@jack_watson_hfw @ChurchillWw They ALL are terrible to deal with. Exactly why we are investing to be an alternative

Doncasters has a fraught history. I can’t imagine they’re much improved today versus their poor operational performance over many years. They’re banking on the manufacturing exuberance

@jack_watson_hfw @ChurchillWw Other large cos: CPP, Chromalloy, Doncasters

And one day: Wall Colmonoy

Another annoying thing about getting emails people have used AIs to write for them is that they're usually longer than they'd have written by themselves. Paragraphs and paragraphs of plausible-sounding text. Ugh.

- Years after the passing of Senator John McCain (R-AZ), Donald Trump continues to mock the injuries the former POW sustained while being tortured in Vietnam. (2024)

We have a year’s worth of economic data since Liberation Day, when President Trump announced much higher tariffs on most imported goods and countries, and the data are definitive; the tariffs have done significant damage to the economy. Since that day, job growth has come to a standstill, with only the non-traded healthcare industry adding meaningfully to payrolls. Also, since that day, inflation has accelerated, with the consumer expenditure deflator increasing at a 3% year-over-year pace, up from 2.5% before the tariffs and well above the Federal Reserve’s target of 2%. And the trend lines don’t look good, especially as the economic fallout from the Iran War hits with full force. The higher energy and other commodity prices caused by the war threaten to do even more economic damage than the tariffs, further undermining growth and pushing inflation higher. The U.S. economy is resilient, but just how resilient is set to be tested.

Hello everyone! I just wanted to address some things about my stay in Detroit as I've seen some wild theories out there.

Visiting Detroit is extremely costly. It cost me around USD 3k for the flights alone! I paid for most of the food I had (excluding a few times like when the Dearborn mayor showed me around). I eat tons as you've seen so that's again a lot of money. The collaboration instagram posts with restaurants and Detroit accounts like Greektown, Dearborn, Riverwalk, DIA etc were to help promote and highlight various areas in Detroit, mostly requested collab from them and were definitely not paid for at all.

The only paid collaboration I had during my visit was with Sam Bernstein - because they offered to pay for my hotel during my visit. (and a signed Cade jersey, I probably would've done collab posts just for that alone lol)

I have a pretty regular job here in Korea. I constantly save my money just to visit Detroit and spend my savings away there. It's my passion and I love every moment of doing it, although I know it's not the smartest way of managing my finances.

So yeah, I just wanted to get that off my chest. I'm no sleeper agent, industry plant, looking to steal your culture, or someone looking to profit off my fame. I did get some special treatment from teams and I understand if some of you are frustrated at that - I also agree that local fans need as much love. I'm not saying that you should like me, but I just want you to know I'm human too so I do get hurt by hateful comments. I just wanted you to understand I'm just a fan of the city like you and it just happens that I live 7,000 miles away.

I love Detroit, and can't wait to be back!

Oshcut, RMFG, and SendCutSend all getting a load of equipment the same week is quite the white pill. I've used all these services multiple times in the last year, and it's been one of the biggest improvements to product development workflow.
