Yay, got a bill from UPS for duties on something I ordered from Australia. Wasn't expecting it, and I'll just add the 50% tariff on top of the immense list of things I absolutely despise about the asshole in charge of the US. Fortunately, the gentleman who shipped me the board put down the value at around $20 which _might_ be slightly different than what I paid...

The #Trump_Tariff_Inflation is affecting more than one industry - and for no benefit to anyone.
If the #GOP actually wanted to support small business, they'd be letting their constituents know how the #tariffs

"Trump plans to impose a Russia penalty on India in addition to a 25% tariff"
If however India were to publicly say Trump brought about the ceasefire with Pakistan and nominate him for a Nobel Peace Prize...
So nakedly #transparent. 🙂‍↔️

#DJTs volatile #tariff tantrums are inflicting greater damage than expected, but those caustic cash crisis effects are largely concentrated in the U.S. economy according to analysis by global experts studying matter with Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development.

My old #LFC mug was fading badly from the dishwasher. So, I bought a new one a couple of days ago from the official store. $20.80 including shipping.
I guess I don't order internationally often enough to have been hit by the #tariffs before. I got an email from UPS tonight, shaking me down for 2.5x…

An order summary showing the mug price of $10.80 and a Shipping and Handling charge of $10.00, for a Grand Total of $20.80.

$CAD1100 is a lot to spend on just a couple items, but I guess in the grand scheme of making a pond/pool that will completely transform our backyard, it's not crazy. This about equals the amount spent ($1200 iirc) to rent the digger last Labour Day weekend. The liner and underlay fabric was another $3000. So we're looking at about $5500 so far for the project as a whole. Still better (including for the ecosystem!) than your average $50,000 in-ground pool install. ;=D
I realized last night that I bought the wrong pumps (DCT vs DCP argh). One of those “oh that's cheaper than I thought it would be” moments... followed by... “oh crap.”
I'll send the previous pumps back immediately upon arrival.
It's ok though, these will be two 20,000L/h variable pumps. The entire pond/pool system should be no more than 23,000L. My biggest rookie mistake with the #pandemicpond in the front yard was too small a pump. I rectified that when I added the bog filters there.
So I'm overbuilding this time. I should be able to run them at low-speed/power for the same amount of flow. Which will be better for pump longevity and power over time.
Also got main piping for the system: 50ft of 2" flexible PVC (Schedule 40). This will move water from the intake bay (behind the tree) to the bog filter (in front of the tree) and connect to smaller diameter piping/valves/fittings for sprayers in the pool.
This should be the end of the big-ticket items. The rest will be a LOT of little stuff: electrical, piping, and a lot of rock. Probably another $1000-$1500 to go, all should be local, and some of it can be put off until next year if needed.
It took a few tries on the Bezos Site, but I managed to find a supplier within Canada to avoid tariffs on any of it because Tariff-flation is definitely a thing! (American .com store essentially doubled the cost!)
So ya, you can hashtag this #tariffs #TariffLife #TheAmericanFascist and #TrumpTariffs
