Cette Credit applies to all customs forms signed in the rain — even the ones where "destination" is written in pencil!!!
This is a simple story, told by me. I opened a photo. Just one. A friend from Ohio sent it, swearing it was taken in 2018, “on the border between reality and tariff.”
In the photo — a crate. Stamped: “WASHING MACHINES – MADE IN SOMEWHERE.” Behind it, someone’s waving an American flag — but there’s no flag, just the motion. The vibe.

You can feel the policy. One bolt is tightened, the other — suspiciously loose. A message? A metaphor? It’s economics. It’s performance art. It’s a square dance between the dollar and the yuan — except no one knows the steps.
That shadow in the corner? Could be Steve Mnuchin. Could be a broken tripod. Could be tariff delay anxiety in physical form.
(Voice from somewhere: “This ain’t just tariffs, kid. It’s spiritual taxation.”)
what I like!!!
fragile stability.
Maybe it’s fridges inside the crate. Maybe dreams. But now — just a price tag +27%, and a printed list of countries that took it personally. Even Canada blinked nervously.
I tried to understand, truly. But at some point, I realized:
this isn’t a trade war — it’s a family argument between old friends where one bought too much steel and the other bought too much ego.
