"Protect your daughters" is the same mentality that puts the burden on kids to have carry bullet-resistant backpacks and shooter drills, then to do a damn thing about gun control.

In that case we should stop calling the whole computer business "IT" (Information Technology) and go back to the term used 50 years ago: "IS" (Information Systems).

Reminds me of a story from decades ago, when someone clever got "NO TAG" as their status plate, thinking that would prevent them from receiving any parking tickets. Instead, NYC sent them 100s of parking tickets for every car without a tag.

The entire evangelical movement is nothing but a con, of which the Bakkers were a small part. Plenty of next-gen con people out there today, still doing the same old thing. Some victims never learn.

📌This naked statue of Trump, The Orange Plague, in the European Parliament in Strasbourg is exactly how you handle this deviant, who uses his office to celebrate himself, and crush others. He needs to know that THIS is how he will be remembered when he finally takes his last gasp.

Hundreds of years ago, tools were even more shockingly pricey and handed down, generation to generation. Someone stealing your inherited tools could ruin you financially.

The US was the first country in over a thousand years to establish a democracy. The Founding Fathers had few examples to go by when writing the Constitution. Just because it's first doesn't make it best. Henry Ford thought the Model T was the perfect car, but we don't drive Model Ts anymore.

The Reign of Terror is not the best example. It stripped everyone of their rights, allowed only one punishment (death) and quickly became a political tool. In less than a year, people turned against Robespierre who led the Reign. He was arrested and guillotined, ending that period of the revolution.

Trump's game plan. 1. Promise $5k to everyone if "Republicans win." 2. Some deparate people will vote Republican. 3. If Democrats win, no money. 4. If Republicans win, still no money. It's a lie.

Wish I could find it, but back in the day there was a magazine cartoon titled, "John Wayne Bobbitt sings the Beatles." JWB is seated at a piano belting out, "Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be...."

Our government is also there to provide rules and regulations governing markets, food safety, building standards, banking standards, etc. There is no such thing as a free market, just rules that either level the playing field, or in our case today, allow the powerful to run rampant.

My observation: people like that typically have no empathy for others outside a narrow circle, or an internalized sense of right and wrong. They end up relying on external guidance provided by sociopaths like Trump who are more than happy to manipulate them.

Amazing how, when you sum together our DOGE checks, the tariffs savings checks, and now the "nearly" $100 buck check, it all adds up to the same number.

And surviving scurvy, malaria, and dysentery. The scurvy problem was solved by Captain Cook in the late 18th century by requiring his sailors to eat sauerkraut. (Surprise! Not limes.) Sauerkraut is easy to make. It's just 2 ingredients: chopped cabbage and salt (2% by weight), pounded together.

A lot of sailors back in the day didn't learn to swim for that reason. A sailing ship caught in a storm or in a battle can't turn back for you, therefore better to drown quickly than to swim until exhausted, then drown.

Personally, I'm suspicious of the auto-shutdown feature too, but out of wear and tear concerns. Save a little, pay more in repairs later. It's also the last gasp, you might say, of the internal combustion engine, just as clipper ships were peak sailing tech, right before they became obsolete.

The US, naturally, doesn't follow common world standards. A green-handle pump in the US means diesel fuel, except at BP stations, which does follow Canadian/UK/EU pump handle color standards.

And it's not even $100, but "nearly" $100 bucks. What does that mean? $90? $80? If you round to the nearest $50 interval, then $51 is "nearly" $100 too.

The standard Part-B premium is $202.90/month that's easy to forget because it's automatically withheld from SS payments. Unofficial projections put it at $209.50/month for 2027. Less than a hundred bucks might pay for two weeks of premium, or less than a single grocery store trip.

Mind you, the excise tax isn't the only reason diesel costs more per gallon today. Diesel was also cheaper because it didn't have as many refining steps as gasoline, but that made diesel a dirtier fuel. Today's diesel includes sulfur removal steps, raising the refinement cost.

Also of note: behind kitty in that picture, that's a 20 amp GFCI duplex receptacle adjacent to the sink. Not a code violation as such, but it's better to not install outlets that close to a sink.

DemosCat 🌊🇺🇸🇺🇦🇨🇦🇲🇽🇵🇦🇬🇱 @demoscat.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

I'm old enough to remember when diesel was cheaper than gas, back when gas and diesel were taxed the same. Then in 1983, Ronald Reagan more than doubled the excise tax on diesel. Even today, diesel is still taxed higher than both gas and jet fuel. Thank your Republican overlords, MAGA.
