Ceaselessly undertaking various projects.










In what should be described as a miracle, we have now received 80% of the tariffs we paid the US government, with interest. What a episode in US history, from 145% tariffs to the cheating to Trump's own cabinet buying refund rights, for them to be refunded with interest. Someone personally tried to buy our refunds for 50% after the Supreme Court had already ruled... Did consumers get shafted in the process? Almost certainly. Will prices come down now that companies have received these refunds? Almost certainly not. Especially since container rates are spiking, hard, like 2022 hard. A big unpredictable mess, best play this game conservatively and never take it too seriously, but the rules change like the wind blows.



Hands down the most American thing I’ve ever seen
