To anyone thinking of sending me links to Temu promotions—please stop. I understand the appeal of a good deal, but I’d much rather get my gifts from reliable sources. It’s frustrating to see people fall for these deceptive schemes, and I would encourage everyone to do a bit of research before trusting an app that promises “too good to be true” offers. If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

In conclusion, while Temu may seem like an enticing way to shop for gifts, the risks outweigh the rewards. As consumers, it’s vital to stay informed, exercise caution, and choose reputable platforms that offer transparency and value without hidden agendas.

Cameo Stay Finessing and Defending Weirdos for the Bag 6:22

for 16 dage siden6:22

6:22

Cameo be looking like a W at first but nah it’s a whole scam wrapped in clout chasing. Celebs charging like $500 to mumble a 10-second shoutout like bro at least pretend to care. Hidden fees everywhere, weird paywalls, and if you ain’t got money don’t even bother tryna feel included. And they really out here letting predators like edp445 eat while blackballing new talents for nothing. Bro got canceled off the whole internet but Cameo still letting him run it up like that’s normal. Protecting creeps but acting like they care about their image is crazy. New talent get it even worse. They let you make a couple hundred in a week from instant mode , gas sing you up, then boom you blacklisted like you never existed. No promo, no support, just tossed aside once they done eating off you. Yeah some celebs make it cool but overall it’s overpriced mid. Cameo be the fast food of fan interactions, barely worth it but people keep coming back like they don’t know better.…

Steph Curry x Michelle Obama Drop ‘Plezi’—The Hydration Collab Nobody Asked For 0:50

for 17 dage siden0:50

0:50

Oh boy, here we go. Steph Curry and Michelle Obama just decided to drop a new drink on us, and it’s called Plezi. Yeah, you heard that right—Steph Curry, the guy who made a career out of shooting three-pointers, and Michelle Obama, who’s basically the self-proclaimed queen of nutrition and the “Let’s Move!” campaigns, have teamed up to drop a hydration drink that’s supposed to compete with Prime, Gatorade, and whatever else you’ve been drinking while pretending to be healthy. Plezi comes in three flavors—Lemon Lime, Orange Mango Twist, and Tropical Punch—because who doesn’t want to sip on a drink that sounds like it could be the official beverage of a 2010s Nickelodeon cartoon? Available for $25 for a pack of 12, which is totally not gonna flop harder than the new Snow White movie. Like, did Michelle Obama really sign up for this? Oh, and don’t forget, Steph’s wife, Ayesha, helped “create” the drink formula, which—no shade, but I’m pretty sure they just tossed some fruit flavors and called it “unbeatable.” People are already roasting this collab harder than a burnt toast on Twitter. It’s the most “random collab of the year,” they say. The most “weirdest collab ever,” they say. Seriously, it’s like mixing a sports drink with a public service announcement about healthy eating. But hey, let’s not forget, this isn’t just about throwing a drink into the market—Curry was in the lab, helping with everything, from the drink to the bottle. Because if there’s anyone who knows how to bottle success, it’s a guy who hits shots from half-court, right? Honestly, unless it’s the official drink of your local gym’s treadmill section, Plezi’s gonna flop harder than a cringe-worthy TikTok dance at your aunt’s wedding.…

Blood Moon Tomorrow: Total Slay or Total Flop? No Cap, It’s Bussin’! 1:38

for 4 weeks siden1:38

1:38

Yo, fam, there’s a straight-up blood moon droppin’ tomorrow, March 13, 2025, and it’s gonna be bussin’! This ain’t no mid lunar vibe—Earth’s shadow’s gonna yeet the moon into a red glow for 65 minutes, peakin’ at 2:59 a.m. EDT. North America’s got the VIP pass, but if you’re West Coast, it’s poppin’ off at 11:26 p.m. PDT. No cap, it’s the first total lunar eclipse since 2022, and it’s lowkey a big deal. The moon’s gonna be extra—like, Worm Moon meets Blood Moon energy, all because the sun’s rays get filtered through Earth’s atmosphere, turnin’ it red like a TikTok glow-up. You don’t need drip or fancy gear to peep it—just vibe outside with clear skies. Binoculars? Slay. Telescope? Chef’s kiss. But even naked eyes are valid for this sigma event. If you’re tryna lock in, totality’s the main character moment—stars might even pop off around it. East Coast, you’re up late at 2:26 a.m.; Hawaii, you’re chillin’ at 8:26 p.m. Weather’s the only opp—clouds could ratio your view, so pray for W skies. Europe’s cooked tho, barely catchin’ it before moonset. This ain’t just cap—it’s a flex from nature, first of three blood moons by 2026. Christopher Columbus once used one to rizz up some locals in 1504, so it’s got lore. Don’t snooze on this—set your alarm, grab some munchies, and vibe check the night sky. It’s goated, fr fr.…

Skype’s Yeeted in May 2025: Gen Alpha’s Brain Rot Scoop on the L Vibe 2:04

for 6 weeks siden2:04

2:04

Alright, fam, here’s the extra sauce your Gen Alpha brain rot crew needs to know about Skype getting yeeted in May 2025. Hold tight, ‘cause we’re diving deeper into the tea. First off, the shutdown’s not just a random vibe check – Microsoft’s been dropping hints for ages that Skype was on life support. They’ve been pumping all their clout into Microsoft Teams, tryna make it the one-stop shop for calls, chats, and that corporate slay. Since 2021, Teams has been eating Skype’s lunch, and now it’s got over 300 million monthly users vibin’ on it. Skype? Bro, it’s been fading faster than a Snapchat streak – no cap, it’s barely a blip next to Discord or WhatsApp these days. For the tech nerds in the squad, here’s the 411: starting May 5, 2025, Skype’s desktop and mobile apps are getting bricked. You won’t even be able to log in, fam – it’s a total blackout. Microsoft’s like, “Don’t trip, we gotchu,” and they’re auto-migrating your Skype contacts and chat history to Teams. But heads up – some old files or crusty memes you sent back in 2010 might not make the cut. If you’re tryna save those throwback receipts, you gotta export ‘em manually before the plug’s pulled. Check Skype’s settings for the “export chat history” move – it’s lowkey clutch. Oh, and if you’re still flexin’ Skype credits or a subscription? Microsoft’s got your back… kinda. They’re promising refunds or Teams credits, but you gotta jump on that before the deadline or it’s a fat L. No word yet on the exact cutoff, so stay woke and peep their official site for the deets. For the real ones who used Skype for sus late-night calls or international rizz, this hits different. It’s not just an app dying – it’s a whole era getting ratioed. Gen Alpha’s probably like, “Who cares, we got better opps,” but the millennials are out here crying over their pixelated webcam memories. X posts are already popping off with “Skype was my childhood” takes – pure copium. Last thing: don’t sleep on Teams sneaking in some AI glow-up. Microsoft’s been flexing with Copilot integration, so maybe they’re tryna make it less boomer and more banger. Could be a W for the future, but right now, it’s still giving “forced group project” energy. So, squad, that’s the full drip. Skype’s toast, Teams is the new plug, and the clock’s ticking ‘til May. You dropping a “F” in the chat for Skype, or are we just moving on? Stay skibidi, fam!…

Touch Grass App Drops March ‘25: Screen Time’s Cooked, Brains Are Back 2:19

for 6 weeks siden2:19

2:19

First off, this ain’t just a gimmick—it’s got real brains behind it. The app’s using Google’s Cloud Vision API to flex its grass-detecting skills, scanning your pics like a hawk to make sure you’re not faking it with some sad houseplant or a green rug. Rumor has it, Rhys Kentish might even level up to a custom AI model down the line, so it’s only gonna get smarter at sniffing out your outdoor vibes. That’s next-gen accountability, fam—no cheating the system! For the eco-warriors out there, it’s got a green heart. That 50% of premium skip profits goin’ to UK wildlife and rewilding? It’s not just talk—think restoring habitats, planting trees, and saving critters while you’re saving yourself from scrollin’ into oblivion. It’s a double W: less screen time for you, more nature for the planet. Plus, the app’s got a retro 8-bit pixelated vibe—like if Mario had to ditch the pipes and go hug a lawn—so it’s got that quirky charm to keep things fun. Listeners should also know it’s iOS-only for now, droppin’ March 14, 2025, so Android peeps gotta sit tight. You’ll need an iPhone with iOS 17 or later, and yeah, you gotta have actual grass nearby—no excuses, city dwellers might need to hunt for a park! The free version’s chill with one skip a month, but premium’s where the party’s at: unlimited app blocks, screen time stats to flex your progress, and extra skips if you’re feelin’ lazy. It’s perfect for anyone who’s ever lost a whole morning to TikTok and thought, “Bruh, I need help.” Oh, and the hype’s real—it blew up on X and Hacker News after Rhys dropped the teaser, so your listeners are gettin’ in on somethin’ that’s already got the internet buzzin’. It’s not just an app; it’s a vibe shift—kickin’ phone addiction to the curb, one grass pic at a time. Tell ‘em to pre-order it on the App Store and get ready to touch grass like it’s a side quest in the game of life!…
