You legally can't put a tax on exports. That goes against free trade. Yes an export tax is the opposite of an import tariff.they essentially mirror wax bother and create the same economic conditions however. 

This is why it echoes trumps policy. I'm saying the end result. Is that you piss off your trading partners. If export taxes made trade better for everyone. Then every country on earth wouldn't be spending decades hashing out free trade agreements.

Qatar or the US would be happy but we don't care about Qatar because they don't buy our gas. Everyone who buys our gas would have the shits. Because we've just unilaterally made it .kre expensive for everyone to our own benefit. Exactly as Trump has done. Only he decided to pass the bill as directly to the consumer as possible with a tarrif over an export tax.

It's amazing.

And I understand why the marketing is difficult because it's hard to really cut this into a trailer without giving away too much of what makes it so good.

Just go and see it people! Or steal. Pirate it and watch it at home if you don't want to support "big movie" or tom cruise or whatever.

The core message of this movie is amazing and people need to watch it.

Yeah that's the point. As a test just run the bit for yourself. It's actually way creepier if you say slutty.

Whores is practically old timey, it's my senile grandpa. Sluts sounds rapey by comparison.

Comedians, the good comedians aren't just winging it man. They spend a long time work shopping the same lines till they find the funny way of saying it. Then they practice it a thousand times and pretend they've never said it before.

I love norm. His most famous bits are just recycled street jokes. His SNL run is before my time but watching highlights he was just calling people fags and whores. 🤣

Yeah he had some truly great content but almost no one knows about it. They know weekend update norm and that was just the same gag on repeat.

Well a lot of people travel to things mate. What do you want me to tell you?

Why sing the national anthem I've heard it before? Fuck it why say good night I said it last night. Why wipe my ass I'm only going to shit again. Why eat food I'm only going to shit again. Why speak to a fuckwit I'll only have to repeat myself.

Maybe you're on to something. You know people say, that Einstein said, "The definition of insanity is explaining things to a useless cunt."

He was a wise man.

30s is the cross roads I'd say 30s to early 40s has the widest span in looks. Everyone can be hot in their 20s your young, you get plenty of exercise your diet doesn't matter as much.

In our 30s we start separating the wheat from the chaff. You've gotta work to be hot in your 30s. Life can hit you like a sack of bricks.

Then in our late 50s we all start converging back to just being old.

Proper_Geologist9026

What?

Edit: Oh I'm just now realising my first comment got deleted or hidden or something by the mods.

That was the mods not me.

I was just trying to be positive about the situation. Not assuming the worst like everyone else was.

In hindsight, it looks like unfortunately a little girl has been killed and it's going to be a dark cloud on what's otherwise been an amazing grand finals run.

Proper_Geologist9026

For sure some cunt was ripping skids.

It's fucking newy mate. We know how to give the boys a send off.

Hope everyone is okay 🙏.

Edit: fuck you all. If no one was hurt and the video just showed a sick skid with red and blue tire smoke you'd all froth it.

The vibes will not be diminished.

Edit 2: you all need to stop catastrophising before you even have details. It's a bad joke my bad. But how about you all wait for information before you write the day off as a disaster.

Maybe first responders just over reacted because it's their job to expect the worse.

Proper_Geologist9026

Yes.

Recession is unavoidable.

The choice isn't recession or not recession. It's about whether or not we apply the brakes before we crash.

Proper_Geologist9026

🫪🫪

Proper_Geologist9026

Nah in those cases you just edit and own the mistake.

Edit: I'm a dumb cunt.

Proper_Geologist9026

Cool dude 😎

Proper_Geologist9026

I'm a piece of shit, I know that. That's why I know the video sucks. Insufferable cunts can spot on another in the wild.

As long as you measure progress in GDP yes the indigenous peoples were primitive.

But be careful how you count the worth of people. The noble savage is a common myth for a reason. It absolves us of our guilt at subjugating and slaughtering people. By othering them as less advanced or civilised.

Ironically it's something that even now still happens among progressive people. They treat indigenous groups as this mythical people who's knowledge and learning comes from a "spiritual connection" to land. And not the empirical foundation of knowledge through loved experience.

Indigenous people didn't just learn how to live sustainably. They fucking burned massive rainforests to the ground, created cast grasslands and had to learn to adapt after they wiped out mega fauna.

Proper_Geologist9026

Shhh.

We do t talk about the seemingly perpetual algal bloom. It's kind of a bummer.

Proper_Geologist9026

After 3 minutes anyone clapping for something is being a cunt. You can't change my mind. Even that is a long ass time to clap.

Proper_Geologist9026

That's a shame mate.

I'm really interested to see where this all ends up in 10 years time.

I can't see a world where in 10 years AI isn't just seen as a part of the music process akin to so many previous technologies.

Now I know it's somewhat different in nature and the whole stream of purely generated content likely spells the death of a music industry entirely.

But frankly I just think it's over now.

"Organic" Music will move into the realm of avant garde. And the mainstream pop will become increasingly generative. Using perfect celebrity avatars that never age etc.

Hey bud. Go piss in someone else's cornflakes.

No one cares about how cool and apathetic you are. If you're so sure we're three weeks away from the end go do something fun with your last days on earth. 

You might even make the news!!

Proper_Geologist9026

So it's just going to be wide shots and then standing front on to camera 😂😂.

I get the issue but like honestly guys they can wear slightly longer pants.

Or we just all to back to naked Olympics as the Greeks intended?

Proper_Geologist9026

Okay I need a welfare check the bunkers wife and kids. Someone is under duress here.

Proper_Geologist9026

Don't read this if you don't like spoilers.

I think it slipped after I think it's 5 where we get the prequel. It's the bit where he really starts merging the world's and that comes to it's very odd conclusion in the last book.

But man up until the end of the prequel it's such a good series maybe even the one after that where I think there like in a camp or something, have to storm some camp. It's been a while since I read it.

Proper_Geologist9026

Brother you think any women are clicking the "big vagine" option 😂🤣.

Proper_Geologist9026

Do Americans just not understand that basically everyone doesn't like them? And it's not new. Trump didn't cause this.

America is the predominant cultural, economic & military power in the world and has been for almost a century. Of course we all hate you.

Does anyone think the British were loved when they were empire? Or the French? The Spanish?

But I guess no one on the inside looking out really understands what empire looks like.

Proper_Geologist9026

Oh it's easy we just very respectfully tell you uhh... "Fuck off we're full".

That'll fix it. Oh and nationalise your assets or some other dumb shit.
