I feel like this needs a /s because people might be dumb enough to actually think a flash of some sort was used to capture these images.

It's about $3.69 to $3.99 right now around Cincinnati, OH. Gas in California is probably (if not actually) the highest priced gas in the country.

But yeah the cost of everything going up since Trump took office has sucked. This war in Iran feels totally pointless, we've managed to hurt ourselves and kill a bunch of innocent people and all for what? Like honestly it's beyond idiotic, it's cruel and literally weakens our position on the world stage.

There is zero incentive for Iran to allow free transit through the strait of Hormuz, now or in the foreseeable future. Even when this all ends it's not going to go back to like it was before.

Sorry went on a tangent there but yeah gas prices being this high because our president and current administration are fucking morons is so dumb.

I imagine if you ever have the money to do that it won't be a no because you'll be doing pretty good for yourself.

To be fair there's a lot of crypto currency that was/still is a scam. Also I'd argue that BTC, and crypto in general, still is being treated as a security that's backed by thin air. Ie: it's a speculative asset that doesn't actually have any value.

There's nothing really stopping BTC from crashing hard. It's so wild to me how people treat it.

I could have bought bitcoin too when it was worth pennies but there was no way to know which crypto the whales were going to bet on for the pump and dump. It's a missed opportunity but rest assured there's plenty of universes where Bitcoin amounted to nothing.

I genuinely tried to find it with my Google Fu but I've been foiled. Admittedly I spent 5 min or less looking because I don't actually care but it seemed wild enough it might have been fun to figure the game out.

But they did get fruit loop pieces with marshmallow used to "glue" them to the dispenser, so that's pretty cute. I mean it's a lot cuter to imagine than a bunch of horned up rats.

Counterpoint: there is plenty of poorly shot amateur porn that's free on pornhub. I've done some research.

Could be both too, but I'm also not a scientist and don't care enough to go sleuthing through the internet for real scientific theories or hypotheses on the (under)development of human babies compared to other mammals.

Honestly, I think we just ran out of room in the womb for how long we really should be in there developing and shit.

This is like evolutions wonky path to letting us have big ass brains but not always kill the mom when we pop out.
