This is predatory. The subject of this email was “Margaret, paying for groceries is just one way to use your card.”

They can get bent. I would consider stealing groceries before paying with a 32.99% revolving credit card. 🤡🖕🏻(not really because I don’t steal but come on)

The section from the CareCredit statement showing that anything I would charge on this card would be subject to a 32.99% APR.

"Zombies are among us. And these tiny undead creatures are everywhere. In this excerpt from "Rise of the Zombie Bugs" (Johns Hopkins University Press, 2025), author Mindy Weisberger examines the very grizzly end for worker ants that get zombiefied by the decapitating fly Pseudacteon wasmanni."

It's GRISLY. GRISLY, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD! The decline of literacy in the past couple of decades has been appalling. Learn your homophones if you're going to write or edit for the public!

Anyway. Deep breath. New science book alert. #science #parasites #ants livescience.com/animals/insect

Live Science · 'Once the ant turned its back on the colony and walked away, it was on a death march. And the parasite was in the driver's seat'"Once the egg hatches, the ant has only a few weeks of life before it succumbs to the manipulations of its attacker, stumbling away from its home and family and then undergoing decapitation from the inside out."

@gocu54 @ahltorp @zakalwe

#ruleOfLaw is corrupted by #plutocracy (i didn't say #capitalism in sensitivity to your beliefs: i am asking you to see a difference between #rentSeeking #parasites and a #freeMarket)

they profit at the expense of our debilitation, bankruptcy, and early death

in such a scenario rule of law itself has been compromised

because *the law* supports mass murder on a grand scale for profit

so i ask you to understand #luigi is inevitable

i am not asking you to embrace him

@gocu54 @deepmud

#plutocracy corrupts our legislative process, preventing #universalHealthcare

i didn't say #capitalism

i won't argue with you on that: capitalism in the idealized view is about free markets

this is about rent seeking #parasites

right?

now please listen:

if normal legal means for change are blocked by #corruption

then *violence becomes inevitable*

so i am not asking you to embrace #luigiMangione

i am asking you to see #luigi as inevitable

there will be many more luigis

Cool, but you don't remove parasites by taxing them, it doesn't work like that.

Ask any cancer survivor, 100% of them didn't tax their tumors. The big ones have to be removed, their remains have to be burnt alive, all their satellites have to be cleansed with chemical extermination.

This may leave big holes and cost you some hair, but everything gets replaced by sane structures in the end and it saves your life.

Taxes only prevent their return.
