📣 Instagram subscriptions have become a crazy business. Shubhashree... Sahu is reportedly charging around ₹399/month for exclusive content, with 5,961 subscribers. That would put the gross subscription revenue at roughly ₹23.8 lakh per month. 👀💸 And the wild part? Some subscribers may be students or people with limited income, yet they’re still spending money on this. Social media monetisation is getting unreal. 💀show more

This is completely insane. Most people don’t realize it... yet, but the American Dream is officially declared DEAD. The median household income is $80,734, and we need an income of $111,252 to afford a home. That means that even with TWO incomes, most people CAN’T AFFORD A HOME. Meanwhile, they tax half your income to start wars nobody asked for, fund fake Somalian daycares, and the Pentagon is spending $2M on crab legs PER MONTH. This has to be the greatest scam in modern history. I genuinely don’t understand why there isn’t a nationwide revolution going on right now.show more

THIS CURLY CUTIE TURNS SIMPLE LIFESTYLE CLIPS INTO $12,800/MONTH.... Curly hair. Warm sunlight. A quiet ride. Simple outfit. No crazy location, no dramatic storyline, no complicated edit. She is just sitting there, looking around, letting the moment feel natural and somehow that is exactly what makes the clip work. The internet is overloaded with AI girls trying to look perfect. Perfect apartment. Perfect lighting. Perfect pose. Perfect everything. This one does the opposite. It feels like a tiny piece of someone's everyday life, which makes the viewer wonder what happens outside the frame. Where is she going? Who is she with? Why does this feel like a real moment? That curiosity is enough to keep the watch going. The creator behind the page turns that simplicity into a repeatable format: 3–4 short lifestyle clips per day across TikTok, Instagram and X, with different locations, outfits and everyday situations but the same recognizable character. The traffic then moves into a paid layer with subscriptions around $11.99–$17.99/month, plus premium content, tips and custom requests. The numbers stack up quickly: around 610 paying subscribers at an average of $13.50 brings in roughly $8,235/month, with another $4,565 coming from premium drops, tips and custom content. Total: $12,800/month. And that's the interesting part. She isn't doing anything extraordinary. She's just consistently interesting enough to make people stop. The curls get the first look. The lifestyle setting makes it believable. The character keeps people coming back. That's the real AI creator formula: Make the face recognizable. Make the lifestyle desirable. Make the content simple enough to repeat. One girl. One camera angle. Hundreds of everyday moments. And suddenly a simple lifestyle clip becomes a $12.8K/month content machine.show more

Our World Cup 2026 content programme is here. From... now until July 23, the content we release on our podcast, articles and Patreon exclusive feed will be centred on the World Cup. As well as covering the history and heritage of the tournament, we've also explored themes of resistance, resilience and identity during this content programme. This is one of the most politically charged World Cup tournaments in history. Tragically, not everyone will be able to attend to support their nation. Some people may end up detained or worse. However, there is still a lot of joy to be found through this tournament, and diaspora communities will have a huge role to play in bringing that joy to the World Cup. We hope you enjoy the content we've created for this tournament. We kick things off today with our usual Monday podcast. Thank you to all the fantastic contributors who have taken part in this. The World Cup is just around the corner. Let's go 🏆show more

AN 18-YEAR-OLD WITH $30 IN AI TOOLS CAN NOW... TURN YOUTUBE SLOP INTO A $17K/MONTH MACHINE The video says the quiet part out loud. Kid flexing next to two expensive cars with the caption: POV you are 18 and make AI slop on YT. It looks like a meme. It is also the business model. The article breaks down why. You do not need a face, studio, editor, camera or original genius. You need a high-RPM niche, Claude for scripts, ElevenLabs for voice, CapCut for assembly, and enough discipline to ship 3-4 videos a week. Finance at 500K views/month can pull around $10K from AdSense. Entertainment at the same traffic might do $3K - $4K Same attention, different payout. That is what people miss about “AI slop.” The content can be mediocre and the economics can still be excellent if the niche pays, the cadence holds, and affiliate or sponsor money sits on top. The kid in the video is not flexing because the content is beautiful. He is flexing because YouTube does not pay for taste. It pays for watch time in expensive categories, and AI made the factory cheap enough for teenagers to run.show more

If you spend $2,000 a month and pay for... ChatGPT and Claude, this card hands you around $1,000 back a year - and almost nobody has done the math > 3% base cashback on Core, 5% on your AI subscriptions > Bump to Platinum and AI cashback jumps to 10%, with Claude Pro and ChatGPT Plus bundled in - roughly $500 of subscriptions covered before you count a single cashback dollar Access Code: W6TRRM That is money coming back on spending you were doing anyway. Groceries, subscriptions, the AI tools you already pay for One honest catch I cover in the article - the cashback pays in $XPL, a volatile token and the rate is capped and laddered, not flat. So run your own numbers, do not take a headline rate as gospel But the structure is real. Every other card treats your AI bill as ordinary spend. This one turns it into your highest earning category Full math, every tier, every tradeoff, in the articleshow more

Almost everyone I talk to genuinely do not understand... how ordinary families are making this work anymore, especially those raising children and the uncomfortable answer is that many of them are not. People are maintaining the appearance of financial stability by carrying credit card balances, stretching vehicle loans across 6 or 7 years, dividing everyday purchases into installments and quietly falling behind. The numbers reveal what the headline economy often conceals. Childcare Center based childcare now averages roughly $1,372 per month for one child and approximately $2,333 per month for two children, or about $28,000 per year. Infant care can cost between $1,560 and $1,800 per month for each child. Vehicle Payments The average new car payment is approximately $770 per month, while the average used car payment is around $531 and the average lease payment is about $619. Nearly 20% of new car buyers now have monthly payments exceeding $1,000. The Basic Family Math One average new car payment combined with childcare for two children already consumes roughly $3,100 per month, or more than $37,000 annually, before paying for housing, groceries, insurance, utilities, healthcare, clothing or taxes. Credit Cards Roughly 13.1% of credit card balances are at least 90 days delinquent, approaching the approximately 13.7% peak recorded during the Great Financial Crisis. Auto Loans Serious auto loan delinquencies are approximately 5.6% overall, while subprime delinquencies of 60 days or more have reached roughly 6.8%, the highest level in 32 years. The stress remains concentrated among weaker borrowers, but that is often where broader economic deterioration begins. Buy Now, Pay Later Usage What began as a small checkout convenience has developed into a major parallel credit system. The largest providers originated about 180 million pay in four loans worth more than $24 billion in 2021, nearly 10x the number issued in 2019. Estimated United States transaction value later climbed toward $70 billion, while adult usage increased from roughly 10% in 2021 to 16% by 2025. Buy Now, Pay Later Stress One survey found that 47% of users made at least one late payment, compared with 41% the previous year and 34% two years earlier. Most late payments may eventually be resolved, but the trend still reveals widespread short term cash flow pressure. Millions of working families are no longer comfortably funding their lives from current income. They are financing childcare, transportation and ordinary consumption through increasingly fragile layers of debt. From the outside, the economy still appears functional. Underneath it, a growing share of families are not getting ahead or even holding steady. They are simply postponing the moment when the arithmetic finally catches up with them.show more

MOM + DAUGHTER CHANGE INTO 2 ICONIC CHARACTERS IN... ONE SHORT CLIP. THEIR PAGE CAN PULL $10,000 A MONTH. 46-year-old mom. 19-year-old daughter. Matching setup. Matching theme. Then the outfits change and both of them become recognizable characters from the same universe. That is why this format works so well. You are not watching one transformation. You are watching two at the same time, which gives the viewer more to compare and more reason to stay until the reveal. The mom creates the surprise. The daughter adds contrast. The matching character theme makes the joke instantly understandable. And that is what drives retention. 2 people. 2 transformations. 1 recognizable theme. 1 final reveal. Pages built around transformation clips like this can use TikTok, Instagram Reels, and X for reach, then monetize through brand deals, affiliate links, paid communities, or premium content. At roughly 3–5 million monthly views, a page with strong conversion and sponsorships can realistically sit around $10,000/month. The smartest part is the side-by-side format. People do not just watch to see what changes. They watch to decide who did it better. That creates comments. Comments create more distribution. And more distribution creates more revenue. One short costume clip. Two characters. Millions of potential views. $10K/month from a format simple enough to repeat every week.show more

Dear Dr Paul Tungwarara - Presidential Advisor Dr P... Tungwarara, Presidential Advisor It has been a while l participated on the CAB3 debate both on social media and ground. But trails of my participation still linger, following me everyday. I participated voluntarily in Harare Province with my colleagues. It was basically out of the rational perspective to support a good cause that will see Zimbabwe going through a peaceful democratisation for economy development without much hullabaloo and frequent electoral cycles. You can verify my participation with Chairman, Masimirembwa and PC , Voyage As a scholar and Zimbabwean, the effort in support of CAB3 was effortless. I did it with ease. As a media man, social media and mainstream media was easy to exploit for the cause. I would have loved to attach so much evidence of my participation but this portal would not allow me My point is, I thought it was going to be a seasonal once off thing to endure insults or harassment politically, unfortunately it has become something for the lifetime . It means l will have to carry this with me that l supported CAB3. Those disappointed that l supported CAB3 now call me a SELL OUT. Back home in Hwange-Vic Falls, the stronghold of the opposition, they have named me CAB3. Upon that, the mockery, l receive everyday is nauseating that some comrades received MONEY and CARS yet l gained NOTHING. Not that l wanted to gain anything but l participated FREELY as a citizen and member of ZANU-PF People continue laughing at me that Rutendo Matinyararire received a fortune yet he was OPPOSING CAB3. Iam not writing this to seek for compensation, No. I can not be compensated for working for a good cause. Iam writing this to be recognised Regards Dr Limukani Mathe sir_wicknell.show more

People still don't understand how good Codex has become... 👀 I asked it to build this Starbucks website and within some 30 minutes it generated this without me touching a single line of code or spending time looking for assets either. Imagen generated every visual and GPT hooked everything into the codebase. After a couple of small tweaks it all just worked. It didn't even use half of my Codex session. It's super surprising to see quality of the assets. Was way better than I expected. That made me think about what AI is actually changing. Being a developer or a designer was never just about doing the work, writing code or designing it using some kind of tool. It was about knowing what to build in the first place. AI is getting incredibly good at the doing. The hard part is still having good ideas, making the right decisions, and knowing when something feels right. That is only getting more valuable. The people who win won't be the ones writing the most code. They'll be the ones with the best ideas who know how to turn them into reality with AI. Live: Code:show more

And “ah-choo” to you too! As a new parent... you won’t have to wait long for signs that your baby is watching and mimicking you. It’s all a part of their earliest objective: learning how to be just like you. Witness this 4-month-old as she returns dad’s feigned sneeze. She doesn’t yet have the articulation down to mimic his sound with accuracy, but there’s little question she’s mirroring dad’s actions. It’s an important reminder that your baby is always watching, listening, and learning - so never assume they are too young to be absorbing your actions, words, or the media you may be exposing them to (even in the background). 🎥 via Babies Fun on FB.show more

For years, the coaching industry operated with very little... scrutiny. Fake success stories, hidden charges, paper leak networks and all kinds of marketing gimmicks became normal. Parents kept spending money because they felt they had no other option. In the last few years, things seem to be changing in UP. Crackdowns on paper leak gangs, STF action against organised cheating rackets and initiatives like Abhyudaya have started challenging the old coaching ecosystem. The message appears to be clear: education should not become a business built on fear, misinformation and exploitation. There is still a long way to go, but at least the coaching mafia is no longer being treated as untouchable. For students and parents, that itself is a welcome change. #CoachingMafiaExposedshow more

🚨🗣️ Gary Neville has criticised Liverpool’s £120m signing of... Bradley Barcola, claiming the club is now spending far too much and “getting away with it.” “Liverpool have spent an unbelievable amount of money recently, and nobody seems to be talking about it. They keep spending huge fees and somehow keep getting away with it. They broke the British transfer record to sign Florian Wirtz, then spent another British-record fee on Alexander Isak, and both have flopped so far. Now they’ve spent £120m on Bradley Barcola. It’s a ridiculous amount of money. Barcola is a good player, but £120m? Come on. What has he done to justify that fee? Liverpool used to be one of the smartest clubs in the transfer market. They identified the right players, signed them for sensible fees and developed them. Now they’re starting to become like Chelsea and Manchester City. They’re spending massive amounts on players who, in my opinion, are average for the prices being paid, and just hoping it works out. Wirtz hasn’t worked, Isak hasn’t worked, and instead of learning from those mistakes they’ve gone straight back into the market and spent another ridiculous amount on Barcola. You have to question the direction the club is going. Liverpool cannot keep spending £100m-plus on players and act as though it’s normal. At some point the pressure of those transfer fees catches up with you. Barcola could turn out to be a good signing, but for £120m you’re expecting an elite, proven world-class player — not someone you’re hoping will eventually become one. Liverpool are spending too much money now, and the worrying thing is they’re starting to look more and more like Chelsea and Manchester City: throwing huge sums at players and hoping the next one works.”show more

🚨Little Devils Gang Terrorizes Midtown, Threatening NYC’s Tax Revenue... and Local Businesses. This morning, around 10 AM, they robbed an innocent New Yorker in broad daylight. Four suspects were arrested and taken to Downtown Manhattan courthouse A few hours later, the same crew hit Five Below. What started as shoplifting quickly escalated when they pulled a knife on employees, turning it into a full-blown robbery, according to sources. This isn’t a one-off. Every single day, this crew is tied to multiple incidents—robberies, shoplifting, and violent confrontations. They run through the city with complete impunity, fully aware that because of their age, the law rarely holds them accountable, according to sources. Most of these younger gang members live in taxpayer-funded shelters. They get arrested, they rob people, they stab people, and then they return to their city-funded accommodations. Parents of these suspects do nothing. Why are New Yorkers paying for these gang members to hurt people—and then paying for their safe return? Business owners have been telling me this gang is costing them tons of money, not only through theft but by scaring away customers. With the holiday season around the corner, tourists may avoid spending money in Midtown or even in New York. Some may even tell friends they got robbed while visiting the city, which could have a lasting impact on tourism and local businesses. Midtown alone generates roughly 20% of New York City’s taxpayer revenue. Yet gangs like the Little Devils, coming from the Bronx or Queens, are terrorizing the area, hurting local businesses, scaring residents and visitors, and costing the city millions. If nothing changes, sooner or later they’re going to kill a cop or an innocent person. The situation is spiraling out of control, and Midtown is on edge. Every day there’s another crime, and every day they get bolder. This gang is a ticking time bomb, and the city’s residents, tourists, and businesses are watching in fear.

The 1st Tesla Cybercab at the Giga Texas crash... testing facility. Hard to say for sure, but this may indicate the vehicle has completed most of the final engineering & production tests out at Fremont and what remains is now at Giga Texas. If this follows how the Cybertruck proceeded, we are likely a month or two before we will see initial test runs of what will be the production version. This matches up with all the equipment deliveries and installation inside the factory that we have been monitoring over the past few months. Cybercab is getting close to existing IRL!show more

#KRamp - Not liking a film is perfectly fine... but a section of ‘early review’ media used the harshest of words in their reviews, as if they have some ‘grudge’ on the people associated with the movie. ‘No one can stop a film which offers genuine laughs’, this point is proved yet again. The good news is, proving the naysayers wrong, the film’s revenue has doubled compared to day one and is all set to perform even better utilising the festival holidays. As things stand today, the film is on track to become a clean hit. The scale and span of both films may be different. But K-Ramp and Waltair Veerayya, have a lot of similarities. Both the films offered mass comedy, both the films were reviewed harshly by the early reviewers and both the films became/set to become profitable ventures for all the involved parties.show more

" A mattress. Well Maybe for some individuals. "... This is something based on a comic I made with Ai in the past. I had the comic animated with Atlabs AI The video pretty much says what everything is about. I honestly like silly comics like this. I really should make more and have them as videos as well. That's another things for a long list of things I need done... Also I plan on running more tests with Omniflash in the future especially when Seedance models may not do things a certain way or have things looking a certain way. Also if anybody is planning on using Atlabs for anything I plan on making a video next month on how I use certain video models and which I typically use. This is specifically on how I use certain models for certain things. Not MG. I plan on having it in a tutorial section. I have hopes this will provide people that use any video models with some needed help when choosing what they should get started with because a Sora video model is no longer an option, which was very integral involving how I would use video models in general. Anyway I have an atlabs link below. If you make an account or have one already I hope what I plan on making next month and showing you, helps a lot. This was made with AtlabsAi. This was all done with Ai. #furrycomedyvideo #furryvideo #aianimation #aifurryshow more
