Something different today from the great political cartoonist Clay Jones.
An actual graph from the news, no cartoon or dialogue, just a comment.
Sorry, purists, it's X, but Clay resists posting to Fediverse, Mastodon, etc. (old habits?)

Anyway....

This makes me sick, I was actually in discussion with her and reported hee videos as scam and she was so aggressive calling me names for saying that most of these actions are scam and money never end up in the hands of those in need. Wasn't surprised to see it on the news. I hope she goes to jail for that.

The videos and the 3 accounts she was using for these fundraiser have all been deleted.

A Warning about the Bradford Exchange and its "Roach Motel" business model

The packages from the Bradford Exchange, an American company that's been selling collectibles, trinkets and jewelry since the 1970s, had been coming to his St. John's home since July.

"I think this is outrageous. That shouldn't be. They shouldn't be allowed to get away with that sort of a thing," Walker, 92, said in a recent interview at his St. John's home.

Walker said he didn't knowingly sign up for any subscription program, nor does he want the coins he received. But despite writing to the company to cancel, Walker continued to be charged.

Lloyd Walker of St. John's says he was charged nearly $100 every time a Bradford Exchange coin comes in the mail. Despite writing the company, the charges continued until late December.

I really hate AliExpress these days.

They used to be a good place to buy items and delivery from France or Spain, but now they have changed everything and moved their shipping location to the east and almost every seller is using these dirty tricks to get people to click on their item.

I am looking for a soil press to build my own nursing blocks. The ones from the Dutch company are about 40 to 70 Euro and was surprised when I found one on AE so cheap.

But when tried to add to my cart, I saw that the price on the main page was for some crappy plastic sticks and the metal block press is actually about €22 .

If I had a welding machine, I would make them myself. But I may end up buying the ones from Netherlands that comes with solid metal and not some cheap sheet metal that this AE item is probably made of.
