  1. Of course they are. You should have seen the days before the longshoreman strike. It's of course been a theoretical discussion point for months. The emails now are: ***URGENT*** Freida's Boss has a board meeting Tuesday and MUST KNOW all impacts.
  2. Even though my personal life(kids sports) is more entrenched in soccer by the day my MLS viewing has gone in the shitter with the Apple Deal. Personally, I think I need advertisements/reminders of games to drive my consumption. I just don't have the timing of games built into my life and brain like CFB, NFL, MLB and NBA. Full disclosure I didn't grow up with soccer and never gave the sport much care until my kids got involved. I watch WAY more EPL than MLS. I know every Sat and Sun Aug to May morning games are going to be on. Probably also ease of access with USA/NBC is a part of it. Apples production is not great as well, feels very sanitized/detached.
  3. Starting my week with half a dozen emails from self important pricks asking for "detailed analysis of tariff impacts" on XYZ and ABC because their bosses boss really needs to know. off to ChatGPT to copypasta some barf and massage it into asshole speak. You're damn right I am going to position every response to be, "buy now, avoid future regret"
  4. ...or I just talked about fight club.
  5. only down 80. The day is going to end green isn't it? LOL.
  6. South Austin's mom has been called a lot of things, but this is beyond the pale...
  7. at face value I agree. Maybe Chip is in get paid mode, seems kind of the opposite of what he was selling when he left UCLA. Dude has always been different so I really don't know. Maybe he wants one more bite at the NFL. He's 61 and fat as fuck so I would assume he's got less than 10 years left.
  8. Now do alignment with the pharmaceutical/drug industry, blood lust war mongering, free speech, fealty to the FBI/CIA Intelligence complex......
  9. Bowel... please. Also don't want any Goodell goons sending letters that end this iteration.
  10. Fascinating you reacted to a post that you have on ignore that wasn’t quoted when you reacted to it. Quite the mystery
  11. Lumber prices going ballistic and fucking that bucolic international trade market has been presented repeatedly in this thread as a direct consequence of these tariffs. I provided context to the reality of US Canada lumber trade in response to a direct post that there isn’t enough timber supply in the US for the US market without logging NF. I also said previously in the thread the academic economists consensus is tariffs don’t work. There are nearly an infinite number of ways this could work out and many are bad. There are going to be massive winners and losers in the short term, that is certain.
  12. Sorry facts about the lumber industry hurt the leftists fe fes
  13. The US and Canada have been in a trade war over lumber for decades. Why would Biden do this? Everything was just perfect, right? https://www.ttnews.com/articles/us-south-lumber-production Ilena Peng and Thomas Seal | Bloomberg News November 4, 2024 2:06 PM, EST The U.S. increased import duties on Canadian softwood lumber by nearly 81% in August, The US could be self sufficient on lumber without touching NF. However other federal and state owned lands would have to be allowed to be harvested and managed. Next biggest constraint is mill capacity and skilled labor.
  14. They had been rolled up years earlier into CanArchy
  15. Sure thing, chief.
  16. There is a tariff thread in CR. fucking spazzing here is hilarious reeeeee!!!!!!
  17. Because someone literally asked the question why they are tariffing CA and Mex. Those are the reasons the administration has given. Speculation beyond that is most certainly CR territory. Which of course y’all are just aching to do. It’s palpable
  18. What difference does that make?
  19. …must be the humidity. It’s all ball bearings, nowadays!
  20. Looks to be on fire as it’s falling based on the ring camera clip of the guy exiting his house
  21. I can’t. His words are fentanyl and illegal immigration. Do those things come in through the Canadian border? I really don’t know nor do I have any idea how they would go about proving they fixed it if it is true. So it does appear the things that they can do is convince Trump they are seriously trying, do nothing or retaliate with their own set of tariffs. The academic economists consensus on tariffs is they don’t work. We are going to find out it appears.
