Russell Brand criminally charged with rape...
Exactly the work of a narcissist that was raised thinking the world owes them, and their primary targets are others of the opposite sex. Love bombing in many forms gets them fooled, and they're soon to be the next victim. -

Trade Turmoil Deepens as U.S. and China Lock Horns Over Tariffs
Title: Trade Turmoil Deepens as U.S. and China Lock Horns Over Tariffs Tensions between the United States and China are intensifying, with both sides showing no signs of backing down in a spiraling trade war that has left American exporters reeling. The latest move by Beijing to impose a 34% tariff on all U.S. goods entering China has come as a crushing blow, especially for American companies counting on access to the world’s second-largest market. For U.S. agricultural producers, the impact is particularly severe. Already burdened with existing tariffs of 10 to 15% following earlier trade disputes during the Trump administration, the new tariff hike is pushing many of them out of the Chinese market entirely. "Now, if you add 34% on top of that, it is probably pricing most of them out," one industry observer noted. China, meanwhile, seems unphased by the prospect of sourcing products like chicken, pork, and sorghum from elsewhere. At the same time, it's no secret that the latest wave of tariffs is aimed squarely at the U.S. president’s political base in America’s heartland. Analysts worldwide are growing increasingly anxious as the economic standoff escalates. Global supply chains have become so interconnected that parts for a single product might come from multiple continents. That complexity makes the current trade tensions more dangerous, with economic ripples threatening to spread far beyond the U.S. and China. "The world's two greatest economies are now at each other's throats with no indication that either is preparing to back down," one analyst remarked. In a symbolic display of defiance and environmental focus, President Xi Jinping and the six other members of China’s powerful Politburo Standing Committee appeared in public planting trees. It was a calculated image of calm, subtly suggesting that China is unfazed by Washington’s actions. “Do your best Washington, this is China and we're not interested in your nonsense,” the gesture seemed to imply. While there remains a possibility of a deal between the two nations, the rhetoric on both sides offers little hope. An alternative path for China could involve strengthening trade ties with other countries, even traditional U.S. allies, effectively bypassing the American market. Such a shift would further damage U.S. companies and consumers, who are already dealing with price increases as a result of the tariff policies. Markets have reacted swiftly and brutally. All three major U.S. stock indexes plunged by more than 5%, with the S&P 500 suffering a near 6% drop, marking the worst trading week since 2020. Across the Atlantic, the UK's FTSE 100 fell almost 5%, its largest decline in five years. Markets in Asia, Germany, and France followed suit with steep losses of their own. President Trump, undeterred by the global market reaction, continues to promote his trade agenda. “Hang tough,” he wrote to supporters on social media. “We can’t lose.” Citing the strength of the U.S. labor market, he dismissed concerns about the dramatic market declines. The broader economic toll, however, is undeniable. Since Trump announced sweeping new 10% import tariffs on goods from every country, global markets have lost trillions in value. These tariffs have affected products from dozens of nations, including major trading partners such as China, the European Union, and Vietnam. China’s countermeasures, including the new 34% tariff, export curbs on key minerals, and blacklisting of U.S. firms, came with a sharp rebuke. Describing Trump’s actions as “bullying” and a violation of international trade rules, Beijing made it clear it would not be intimidated. Amid the chaos, other countries are trying to assess their options. Some are holding out hope that they can negotiate favorable terms, though the unpredictable signals coming from the White House have left many uncertain about the future of global trade.

Katy Perry Promises to Bring Glam to Space in All-Female Blue Origin Mission
Katy's net worth around US$400 million. But I doubt Bezos is charging them anything. But these days whenever I hear about stuff like this I think of that deep-sea tragedy a few years ago. I saw them on teevee putting in the bolts to seal the doors and thought "ummmm....." -

Americans in Pattaya and impact from Tariffs?
Actually it is calculated based on some formula around trade surplus which Thailand has with the USA. Not directly related to import duties applied by Thailand. I am pretty sure the duty does not apply to buying cash dollars.....
