I lost mine on Thursday... I'm trying to think of it as a comedy of errors, but I admit, it stings a little.

That's in the system we're used to. They're banking on now taking over the entire fucking thing. Losing some fake money to gain all of the real power is definitely what they're lining up for.

It doesn't necessarily give them more money as the tariffs regulate what we're required to pay a supplier for a good. There's not like a government fund it goes to or anything (unless my understanding is wrong). But not buying US products outside and inside the states is basically accelerationism on the economy. Which will hopefully wake people up so we can take this shit back for the people (and not just destroy all civilization which is what recent accelerationism has been about). The faster people rise up the less we have to rebuild, hopefully.

Everyone should be boycotting the US, especially those inside of the US.

It's not a hard science. It's still a real science. Unless you're a scientologist then your opinion doesn't matter anyway.

I'm really excited to jump in but I'm just starting to move houses. So I'll keep playing 1.0 in whatever down time I've got and wait for my sweet new setup and 1.1. And I'll be playing with a controller (it always felt like it should be a controller game).

That's because Trump's US is actually Putin's US. And Putin wants Europe weak and malleable.

Come on UK. We need a Bond. James Luigi Bond to right this ship.

That's assuming he's even considering that there will be future elections. Or at least elections in which the oligarchs have a chance of losing (I'm still betting Trump plans on living forever and never ceding power because narcissist).

These stories constantly operate on the assumption that Trump is a rational actor with reasonable goals. Neither is remotely true. He's a fucking idiot who rarely fully understands what he's doing and Russia and oligarchs are easily working his ego and pushing him to destabilize everything.

Yeah, I also should have used "sparkling authoritarianism" it would have been funnier and more contextual.
