Jesus. FTC finds companies are exploiting your data – browsing history, location, buying patterns, even “mouse movements on a webpage” – to gouge you with higher prices shown specifically to you. Just shocking.
Last summer @FTC launched an inquiry into whether people's private data is being used to set the prices they pay & whether firms are charging different people different prices for the same good or service.
Today @FTC published initial findings.

You're watching activists from a Mexican sex workers union storming the judicial building in Mexico City this week, following the attempted murder of a trans woman. Cops just let the alleged perp go. This is how we defend our comrades. No justice. No peace.

Landlords are raising rental listing prices by more than 50% to profit from the fires. Penal Code 396 prohibits price-gouging during a state of emergency.
@bad_tenant has started a doc of the listings:

Hey I’m the mayor of Town That Always Catches On Fire and I decided to defund the fire department because cops REALLY need that money for a tank to use on homeless people. It would suck if a fire broke out, but luckily that never happens here in Town That Always Catches On Fire.

This is a point often missed in gender dysphoria panic. All the outrage is over fewer < 1k people in 5 years! "Only 926 adolescents with a gender-related diagnosis received puberty blockers from 2018 through 2022." They also found *0* children under 12 who received hormones
A medical journal has published the most reliable estimate yet of how many young people receive gender-affirming medications. Fewer than 1 in 1,000 U.S. adolescents received puberty blockers or hormones during a recent five-year period, the study says. apnews.com/article/transgend…

Hmmm...Tesla hiring Associate CAD engineers at a salary of $66,000 a year doesn't sound like bringing in "the top 0.1 percent of engineering talent" like Elon claimed. Sounds like a scam to suppress American wages. Thanks, Grok!

UnitedHealth CEO was killed 30 days ago on Dec 4. Mangione is on trial for that killing.
Since Dec 4, ~5589 Americans have died preventable deaths under America’s exploitative for profit health system. So—when do CEOs who enabled these deaths go on trial?

New York State is trying to make it a special crime to simply remove a flyer from a telephone pole if it has a “pro-Israel” message on it.
If you took down a flyer with a “pro-America” message on it… no crime.
But pro-Israel propaganda? Up to a year in prison and $1000 fine.
We are an occupied nation.
