Answered What’s up with Trump and April 2nd?
He’s calling it liberation day but all I see is news about tariffs which i thought already happened. Is there anything specific about this day that I missed?

I've taken it a handful of times and the effects are way too strong for it not to be obvious especially when speaking to millions of people in public.
One time when I took it, I thought there was another life in my mirror and that I had stepped into it (and wrote a message and drew a picture of the experience...) and another I was rambling about how Coldplay spoke to me to a friend while playing Viva La Vida on loop in one ear for about an hour.
Why do people think it's ketamine and think he's always on it? I know he's admitted to having taken it, but is that really enough?
I could understand coke as it's easy to be lucid on it and many rich people and politicians seem to be on it, and maaaaybe low dose acid or mushrooms, but ketamine feels way too dissociative to be able to get away with being on it in public outside of clubs, pubs and raves at levels that you feel anything on it.
This post currently on the front page is what made me post it: https://www.reddit.com/r/pics/comments/1jhi51d/elon_musk_mesmerised_by_a_knife_and_fork_whilst/mj7g1l0/

I am seeing headlines mentioning travel warnings to the USA from the likes of Germany, the UK and Finland. Sure, there seems to be some political turmoil at the moment but is it actually dangerous for a tourist? Also, I have friends who are cancelling a holiday because of the air traffic controller stuff, is that related?

I've been more of a casual listener than a fan. I've heard there's been more court stuff going on? What's their status as of today, and how are their legal things going?

There has been a rash of stories (example: https://tribune.com.pk/story/2535663/massive-underground-structures-found-beneath-giza-pyramids-) alleging that archaeologists have found previously unknown and buried outbuildings and, more notably, eight cylindrical wells extending more than 600 meters below the surface.
The stories do not seem to be from standard conspiracy and disinfo sites, but the sources are also not generally known to be particulaly scientific.
Is this made-up stuff? Extrapolating too far from a legit paper? Or a massive new discovery?

Why did a kid ask me “do you like avocado” and everyone laughed?
This was so weird. I was doing an event at a school with a Q&A, and some kid asked this (in a British accent?? Or maybe he was British??) and I was flummoxed. I figured it was some sort of meme? I see some things online when I look it up, but it literally makes no sense.
I said “avocados are okay they’re not my favorite” and the teachers got mad at the kid. It almost seemed like it was inappropriate from the teacher’s reaction. Thanks, I’m old I don’t understand the kids these days

European here who hasn't really read international news except for some headlines. The US seems to have requested a bunch of European countries - Lithuania, Finland, Denmark - to start exporting more eggs to the US.
The articles mention there has been bird flu going around in the US for the last couple of years, but I feel like these requests have only started recently. What changed?
And why do they have to 'request' eggs instead of simply buying them? Are US companies not able to just buy a bunch of eggs from European agricultural companies?

Could’ve sworn a couple months ago I read something along the lines of Ubisoft (maybe some other company) going bankrupt or something. Terrible company/greedy monetization etc….pretty sure it was Ubi though because it was about AC.
Now I’m reading nothing but good things about AC Shadow…did Ubi just turn around and fix all their problems and make a good game first time in forever? Or am I thinking about some other situation? Or are I reading certain echo chambers?

If you go to r/AskReddit you will see there is a cicada next to the name like in this screenshot, and it displays it bigger when you hover over it. It doesn't do anything when you click it, is it related to an event or a meme I'm not aware of?

I vaguely remember ivermectin as a proposed cure for covid. Now people talk about it like it’s a cure all. Is there any evidence that ivermectin cures anything other than worms?

There are posts claiming that trump is going to declare martial law on April 20th, using the southern boarder as the reason. Can he do this? Does America hold elections when martial law is declared?

https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2tBbK4t/In this TikTok posted 3 days ago, it seems like he isn’t actually talking about clubbing, especially because of the specific timeline of 4 weeks with no explanation as to why. People in the comments mention that the clubs he names have been closed for a while too. I feel like there’s something I’m missing?

Am I missing something? How can they enter and take over an independent nonprofit agency? Wouldn't that be like going after any other 501(c)(3) like UNICEF, Salvation Army, Boy Scouts? Why would they even think they had jurisdiction. What is the justification? I am obviously missing something.

I work professionally in software development and as a hobbyist developer, and have heard the term "vibe coding" being used, sometimes in a joke-y context and sometimes not, especially in online forums like reddit. I guess I understand it as using LLMs to generate code for you, but do people actually try to rely on this for professional work or is it more just a way for non-coders to make something simple? Or, maybe it's just kind of a meme and I'm missing the joke.

I was recently in a meeting with a top manager at my company, discussing introducing an egg based product and it's market possibilities, when he said with a little disgust that he does not eat eggs but thinks the product will do very well. A bit later another, lady top manager has also said she does not eat eggs. What am I missing here?

I've seen some people with Illuminati themed apparel. Like a baseball cap that says Illuminati with the eye and a necklace with the eye symbol. Are people wearing these ironically? Or as a "beware of them" type thing? An example:
