Okay, if this is real, this is worse than I was expecting. I've been thinking about secondary outputs but I've been thinking way more about plastics, inks, other secondaries.
I have been worried about products shortages but maybe not enough. I am and have been assuming that there will be preferential distribution to corporations (which obviously includes most freight) and least preference given to individuals trying to do their own work themselves - e.g., like RAM over the last several months. But I haven't thought about the price side of that.
And holy shit it's gonna get fugly.
So, uh, yeah.
Maybe buy an ebike. Maybe make some plans.

Alien 2: Why don’t we hold back a bit then stroll down there after those red hat wearing guys and that Tangerine dictator do the dirty work and destroy everything for us first. Then we’ll take over Earth.

America needs a qualified driver behind the wheel to move the country in the right direction.
Not some emotionally and intellectually under developed toddler who can’t reach the pedals or turn the steering wheel.

Oil prices ease as US pauses Project Freedom for Iran talks
Global oil prices have eased following the United States' decision to pause the Project Freedom initiative. This move was taken to pursue negotiations with Iran. Markets responded to the project pause with a decline in energy commodity values. Analysts link this trend to expectations of potential shifts in global oil supply dynamics. Investors are closely monitoring the further development of US-Iran dialogue.

Despite blaming Iran for new attacks in the Strait of Hormuz, U.S. military officials say a ceasefire is still in effect. Only two merchant ships have reportedly passed through the strait, and many more are too wary of the risks to try. Read more from @npr@flipboard.com

Republicans are counting on Democrats to play by the rules, follow the laws and take the high road.
It gives Republicans an overwhelming edge because they can fight as dirty as they want while Democrats discuss the legality of even entering the ring.
Democrats will never win while constantly discussing whether to bring a pillow to a gun fight.

China instructs firms to defy US sanctions on Iranian oil
China's Ministry of Commerce has ordered domestic companies to disregard the requirements of a recent US Executive Order. The order imposes sanctions on five Chinese teapot refineries for their connections to Iranian oil. Beijing has officially instructed firms not to comply with the restrictions imposed by Washington. This move signals China's opposition to unilateral US sanctions. The decision could escalate trade tensions between the two nations.

After 34 years, Spirit Airlines has shut down and 17,000 employees are out of work because of Trump’s war in Iran.
Trump, of course, is falsely blaming the Biden Administration for Spirit going out of business.
Ironically, because of Trump’s war in Iran, skyrocketing jet fuel prices have grounded Spirit.
