wage workers have to keep suffering because there’s a downturn. The vast majority of Americans don’t get to stop paying bills during a down turn. Capital should not keep on getting a discounted minimum wage.
 
People doing all these shenanigans but no one is focusing on what is really important in regardless to social media reforms

And that is getting Boosie's original IG unlocked.
:lol:
Speaking of rappers on IG, I'm still salty over Big Krit's manager scamming me after getting Krit his artist name on IG.
I was supposed to get a framed album artwork signed by Big Krit. He told me discussed it with Krit and agreed on my reward but the manager just went ghost after I granted Krit access to the username. I don't believe Krit signed off on this scam, he doesn't seem like that kind of person so I assume the manager is just a scumbag.

Clowns like Manchin saying that West VAers are cool with $11 per hour noting how poor that state is.
 
More rejections...


Trump resigns from Actors Guild with snarky letter after it threatened to expel him over Capitol riot: Ex-President says 'Who Cares!' about expulsion threats before touting his achievements on the big AND small screen

  • The former president said 'who cares' after the union's threat to expel him
  • He then listed off his on screen credits including on Home Alone 2 and Zoolander
  • He also went on to boast about 'greatly helping' the 'dying' cable news platforms, 'creating thousands of jobs at networks such as MSDNC and Fake News CNN'
  • The union had accused him of violating the union's 'sacred values of democracy, truth and respect' in the wake of the deadly siege in DC on January 6
  • Its board voted 'overwhelmingly' that he violated membership guidelines and a disciplinary hearing was scheduled for next week on the matter
  • Commenting on Trump's letter SAG-AFTRA said: 'Thank you'

Donald Trump has resigned from the Screen Actors Guild ahead of a disciplinary meeting over his membership in the wake of the Capitol riot.

In a letter obtained by Fox News the former president writes 'who cares' at the union's threat to expel him before listing off his on screen credits including on Home Alone 2, Zoolander and on The Apprentice.

Trump, who holds a pension with the Screen Actors Guild - American Federation of Television and Radio Artists, wrote: 'I write to you today regarding the so-called Disciplinary Committee hearing aimed at revoking my union membership. Who cares!'


 
Trump is so frustrated by his Twitter ban that's he's writing out insults and asking aides to tweet them, report says

  • Trump, barred from Twitter, is writing down "insults and observations," The Daily Beast reported.
  • He "has resorted to suggesting put-downs for others to use or post to their own Twitter," it said.
  • Trump is focusing on opponents in the GOP as he tries to retain his hold over the party.

Former President Donald Trump is so frustrated by being barred from Twitter that he's writing down insults and trying to get aides to post those messages from their own accounts, The Daily Beast reported this week.
Sources close to Trump told the publication that he saw the political fate of Rep. Liz Cheney, the third-most-powerful Republican in Congress, as key to his hold over the GOP.
Cheney was one of 10 Republicans who voted to impeach Trump over the Capitol riot on January 6.
Trump was deprived of his most important tool for rallying supporters and attacking opponents when Twitter permanently suspended him from its platform in the wake of the insurrection.

Trump has instead "written out insults and observations, several of them about Cheney," and, unable to tweet them himself, "has resorted to suggesting put-downs for others to use or post to their own Twitter," the Daily Beast report said, paraphrasing a source.
Trump has said he owed his election to his ability to communicate directly with voters via Twitter. As president, he would often tweet from early in the morning to late at night, stirring conflict with critics and opponents and praising allies and supporters.

Before the ban, Twitter had restricted or labeled as misleading dozens of Trump's tweets as he spread the conspiracy theory that the 2020 election was stolen from him.

In recent weeks, a rift in the Republican Party has widened between lawmakers who want to rid it of Trump's influence in the wake of the Capitol riot and others who have steadfastly defended him.
A group of Trump loyalists moved to remove Cheney from her position as the chair of the House Republican Conference following her impeachment vote. But in a closed-door GOP meeting on Wednesday, the bid failed.
Trump has supported Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, who Democrats have said should be expelled from Congress after news reports detailed her comments expressing support for violence against Democrats and for a range of right-wing conspiracy theories.
At the GOP meeting on Wednesday, several House Republicans reportedly gave Greene a standing ovation after she defended herself.

 
Clowns like Manchin saying that West VAers are cool with $11 per hour noting how poor that state is.

No discussion about the minimum wage is complete without someone, claiming to speak for everyone who lives in a red State, claiming that 31k a year is a princely sum outside of major cities.

Sure, cost of housing varies wildly but otherwise, everything else costs about the same no matter where you live. If you’re making 22k a year, you’re poor no matter where you are.

Rookie moves b, always get the payment first
 
Larry Summers clown *** ready wrote an Op-ed in the Washington Post admitting that he was wrong in 2009 when he sent Obama a long as letter trying to convince his people that his request for a trillion-plus stimulus was too large. In hindsight, the stimulus should have been bigger

But he is now saying Biden stimulus deal right now is too large

I really hate these clowns coming back around trying to peddle the same schtick and sabotage another Dem president.

Miss the country with this ****
 
Rookie moves b, always get the payment first
Normally that's my demand but since it had little value to individuals other than Krit, I decided I'd set aside my normal standards. I assumed they presumably wouldn't have trusted me if I didn't go first, at least I certainly wouldn't if I was the manager.

I always set out the following guidelines for deals:
- Show proof of funds on mobile to know the username (I censor them publicly)
- If you lowball and don't quickly rectify with a serious offer, you're swiftly getting blocked. Lowballers disgust me.
- Buyer pays up first, only exceptions for repeat buyers I'm on good terms with
- Payment has to be in Bitcoin or Paypal, preferably BTC, and I only send the account info after receiving proof on mobile of the payment
Buyers can also request a middleman if for some reason they don't trust me but they pay the middleman's fee.

I have a rock solid reputation from back in 2014-2016 so people always go first to me. When you're just starting out, nobody's going to pay first if you have no reputable vouches for your trustworthiness.

I've only gotten scammed twice in all those years. Once for $50 when I first started and then Krit's manager.
There was this one time where a buyer was clearly trying to scam me but I reverse scammed him. :lol:
I was selling the Kik username D5 and expected offers around $250-300 but this guy approached me with a $600 offer and he'd pay up first with Paypal. Obviously he was later going to file an 'unauthorized access' chargeback claim to get Paypal to refund his money but I made sure to take screenshots and meticulously guide him into saying things that completely undermined such a chargeback claim.

A couple days later, I unsurprisingly got the notification that he filed a chargeback claim with Paypal, trying to get his $600 back. I swiftly won the dispute so instead of scamming me, that idiot paid $600 for a username he'd be lucky to get $300 for :lol:

And to give you an idea of how far some people are willing to go get a fancy rare username, it's not unusual that I get offers like this for my Twitch username, which I will continue to decline to honor my agreement with Twitch. Usernames under 4 characters normally aren't allowed and the only other username with just numbers under 4 characters is 007, which is owned by an admin. So it's by far the rarest account not owned by Twitch administrators.
Its value is more in the $3500-4000 range though. I'm on good terms with the guy below and he was serious. Earlier this week he tried to offer $2500 Bitcoin + an Xbox Gamertag worth around $800-1000 for it.
