> Nord Stream 1's official capacity is 55 billion cubic meters a year of LNG

Hmm... Are you saying liquified natural gas is pumped through North Stream?

Oops, that was clearly a mistake. Thanks for catching it.

Natural Gas is pumped through Nord Stream. But it is not sent in liquid form. If it was, then keeping the pipeline sufficiently cold and pressurized would be an insane challenge.

> Some people joke about eating meat instead of tofu, as American tariffs have made imported soybeans more expensive.

When the imports get more expensive because of tariffs it's by definition the tariffs imposed by importing country, i.e. China in this case.

Spin. From the actual survey data at https://www.federalreserve.gov/consumerscommunities/files/SH..., page 6:

Overall, which one of the following best describes how well you are managing financially these days?

    14  (0.1%): Refused
   893  (7.2%): Finding it difficult to get by
 2,395 (19.2%): Just getting by
 4,930 (39.6%): Doing okay
 4,215 (33.9%): Living comfortably

How is it spin? Just means there are a lot of people who believe doing OK encompasses having less than $400 ready cash.

I might call it blind optimism seeing as pg 21 of the same PDF shows the sources they would consider to fund an emergency expense, but not spin.

Are you sure that's right? I don't get how that adds up to 40%.

If 40% of people can't find $400 in a pinch, then it means at least some of those people self-reporting as "Doing OK" still can't find $400 in an emergency.

Let's kill one of the few remaining private industries where we're still the best in the world?!

How about "let's build the next Hollywood" instead?

I interpreted it more as "Let's kill off the Hollywood way of doing things."
