Somebody has to pay for the cost impact of the upcoming tariffs. 🤦

Don’t you mean “Trump University 220e06” ?

Has Bungie commented on the number of console players for “Edge of Fate”? If not, then I have to suspect that they are seeing a similar percentage drop off on PS and XBox.

The unwritten point here is that if tariffs are cutting the deficit by two trillion dollars and these tariffs are paid for by the consumer, then this plan is essentially a 2 trillion dollar tax increase on the American people.

I wonder why they think Americans will have more money in their pockets?

Out of curiosity, what is your favorite egg dish or dishes?

If you are going to eat lots of them, that would mean a dish for breakfast, lunch and dinner? Oh, don’t forget dessert as well. 😉

You forgot to mention on how unlikely it is that they will even complete those modifications before he is supposed to leave the Presidency. They are still working on the 747’s he specified in 2018 at the cost of $2 Billion EACH. The first one will be ready in 2027.

Congratulations!!! I am looking forward to hearing who it is.

Betamax is another great reference.

What’s a log table, (or any other transcendental table)?

If he knows that, then he’s probably used a slide rule

You could ask him these questions:

Have you ever played a record? If so, at what speed?

How about listening to music on an 8-Track tape?

Have you ever learned Trucker lingo for talking on a CB? (10-4 Good buddy).

What about using “1337 speak” (leet speak), have you used it before?

I think it’s the new smoking section for flights to China and Russia.

Which is worse, facing him twice a year on the Lions or if he went to the Niners, then losing to him in the Playoffs?

One interesting correlation is that States with higher percentages of Medicaid paid births tend to have lower costs of births overall. The possible reason is that Medicaid’s payment structure requires lower cost births, forcing health providers to cut costs for those procedures.

Maybe, but maybe that is more because the trailers look like it is hitting too close to reality. With a President that is deceitful to get what he wants and eventually rampaging through the government destroying everything in anger and revenge for perceived offenses, to insure getting his way.

One thing missing from your article is contextualizing the average ticket price paid today with the average ticket price paid during the opening weekend of the other Marvel movies mentioned. There is a 25% difference over 24 years (www.the-numbers.com/market/).

That said, I am still going to see it

So I guess that saying is true then, that the “devil is in the details”.

You even have the receipts to prove it. 😉

There was never a federal ban on plastic straws that would affect anyone other than the federal Gov starting with ending procurement of plastic straws by 2027 and they would all have to be used up by 2035. So it only affects what the Feds buy. It did not affect states or home usage.

If instead of a red “frame” you meant a red “circle” with a crossing slash, maybe like this might work?

(Unfortunately my iOS markup would not let me lineup the red slash centered on the white stripe, but it should be close enough to get the idea).

This is thinking straight out of the 1800’s colonial/imperial thinking. I don’t think most Americans were thinking of making America like the early to mid 1800’s.

What really bothers me is that this is the same type of thinking/attitude that Putin takes towards Ukraine. 🤦
