Tariffs, Economic War, and the Emerging Post-American Order

Tariffs, Economic War, and the Emerging Post-American Order

My commentary: The tariffs imposed under the Trump administration are not genuinely aimed at revitalizing American industry. Rather, they function as a tool to destabilize China’s economic growth and position the U.S. to provoke a potential military confrontation. These punitive measures are designed to persist unless nations acquiesce to the administration’s demands, effectively coercing them into aligning with its confrontational economic agenda against China.

Transferring Playlists Between Apple Music & Spotify

Tina Marie (Ms. Cat)

TuneMyMusic costs around $20 per year or $2 per month. The free plan only allows for 500 songs, unfortunately. I’m still working through transferring all my playlists, but one feature is its ability to move YouTube playlists directly to Spotify.

Currently listening to my BPD playlist on Spotify.

When words fall short and feelings hide,
Let music speak, your heart’s true guide.
It weaves the thoughts you can’t express,
A melody of tenderness.
— T.A.
