So I make breastmilk and memorial jewelry and there's a big company in China that manufactures the jewelry. There's actually even a really big well known brand that's I've seen that uses their jewelry and lots of smaller businesses do too. I've looked and looked and LOOKED to find something else but there's nothing like them.
My husband is a Trump guy even though he says he doesn't like him. We've had discussions about the tariffs and he's saying that it's corrective to bring jobs back to the US.
Well I was just talking to the owner that manufactures the jewelry and he told me that they might have to shut down because they basically sell at wholesale and barely make a profit and DHL and UPS are charging more for the headache of the tariffs. He's not sure if they will have to pay or the buyers will have to. I'm hoping a praying that it's us as the buyer.
So I told my husband this and he was like, "well, it's just the market correcting itself." I was like, "you're not even a little mad that my business might be affected?!" Idk what he said but he was laughing and I blew up in his face.
I told him that he doesn't care enough about anyone but himself. He doesn't care about women's rights, lgbtq+ rights, immigrants, not my business, nothing.
Now I locked myself in my bathroom and I'm crying. He keeps trying to talk to me but I won't talk to him. Talk me down man.

Memorial jewelry is just jewelry made to commemorate a dead person.

Looks like they somehow turn breastmilk into a stone.

I looked this up after PMM shared this with me. Apparently they put actual breast milk in liquid resin, then they cure the resin and make it hard, then shape it into jewelry. Why anyone would want to do this is beyond me.

My steak doesn't turn black when I cook it, b-word? Maybe you just burn your food.

There isnt blood in it, or muscle tissue in general dumbass, it's red from myoglobin. Which also turns brown when cooked.
I can never tell if you're r-slurred or just consistent with your bit.

Yeah idk how the 4-6 week shipping time lines up with the supposed ship breast milk to China and jewelry back timeline.
Actually is it even legal to ship breast milk internationally?

I doubt China is even using breastmilk, probably just using white paint and calling it breast milk
