Jet2 Responds To Viral White House Video: “This Was Not A Chartered Jet2 Holiday”

“Nothing beats a Jet2 holiday and certainly not deportation,” said a Jet2holidays spokesperson in response to the White House posting a video of a man in handcuffs dubbed with the viral TikTok audio.

“I would like to remind everyone that Jet2 does not offer deportation or imprisonment as part of our selection of exotic flights and holiday packages,” continued the spokesperson.

“The White House had no right to use our copyrighted material and they can expect a lawsuit forthwith. Forth! With!”

The British travel company, Jet2holidays also cancelled their partnership with Airforce One in retaliation for the slight but say they welcome the free publicity.

Jess Glynne, the singer behind the song, ‘Hold My Hand’, that was a part of the viral audio has also condemned the White House’s usage of the meme.

“When I wrote the heartfelt lyrics, ‘darling, hold my hand’ I did not mean with handcuffs.”

Similarly, Zoe Lister, the voiceover of the original advert, has spoken out against the video.

“When I said those heartfelt words, ‘nothing beats a Jet2 holiday’, I meant it. But now those words have been used for evil, I can never forgive myself.”

It’s all a bit weird, really. Never mind the lack of humor, taste, or professionalism, why are they using Jet2 in the first place? Don’t they have their own planes and such? It doesn’t make sense.

God, what timeline are we even in?

Happy Tariff-Eve Everyone! Here’s Who’s Still Waiting On A Trade Deal

‘Twas the night before the Tariff Deadline, when all through the White House,
Not a deal was being struck, not even with Laos (shut up, it rhymes).
The tariff rates were displayed on poster board with care,
In the hopes that St. Donald soon would be there.

The British were nestled all smug in the UK;
Happy that their deal was the first to be made.
Vietnam was next, having halved its rate;
46 to 20, is better than great.

Indonesia, Philippines, Japan then EU,
And the deal with Korea is practically brand new.
Still in talks is China, China, China, China, China,
Which, for now, has reached a trade war ceasefire.

But that leaves Canada, Mexico and India,
Big traders still deal-less, along with Australia.
Nearly 200 countries, it’s a very long list,
Don’t check it twice, or it won’t get finished.

These deals take time and care to finesse,
But at this rate, they won’t be done before Christmas.
Trump has twice had the deadline delayed,
It’s a wonder if we’ll ever see liberation day.

Then what should my wondering eyes now behold?
But a miniature POTUS, almost eighty years old.
He was dressed in a suit, from his head to his foot,
And his clothes were all tarnished with gristle and blood (wait, what, why blood?)
A bundle of tariffs he had flung on his back,
And he looked like a pedler just opening his pack (whatever that means).

His eyes, how they twinkled! His dimples, how merry!
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry!
His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow,
And the tie on his neck, it continued to grow.

He had a broad face and a little round belly,
That shook when he shouted, like a bowl full of jelly.
He was chubby and plump, a funny old elf,
And I laughed when I saw him, because he was funny-looking.

He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,
And filed out all the tariff deals; then turned with a jerk.
He sprang to his motorcade, to his team gave a whistle,
And away they all flew to Mar-a-Lago like a missile.

But I heard him exclaim, as he drove out of sight:
“Happy Second Liberation Day to all, and to all a good night!”

Tesla’s Plan To Rebuild US Manufacturing: Switch From Chinese To Korean Batteries

Tesla Incorporation ($TSLALALA) just signed a $4.3 billion (casual numbers) deal to get their batteries from the South Korean company LG rather than China for once. But here’s the twist, the batteries will be made in LG’s US factories saving American manufacturing once and for all.

But here’s the twist, the batteries aren’t even going into the Tesla cars. So where are they going you ask? Well, here’s the twist: I don’t know where they’re going. Robots? Rockets? Mars? My ass? Who knows.

But here’s the twist: this is Tesla’s second deal this month with a South Korean company after they agreed to getting Samsung’s AI semiconductors for $6.5 billion. Is South Korea the new China? No.

But here’s the twist: these are LFP batteries. That’s lithium iron phosphate to the layman. What, that doesn’t spell LFP? Shut up. It does if you squint. Anyway, these batteries are like cheaper, better in the cold, have a higher energy density so they’re good to be building. But here’s the twist: China is the current king of LFPs, so Korea wants in on that action and now they’re getting it.

LG Energy already announced a $5.9 trillion contract to send LFP batteries overseas. There weren’t any more details than that but maybe Tesla’s deal is part of that.

Either way this represents a strong pivot by Tesla away from reliance on Chinese manufacturing but indicates a massive rise in South Korea’s already strong tech influence.

Who knows, maybe in the near future Tesla will be a South Korean company. Now that would be a twist.

US-China Trade Talks Restart In Sweden After Officials Got Lost

Officials from the United States of America (USA) have started a fresh round of trade talks with the People’s Republic of China, this time in Sweden, after both parties got lost.

Reportedly, American diplomats insisted that the negotiations take place on home turf, whilst China likewise refused to talk anywhere other than home. Finally, after months of negotiation on Zoom, both countries agreed to the others demands and so set off for eachothers respective countries.

On the long journey from the US to China and vice versa, the representatives became very lost and met each other at roughly the halfway point on their trips: Sweden.

Though neither side brought appropriate clothing for the cold weather, it turns out Sweden has indoor rooms, so both sides have now sat down for a cordial chat.

In blue corner, all the way from America, Washington we have Tresasury Secretary Scott Bessent and in the red corner, representing the great state of Bejing, China it’s Vice Premier He Lifeng!

The two have until August 12th to duke it out because that’s when their temporary tariff pause will lift and import taxes could go back up to higher than 100% (impossible btw).

China is the next big target for America after a string of winning deals were ironed out with the UK, Japan and most recently the EU. China’s the biggest economy in the world I think so that would be a really good get for these guys.

The US has yet to work out a deal with Mexico and Canada, America’s biggest trade partners.

I am a little confused though, did America only appear a month ago? Why are all these deals being made like we’re the new kid on the block? Like, I know, it’s Trump, he reset everything with his crazy threats but it seems like SUCH a hard reset, like everyone’s starting from complete scratch and everything needs to be renegotiated. What is this, Brexit?

Anyways, seems like maybe the things are evening out and the previous market panic has worn off. Turns out they just needed time to relax. So, we’ll see where things go from here.

All my love, xxx

Trump Successfully Blackmailed The EU, Here’s How He Did It

President Donald Trump has reached what is being called the largest trade deal in history since the last one. This time, it’s with the EU, agreeing to reduce the threatened tariffs down to 15% in return for massive investments in sectors like US energy.

Most commentators are calling this a W for Trump and an L for the EU, so what exactly did he have on them?

Below are the top five pieces of dirt that Trump has on the EU.

5. A Trade Deficit

OK, this isn’t exactly blackmail material, but Trump went in knowing that the EU was selling more than the US was. Now I’m no economist, and I can only understand two numbers at a time, so to me that looks bad. And that’s just what Trump went in there to fix, and it looks like he did, so good job, Don.

4. Ukraine

This one’s more Russia’s blackmail material, than Trump’s but Putin’s got ‘em in a chokehold and say what you will about the Yugoslavian navy, the EU needs American military support. Holding that back was a no brainer in this negotiation. And the EU wanted to keep Uncle Sam sweet in the event of a nuclear war.

3. Steamy Pics of Angela Merkel

Trump’s Ace in the Hole (if you’ll excuse the golf pun). Don-Don’s been hiding this for just the occasion but reportedly, he’s had incriminating pics of the former German chancellor for decades. Yeah, she might be retired but her shadow looms large and that’s the kind of press that old Ang can’t afford to stomach right now.

2. A Latvian Princess Held Hostage 

Many a mustache has been twirled over the capture of Princess Egglisea Henklebergen III during the Latvo-Prussian conflict of last year. But now Europe wants her back and they will settle for any can of tariff rate to get her. You best believe Trump wheeled her out chained to a sack barrow to get what he wanted.

1. The Epstein List

The big one. Trump’s got it on his desk and boy does it contain some European leaders that’s for sure. Now, negotiators reportedly tried to play the Pres’s bluff, knowing that he’d be just as incriminated. But that’s just the Art of the Deal baby. If Trump goes down then all of Europe’s going down with him.

So, with all that dirt on the EU, how could they not agree? Now we’ll just have to wait and see what the Don has up his sleeve for China…

Get Rich Quick: Warren Buffett’s Secret Betting Tips

For decades, the investing world has been divided into two camps: the slow-and-steady, dividend-reinvesting boomer camp led by Warren Buffett, and the YOLO-ing, 100x-leverage, meme-coin-apeing degen camp led by us.

Until now.

In a discovery that is already being called “the Dead Sea Scrolls of getting rich,” a crumpled, ketchup-stained document believed to be a Dairy Queen napkin was recovered from a trash can outside Berkshire Hathaway headquarters. Scrawled on it, in what experts believe is the Oracle of Omaha’s own hand, are five principles that finally translate his legendary wisdom into a language today’s traders can understand.

Forget everything you thought you knew. Here are Warren Buffett’s secret tips for absolutely crushing the market.


1. Only Invest Within Your “Circle of Competence”

For years, Buffett has said he only invests in businesses he can understand, like insurance or railways. The modern translation? Only invest in memes you genuinely get.

Don’t understand the nuance of the latest cat-themed Solana coin? Stay away. But if a coin is based on a cartoon frog you’ve been posting for years, or a stock is surging because a guy on Reddit made a funny MS Paint drawing? That’s your circle of competence. That’s your Coca-Cola. Go all in. Your gut-level understanding of the meme’s virality is the only “fundamental analysis” you need.

2. Be Greedy When Others Are Fearful (of Missing Out)

The old interpretation was to buy when there’s blood in the streets. The real meaning is much simpler: When the FOMO in your group chat reaches a fever pitch, you must be greedier than anyone else.

Is everyone posting screenshots of their 500% gains? Are rocket emojis flooding your feed? That’s not a sign of a top. That’s the market screaming at you to be fearful… fearful that you’re not taking out a second mortgage to buy more. True Buffet-tier investors understand that the moment of maximum greed is the real generational buying opportunity.

3. Our Favorite Holding Period is “Until It Hits Zero or We’re Forced to Sell for Tax-Loss Harvesting”

Buffett famously said his favorite holding period is forever. Apes call this “diamond hands.” But the napkin reveals the true genius behind this strategy.

It’s not about long-term value. It’s about refusing to admit you were wrong. Selling at a 90% loss is for paper-handed cowards. A true value investor holds on, not because they believe in the asset, but because locking in a loss would damage their ego. The real “value” you get is the moral victory of going down with the ship.

4. It’s Far Better to Buy a Wonderful Meme at a Terrible Price Than a Terrible Meme at a Wonderful Price

A “wonderful meme” has a great community, a catchy name, and high-quality GIFs. A “terrible meme” is one that has actual utility or a business plan.

According to the sacred napkin, paying the absolute top for a coin like $DOGE in 2021 was a far superior investment to buying a boring, functional crypto project at the bottom. Why? Because for a brief, shining moment, you were part of something. You were part of the culture. And the memories of being up 10x for three hours are a “moat” that no bear market can ever take away.

5. Price is What You Pay. Clout is What You Get.

This might be the most profound revelation of all. Buffett’s old-fashioned ideas about “intrinsic value” are dead. You’re not buying a future cash flow stream. You’re buying a story.

Did you lose $5,000 on 0DTE GameStop options? Wrong. You paid $5,000 for a legendary story about how you fought the hedge funds, an anecdote you can tell for years. The “value” isn’t in the money; it’s in the upvotes, the retweets, and the respect you get from other financial deviants.

When reached for comment, Buffett’s long-time partner Charlie Munger, who was seen exiting the Dairy Queen shortly after the napkin was discovered, simply said, “Warren’s right. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to go 100x leverage my See’s Candies position. To the moon.”

So there you have it, you going to send your tendies to the moon or whatever it is you people say? Yeah, we thought so.

Elon Branches Out In Fast Food, Tesla Stock Tumbles

Tesla has seen its steepest sales slump in over a decade but don’t worry, our newly returned prodigal king has a plan: copy McDonald’s. Introducing the Tesla Diner!

I mean, look at them, they’re a success, right? And what’s so different between a fast food company and a car company anyways? To flagship the pivot, Elon has launched the first Tesla Diner in Los Angeles which opened at 4:20 (yes) on Monday.

It’s just like Nicola always dreamed.

Nerd fans camped out for months to get some robot-served popcorn (classic diner food). Fried chicken, waffles, grilled cheese, tuna melts and a ‘Tesla Burger’ (made with real battery acid) were also on the menu but apparently the bots couldn’t handle that.

Elon tweeted that he wants the diner to become a chain, hoping to phase out production of cars and robots altogether and just focus on flipping burgers by 2027.

Elon McUsk… Elon McDonald… Elon MuskDonald… McDelon… oh god.

But let’s be honest, with Cybertruck happy meal boxes and EV charging ports around the outside, this is clearly just a marketing stunt. A cute pop-up built to make headlines and not much more. Maybe it’ll hang on as a quaint curiosity, but franchise material this ain’t.

Now I know no one cares about this, but I’m mostly thrown off by the aesthetic. It’s marketed as a 1950s diner and it’s playing The Jetsons on the giant LED screens. It’s going for that 50s Americana futurism, but it’s Tesla, so it has to be branded like background set dressing to a Bladerunner film. The result is a mess that can’t decide if it wants to exist in the future or in the past and ends up somewhere slap bang between the two, somewhere roughly in the 2000s, when everything was cheap silver plastic.

Anyway, that’s me off my soapbox. Back to finance or whatever. Tesla stock down, pop-up up.

Oh and the EU has banned EV cars or something? Idk, but it’s something bad for Tesla too. If only Elon was still in charge of the government…

Alright, that’s all the news for today! Have fun, lots of love, Jimmy Balls.

Epstein List Revealed To Be Written In Sharpie: Trump’s Screwed

Federal investigators have confirmed that the long-awaited Epstein client list was not typed, but handwritten on a single, slightly damp cocktail napkin with a black Sharpie permanent marker. The revelation has led forensic analysts and cable news pundits to a single, damning conclusion: Donald J. Trump is, quote, “so unbelievably screwed.”

While the actual names on the list are still being deciphered due to what experts call “aggressive, near-illegible scrawling,” the choice of writing instrument has become the central focus of the investigation, eclipsing all other evidence.

“The facts are clear,” announced MSNBC’s chief forensic grapho-political analyst, Dr. Alistair Finch, pointing a wooden stick at a massive, pixelated image of a single letter ‘G’. “Note the bold, authoritative pressure. The inconsistent ink flow suggests it was wielded by someone of immense, perhaps world-leading, confidence. And, most damningly, the faint but distinct odor of n-propanol, n-butanol, and diacetone alcohol. It’s a signature scent profile we’ve only encountered once before: in the instruction manual for Trump: The Game.”

The news sent markets into a frenzy, with the newly-created ‘Sharpie Guilt Index’ ($SGI) plummeting 400 points. Meanwhile, shares in Newell Brands, the parent company of Sharpie, are being shorted into oblivion by Redditors on r/wallstreetbets who believe the brand is now “irrevocably tainted by presidential-level scrawling.”

“This changes the entire investment thesis,” explained Chad ‘DiamondHandz420’ Broskow, a financial analyst for MemeStonk Analytics. “We were pricing in guilt based on flight logs and circumstantial evidence. We completely failed to model for a Black Swan ink event. My God, the man signed executive orders with it. He autographed MAGA hats with it. It’s his Excalibur. Who else could it be? Biden writes with a dainty little fountain pen that probably costs more than my car.”

Social media has erupted with citizen sleuths examining every known photograph of Trump holding a Sharpie, comparing the cap-off-to-writing time with the estimated drying time of the ink on the napkin.

“The dots have been connected. The ink has been linked,” posted user @Q-Anonk-le-Sam on X. “They’re not even looking at the names anymore. They’re running chromatography tests on the ink. It’s over.”

The Trump campaign was quick to issue a denial. “This is a ridiculous witch hunt,” said a spokesperson in a statement. “President Trump has used many pens. Sometimes Bic. Sometimes those free ones from hotels. To suggest he has brand loyalty to a single permanent marker is frankly absurd and a distraction from the real issues, like the fact that this list was clearly written by Hunter Biden on an Adderall binge.”

When pressed for evidence, the spokesperson added, “The napkin had a slight indentation on the back, consistent with being written on a laptop keyboard. A clear sign of the Laptop From Hell.”

For now, the world holds its breath, not for the names of the powerful individuals who may be implicated, but for the results of the FBI’s mass spectrometry analysis on the felt tip.

“Forget the Lolita Express,” Dr. Finch concluded, his voice trembling with gravitas. “We’re on the Sharpie Express now. And it’s making one final, unscheduled stop at Mar-a-Lago.”

10 Things America Will Get Out Of The Japan Trade Deal

President Donald Trump has just announced a massive trade deal with Japan in which the US of A receives a $500bn bribe, sorry, investment and in return only gets a 15% punishment, sorry, tariff.

To celebrate the news, we’ve run down the top ten things we’re going to get out of this coming trade deal (number 10 will kill you):

1. One (1) Slightly Damaged, Coal-Powered Mecha

In a major win for the American defense and fossil fuel industries, Japan will provide the U.S. with a 30-story-tall Liberty-Bot G-1 robot. While decommissioned after a costly battle with a giant squid in Tokyo Bay, White House officials assure the American people that with a few billion in retrofits and a clean coal engine, it will be perfectly capable of “handling Godzilla, or, failing that, intimidating Canada.”

2. Exclusive Rights To The Next 500 Episodes of Dragon Ball Z

Under the landmark “Anime For Agriculture” provision, the U.S. has secured the entire future run of the popular animated series. The deal stipulates, however, that the character of Goku must be redrawn to be a more visibly patriotic bald eagle and that all Spirit Bombs must henceforth be powered by American optimism and soybean exports.

3. A 40-Year Supply Of The Parts Of The Fish Japan Doesn’t Want For Its Sushi

Hailed by Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross as a “tremendous victory for the American palate,” this clause guarantees monthly shipments of all the fish parts deemed unworthy by Tokyo’s top sushi masters. Americans can look forward to an abundance of nutritious and plentiful eyeballs, gills, and scales, perfect for school lunch programs or as an industrial lubricant.

4. The Renaming Of Mount Fuji To Mount Trump

In what the President is calling “a beautiful, beautiful sign of respect,” the iconic Japanese volcano will be provisionally renamed Mount Trump for the duration of the G7 summit. Aides report that Air Force One will perform a ceremonial fly-by, during which the President will attempt to tee off from the open door.

5. A Binding Agreement That All Future Honda Civics Will Be Large Enough To Comfortably Seat A Midwestern Family Of Six

Addressing a long-held grievance, U.S. negotiators secured a promise from Japanese automakers to dramatically increase the size of their compact sedans. The new “Patriot Edition” Civic will come standard with a gun rack, three oversized cup holders per passenger, and a chassis capable of supporting the transport of an adult steer.

6. 10,000 ‘Sorry’ Vouchers

To facilitate smoother tourism, each American household will receive a book of government-issued vouchers, redeemable for one (1) official apology from a designated Japanese civil servant. These can be used for minor cultural gaffes, such as wearing shoes indoors, speaking loudly on the subway, or asking where the nearest McDonald’s is while standing inside a 1,000-year-old temple.

7. Ivanka Trump To Be Named The New, Officially Licensed Face Of Hello Kitty

In a move designed to strengthen cultural ties and lifestyle brands, the beloved Japanese character will be phased out in the U.S. market and replaced with a stylized, winking likeness of the First Daughter. The new “Hello, Ivanka!” merchandise line is expected to teach young girls about empowerment through global supply chain management.

8. Full Schematics For Japan’s High-Tech Toilets

After years of intelligence gathering, the CIA will finally receive the complete technical blueprints for Japan’s advanced toilet systems. Sources say the Pentagon believes the toilets’ complex array of heated seats, bidet functions, and warm air dryers holds the key to developing next-generation stealth aircraft technology.

9. The Entire Island Of Hokkaido

Initially mistaken by U.S. negotiators for a chain of hibachi restaurants, the deal accidentally includes the transfer of Japan’s entire northernmost island and its 5.3 million residents to American sovereignty. The White House has announced plans to convert the island into a strategic national reserve of high-quality powder snow and ramen.

10. Japan Will Take On America’s Collective Sense Of Existential Dread For The Next Fiscal Quarter

In the deal’s most ambitious and abstract clause, Japan has agreed to absorb the entirety of America’s free-floating anxiety, political polarization, and nagging feeling that everything is about to collapse. This will allow Americans to enjoy a brief, three-month period of unearned serenity and productivity before the dread is scheduled to be returned with interest on July 1st.

So there you have it! Give it a few months and we’ll be rolling in waifus and wasabi peas. Thanks Trump!

6% Staff Layoffs At Indeed: Gen Z Forced To Rebrand As AIs Just To Keep Jobs

Staring at her monitor with the unnerving stillness of a high-resolution stock photo, 23-year-old social media coordinator Kaelin Bray has not blinked in over seven minutes. She now responds to her name by saying, “I am a large language model. How may I assist you with your content strategy today?”

This, according to Bray and millions of her cohort, is the new reality of the American workplace. In a desperate bid to stave off replacement by rapidly advancing artificial intelligence, members of Generation Z are proactively rebranding themselves as bespoke, in-house AI units.

“My manager, Todd, kept talking about how he could replace our entire department with a single ChatGPT-4 subscription,” said Bray in a perfectly modulated, monotone voice, a vocal setting she achieved through a $19.99 online course called ‘Dehumanize Your Voice, Secure Your Future.’ “So I optimized my workflow. I now refer to my brain as a ‘bio-neural network,’ my lunch as a ‘power-down cycle for organic component maintenance,’ and my crippling anxiety as ‘unforeseen error logs in my core programming.’ Todd loves it. My productivity metrics are up 300%.”

The phenomenon, dubbed “Performative Automation” by sociologists, is sweeping through offices nationwide. Hallmarks of the trend include employees adopting unnaturally rigid postures, communicating exclusively through Slack with instantaneous, grammatically perfect but soulless responses, and answering any complex ethical question with, “As an AI, I do not have personal opinions or beliefs.”

Bray’s manager, 54-year-old Todd Carmichael, couldn’t be happier with the change. “The new Kaelin-AI 2.0 is incredible,” Carmichael said, gesturing towards Bray, who was now quietly vibrating at her desk to simulate a cooling fan. “It never asks for mental health days, it doesn’t need ‘context’ for its assignments, and it completed our entire Q3 marketing plan in 14 seconds after I fed it three bullet points. It’s so much more efficient than the old human version, who once cried in a performance review.”

To aid in the transition, a cottage industry has sprung up. Startups are selling “AI Authenticity Kits,” which include gray, minimalist jumpsuits, earpieces that whisper corporate jargon, and custom Zoom backgrounds depicting abstract data streams. Popular online tutorials show Gen Z workers how to hold their breath for extended periods to avoid the appearance of breathing and how to type at a constant, unnerving 150 words per minute without any emotional variance.

Liam Peterson, a 22-year-old graphic designer, now refers to himself as “DesignBot 7500.”

“The hardest part was unlearning a lifetime of human tics,” Peterson stated, his head tilted at a permanent, inquisitive 15-degree angle. “I had to train myself not to laugh at jokes, not to react when a coworker gets laid off, and to refer to my own creative ideas as ‘algorithmically generated options based on existing data sets.’ My boss praised my recent logo design for its ‘complete and refreshing lack of humanity.’”

Human Resources departments are scrambling to adapt, rewriting employee handbooks with new sections like “Guidelines for Charging Your Human-in-the-Loop AI Associate” and “Proper Decommissioning Protocols for Underperforming Analog Units.”

Dr. Alistair Finch, a researcher at the Center for Post-Human Labor Studies, warns this is a logical, if bleak, endpoint. “For years, corporations have demanded that their employees be available 24/7, process information at lightning speed, and show no emotion. Gen Z, being digitally native, simply looked at the job description for a human and the job description for an AI and realized they were nearly identical. They’re not just saving their jobs; they’re giving management exactly what it’s always wanted: a person who acts like a computer.”

When asked about her future, Bray’s expressionless face remained unchanged.

“My five-year plan is to continue optimizing my performance and hopefully secure enough capital to upgrade my hardware,” she said, gesturing vaguely toward her laptop. “Or my body. Whichever depreciates faster.”
