Also, they say it all the time in different ways and contexts. Big name talking heads literally put gun sites over photos on major networks...

There have to be more woodworkers on here, but one thing Bsky lacks is a great search function. Do any of y'all know any cool woodworkers on here to follow?

My dad did it by threatening to come preach to their children in their driveway (parents were very nice to them until they directly approached my brother and I in the driveway)

Over at the Bad Place, I made a tradition of posting Douglass' "What, To The Slave, Is The Fourth of July," and I intend to carry on that tradition here. Since most versions you read in classes or in textbooks have parts omitted, the link below has the full text of the speech.

This. Look, I've been happy being boring from other people's perspectives since I was a kid. I love my earth tones, I enjoy time in my garden and reading. Accepting that some people get joy wearing bright colors and having boisterous exteriors doesn't mean we have to demonize people who don't.

“What action can we take about this thing?” The only LEGAL thing you can do is vote and hope the people you vote in take measures such as passing responsive legislation/expand the court/etc. instead of immediately fellating a corporate lobbyist after getting assigned a congressional office.

Yay blood work! Should know soon if my "borderline" TSH is normal or needs to be supplemented or is Hashimoto's. My doc is just being careful since MS increases the chances of Hashimoto's.

1.5 lbs per capita sheep ingestion in the U.S. So while not chicken, not uncommon either.

Goat is eaten a lot. Like a lot a lot. And historically was eaten even more and in more places.

Most likely it's more simple than that, you can get sodium acetate as a solid which makes it easier to calculate the mix with drinking water, no dilution calculations.

People do not want to understand the "hypocrisy" is the point. The rules in these people's world are to punish the other people and protect the ones in power. Laws being applied wildly unevenly is "working as intended."
