Trainwreck Kinda Daily: An Earthquake Hits Western New York

There I was at the gym on a Monday morning at 6 am.

Sweating and excited to see what the day had in store for me. My day was just getting started and then something unprecedented happened.

As I’m doing squats listening to some music at full volume; the building starts to shake. My initial unrealistic thought was that everyone was giving me a round of applause for doing squats on a Monday morning.

Then my first rational thought was someone just drove into the building. I assumed that was the case and I continued on with my set. In between reps, I open up Twitter expecting to see an empty timeline because it’s so early. WRONG again! 

Come to find out it was an EARTHQUAKE in BUFFALO, NY of all places.

I had no idea we were capable of being on the receiving end of an earthquake and was quite literally shook (I know, I’m sorry). 

So, I go up to the front desk where a group of a few people was trying to sort it all out. I said to the guy “Did you know that was an earthquake?! I had no idea we could get those.” To which he replied, “Yeah we live on a slope and that’s what happens.” 

First, we have to deal with all this snow and cold and now we have the potential of just getting hit with random earthquakes. Truly unbelievable.

Well, I never expected my week to start like that but at least we’re all awake so go grab a breakfast sandwich and a coffee and get your day started.

Captain’s Log 2/6/2023 – Buffalo Just Got Hit With a 4.2M Earthquake (yes you read that right)

This was my video reaction when it was first reported as a 4.2 but it turns out it was confirmed a 3.8! 

Here are some of my favorite tweets from when the earthquake first happened:

What was your experience with the earthquake?

‘All that glitters is not gold’: Trump’s shiny new scheme brutally mocked



President Donald Trump's latest scheme got a brutal mocking on social media after months of imposing harsh regulations on visas, a looming social media policy for tourists, and anti-immigrant remarks.

Trump on Wednesday revealed that his "Trump Gold Card," which allows wealthy foreigners to effectively purchase residency in the United States for $1 million — with a $15 million DHS processing fee — was now available on the government's website. The policy is intended to replace the existing EB-5 immigrant investor visa program, which allows foreign entrepreneurs to apply for a U.S. work permit if they either invest $800,000 in the U.S. economy or create at least 10 U.S. jobs. The upcoming platinum card is slated to cost $5 million.

Trump wrote this on his Truth Social platform:

"THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT’S TRUMP GOLD CARD IS HERE TODAY! A direct path to Citizenship for all qualified and vetted people. SO EXCITING! Our Great American Companies can finally keep their invaluable Talent. Live Site opens in 30 minutes! trumpcard.gov"

The website featured a scene of eagles flying over amber mountains with a visa tucked behind the landscape background and the text "Unlock life in America."

Social media users had plenty to say in response to the announcement.

"Trump: You just pay me with this make believe gold card and do whatever the hell you want. We love bribes. Especially gold, card shaped bribes," Chris Robinson wrote on X.

"The gold card does not provide expedited EB-1 or EB-2 green cards. They are still subject to the same per-country quota and limited numbers of green cards. They also require dependents to pay an extra $1 million each. All that glitters is not gold," immigration attorney Emily Neumann wrote on X.

"American entrepreneurs now have to compete with wealthy foreigners coming in? The hotel business has already succumbed to this phenomenon. The American dream is being killed by a thousand cuts, and the Trump Gold Card is a deep one," Matthew VanDyke wrote on X.

"Genuinely agog at this; Trump's 'Gold Card' application suggests they'll let people pay the US in crypto, after declaring anyone who has $1 million is inherently a person of 'exceptional business ability' who should be allowed to get an employment-based visa without a job," Aaron Reichlin-Melnick, American Immigration Council fellow, wrote on X.

"An official website of the United States Government," Irish sociologist Kieran Healy wrote on Bluesky, sharing images of the website.

"Just how unserious is the Trump Gold Card program? The administration has been promising it's 'days away' for the last six months, and the website is now touting a separate 'Platinum Card' product with no details other than the option to join a waitlist. Email scam-a-- government," writer Jay Willis wrote on Bluesky.
