This is an echo chamber.

No, you don’t deserve any of my time other than whatever I choose to use to ridicule the consistently inane stupidity of your posts.

You’re a WUM, but a bad one.

So are pies, bitch :)

Honestly I think you stop rating them at about age 12 over here. The very occasional one at a baseball game or a friend’s BBQ are all I consume.

Only at a barbeque for me. If I go to Fenway, it's always the Italian Sausage with all the fixin's from the "Sausage Guy".

(Who I now realise sounds like a seventies porn star...;)) His damn sausages are good though. Real stuff.
"Fenway Franks" my arse.

At Oracle or whatever we’re calling where the Giants play nowadays we have all sorts of upscaly-non-ballparky things to eat, as one might expect.

I’ve only been to a game at Fenway once but was in Boston this week and went on a run down around that park in the fens and past Fenway. What a place. A classic.

Go on, I'll bite. Elon Musk isn't someone I'd naturally associate with emotional regulation. What's he had to say on the subject?

Apologise For not answering you earlier and i would have posted his video if i had the faintest idea how to do that, however the point was that if hatred of someone or an idea takes over your though process you lose the ability to think radical in moments of stress.
Does that sound right?

Yeah the Fens is a nice area all right. Lots of greenery and really not a lot of crime. Nice neighbourhood to run in.

Trump's Rant Against China Sends Global Markets Reeling​

Global stock markets plunged on Friday after Donald Trump accused China of launching an unprecedented wave of export controls on rare earth elements and other key materials, escalating tensions between the world's two largest economies and sparking fears of a global supply chain shock

In a lengthy post on Truth Social, Trump claimed that Beijing has begun sending formal letters to governments around the world outlining plans to impose restrictions on the export of rare earths and "virtually anything else they can think of, even if it's not manufactured in China." He described the move as "sinister and hostile," warning that it could "clog the markets" and disrupt industries globally.

"Nobody has ever seen anything like this," Trump wrote. "There is no way that China should be allowed to hold the world ‘captive,' but that seems to have been their plan for quite some time, starting with the ‘magnets' and other elements that they have quietly amassed into somewhat of a monopoly position."


Markets react swiftly​

Trump's comments sent shockwaves through financial markets. Global indices dropped. Commodity markets moved violently as well.

Rare earth elements are essential inputs for industries ranging from defense to renewable energy and consumer electronics. China dominates the sector, accounting for more than 80% of global production and refining. Any restrictions would ripple through global supply chains, particularly in sectors dependent on high-performance magnets, batteries, and advanced electronics.

A sudden escalation​

Trump emphasized that the move came as a surprise, noting that U.S.–China relations had been "very good" over the past six months. He said he had not spoken to Chinese President Xi Jinping and suggested that their planned meeting at the APEC summit in South Korea in two weeks may now be canceled.

"I have always felt that they've been lying in wait, and now, as usual, I have been proven right," Trump wrote. "One of the policies we are calculating at this moment is a massive increase of tariffs on Chinese products coming into the United States. There are many other countermeasures under serious consideration."

Beijing has not yet issued an official statement on the matter, and details of the letters cited by Trump have not been made public. Investors are now bracing for potential retaliatory measures from Washington, including higher tariffs and targeted financial sanctions.

If the U.S. wants to improve its relations with China, it needs to disregard the factor of rare earths. The resumption of rare earth exports can only be the outcome of improved relations, not the cause.
But they are so fucking dumb that they cannot learn anything, even something as simple as not making trouble for themselves.

Yes mate, when a savoury pie is done well, including in good pubs and restaurants, then it’s on another planet to the mass produced shite.

And my mum’s pies are fucking mint too!

Thought I'd pop on this thread to see how things were going, pretty much the same, the haters continue to hate.
What some people need to understand about Donald Trump is he is not a politician, he's used to getting things done.
When he uttered those two little words "AMERICANS FIRST" he cast the opposition away because he read the mood of the country.
Go woke go broke.
Law and order is the rule of the day, if you don't believe me then listen to the law abiding citizens of that once great city Chicago.
Wouldn't it be wonderful for them if it was back to the good old days of the mafia.

No grifting of US citizens.
No gaslighting of US citizens.
No fascist policies and XO’s imposed on US citizens.
No sucking up to dictators.
Acknowledgment and belief in factual scientific principles.
No insulting of (too many to list, but here goes a few…) Disabilities, minorities, Mexicans, Canadians, blacks, nonfascist Republicans, democrats, scientists, anybody who comments or acts ‘against’ him, women, children, men…
Support and decision making for all US citizens, not just the kowtowing, the fellow grifters, the rich oligarchs.
Real support for the gaslit poor, poorly educated, aggrieved and insular US communities.
Investment in projects that bring prosperity and hope to the majority not just the elite.
Put education (balanced and critical thinking led) and Health 1st - for the longterm (ie when Trump is long dead) prosperity of the US.
