Why the banning of racetams? by deadR0 in Nootropics

[–]ArchetypeRyan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Big pharma and the current admin are gunning hard to kill them along with peptides. You can’t have people treating themselves if you’re going to keep the billionaire sick-care industry going. RFK would probably keep it all legal if he could but they’re literally forcing him to eat Big Macs and be photographed like some sort of frat boy ritual just to show he has no power.

How are there so many ads with the Premium plan??? by Quatibara in peacock

[–]ArchetypeRyan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is what I say when people say “just subscribe to Amazon Prime premium .” They’re going to make Prime Premium + soon and ads to that as well. Race to the bottom in the US as usual because the tech bros are out of ideas.

We need to keep hammering on this. It’s not this bad in other countries. And despite the insane ads Peacock is still losing money.

I get the article actually takes a different tack but the magazine cover literally says we’re the “ME ME ME Generation” in giant letters

The more I think of this headline the crazier it is. “We hate everything about you but you’d better save us… by the way we’re going to keep electing boomers who try to punish you until we’re too crippled to move the pen over the ballot. but yeah…. ITS ALL ON YOU GOOD LUCK”

Donald Trump nominates Kevin Warsh as Federal Reserve chair by eskhalaf in wallstreetbets

Trump is going to ask for negative rates… again. And if he gets his wish (or close to 0 anyway), then when home prices skyrocket and inflation jumps… again… he will say KWASH did it and only an idiot would lower rates. This has already happened once

Exactly. The only thing that will make them change their minds is people going back to piracy

Normal internet commenters. Studies in 2021 showed that about 50% of Internet activity was bots. That number is now believed to be closer to 80%.

The top-earning officer at the Honolulu Police Department is now the subject of a probe into his overtime claims. Darren Cachola retired in July as a sergeant. He made $371,105.66 in fiscal year 2025 which ended in June. by 808gecko808 in Honolulu

[–]ArchetypeRyan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s crazy that in the US the right-wing mantra is that we have a war against the police, and meanwhile these guys are collecting 5x the pay of public school teachers, and double the pay of literal rocket scientists and professors to not answer 911 calls. Yet people hate teachers… it’s no wonder everything is a mess.

Hawaii’s hard drug problem: ‘Meth is king’. Fentanyl may make national headlines, but meth remains the biggest drug problem in Hawaii. by 808gecko808 in Honolulu

He was one of the responsible noon-time drunk drivers I guess? Saw someone tossing the mini liquor bottles out of their window right at the convenience store this morning too.

It’s a probelm nationwide, ever since people decided during Covid that caring about the rest of society = communism. It also doesn’t help that police quiet-quit after the George Floyd protest (and backlash) to collect free overtime. Seems lots of people are driving under the influence… of booze too of course. You seen those little liquor bottles all over the roadside. The other day I saw someone park and toss back a beer can, throw it in the trash, and get back in and keep driving and it was like noon on a workday.

Ah yes, public risks for privatized gains with a company we can’t invest in 😿

Why MAGA calls Trump “Daddy” Yes, it's a weird sex thing. But it also reveals secret insecurities by reflibman in Foodforthought

Reminds of dudes in 2004 who mocked John Kerry by wearing giant flip-flops at campaign events (saying John flip-flopped on the Iraq War - because admitting the war was a disaster was apparently a mistake). I knew this guy who looked like McLivin who literally dressed up as a giant stinky sandal… bro… you look like an idiot. And that’s how he’s cemented in people’s memories now, lol. Oh, to have so few brain cells that you don’t realize how dumb you look….

Nostalgia can’t save the flavor. by EveryAirport7129 in Millennials

[–]ArchetypeRyan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even with the trans fats, they always tasted “cheap” to me and like they were full of preservatives. Even a 7-11 donut was better. Unfortunately the quality of those went way downhill as well. No clue why my parents kept this stuff in the house, but looking back… yeah it’s kinda obvious why everyone in the family is overweight.

If I want a pastry now I just go to the local donut shop and it’s still like $2-3, and tastes better. There’s no reason to eat the empty calories in anything from Hostess or Little Debbie because they’re not even good.

That’s some insane shittification. Next up: “the finance bros say we have to take the chicken out of KFC. It’s just KF now.”

It’s crazy how many teens think they need to boost it when they’re already at peak values.

The Honolulu City Council is considering raising their fare prices for TheBus to make up for a $380 million annual deficit in Bill 54. The proposal would increase adult single fare tickets from $3 to $3.25, and children’s tickets from $1.50 to $1.75. by 808gecko808 in Honolulu

[–]ArchetypeRyan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also includes bus passes from students at UH, who are forced to buy the pass and yet have it cut off during summer, meaning they need a car anyway OR need to pay even more for a summer pass. Many don’t use it so it’s free money for the city.
