It’s been one year since the illegal Trump tariffs were put in place. Almost everything you buy is more expensive now. There are less manufacturing jobs in the US now than there were a year ago. There are less factories in the US now. You didn’t get a Tariff rebate check. Other countries have started making trade deals between each other and avoiding US goods.

Feeling liberated yet?

    Apparently, many US people have been liberated from the shackles of their jobs.

      Dat’s me! Been liberated for the past year and I’ve never felt more hopeless!

      Seriously though, been keeping myself busy with archiving documents my deceased parents had, and renovating my house. Playing video games and watching movies and anime helps with escapism.

          I just checked out the gameplay trailer. I can’t say if I’m much of a management/sim kind of gamer, though I did enjoy what I’ve played of Stardew Valley and Core Keeper.

          I’m more of a mapformer (Metroidvania), platformer, arcade beat-em-up, monster tamer, collectathon, visual novel, RPG, puzzle kind of gamer
