Non-political tariffs thread
Maybe this will clear it up. I bought a mountain bike in Scotland. I could have bought a UK made brand or a US made brand. Either way I had to pay 20% VAT on the bike. However, when I left the UK, I got that money refunded because I kept my receipts. It didn't matter where the bike was made.

Let Them Eat Cake: The Billionaires Thread
Much to the point of the policy failure mentioned above, even if one billionaire showed true altruism, an individual should not be capable of significantly affecting public policies and directing large amounts of money to groups, whether that includes taking care of the poor, purifying a village's drinking water, installing electrical generation, etc. When an individual can influence at such a scale it becomes rife for fuckery.

Trump’s America
I was worried about the same thing traveling internationally this summer, but luckily my wife got approved for citizenship last week. Ceremony is next week. Wish I was more proud of her becoming a citizen, but given the state of things it was more of a box to check. I think her mother is afraid of coming here to visit this year. I have a friend on green card that was supposed to fly to the UK for work this past Sunday and he canceled his flight and sent an American citizen to give his presentation. This is also affecting my work, as some clients, who require a visa to visit us, can't get an appointment with the consulate for 6 months. This means we can't kickoff the contract with them until late this year and guarantees that we don't get the badly needed revenue from them until next year.

Songs that hit you or someone you love in the feels
Some good sad songs here. Especially Jason Isbell "If We Were Vampires" and TVZ "Waiting Around to Die". On the topic of past relationship songs as some have shared before:

Let Them Eat Cake: The Billionaires Thread
It was a random sharing of emotional vulnerability implying that we shouldn't worship billionaires or anyone else with an important job title based on title alone. But let's stan for billionaires. Maybe they will see this and hire us to serve them. God willing.🤞

Elon Musk: Nazi traitor piece of shit [Confirmed]
So a few weeks ago, the astronauts were supposedly stranded in space because of political reasons in the previous administration and SpaceX could supposedly have gotten them at any time: https://www.independent.co.uk/space/elon-musk-andreas-mogensen-stranded-astronauts-b2701764.html Who is the asshole gonna blame now: https://apnews.com/article/nasa-stuck-astronauts-spacex-boeing-4ac5006ba792eb86aaccb12f8174493c

Lauren Boobert - Tits and a Gun
I had to try ChatGPT after the idea in the above post... Lauren was drunk the night she messed around in the theater, Management said, "Ma'am, you gotta go." But before she could grab her purse and exit respectably, She flipped ‘em off and screamed about the damned ol’ woke… (Chorus) And she’ll hang around as long as folks elect her ('lect her, 'lect her, 'lect her), Blamin’ libs every time that she fucks up. Vapin’ in the dark and gropin’ on the balcony, Knowin' she don't have to answer to anyone.

Last time I had an MMR booster was for a work trip to SE Asia. Ironically, I'm now on a work trip in Indonesia and probably safer than back in Texas.

Johntay Cook dismissed from the football team.
Not saying I've used the disposal option, but accidents happen. I was flying back to Texas from Arkansas the day after this year's UT-Arkansas game. The night before I had sampled a friend's Arkansas legal pen and apparently placed it in my pocket. We had been drinking all day before, during, and after the game. As I am walking up to TSA counter the next day, wearing the same pair of shorts, I reach into my pocket for my ID and I pull out said pen and ID.

Drunk Pontiac drivers are better drivers than Tesla drivers

Holy shit. Now I can't unsee Mike Lindell.- Drunk Pontiac drivers are better drivers than Tesla drivers
I have been complaining for the past five years about Tesla and Subaru drivers in Austin. Hang out in the left lane and don't use turn signals. I feel validated.- Justin Tucker: The new Old Freak Nasty?
He just wants to see a video of him doing it while holding two forms of government ID, having a police officer there to verify the whole thing, four or five of his buddies taking notes, and Tucker's grandma to confirm his identity.- Xavier Worthy - Chiefin'

The picture of Roethlisberger reminds me of a story from a buddy in Pittsburgh. A girl friend of his and some other friends and him are hanging out at a bar and Roethlisberger shows up. He eventually gets her to leave with him. Takes her to a nice hotel and has a "standby" room always available. Anyways, they go up to the room and she goes in the bathroom to freshen up. She comes out and Roethlisberger is standing at the edge of the bed with no clothes on stroking his dick and looks at her and says "where do you want it?"- Declassification of JFK, RFK, and MLK Assassination Files
Well, we all need someone we can lean on- Water, water, everywhere ..
Agreed on getting rid of lawns. We also need to do brush control. South Texas, the gulf coast, and much of West Texas in the early 1800s were plains of grassland. Most of East Texas was old growth pine spaced out wide enough where you could drive a wagon through the woods with grasses growing underneath. The hill country was oak mottes with grassland, where cedar (juniper) only existed in the steepest canyons due to protection from wildfires. All of those cedar, mesquite, and huisache trees suck up tons of water. There are places in the hill country/Llano uplift/Concho valley where they have done brush clearing where springs and creeks have begun to flow for the first time in over 100 years. A lot of water issues are due to us fucking up the natural environment. Certainly the large population doesn't help.- Elon Musk: Nazi traitor piece of shit [Confirmed]

When I was a little kid and heard about corrupt governments/officials in the world, my naive, uniformed self thought, at least there is no corruption in the US...well except for in Louisiana. No joke.- Winter Weather 2025 - Arctic Blasts or Sweaty Ass?
I have a friend that uses Subarus for his sales fleet in NM/CO/WY/MT. He was riding with a salesman through a small town in Wyoming and a sheriff pulled them over. When he stepped up to the car, the sheriff looked at them, took a breath and said "Oh, I figured you two for a couple of lesbians."- Hunting 24/25: big bucks and a lot of ducks!
Nice example 686. My dad bought 132 acres a few years ago in the Concho valley, and we see benefits from shooting does and taking care of the bucks. Wish we could feed more protein given the costs and neighbors. We still should shoot more does. See photo for deer with best potential. I think he is only 3.5 yo. Speaking of parents, my mom has part of 300 acres down on the coastal bend. Thinking of going down to Refugio County this weekend. Anyone have any recent reports from down there? I normally just watch deer and enjoy the history and solitude while camping out there. - Lauren Boobert - Tits and a Gun
