Where do y'all live where gaming isn't expensive already? I stopped around 2015 cause it was too expensive then.

WWE 2K'14 and Star Wars: Battlefront 2
made me quit. Most expensive games I've ever invested in.


Y'all craxk me up.

Trump will apply a minimum 10% tariff on all exporters to the US, according to the Wall Street Journal. The president, displaying a chart, indicated Wednesday that dozens of countries with the largest trade imbalances will face even higher rates. China will face a 34% rate, while the European Union will have a 20% levy and Vietnam is seeing a 46% tariff.

This is what the country wanted so it's it what it is. He said he was doing this upfront and it discouraged almost no one.

Crazy thing is there is overlap with Gen Z manosphere Trumpers and streaming/gaming. Now I doubt many of them voted but they helped boost Trump's profile in those spaces and discouraging people from voting for Harris

Really hope Americans vote with their wallets, even when Trump is gone, if companies see peopel paying the tariff prices with no issues what incentice will they have to lower them when the tariffs are gone?
