Free trade is great, we can all pay an American company for a Korean show about exploitation and clap ourselves how great that is, before it gets redone and repackaged as an American original. All with ample free trade DRM and DRM protection laws and DRM protection systems rammed down in very free range international deals that were very free to be renegotiated.
Free trade of exploitation porn which is forbidden from saying class warfare is definitely the pinnacle of human achievement.
One the one hand, nobody wants to pay twelve million smackers to live in fucking Orlando. On the other hand, scroll through the pics and you’ll find this house is partly a Star Wars theme park. Any takers? Anyone wanna set up a consortium to buy this place? I’ll be close enough to drive over and have a look for you.

There’s a lot going on in those pictures, but honestly, this made me WTF!? the most:
I mean, okay, 15 bedrooms, but still.
There’s a “take a tour” link at the bottom. I mean if you’re seen all the local sites already why not. Just pretend to be some business tycoon looking to retire to Florida. Tell them you’re Abe Froman, the sausage king of Chicago.
My wife has a good idea about this. They’re going to have a maid service come in, but probably for like half a day. This way they can wash a shit ton of laundry but all at once instead of having to wait over and over. Also if they want to just vacation there for a weekend, throw all the sheets in the morning they’re leaving, have breakfast and then swap them and head out and you’re all ready for the next weekend.
It’s a thought.

Yes, probably. Still, quite a wall of washers.
“I’m Abe Froman, the Sausage King of Chicago, and I will have all the fucking washers.”
I assume they also have 6 dryers. People like that aren’t hanging their laundry. It does not appear to be a combo unit. None of the pics match.
The washer looks a current model WF45R6300AV, $750, not the most expensive.
The MLS watermark is weird, Samsung does have an 8 year old MLS phone.
Maybe they’re running a counterfeit washing machine ring and that’s how they can afford such a house.
That’s fairly disturbing, as well as woefully ignorant. Then again, today driving back from an on-campus admissions event, I passed a cluster of people by the side of the road with anti-vax banners and all sorts of tripe about this or that alleged miracle drug and fervent demands for autonomy and what-not. At least they weren’t advocating executions.
Yet.

I don’t remember what thread this was originally in, but it’s peak WTF, so here is an update:
We’re done, peak stupidity for the year, you can all stop now.
Choice bits:
I don’t think it’s necessary to post right wing stupidity here.

It’s right wing on it’s surface, but mostly it’s just pure insanity from a person not tethered to reality.
It’s the most WTF thing, possibly ever, so I think the thread of WTF is definitely the place for it.
I think it’s more a weird brand of philosophy (or a fanboy wannabe of the same, if you’re less generous) than a political ideology. There’s no political action to be had with that.

Those tweets sit in the shaded portion of the venn diagram of “WTF?” and “Wait, what?”.
How to tell someone you have weird repressed sexual issues without telling people you have weird repressed sexual issues.
