Cryptocurrencies (Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, etc.)
Green Dildo Coin, a svelte financial investment for anyone who doesn't care! Anyone getting a piece of the action?? https://www.reuters.com/sports/wnba-sex-toy-incidents-linked-cryptocurrency-group-2025-08-07/ A spokesman for the group behind Green Dildo Coin took credit for the trend in an interview with USA Today, while The Athletic reviewed a livestream of cryptocurrency enthusiasts in which speakers celebrated a sex toy being thrown onto the Los Angeles Sparks' court Tuesday. The group has claimed that their memecoin's goal was to combat a "toxic" environment in the cryptocurrency world and insisted that its members did not "dislike women's sports," though it's unclear why Green Dildo Coin advocates have fixated on the WNBA. Regardless, WNBA players and coaches have widely criticized the trend, citing safety concerns alongside the unneeded ridicule it's brought to the league. There have been six known incidents of neon green sex toys being thrown at WNBA games since July 29, per USA Today.

I think it's probably more the 70+ hour work weeks and rancid professional culture in Japan keeping people away from their families and without free time to nurture a family

Markets still falling like whoa
God I love picking winners and losers. Fact is, most chips aren't made in the US. Most of the silicon in my PC except the 5070ti was diffused in Malaysia or Korea or China and then assembled in another country and then landed in the US. The new unilateral tax from the emperor means COGS skyrocketing across the supply chain.

100% tariff on imported chips - which is to say literally every cutting edge process semiconductor https://www.reuters.com/world/china/trump-says-us-will-levy-100-tariff-some-chip-imports-2025-08-06/ That's gonna leave a mark considering NVDA alone makes up almost 10% of the entire stock market value, and every AI darling is about to see their COGS go up significantly. There are some foundries on US soil to partially mitigate the tariff tax but they aren't producing the quantity or quality of the TSMC native foundries

Tracking Trump Administration and Cabinet picks
that's totally not gonna wreck havok with our ATC systems or anything. It'll all work just fine until there's a stress on the scheduling for flight plans, and then it'll all go to hell. It's such an old and brittle system that has had ZERO downpayments made against their tech debt

Impressive how the local fascists derailed this thread into an immigration discussion instead of focusing on how they're taking active measures to more effectively control mass messaging by removing competing sources of factual information.

July 4th Hill Country Flooding Tragedy
No, the authorities have moved on to more pressing matters of state. Like changing electoral maps mid-cycle. The cleanup is all done and no more disaster relief is needed, right?

2021 - Is inflation finally back in the conversation?
More sly pricing games to drastically increase prices without sticker shocking, like keeping the price the same but making it be per unit instead of per lb. Happy to hear from Chickensandwich why it's actually a good thing though

It's almost like pasteurization is a critical step in food safety or something https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/florida-reports-21-cases-ecoli-infections-linked-raw-milk-2025-08-04/ Aug 4 (Reuters) - The Florida Department of Health said on Monday that there have been 21 cases of Campylobacter and E. coli infections linked to drinking raw milk in the state, including six children under 10. The state health department reported seven hospitalizations linked to the consumption of raw milk containing disease-causing bacteria from a particular farm in Northeast/Central Florida. "Sanitation practices in this farm are of particular concern due to the number of cases," the health department said. The Shiga toxin-producing E. coli and Campylobacter infections can cause diarrhea, vomiting and stomach cramps. In severe cases, they can cause kidney failure, which is of particular concern for children, the health department said. In Florida, raw milk is sold only for non-human consumption as pet or animal food, which limits sanitary regulation efforts. Containers must be clearly labeled that the raw milk is for animal consumption only. Federal health officials have warned against consuming raw milk due to the bird flu outbreak in the United States. U.S. Health Secretary Kennedy has been a proponent of raw milk.- Markets still falling like whoa
Wait, so the July jobs report that added a miniscule 70k jobs is actually good news, based off of April income numbers for only "native born" Americans, however they track that? Lotta qualifiers and mix and match, but I hear they've got new numbers people in charge now anyways- Israel vs everyone war thread
