I dunno. What I’d suggest doing is going to the library and asking the librarians there.
I have never been steered wrong when it comes to book recommendations from librarians. Even when the books aren’t something I’d have picked on my own.
Leave Bondi out of this. She has trouble with math, not cake.
Wanna bet they’re snorting all the confiscated shit over there?
They arrested trump?!?
that’s jut it, though.
They’re not saying the 4 years is a loss. the producers outside of the US… they’re just going to ship to new markets, and when things get less insane, then they come back. that’s all they need to do. Spinning up production in the US is expensive, costly, and it’ll take more time to complete than the whole reason for it will last- presumably.
and if it lasts longer than four years, that’s probably going to be even worse, because then, well, yeah. the best case scenario is you get to write off all those losses. Worst case? it can get whole hell of a lot uglier as you lose IP and find yourself competing against your own designs.’
So trump’s tariffs is driving imports away and killing local development of production at the same time.
to put it in the simplest terms, it’s fucking stupid.
The order noted that the court was acting on its own initiative and was not responding to a request from anyone
That’s a totally legitimate thing to say when nobody was really asking all that. Totally.
Edit also from the article:
An FBI affidavit says Dugan was “visibly angry” over the agents’ arrival and called the situation “absurd” before leaving the bench and retreating to her chambers. It says she and another judge later approached members of the arrest team inside the courthouse with what witnesses described as a “confrontational, angry demeanor.”
After a back-and-forth with officers over the warrant for Flores-Ruiz, Dugan demanded they speak with the chief judge and led them away from the courtroom, the affidavit says.
After directing the agents to the chief judge’s office, investigators say, Dugan returned to the courtroom and was heard saying words to the effect of “wait, come with me” before ushering Flores-Ruiz and his lawyer through the jury door into a nonpublic area.
It needs to be noted that the same afadavit said that they the DEA agents that were acting on behalf of ICE also saw Flores-Ruiz in the public halway going to the the elevator that went to the parking garage. Where they followed Flores-Ruiz onto the public elevator… and watched him get off, and did not arrest him at any point. Instead they got off on the next level and ran up the stairs like dumbasses.
In short, the case is total bullshit.
oh. and apparently, the door that Flores-Ruiz used to leave the courtroom leads to a hall, which is public, that goes out to the main public hall (where the DEA agents spotted him,) and in a different direction, out to the private hall for juries.
I’m a little surprised that the AP is spewing the same bullshit that the trump admins are. fucking hell. read the damn affidavit already. pay some kid to be a corespondent for a day and look at the layout. It’s not rocket science.
and you think that’s an argument to spin up new factories? not really.
If the US collapses into complete fascism, everyone inside is either going to be cut off from the global market. for a foreign company, spinning up factories in the US, when, in four years, they might literally get those investments yeeted from them is stupid. and that’s really the best case.
I think Boston knows what they need to do. have a tesla party.
It certainly has nothing to do with the bribes.
I submit we should go to a d20, and say roll a nat 21.
with this die:
(sorry, if I don’t laugh, I’m going to cry.)
why? it costs millions of dollars to construct new factories. Maybe billions, depending on the industry. It takes 7+ years to bring a new factory online. more to get all the kinks worked out and at full production.
Trump is supposed to be in office for only 4 years, at best, after which his tariffs will go away. it would be easier to simply just not ship to the US. which is how trade partners responded to the Hawley-Smoot Act in 1930, and which made the Great Depression that much harder to get out of.
This time it’ll be teslas. Teaslas?
the recruiter should have vetted them better. Part of the reason to go through a recruiter is to avoid these things.
was it shipped by USPS? Then mark it “wrong address” and let them pick it up. if you want to go the extra mile, bring it to a post office.
If it was shipped by someone else, call them, they’ll probably come out. alternatively, they’re probably in your neighborhood. check for a shipping label with an address or something and walk it over.
if they confirm it was sent to your address. congratulations. free shit.
Has there been any conclusive study that shows raw feeding actually helps anything- and more importantly, helps enough to overcome the very real risks involved?
But what about elevenses?
Then consider investing in a brush and something like a Merkur 34C.
i had a really bad experience with the 34c. Basically the posts for the blade to ‘register’ to, allowed a relatively significant amount of play I’ve never seen in any other razor. This made seating it and using it at the ‘proper’ angle impossible- it also tended to make one side vastly more aggressive than the other, since a significant amount of blade was exposed on one side and not-enough on the other. (or worse, it was twisted so that on half the edge was too exposed and the other half was not, on both sides the blade.)
maybe they fixed it, but, I sort of doubt it.
the alchohol is there to kill to the bacteria- which is the immediate cause of acne. most aftershave splashes will also include some glycerin to re-moisturize the skin.
if you don’t want a scented product, you can do IPA and then some aftershave balm instead.
depending on how hot one’s water comes, soaking in faucet-hot water is enough here. just squeze out most the water first. if one does microwave… gotta be careful as the heating may be uneven. another option is an electric kettle (as for tea,) in the bathroom.
Show this meme to a grammarian and they explode.
And then they start spinning in their graves, haunted by the tortured grammar.
Which, then, you can hook up a genset and get free energy, breaking physics.
