Remember back when ad's for Nazi stuff started appearing on "X" and advertisers stopped advertising there. And then Elon sued them for "antitrust" or something. Yeah, a Federal Judge dismissed the case with prejudice, meaning it can't be refiled. Yay I guess. TXND - Memorandum Opinion and Order

Dear people, please use #hashtags! I'd like to be able to filter by topic and not just follow specific people who supposedly #match my #interests. Often, one #hashtag is enough to describe the main #message. Or simply add them around the text where it makes sense. Thank you! #newhere 😁🙄
Trump Accidentally Admits to Epic #Iran #Blunder as #War Takes Worse Turn
#Trump’spersonal and ideological shortcomings are working against #America, and what he really revealed with that odd admission of failure. Listen to this episode here. A transcript is here.
Trump’s #war on Iran appears to be a #fiasco, and speaking to reporters, he made a surprising claim:
He insisted no one anticipated that Iran would attack other countries in an effort to widen the war
But this was widely expected, and amusingly, in saying that, Trump revealed that he didn’t anticipate it. That’s a striking admission about his own lack of foresight. Which captures something broader: On many fronts, Trump didn’t prepare for eventualities that most experts fully did anticipate.
As Trump blurts out a striking confession about his Iran fiasco, a foreign policy expert explains why the latest developments in the war are so unnerving—and what to expect next.
Well, they're definitely rare at this point, most stuff is out of my hands, lawyer is working on some stuff, and its really a matter of just waiting at this point.
We were at Sunset Hills flea market selling stuff Sat, mixture of left overs from my storage unit flipping days, Vik's stuff, and some of my stuff I don't want. That didn't go all that well, but that's because I wasn't well prepared, I gathered stuff last minute, and where I thought I had stuff to sell, turns out there really wasn't all that much. Clearly next time I need to be better prepared. I'm also using a we buy books type app to sell off his massive book collection. The good news, they're buying 592 books. The bad news? I have to pack those to ship to them, that's going to be a barrel of laughs. It took about 4 days to scan and key all those in, and I've stopped working to focus on it. Their prices are kinda crap, but they cover shipping, so what do you expect? Also they'll likely reject some of the books, so the promised money will drop, but honestly, shrinking the collection is kinda more important than the money. When I have this batch gone, I use another app, and then when that one is done, I'll use another one, and after that, anything left will be sold at the flea market or dropped into free libraries along my deliver routes. Or maybe sell on WhatNot.
Now with that said, there is a collection I need to figure out what to do with, and that's magazines. Some like Asimov and Analog, relatively easy, if nothing else I'll set up shop on WhatNot and sell them or the flea market, but there's also a lot of pagan magazines like RFD, Green Egg and others, some body art magazines, as well as some gay porn and a few issues of Advocate. Sure, I could just pulp them, but that seems a shame, they do reflect the culture of the time, I kinda feel they should be preserved, but I'm not real interested in doing so.
Using an app to sell a lot of my husband's books, and they don't pay too badly, we're averaging about 30¢ a book plus free shipping (I think). If I were selling them at a garage sale, I'd be asking 50¢ for paperback, $1 for hardback, so the price works and its faster. This is just the downstairs box.
