Got the parts to fix my air conditioner in my car, and a used phone, and a retro handheld I had been putting off.
All used, of course. I’m not contributing back to this corrupt hell government.

Nothing, I’m not buying anything special from that country they can fuck off.
Slowly but surely we will move all our ongoing needs away from the USA and back within the EU fully, so that they can burn in their own little corner of the dark ages as they desire, while we continue to live in present day.
I’m American and I’ll say both. They(we) let it happen, and our cowardice and inaction right this second just continues it. We had millions of protesters over the weekend. Did anyone listen? Nope. Until we take it back by force, nothing will change and the majority isn’t willing, so, we’re just gonna take it. Every second of inaction is willingness on our part. It can always get worse and does, yet we do nothing.
We deserve it. Maybe it will finally wake us the fuck up, if it doesn’t destroy us first.

What’s supposed to happen from protests? Let’s say that you have a representative who was just elected or reelected and they’re fully aligned with the current administration’s policies. They don’t need votes or your support. Of what use will protests have?
The people that are going to suffer the most are the ones that don’t deserve it. It will be the gay kids in the south who are sent to conversion therapy and are physically abused to “fix” them. It will be the black buisness owner who is forced to hire more white people so it isn’t “dei”. It will be a sweet grandma that starves to death because she can’t afford food anymore.
Sadly, I have no way to import a KMR L–02 Orca OR, since the ATF makes it such a pain in the ass to import onsey-twosey, and the tariffs mean that if they ever get a US distributor, it’s going to be out of my price range.
But I did get a CZ Shadow 2 Compact a week ago, and that’s going to be my carry and competition gun for however long these tariffs last.
I’m going to have to get a few pounds of powder, primers, and a few thousand bullets (the projectile part), because all of that is going in increase in costs, too. I was quoted a price of $315 or so for 8# of Vihtavouri N-135 powder; I’ll probably try to get 16-24#, 15,000 small rifle primers, and at least 8-12# of Ramshot Silhouette powder. About half of the raw materials to make bullets–lead, copper, brass, nitrocellulose, etc.–end up being imported, because we simply can’t keep up or don’t have the mines.
None, because I don’t live in a country with an orange moron at the helm.
