One of the more novel takes I’ve heard recently is to describe the current Trump ICE beef up as a war of the Unemployed against the Working Class. He’s literally vacuuming up jobless white men and turning them into an armed force against the migrant labor force.
that indeed is a novel and interesting take
you can block trackers (i use netGuard) and the app will probably still work fine. Same with banking apps
mobilek is nobilek!
i thank me for engaging
they added widget support with the last update
Moreover, Trump introduced major tariff exceptions for some countries. For example, the integrated North American auto industry would have been devastated if he hadn’t decided on 6 March to exempt goods from Mexico and Canada from the 25% levy that had gone into effect two days earlier. Goods from these countries now face no penalty if they are imported under the US-Mexico-Canada agreement.
This softening was predictable. US business would have suffered enormously if Trump had fully implemented the tariffs he had announced, let alone threatened, so it was never likely that he would persist with the worst of them. Trump regularly stakes out extreme negotiating positions, only to back down when the heat is on, even if he hasn’t gotten what he demanded from the other side. In fact, investors’ assumption that “Trump always chickens out” – known as Taco – has become a taunt. But when a madman threatens Armageddon, it is foolhardy to goad him into following through. The tariffs Trump has implemented are still very high.
Why haven’t Trump’s tariffs crashed the US economy?

some people are too lazy to cook and too lazy to admit they’re lazy
excuses written here 🤦
they don’t have time to cook but they’ve time to write about it here. Eat all the shit you want but don’t justify it!
@[email protected] can choose the next theme
and that’s how Santa saved Lebanon from the French and gave them their flags
there was an update 2 days ago and now there’s an (appearance) option to “show all actions in current circle”
launcher became too unstable for me though. i’ll wait for the next update to work on it
a multilingual can write what you wrote. Monolinguals are shaped by the limits of one language (and mostly a poor utilitarian corner of that language.) They can’t think of something with which they have no words for or don’t even feel like they’re missing words for something they need to communicate
one of its “powers” is that it doesn’t belong to a certain nation (consider académie française for contrast)
it’s not even the “native” language of the country that made it globish. There are native speakers in different countries and none of these variations invalidate others.
consider Indian English, consider Tok Pisin! 🤯
I grew up knowing the most popular language, why would I learn some backwater dump of a language like french only spoken by like 3.8% of humans unless I’m going to go live there or in one of the places they fucked over? Mandarin I could get, same with Spanish just due to total surface area and the best Venn diagram result. But there are so many little languages in the world and humans have finite time to live.
because, if nothing else, it would make your English better
Middle English borrowed vocabulary extensively from French dialects, which are the source of approximately 28 per cent of Modern English words, and from Latin, which is the source of an additional 28 per cent.
when you learn more about a language that influenced “your language”, those borrowed words open up and gain more meaning. You master their intricacies and start using them with more tact
thanks for taking the time to write a thoughtful comment.
Can you elaborate on “English is really afraid of hiatus and will do anything to avoid it"? I can’t understand what you mean by this and i’m very curious. Sounds interesting.
The sheer amount of vowel phonemes
French and German do “a lot of vowels” properly
i wouldn’t consider french vowels to be properly done with regional differences and nasal complications in addition to using 3 vowels to pronounce 1 with mute consonants here and there. What a mess. But i’ve met people who can see precision in that madness 🤷
what does your other head think about this?
another question would be: Now that your government has a face and a name for that telephone you’re using, what other information can they get through boogle’s trackers and what are they using it for?
