Also only good for ground travel. But you have to go through the same process as a passport, so they’re usually an add on to the passport.

I’m only in mid-six figures and I’ll admit I benefit and the poor suffer. If there was no immigrant labor general goods would cost more, and I’d feel the drag paying more for what is cheaper… like I will soon when we’re all competing with dollars for a share if smaller harvests. I predict we’ll feel it hard around thanksgiving.

The only solutions locally are discovery of more economic ways to produce, or importing from cheaper parts of the world. We’ve been covering our eyes on where the chicken comes from for years, and we’re going to learn a hard lesson by going cold turkey.

More of a slow collapse than a crash. Ever seen a dilapidated house on a country road, parts of the roof caving in, paint chipped, vines covering the yard? We’re working on being that house by slowly letting social and physical infrastructure in the US collapse over time.

Amtrak doesn’t own the rail line in most areas, so the trains are regularly halted to allow commercial cargo to pass. I think the Zepher is last to its destination most of the time.

The difference between a belief and a theory is no one was ever burned at the stake disagreeing about a theory.

20 is nice in freshly washed sheets.

I had a friend go through this; first of all, sorry that happened to you. My understanding is that if you take your anti-virals you’ll have a pretty normal life. The concept of sex is dicey, I understand when you’re not flaring up the risk is small, but it’s still there. They have a normal relationship but avoid sex in flare ups. Be sure to talk to your partners in advance!

Crypto is shit beta now, you trade it like that. The liquidity pool is too small to handle large entry/exit.

Although I agree this is like going to vegas for him.

Is there anywhere to search for web 1.0 apps? The new info would probably be dead, but you could at least have wines through the early 2000’s in it.

I never want to look like something a cop will pay attention to. Better high performance in a boring sedan shell.

There comes a time, thief, when the jewels cease to sparkle… when the gold loses its luster… when the throne room becomes a prison… and all that is left is a father’s love for his child.

In the market we call her “Nance in Advance.”

The most important part of it is “is there anything you’d like to admit, before we take the test?”

I believe that was a stretch goal… the common story has always been that they wanted to take over redistricting after the census, which they really did knock out of the park, catching dems flat-footed.

After they feed I assume they’re a little warm…

I would also like to know who else is in their shower.

Trading stops at the end of day, for accounting purpose. Some traders can still access over-the-counter trades but they are not required to be reported (if I remember correctly) until sometime in the morning of the market they’re made in. You will see some price movement when London and the DAX open.

Watch futures for a good price estimate. ES for SPY and NQ for Nasdaq.

This guy does defense economics but he did a good piece on the tariffs: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nVZ1lcw2bVU

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.

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.
