Yep, I was right. Also, notice how any deficit below 10 percent is rounded up to 10, to make it easier for the bullshit "reciprocal tariffs." The ones in negative percentage points are net importers. Trump is punishing net importers. 🙄

I found out why Cambodia is so high, and it's really stupid. It's just because Cambodia exports much more to the US than it imports. "In 2024, Cambodia exported goods worth $9.92 billion to the US, up 11.4%, while US imports to Cambodia amounted to $264.15 million, up by 2.7%. Total bilateral trade volume between the two nations reached $10.18 billion, a rise of 11.2% over 2023." https://m.phnompenhpost.com/national/cambodia-tops-list-of-new-trump-tariffs-49-#:~:text=In 2024%2C Cambodia exported goods,rise of 11.2% over 2023. 264.15m divided by 9.92b is about 2.7 percent. This mean the US has about a 97 percent trade deficit, which Trump is calling a tariff against the US. The sad thing is the average American won't understand the simple math involved here. This is one of the many reasons Republicans are gleefully gutting the Department of Education.

It's ok. Syphilis is curable and you won't be permanently deferred. Try again next year. It is a selfless thing to do. This once happened to fuggs.

This awkward mongoloid looking freak is supposed to represent the virtues of the Aryan race. Such ostentatious retardation. 🙄 -
China, Japan, and Korea plan to jointly respond to US tariffs. Good job Trump. Making Asia great again, at the cost of American global influence. https://www.reuters.com/world/china-japan-south-korea-will-jointly-respond-us-tariffs-chinese-state-media-says-2025-03-31/

Older people, the most likely voters, are worried about their social security and medicare. These people do remember the old days of the Democrat party too. I will be cautiously optimistic pessimistic. -

I'm interested in reading this book called Caste that compares the caste system in India to Nazi Germany and racism in America. It is interesting to note that Martin Luther King Jr. went to India and was deeply influenced by his experience there. It's such a shame that these kind of correlations are considered niche and only are brought up at the college level, which is increasingly becoming less valued in this country. "Freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed." MLK Jr. -

In Canada, liberals are red and conservatives are blue. Conservatives were almost guaranteed to win until Trump was inaugurated.

I thought the UK would have to suffer at least two decades before rejoining the EU, but I think they can leverage America's nonsense into rejoining sooner. It probably would be best for all of Europe. It would be extra lulzy to happen around the 250th anniversary of the US.

I just remembered one episode of Detective Conan / Case Closed, where Conan goes to Osaka. In the English dub aired on adult swim, they changed Osaka to Alberta. So stupid. 🙄 -

Palak paneer. I ate no meat today. I love how most Indian vegetarian dishes don't use eggs either. -
So the Consumer Financical Protection Bureau gets dismantled and Doordash will now offer financing. We moved from subprime mortgages to food delivery apps. What a fucking joke.
