    It’s so odd to me. Him as a person is easily the biggest reason I dislike him (and it’s a long list). But I’ve spoken to multiple people about that very thing and have gotten some truly odd responses. I’ve been told that they wouldn’t want their children to grow up and be like him. That they wouldn’t want to work for him as a boss. That they wouldn’t trust the things that he says. And that they wouldn’t want their family or friends to behave the same way as far as the trash talking and being… very liberal with the truth.

    But somehow, he’s still the best president we’ve ever had and an amazing, strong, intelligent person. They trust his decisions and think he’s the perfect man for the job of fostering foreign relations. I simply cannot make heads or tails of this. It’s like people somehow have lower standards for the president of the United States as a friend, family member, or coworker.

    Random question, but when you have an image like this with a ton of that fuzzy noise stuff and then you try to put an image into it without any fuzzy noise crap, what’s the best way to do it? Basically, how do you match noise when compositing images?

    I’ve found some ways to do it online that are decent but it almost always comes out different. Like you can usually totally tell the image doesn’t belong there.




  • I watched this Maher thing and I really don’t get why anyone cares at all. He basically said trump wasn’t a giant douche in person like he is on tv and online. And I totally believe that. Does that really surprise anyone? He’s 100% the type of guy that would smile to your face and say your great and then talk mad shit behind your back. Call your mother a whore on truth social and then the second you see him he’d say he regretted it or it’s fake news or he didn’t actually mean it. I mean just look at zelensky, he talked MAAAAAD shit online for like weeks leading up to that and when they finally met he was asked “why did you call president zelensky a dictator?” And Trump’s answer? “Did I say that? I can’t believe I said that. Next question.”

    So yeah, I totally buy that he’d be mild mannered and even reasonable in private with some people. But once you turn your back or if he has a little army of ass kissers with him he will immediately change his tune. I feel like everyone has met a guy like that.











  • It’s not a loophole. And it’s not quite the tariff hack it’s made out to be here. There’s no tariffs sure. But tariffs will undoubtedly increase the price of the item when it is bought the first time which means it will then cost more in the secondary market. Still, buying things second hand is fantastic and is highly, highly underutilized in the current climate.


  • I mean he covers that in the article. He straight says the tariffs will bring in money and then the new manufacturing will bring in more on top of that:

    Those tariffs next year will make us $1 trillion, in addition to the $1 trillion thousands of companies are going to relocate back into the United States,

    I still genuinely am not sure if he legitimately understands tariffs. Like, surely he knows they are paid by the importer. He has to right? But time and time and time again he says that other countries will pay the money. I’m assuming he’s just lying but I can’t even tell anymore.

    Regardless this $1 trillion he’s claiming are absolutely just a tax on Americans.


  • To add into that, most homeless are just normal people that fell on hard times, you won’t see them cause they don’t want to be a bother. You see the crazies because… Well they’re crazy. Gigantic assholes like musk assume that since you see crazy homeless people wandering outside, then obviously ALL homeless people are crazy violent lunatics. He is the smartest person in the world after all.
