  • What's crazy is that he was just bragging about having a deal with them. He's so stuck on his tariffs that he's forgetting about "winning" or the appearance of winning. It he just finds an excuse to claim victory and end the tariffs, the average low-information American would believe him.

    So he went back on having a deal. But now they have a deal again.

    Now he looks like a weak loser.

  • The U.S. has become Russia-lite. Literally any non-citizen can be sent off to a torture prison forever for zero reason and with no recourse. (Citizens can too, but it hasn't happened yet.)

  • I thought they made a deal or something.

  • Because they're already not claiming those. So this does nothing. Except if people starting claiming tips and they get rid of the bill, it will make auditing easier.

  • Ideally, start arresting every person who enacts the president's illegal actions. They should have arrested every person in DOGE that illegally occupied any of the government buildings or seized government information.

    Its not going to happen.

  • "Wants to" isn't really what she said. She said she would. Most would.

  • A small correction, they pay a fee on that amount. But the full amount is just a highly volatile investment. So, that's the amount it could cost them.

  • The Democratic Party is just a vessel. It used to be the right wing (relative). Now it's the left wing (relative). Bernie and AOC don't really fit in with the Dems, but they can. Same with Manchin.

    There was a time where I thought a Musk type could rally many behind a weird Libertarian version of the DNC or RNC and shift the landscape. But he just went hard fascist as soon as he publicly aligned with the right.

  • The mayor refused to leave because he was where they authorized him to wait. And then he did leave.

    That arrest is no better.

  • At least we have Northwest Arkansas. Missouri just has alcoholism.

  • I don't understand it for the reason you said. But also, they went out of their way to take a fake theoretical website case with no defendants who had damages just so they could rule on it.

  • I've been riding Adventure Capitalist on my PS5, which doesn't really require fast clicking. But it doesn't have the events, so it's been kind of slow going.

    I'll probably pick this up so I can forget about it for a month and then update.

  • This headline would imply that PS4 users are upgrading to PS5 at almost the same rate that they upgraded or moved to the PS4.

    Honestly, it's pretty surprising considering the PS4 is still kind of a current console. I'd think a lot of people would be satisfied staying with the PS4 and still getting most of the games that are coming out.

  • The Thunderbolts was good even before the reveal. As someone who knew that spoiler (didn't even realize it was a spoiler), I was in no rush to get there. Plus the reveal is "worth it". Neither was true for Red Hulk in BNW.

  • L&T had a lot of higher highs. A lot of the scenes with Gorr were legitimately great. The deleted scene with Zeus was so much better than what made it into the movie.

    The lows were just so much lower. And it's kind of worse for me that there's such good scenes in a structurally solid movie, that's completely undercut by screaming goats, jealous hammer, and orgy not-really-even-jokes. They could legitimately put 10-20 mil into it and make it a great movie if they wanted.

    BNW is fun, the big fight is interesting, but they clearly had no offramp for it. They had no vision with how to use the leader or red hulk. The whole thing is so disjointed, I don't even know how it could be made good. It just sucks that they ruined a couple characters.

  • I didn't hate it like I did Love and Thunder. But it and L&T have the most wasted potential maybe out of all the Marvel movies.

    It'll be a good D+ movie though.

  • So is the 30% on top of the old 20%, or is this a small parcel specific thing?

  • The prohibitively high tariffs are going down. But there's still a 30% tariff tax on U.S. consumers for Chinese goods, up from 19% (Trump 1.0/Biden) and 8% (pre-Trump)

  • I plan on trying out the PS2 emulator on my phone since I have a Backbone. Maybe when I get my next phone upgrade, my old phone will be a dedicated emulator.
