When I posted that initially it was from my phone and the article had literally just posted so I couldn’t post the archived paywall free link I’ll edit the post with a link to the nytimes article

Sowwy! Breaking the news while I’m at work is tough but fixed

This is going to end with the definition of autism being changed to… whatever this is so they can say they got rid of all the autism huh

Edit: wait that’s too optimistic they’re going to say they ended autism by ending autistic people huh

Okay this is actually…. Big fucking news?

Edit: it’s a MAYBE but still cool! I know science news Isn’t exactly the purpose of this thread but it seems possibly big enough to warrant a comment here

nytimes

he’s running

More like a death sentence than a life sentence.

hmmmmm

Check again.

CHICKEN JOCKEY

lol admitting defeat already huh

The EU was about to retaliate anyway but because they didn’t do it yet they get “rewarded” even though they were about to do it anyway? Totally fair

I think at this point the market is so jaded and confused they won’t price it in until Americans start noticing the prices change/material economic damage manifests

Edit: nvm we’re crashing

10 percent for literally everyone except China which will be at 125 percent

Even though it’s the slop equivalent of its time I have so much nostalgia for these gaming magazines omg my 14 year old self used to get so excited when I saw a new EGM in the mailbox

It’s absolutely bananas how bad these motherfuckers are at communicating what they’re doing.

“90 day pause” was literally a media invention that they ran with based on a tweet that completely made up the idea that he was doing it… somehow that became a self fulfilling prophecy lmao

So… even during the pause it’s still 10 percent tariff on literally every country?(sans the ones that are already sanctioned anyway like Russia)

That’s still gonna have a palpable impact on prices… the market is mooning anyway though because it shows trump is capable of getting cold feet on this and would probably rescind even these tarrifs the second it gets bad for Americans.

So he continues to be full of shit I guess.

It has been his thing for a long long long time here’s some footage of him talking about tarrifs in regards to Japan during the 80s boom https://youtu.be/n7st2oG5AwU

We have actually for reals entered a period known as the cool zone

Edit:

Cool zone denialists in shambles rn

I think the carrier pays them then they collect the money from you when they deliver if I’m not mistaken.

Trade deficits have always been his ‘thing’ like the whole get Mexico to pay for the wall thing was conceived through this idea that because a trade deficit existed with Mexico we would simply put a 20 percent tariff on imports and use that to pay for the wall and now it appears he has just followed this faulty logic to the end conclusion which is fuck it do it to everyone we’re gonna be freakin rich!
