I'm involved in the manufacturing sector. At recent trade shows, we've been hearing that a lot of companies were holding off on making decisions about purchasing goods and machinery until after the election, though no one was saying much specifically about what each candidate would mean for their decisions. This article seems to say the outlook isn't super rosy and his initiatives don't make a ton of sense.

Considering the stories that came out about how they used the White House pharmacy as a drug dealer, no, it would not surprise me in the least.

Thanks electing Trump, Uncommitteds. Enjoy watching Gaza burn and Ukraine turn into Russia.

I'm scared for the economic future. My job is with a company that needs supplies from China to make our products. Our buyers also source most of their raw materials overseas. Trump's tariffs will destroy us. We won't be able to source materials and neither will our buyers. I may lose my job.

Beyond that, I have family members only a couple of years from retirement. This is going to tank their accounts. I need a new car. How will I be able to afford one? Everything is going to go up in cost.

Love my bumbles. They're sweet little derps. The native milkweed in my garden came through strong this year and I made sure to spread the seeds nearby so next year is even better for them.

A disorder is something that interferes with your enjoyment of life. While I'm proudly autistic and don't have any issues saying that, I also recognize how it makes my life more difficult.

My sensory issues, stims, and social problems do interfere with my life and did even more when I was a child. I've been discriminated against for being autistic by a boss who tried to say that not making eye contact meant I was bad at my job. I've had to seek accommodations at work, which I wouldn't be able to do if it wasn't a disability

I appreciate your optimism but your perception is wrong. It very much is a disability and those of us living with it know that.

Is he the idiot who demands you only pay for things in cash and store it in labeled envelopes?

Is there anything in the rules about where the online cancellation has to be housed? I can totally see shady businesses hiding it in a part of the site that's not even on their sitemap and noindexed just to keep people from finding it.

It doesn't even go far enough to reach his ears most of the time. Just an orange smear ending after his cheeks.

Sometimes when I have to answer a call from an unknown number, I'll pick up but won't say anything. A human will say something when they hear it stop ringing, but most bots listen for voice activity before they start their recording so they'll just stay silent as long as you do.
