Shit Lettuce Grift

This is cool. Just another piece of corruption. That Taylor Farms (read: factory farms) which had that contaminated lettuce because they spray shit water on their fields, well, their CEO visited Trump at the WhiteHouse, donated to him, and then suddenly the USA is claiming this shit lettuce was a “false positive”.

The shit this fucking man gets away with on any random Monday would be enough to impeach literally any other president in history.

Every single accusation made by them is a confession. Pedophile ring? Republicans. Stealing elections, Republicans. Corruption at the highest level, Republicans.

They don’t need to be voted out, they all need to be fucking hung for high treason. And, they’re setting the stage for every other country in the world. Canada barely made it out alive, last time. Who fucking knows these days.

It’s Just Rapists and Murders, We Swear

Oh wow. What is that? Those Flock cameras that everyone was warning us about aren’t just being used to track rapists and murders? Colour me not shocked in the least.

Nearly every expert ever told us that they would be used beyond the confines of the law to track our every move. Innocent people. And, there’s thousands of examples of this happening. Turns out it’s not the conspiracy that all these ignorant people claimed it was. Turns out those Billionaires lied to us. Again.

So, while we’re on the topic of conspiracies that are totally fucking true, let’s talk about women’s rights, more specifically period tracker apps. When a woman has irregularities in her period it can trigger that she’s pregnant. But, she doesn’t want anyone to know. Except, now big brother knows. And, that data is correlated back to her identity because of course it is – because these apps, even if you don’t use your real email address, or name, or other info, still sends your personal info back to the app developer (And god only knows who else), which can be sold.

Things like your Google Play or Apple ID identify you, even if you sign up with bullshit. Then, they’ve got you. Look, Jane is preggos. Better track her to see if she leaves the state to get an abortion because we outlawed that in her home state. And, just like that they type your licence plate into a system and get all the hits of when it crossed paths with a Flock Camera.

And, wouldn’t you know it, there’s a Flock Camera positioned outside of every Planned Parenthood and doctors office, carpet bombed across every city, and at every highway on and off ramp. You’re tracked. Every single place you go.

Don’t believe me? Read the article below from the ACLU.

This shit is criminal. It’s a complete and gross invasion into our privacy. Don’t worry, Billionaires are being paid literally billions of dollars of YOUR money to do this to you. How? It’s municipalities which pay to have these cameras installed. That money comes from your taxes. You’re paying, bitch. And, when someone cuts one of these things down (as they should), you’re paying to have it replaced.

Congratulations, you’ve sold your privacy, yet again.

Insider Trading as a Service (ITaaS)

Donald Trump’s “Truth Social” (Ya, I know, fucking hilarious), just released their latest “service”. It’s called “Truth API”. So, what does it do? Well, for a hefty fee, you can buy “access” to the 10 most influential people on the platform and see their “truths” before anyone else. There’s no exact timeline, but effectively you would be able to get information before the general public.

Seeing as Trump’s “Truths” almost always move global markets, you can then hedge bets before the general public does on which way the market will go based on his bullshit.

There ya go. He’s literally selling insider trading access.

And you know what’s going to be done about it? Absolutely fucking nothing. Once again, hard right politics just break all the rules with impunity while left wing parties just sit there and pen condolence letters for dead hard right pieces of shit that break all the rules. Seriously. It’s absolutely fucking baffling.

Stop for a second and think. When you see children today, are they typically on a tablet or phone, endlessly scrolling, or watching some bullshit they’re so locked in on that the moment you remove it from their hands they immediately have a full blow meltdown? How many are just being children, enjoying life, playing, learning, moving, and interacting with others? Very few.

McDonalds is the perfect example. This is the “Play Place” I remember as a child. And, when McDonalds wasn’t enough, I would BEG my parents to take me to this one sporting goods store that had an absolutely massive jungle gym 10x the side of what you see here. I’d be in there for hours, making friends, playing tag, developing motor skills, and keeping active.

And, I had access to technology – something a lot of kids my age didn’t have. There wasn’t just a computer in the house (which was rare at the time), but multiple computers. I may have even had one in my room at that time! But, my time on a computer was limited, because I was more interested in digging holes in the garden, or playing road hockey, or being out with my friends. I came home with scraped knees, and the occasional chipped tooth.

My front tooth is still chipped, repaired, and if you look hard enough, can still see the crack. Oh well.

And now? God forbid kids ride their bikes on the road, or are out running through people’s backyards. We placate these little minds with ads, propaganda, and addictive games. McDonalds just perpetuates this problem with stuffing a couple shitty tablets on a wall.

We’re fucked.

FIFA Fucked You.

Have a fucking backbone.

This world cup stuff is disgusting. It’s one of the most corrupt organizations in the world and is directly linked to slave labour, crimes against humanity, and absolutely inhumane treatment of the most vulnerable. Hundreds of billions of dollars are being spent on this shit, some of which is being spent to hide the homeless and poverty away from the world.

Remember that time Brazil evicted 170,000 people from their slums just so they bulldoze it all to build some massive stadium, all while brutalizing and murdering a ton of the most vulnerable? Then erected huge walls so people couldn’t see the slums right beside that multi-billion dollar stadium they erected? Or how they have taken endless bribes from countries like Qatar and Saudi Arabia (who are definitely known for their ethical treatment of their citizens)? Or sending the World Cup to Russia, a terrorist state? Nice one! We love this!

Then, on Canada Day, the streets were overrun with Portugal fans crying and fawning over Ronaldo? Why? What the fuck is wrong with these people? You’re crying over a guy who couldn’t give a rats ass about you, and actively employs multiple body guards to explicitly keep you as far away from him as possible. And you’re fawning over this piece of shit? Get a fucking grip on life and stop putting these false idols on pedestals. Ronaldo raped a woman in 2009 then paid her off $532,000 to shut up. How about that time he did a little tax evasion, then because he’s a rich prick, was able to skip his 2 year prison sentence, and just quietly paid his $31,000,000 fine. The guy is worth $2,000,000,000, and you think he’s some god? Don’t ever complain about the cost of housing, or groceries, or life when you idolize and cry over some rapist billionaire. It’s fucking sickening.

Do we want to talk about the time Ronaldo was pissed off so he grabbed a phone out of an autistic boy’s hands and smashed it as he was walking back to his locker room? Great dude! You’re idolizing a guy who gets paid $200m USD a year from the Saudis and acts as a spokesperson for their great country, completely glossing over the endless list of human rights violations. Cool! Let’s not forget about him shilling crypto and getting hit with a $1B lawsuit after he scammed a bunch of people with worthless NFTs.

Back to FIFA. Toronto was supposed to pay $380 MILLION dollars for this shit, but that’s never accurate. Turns out it was more like $1.06 Billion, which works out to be $82 Million/game played here. For what? Traffic from hell? The downtown core locked up for a month straight? All so you can celebrate corruption on the largest scale? Don’t even start to bitch about property taxes and spending money to care for those in poverty while you support this shit. Did I mention that the City of Toronto was forced to close warming centers for the homeless because FIFA demanded these spaces for their “operations” over the winter, but then never used them? Or, how they tried to ban empty water bottles so you were forced to pay $8 for some shitty bottled water that’s imported when we have one of the cleanest and most abundant sources of fresh water on the planet just a couple hundred meters away from the fucking stadium? You can’t even make this nonsense up.

Did you know that there’s been a 13 fold surge in online abuse and racist vitriol during this 2026 World Cup? And there’s absolutely no safeguards in place to stop it? No consequences? Nobody gives a single fuck about that? They’ve identified over 100 cases of racist shit so vile that it passes the threshold for hate crimes at a legal level, but chose not to do anything about it? Go FIFA!

FIFA didn’t pay a dime for any of this. YOU did. FIFA just said “we’re coming and our dick is so big and glorious you’re going to get on your knees and suck it”. And, like the good little consumers we are, we not only sucked them off to completion, but paid handsomely to do so.

So, when you’ve paid your $2000 for a nosebleed ticket to support this shit, don’t even start complaining about the cost of living. Or cry about a damn thing when it comes to your taxes. You’re a fucking hypocrite, and an ignorant one at that.

Paper Straws

I have a problem. I’m kind of addicted to Wendy’s Jr cheeseburgers. I get one almost once a week because I’m a fat kid with no self control. Yesterday I was seriously craving a Coke, and decided to change things up a bit. Instead of the usual 2 x Jr Cheeseburgers, I got a “Combo 1 : Regular cheeseburgers w/fries & a drink”.

So, I pull up to the drive thru and it goes like this…
“Can I get a #1 with a Coke please”
“Medium, or a large?”
“What does it come with”
“Small”
“Well, that’s what I want then”

As I pull up to the window a new conversation happens…
“Hi, so, I ordered a #1 with a coke, then you asked if that would be a medium or large, you never gave me the option for small, nor told me that’s what it comes with. Why?”
“Did you want a medium or large”
“No, I wanted what I ordered, a #1 with a coke”
“Yes, but do you want a medium or large combo”
“I want what it comes with. Exactly what I ordered”
“You can make it a medium or large”
“Why are you being deceptive?”
“I’m not”
“You are. You insinuated that it’s a medium, and I can upside to a large. Either way, I’m paying more”
“If you wanted a large you could have upsized to it”
“I wanted what I ordered, why is this so difficult?”
“Then you want a medium?”
“I just wanted what it came with. I didn’t ask for more. I asked for the combo. I didn’t ask to make it larger”
“That’s why I offered you a medium or large”

Clearly this person has absolutely zero critical thinking skills, or is so brainwashed with her corporate upselling message she can’t understand why I’m even the slightest bit frustrated right now. If anything, she’s probably thinking I clearly don’t understand.

I drive away thinking “This is where we’re at. Where I’m the asshole for asking for what I want, and getting frustrated when I don’t automatically allow myself to get upsold by default”. It’s just extract more and more money however possible, and should I say a damn thing about it, I’m the problem. How the fuck did the consumer become the asshole here?

And then I open the bag.

Paper fucking straw. Great. I can’t wait to suck up little bits of paper pulp with my Coke. But, I’m saving the environment, so I guess I need to make some sacrifices to keep this world beautiful for the next generation. I remove the additional paper on my straw and go to slide it into my cup, which is made of plastic, with a plastic lid.

Wait a second. Wendy’s used to use paper cups. For decades, those yellow paper cups. Now they’re clear plastic cups, with lids that are thicker plastic than they used to be. They’re not bio-degradable. In fact, there’s considerably more plastic in this cup & straw now than there was with a plastic straw and a paper cup. What the fuck is going on here.

Then I thought about something else. Taylor Swift, everyone’s princess and golden girl who can do no wrong in this world. She’s an inspiration to girls everywhere. So inspiring that she takes a private jet almost everywhere she travels. In fact, she takes approximately 170 private flights a year, and those flights average 80 minutes in length. Based on the environmental impact of jet fuel being burned at an average cruising altitude, she’s burning approximately the equivalent of 34,000,000 plastic straws per flight. That seems like a lot. I wonder how long it would take me to use up 34 million plastic straws.

93,150 years. 93 thousand fucking years of using a plastic straw every single day. That’s what she’s burning each time her little entitled ass steps on a private jet.

Yup. I’m the asshole. I’m sorry. I ruined the environment. It’s all my fault, and definitely all other consumers. It’s absolutely not the irresponsible corporations and manufacturing. It’s definitely not entitled celebrities and billionaires spewing whatever toxic sludge they want into the air and waterways.

I’m sorry everyone. I shouldn’t have ordered that cheeseburger combo.

Elephants Bag A Trophy Big Game Hunter.

https://www.dailymail.com/news/article-15761595/Millionaire-US-big-game-hunter-75-trampled-death-five-elephants-hunting-antelope-central-Africa.html

Millionaire US big game hunter, 75, is trampled to death by five elephants in central Africa.

Californian vineyard owner Ernie Dosio, 75 – who owns a vast collection of exotic animal heads in trophy rooms at home – was trampled to death. He was being guided by a professional hunter in the thick forest of Gabon on a £30,000 ($40,000) stalk for a shot at the elusive yellow-backed duiker. Over the decades, he has hunted elephants, leopard, rhino, buffalo and lion across Africa and back home in the US, he has hunted almost every species of wild deer.

But the highly respected hunter’s luck ran out last Friday while in the Lope-Okanda rainforest when his hunt stumbled into five female elephants with a calf. African elephants are the largest land mammals and females can stand 12ft tall at the shoulder, weigh nearly four tons and run at speeds of up to 25mph.

The startled elephant herd immediately charged Mr Dosio and his professional hunter. The elephants were so well hidden in the dense undergrowth that they appeared ‘as if from nowhere,’ and the professional with the high-powered rifle was just flung aside.

Didn’t have Elephants on my 2026 bingo card, along with the TEMU submarine and random pissed off Italian guy from previous years.

Coachella is MAGA

Just another great example of dumb fucking people spending WAY too much money on a bullshit festival so they can take Instagram photos which mean absolutely nothing, all while funding billionaires who then donate that money to fascists so they can continue making billions without paying taxes. That’s the long and short of it, anyways.

Here is how it works: Coachella is run by Anschutz Entertainment Group, a subsidiary of The Anschutz Corporation, which is owned by right-wing billionaire Philip Anschutz. Money from The Anschutz Corporation’s treasury, which includes the profits from Coachella, is funneled directly to right-wing organizations that support key politicians funding ICE, undermining LGBTQ rights, and restricting abortion.

Republican governors have been signing legislation and taking other action to require local law enforcement to assist in ICE deportation raids. This has been a key lever to accelerate ICE’s crackdown.

The Anschutz Corporation donated $125,000 to the Republican Governors Association (RGA) on April 3, 2025.

The company also donated $125,000 to the RGA in 2024, $100,000 in 2023, and $100,000 in 2022. (The RGA, which is organized as a 527 organization, has not yet had to disclose any 2026 donations.) This money is used to ensure as many Republicans as possible are elected. Over the same time period, the Anschutz Corporation has not donated any money to the Democratic Governors Association.

The Anschutz Corporation donated $100,000 to the Republican Attorneys General Association (RAGA) on April 1, 2025. This is the company’s first donation to RAGA since 2022, when it donated $125,000. Democratic attorneys general are fighting the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown in court, but The Anschutz Corporation has not donated any funds to the Democratic Attorneys General Association.

The Republican-controlled Congress has provided tens of billions of dollars in additional funding for ICE. The Anschutz Corporation donated $250,000 to the Senate Leadership Fund (SLF), a Super PAC devoted to maintaining Republican control of the Senate, on April 3, 2025. The company donated $500,000 to the SLF in 2024 and $500,000 in 2023. In 2023 and 2024, The Anschutz Corporation donated a combined $375,000 to the Congressional Leadership Fund (CLF), the Super PAC supporting Republicans in the House. If Republicans lose control of either the House or the Senate, it will be much more difficult for the Trump administration to fund its immigration crackdown. The Anschutz Corporation has not donated any money to Super PACs supporting the election of Democrats.

Candidates and officials who are supported by RGA, RAGA, SLF, and CLF have also worked to undermine other issues important to Carpenter, including LGBTQ rights. Republican governors signed dozens of anti-LGBTQ laws last year, Republican attorneys general are filing lawsuits to restrict LGBTQ rights, and Republicans in Congress are pushing anti-LGBTQ legislation.

All this is basically happening, all while people like Sabrina Carpenter and Justin Beiber who have been outspoken against Republicans and ICE are more than happy to accept a payday from Coachella, so I guess their wallets are in fact more important than their morals and ethics. Add to that list Karly Hartzman of Wednesday (an indie band), who closed their 2026 Coachella set by declaring, “Fuck ICE’ and free Palestine.” David Byrne, the lead singer of Talking Heads, projected images of anti-ICE protests as he performed the song, “Life During Wartime”. All of these artists, and others who have made similar statements, are now generating profits for Anschutz, which he is using to support MAGA politicians. Perhaps they just didn’t know? Or, they just talk out of both sides of their mouths. Neither would surprise me – but, considering the history and multiple reports about The Anschutz Corporation, at this point I’d just call them ignorant if they aren’t aware.

In 2022, Popular Information reported on The Anschutz Corporation’s support of RAGA in light of the group’s efforts to restrict abortion rights. Representatives of The Anschutz Corporation told Popular Information the donations should not be considered an endorsement of the organization’s views on any issue. “Mr. Anschutz makes contributions to numerous organizations, usually for specific reasons,” a spokesperson said. “He does not review or support each of the positions taken by such organizations.”

In 2017, Anschutz faced scrutiny after his foundation donated to anti-LGBTQ groups, including the Alliance Defending Freedom and the Family Research Council. Anschutz claims he doesn’t fund these groups anymore, which is just more billionaire bullshit because he just continues to support groups like the RGA and RAGA, which support politicians who are restricting LGBTQ rights.

Enjoy your shitty festival, you basic fucks.
