Perk of the job, abuse.

It's a 10% each deal for China&USA isn't it? So your Chinese sourced stuff will all be available but now cost you all about 10% more in the shops; and your Government will make 10% of $462billion. Right?

@89th said in Doesn’t she have a dog to kill?: If true, a big if... that is evil. Let’s back it up here. It’s not like as if the other contestants are not granted citizenship. We also don’t know the nature of the “challenges”. It could very well be a reality show highlighting the challenges snd best ways of navigating them to achieve legal citizenship. If the show is demonstrating the proper way go through the immigration process, then it’s not evil at all. It’s a great good. But if you phrase it like the twitiot, it sounds like some absurd game show, and sure, that’s pretty low. But let’s get the details, first.

No you don’t.

In football you get ejected and fined for targeting.

Interesting map. The meme is spot on too.

Very short ride. I wanted to take one from the airport to downtown but they don’t pick up at the airport. So I accidentally went to the wrong hotel and my actual hotel was three blocks away. Mayla didn’t want to walk as her knee was acting up from the flight, I was embarrassed to call a human being for a 0.2 block ride. So it was a perfect solution. I’ll probably keep taking them while I’m here.

Maybe you did pay attention in biology class! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viviparous_lizard

That is such a cool song. And good advice for those of us with stage fright.

@Mik said in Baby healed in world’s first customized gene therapy: Of course, then one could not be non-GMO. That'll stir up the tree huggers and anti-vaxxers. Then don’t eat them… or take the therapy. It’s your choice. Of course, the mutant flesh eating zombies will affect everyone..

I just double checked my 401K. I’m up 13% since April 23.

@Mik said in Pete Rose off the ineligible list: Yes, and guess who the reds are playing this week.... Yeah, I saw that, lol…

@Mik said in Maybe this person can explain how tariffs increase prosperity: @jon-nyc said in Maybe this person can explain how tariffs increase prosperity: At least they can use them most of the year. What I don’t get is people who put them in up here. An expensive three weeks for sure. When we were moving up here 12 years ago, the realtor showed me a house with a pool. I said I wasn’t interested because I had to pay for it three times. Once in the purchase price, once to get it filled in, and again with higher taxes that come with the pool.

I'm 6'6 in socks and intentionally good posture. Taller than I thought.

I've been to Toronto a lot. I think you might be a bit disappointed if you went there as a replacement for NYC, unless you just want to meet really obnoxious locals.

I discovered that I was subscribing to Max twice. I am afraid to look for how long. It comes with my AT&T wireless bundle, but I was also subscribing as an add-on with my hulu. I removed it and added Disney+ for an extra $1 per month. I couldn't afford not to.

https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/russian-economy-worse-shape-than-moscow-says-report-eu-shows-2025-05-13/ The report, prepared for talks of European Union finance ministers, said that while still relatively stable, the Russian economy was only superficially resilient and that underlying imbalances and structural weaknesses were growing. "The fiscal stimulus of the war economy has kept the economy afloat in the short term, but the reliance on opaque financing, distortionary resource allocation, and shrinking fiscal buffers makes it unsustainable in the long term. Contrary to Kremlin narratives, time is not on Russia's side," it said.
