I have two smaller businesses, and I’ve both laid off due to expected decrease in business and bought supplies ahead due to expected shortages.

You’re good putting together that you wouldn’t build a factory right now because uncertainty doesn’t let you predict returns. Not only can you not predict the next president and their tariff policy, I wouldn’t say you can predict trump’s actions tomorrow. I heard an interview John Bolton did today, and he said something along the lines that “trump doesn’t think, he reacts.” Tariffs could be zero or 500% next month or next year or tomorrow. The safe move is to wait and see - and while everyone waits and sees, only small-scale production will start, definitely not enough to sustain demand.

Honestly, if I had the money to build a factory right now, I’d park it and wait to buy one from a company that fails in all this. It would save so much money.

I report a bug each time the lightning happens

I like to hope these guys were tank crews, from back when they had surplus tanks.

If you dried the cheese they might take it. Maybe if you wrapped it in cello tape. Then it would be a lot like mailing a coconut.

Or, and I am just throwing out ideas, what about british football fans and vuvuzelas?

We could always adopt “Lizzie’s in a box”

Assuming I’m snapped back to the same part of the earth, climate-wise that’s ideal in the US PNW coming out of spring. Plenty of berries and food to forage, and I’ll probably impress the natives with my watch and well made clothes. I can probably get the native tribes to metals, and gain acceptance with my magic hand tool that will briefly shine light at night for a few weeks. I don’t know offhand where copper would be, but I know gold is in the streams, and I know how to placer mine, so I can get some electricity going with that and magnetized rocks from lava flows.

I think first contact would be the key.

I assume he is wearing two suits under that one.

Seanchan, and seanchan accesories.

Self dining only one year away.

“Let them ride bike.”

It takes balls to smile like that.

I mean, sue him using his case against advertisers as a basis.

Investopedia is a great resource for things like this: https://www.investopedia.com/terms/d/deathcross.asp

This is a really bad take and makes you sound like you think you’re a qualified battle commander, and I don’t think that was your intent.

That reminds me, what happened to George Santos?

I know - can the person accept hundreds of planets and that ours is less special, or do they need to change a definition (including exceptions) to keep their world view.

It’s useful, helps with the flow of the ideas, and is more like the sentence is spoken.

Congratulations, you’re one of today’s lucky “feels like I’m 10,000.”
