  1. From that article https://www.wired.com/story/elon-musk-government-young-engineers/ The 19 year old The coup has l ready happened. Musk’s people have the keys to the government. The President Musk memes aren’t memes, they are more true than people realize.
  2. Go to the West Coast. Almost 50% of people in Vancouver were born outside of Canada. It’s the kind of place that would make Musk shit his pants over them losing their culture to outsiders, but it’s a decent melting pot from the few times we visited my in-laws there. Canada is not the Trailer Park Boys. Well, parts are, but they sure as fuck couldn’t afford to live in the nice areas.
  3. There is also noise about banning it nationally somehow, and that’s the fucking bat signal for /r/DataHoarders to get to work and download every version they can find and post it aorund the internet.
  4. Sorry, I’ll put him on ignore as well.
  5. I don’t really like to make fun of the mentally ill for being mentally ill, except maybe OU fans, but people like him make it so easy when they fabricate conspiracy theories out of the dumbest shit
  6. Are Denmark and Canada preventing us from sailing the Arctic seas? Is there a reason to even talk about tariffs with them?
  7. GRU, there is absolutely nothing that justifies us making a move on Greenland. Hell, Denmark sent troops to Afghanistan with us after 9/11, and their troops were with us inAfghanistan from 2002 - 2021, longer than many other countries, and far longer than they needed to. If you’d fucking do your own research, you’d understand that the loudest voices pushing for us to move on Greenland all need lots of natural resources to make more money. But you types not only hate the free market, you don’t believe in doing your own research. If you did your own research, you’d wonder why Greenland is so important now to even talk about taking it, versus the first time around, and then a lightbulb would click over your head that “oh yeah the tech bros are investing heavily in AI and batteries and need to mine the shit out of Greenland”. But don’t worry, I’m sure tariffs against Denmark are coming.
  8. State of Texas bans it from government devices, along with some Chinese social media stuff. Private citizens can still access it, of course. There are rumblings elsewhere that they are going to try and block it for everybody, but also that there is resistance and Constitutional issues. https://m10news.com/texas-becomes-first-state-to-ban-chinese-ai-app-deepseek-and-social-media-platform-rednote/
  9. Based on how Canada reacted, and their move towards replacing American trade with European and Asian trade, it’s not just inflation, it’ll be job losses.
  10. Greenland is about making tech and mining companies more money with Greenland’s resources and you know this is not about our national security GRU. No country is fucking invading the US. GRU, I don’t know what it is about you types, but you hate the free market. Enough money would probably get Denmark to open up more resource extraction, and if you types cared about the Panama Canal so much, you’d push American companies to throw money at it like the Chinese did.But no, rather than let the free market do its thing, you’d rather try and use our military or economic power to have our way with small countries. If we did what people like you wanted, we’d be no different than the fucking Russians wanting to take Ukraine’s natural resources.
  11. Only 10% and according to a talking head on TV I saw in passing while waiting at shop earlier, a lot of the contracts with Chinese were already paid for, so the price increases will take longer. We moved really fast this morning to stop them. We can pretend it was because of what Canada and Mexico agreed to long before today, but when the stocks started dropping, there was a whole lot to finding out.
  12. I don’t know. They moved pretty fucking fast this morning when the stock markets started dropping. It had to have spooked the hell out of them. If we start getting close to summer or fall when various crops are being harvested and this happens again, with the prospect of American crops rotting away somewhere because we can’t ship them out, the markets will really tank. Theres also another issue - if Canada decides it’s worthwhile to cut out as much American aluminum and steel as possible, long term that’s going to fuck a lot of big American companies. This might be a card you get to play once, but if you play it again, you will make the worst case scenarios happen - Canada and Mexico will start looking to cut America out of their lives as much as possible.
  13. 1234. Normally this stuff is confined to the places that these types congregate and not out into the wide, wide world of the internet, because they know they’ll get mocked for being incels posting batshit stuff.
  14. All it takes is the markets dropping and American businesses being destroyed if the tariffs remained. And we all predicted well in advance that the markets would drop and American businesses would be threatened. My guess is there’ll be no more tariffs going forward.
  15. Just wait, Musk has infected Texas - Texas is setting up a DOGE agency modeled after Leon’s, and Texas is also establishing a Bitcoin reserve. Becauee let’s do thing that end up costing the taxpayers more while making people like Leon even richer.
  16. Now that Musk apparently has some control over Treasury payment systems, we know where things are headed - Bitcoin is going to go To the Fucking Moon!
  17. His lawyers admitted in court that Twitter is struggling to attract well-paying advertisers. Bitcoin took a bit of a hammering this morning with the tariff fuckery. There's talk of Canada and Mexico banning twitter. None of those things are good for President Musk. But on the bright side, VP Trump signed an EO that he says could be used by the government to buy into TikTok, so Leon will control TikTok as well.
  18. Holland vs Denmark.
  19. Never thought Alex Jones had an account here, but I was wrong.
  20. It’s now more of a tent in her parents backyard, because I think they were worried about the whole rest stop thing. You can get free proctology exams from some guys behind the Hancock HEB.
  21. So after the stock market started shitting itself, apparently Trump backed down on tariffs against Mexico for a month. https://www.cnbc.com/2025/02/03/trump-tariffs-mexico-canada-china-sheinbaum-responds.html
  22. Some Canadian areas removing US liquor from shelves https://www.reddit.com/r/mildlyinteresting/comments/1igblx3/liquor_stores_in_british_columbia_have_pulled/ https://www.reddit.com/r/Manitoba/comments/1ig5quf/45_of_americas_entire_alcohol_export_market_just/
  23. The story behind that t-shirt is even cooler. This whole article is worth a read and the book is great. https://alanpaul.substack.com/p/how-the-allman-brothers-band-helped
