Who could have seen this coming? We had no indication something like this could happen.
Seeing Dollar General still down feels good, they were malignantly expanding everywhere and bringing more globalistic slop into places that don't need it. The fact that they sell food barely excuses it.
 
So I flipped my bitch switch at a neighbor yesterday. It actually felt good to do so lol

The neighbor brought up the tariffs and then told me with a straight face, "And I read on Facebook that Russia is getting 0% tariffs! Just further proof that Trump is in bed with Putin, what else is new?"

I told the neighbor, "Russia has sanctions, dumbass." And yes, I actually called her a dumbass. The conversation ended civilly but awkwardly.

Oh well, guess I burned that bridge. No fucks given anymore. :story:
honestly i'd keep pushing that bridge

Fucking KILL Dollar General. Fucking KILL Dollar Tree. Total Dollar Death to these faggot Spirit Halloween-esque slug parasites that puppet the corpse of a better business in order to sell you the dogshittest things ever crafted in the nightmares of men who create.
 
Your suggested time skip was correct. This is fucking amazing. Thank you. Watching Max squirm at the mention of his dad is some serious schadenfreude.
Is this why all of a sudden everyone on X is suddenly talking about how Tim Pool thinks that random black criminal killing a human teen at a track meet was self defense? Change the subject et all?

TOTAL WEEB DEATH and TOTAL GEEK/NERD/MANCHILD DEATH

All new pre-orders from AmiAmi, GoodSmile Company, HobbyLink Japan and even Big Bad Toy Store have issued Tarrif hike warning from China.

If you pre-ordered a 1/7 Statue at $113 with $18 shipped. Your figure could be between 40% - $158.20 to 125% - $254.25 plus $18 shipping.
Why the hell can't they just make them in Japan (better yet A M E R I C A)? These are typically small production figures and models, with the exception of models/figures that are making gundam numbers.
Ma. K. models basically come in waves of like 3 models for half a year for example. Coomers state side literally 3D print their own figures, so it is not like an official company can't easily produced something well in their own country.
 
I hope it passes the Senate because then the seething from John Roberts could be heard 'round the world

Bullshit, you know he'll just let out a sigh of relief since he no longer has to even look at it. This way he doesn't have to rock the boat for either side and his hands are washed of an annoying situation he and the SC didn't want to fuckin touch.

I don't understand why some corpos write these long-ass documents in emails that actually cause more confusion than they need to.

Here's how the Big Bad Toy Store owner should have done his email:
*keep first paragraph*

Due to the recent tariffs, we're going to have to raise the prices on our products that come from any newly-tariffed country. I hate how I have to raise prices on all of you, and I want you to know that the moment the tariffs go away, we will readjust accordingly. To be as transparent as possible, we're adding a section on your receipt so you can check how much of the cost is due to the tariffs.

*keep last paragraph*
It only takes 1 paragraph to concisely explain the situation. You don't need 8 paragraphs bloviating about how tariffs are a "tax on the consumer" and whatnot.

Better yet, just don't ever make them.

all people have to do is wait. Beleive it or not I prefer too eat actual food, I cant eat and survive off my 3rd party transformer slop. People will stop buying since it isnt a necessity. Prices will be lowered eventually since no one will buy and corporation will eat the cost.

And everybody clapped
 
Why are you carrying water for China? No one here is saying that Wall street doesn't share some blame. China has done everything in their power to reduce Americas manufacturing, probably including bribing our politicians. So Fuck Wall Street and China too.
It's extra funny because the majority of the thread for the past few days has been "Fuck yeah line go down FUCK WALL STREET MAGA" because everyone here hates wall street and the issue is complicated enough it can't be boiled down to one easy black-or-white depiction.

Doesn't stop the shills from trying, though.

I saw the BBTS email, fortunately I only buy Gundam kits that are exclusively manufactured in Japan.

Lol, I just realized that this is also probably going to indirectly solve the issue that Bandai has had lately with the chinks bootlegging every desirable kit for like <30% MSRP.

125% tariff + no de minimis = get fucked, Chang.

Honestly, after seeing the video of Jeffrey Spaide killing his neighbors (literally named the Goys), I avoid any and all arguments with neighbors.
