Bite me, Musk.

NOTE: NO BIO, NO POSTS = INSTANT BLOCK

Progressive political commentator (print, radio, podcasts) for years. I post a lot: breaking news + legit info you can use, prone to snark. My mini Australian Labradoodle, Hamilton, has trained me well.

Now where's my trough of wine? 🍷🇨🇦

🚨Um... New app. Turn someone in, innocent or not, get bitcoin.

I won't link.

"ICERAID is a GovFi protocol that delegates intelligence gathering and validation tasks to citizens that would otherwise be undertaken by law enforcement agencies. ICERAID rewards citizens for capturing, uploading and validating photographic evidence of 8 categories of suspected criminal activity. The more images and locations you upload and validate, the more ICERAID you earn."

Meanwhile the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite index was set to confirm it was in a bear market on Friday, down more than 20% from a recent record high.” #TrumpCrash #TrumpTax #tariffs
