May Gen X be the last generation cursed by Thomas Midgley Jr
It sounds like the Japanese have downplayed the statements from these companies internally and played them up to the Trump admin. Makes sense but not to the Trump admin
This current government (the Majority) is a civic failure. I think we can all agree on that
And it affects their families.
The part where Mel Gibson frightens a children’s Halloween parade is my favorite
Techbros ruin all sf and fantasy references. Maybe he coulda gone UNIX and called it ‘grepipedia’ which almost sounds like Albanian hooch

This guy does not seem to know that the GOP and Reagan did not support tariffs. His career infers he is a tea partier, and this lack of understanding tracks
This is basically how this man functions: from the unhinged and venal right he crowdsources his thoughts, opinions and actions. Last person he talked to, last thing he saw on a screen

All his actions can be understood this way
