I just am in the mood to destroy my life and drag others with me with all the poor coping skills I have managed to learn through my years of unchecked trauma and depression.

One of my companies informed me they cancelled a $2m conference in Florida. Why ?

They didn’t feel they could pass on the incremental cost of tariffs. So they are cutting expenses.
