Who paid the tariffs? Consumers who gets the refund? Businesses who pays for the refund? Taxpayers this has all been so much fun. I’m so glad we all get to keep winning like this.

So, we didn’t just pay for the tariffs, we paid for the tariffs twice?

HEAD QUARTERS MORRIS TOWN 12TH MARCH 1777 

Sir                                                                           

You are hereby required immediately to send me an exact return of your regiment, and to send all your recruits, who have had the small pox to join the Army. Those, who have not, are to be sent to Philadelphia, and put under the direction of the commanding officer there, who will have them inoculated.   You are to leave a sufficient  number of proper officers to carry on the recruiting service, who are to bring up their men as soon as they are ready.  No pleas, of delay, on account of the dispersion of the officers can be admitted, as every commanding officer ought to know where his inferior officers are, and they what recruits they have, and where they are to be found.

You are to remain at Philadelphia, to procure arms clothing &c., and send on, your Major to Camp, to  receive your detachments.  Your Lieut. Colonel is also to come on, as soon as circumstances will permit.

I am Sir

Your most humble servant

Go: Washington

George Washington wrote this letter to Lt. Colonel David Grier on March 12, 1777. In it, Washington instructs Grier to send new soldiers to Philadelphia so they could be inoculated for smallpox. Washington wanted to make sure that his troops were not affected by disease, and he believed that inoculation would help with that. So, just before this letter was written, Washington created a mandated system of inoculating his soldiers.

The ultra wealthy pay less than ever under Trump's tax policies. You pay more through hidden mechanisms like tariffs and eliminated health credits. This system extracts from workers to fund billionaire slush funds. #TrumpRiggedYourTaxReturn

Russell’s in Wayland has a good native plant section. Also check out “Garden in the Woods” as they are part of the Native Plant trust and sell a lot of plants. Plus it is a nice hike.

Same, but a beneficial impurity. Had a x-coupling that only worked in certain lots of acetonitrile. After an ICP-MS, we kept finding Zinc which turns out was leaching from the barrels storing the ACN as the manufacturing had used the wrong type of container. Later,
we purposefully added Zn salts.

Had this happen once at very large scale. A CRO in a cold climate stored barrels of DMSO outdoors, needless to say the start of my batch that was slatted to run in said solvent was delayed for a few days.

Earth and Moon from DSCOVR NASA's Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC) aboard the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR) satellite captured this unique view of the Moon as it moved in front of the sunlit side of Earth last month.

You want a car that gets the job done? You want a car that's hassle free? You want a car that literally no one will ever compliment you on? Well look no further.
The 1999 Toyota Corolla.
Let's talk about features.
Bluetooth: nope
Sunroof: nope
Fancy wheels: nope
Rear view camera: nope...but it's got a transparent rear window and you have a fucking neck that can turn.
Let me tell you a story. One day my Corolla started making a strange sound. I didn't give a shit and ignored it. It went away. The End.
You could take the engine out of this car, drop it off the Golden Gate Bridge, fish it out of the water a thousand years later, put it in the trunk of the car, fill the gas tank up with Nutella, turn the key, and this puppy would fucking start right up.
This car will outlive you, it will outlive your children.

This car's got history. It's seen some shit. People have done straight things in this car. People have done gay things in this car. It's not going to judge you like a fucking Volkswagen would.

In the owner's manual, oil is listed as "optional."
When this car was unveiled at the 1998 Detroit Auto Show, it caused all 2,000 attendees to spontaneously yawn. The resulting abrupt change in air pressure inside the building caused a partial collapse of the roof. Four people died. The event is chronicled in the documentary "Bored to Death: The Story of the 1999 Toyota Corolla
