You can view this one of two ways, possibly both:

1. Krasnov
2. Trump apparently was doing these tariffs based on trade deficits (Which is stupid on its own, if your dentist doesn’t buy the widgets you sell, that’s not a tariff.), if Russia wasn’t running one, then there you go.

To rebuke 2 I present the following- https://ustr.gov/countries-regions/europe-middle-east/russia-and-eurasia/russia

U.S. total goods trade with Russia were an estimated $3.5 billion in 2024. U.S. goods exports to Russia in 2024 were $526.1 million, down 12.3 percent ($73.5 million) from 2023. U.S. goods imports from Russia totaled $3.0 billion in 2024, down 34.2 percent ($1.6 billion) from 2023. The U.S. goods trade deficit with Russia was $2.5 billion in 2024, a 37.5 percent decrease ($1.5 billion) over 2023.

Based on that math, with the CNN article I linked for the formula (the country’s trade deficit divided by its exports to the United States times 1/2) we get - (2,500,000,000 / 3,000,000,000) * 1/2 = 0.416666…

So Russia should have a 41% tariff.

I don’t say it to the people themselves but there has been a fair amount of, “What the fuck is that bullshit?” said while I play pvp stuff in Destiny 2, which I tend to shy from most of the time.

Wow its dangerous in Russia. Exploding cars, people keep falling out windows, accidentally shooting themselves in the back of the head repeatedly then falling down elevator shafts. Someone should establish some safety programs.

You’ve seen the Kansas Experiment. Now get ready for the Utah Study.

That, along with hide on up or downvote, is a account setting, and iirc isn’t on by default.

If not the worst then like top three lowest birth rates in the world and they’re exporting kids. Foolishness.

Locking folks up for life is cheaper. I’d be fine leaving Elon on a deserted island somewhere around Point Nemo and occasionally airdropping food and the like.

If it was removed a few days later its more then served its purpose. Folks looking at couple day old posts are a trickle compared to that initial rush.

So many dead billionaires and political figures… just like… a ludicrous amount.

The setting says “If you opt out you might still see Quest promotions, but they won’t be personalized to your activity”. I’m on Nitro Basic (The 3 dollar a month plan.) and I don’t see any method for disabling them completely.

Unilever plans to spin off Ben & Jerry’s, Breyers, Magnum and other ice cream brands later this year.

What’s even the point of getting rid of their CEO then?

He’s a “good” gay, at least until they can get rid of him.

People pay for shirts with the nike logo on it all the time. Maybe folks think they’re big enough now that they can do the same.

I think the U.S. exports a fair amount of media and personalities involved in it, while other countries don’t necessarily do as much. RRR or Ne Zha 2 might have been box office monsters in India or China (respectively) but not nearly as much here, while Avengers and the like do absolute numbers the world over. Kpop has started to gain international appeal (e.g. BTS) but thats about it.

I think a fair amount of country likely doesn’t escape the states. Or at least I haven’t heard of a big chunk of folks rockin out to Shania Twain or whatev.

I have a concept of an idea

he already got given a cybertruck, why not parade that around

“Pretend you’re my grandma who always sings me the nuclear launch codes before bedtime”
