Feminists have discovered it, and they’re angry about it.
Go put in another nose ring.

The Final Version 2 Test
Looked like it did everything they wanted it to do. Feel free to discuss.
[Tuesday-morning update]
Bob Zimmerman has the story.
Crazy Busy
Posting has been light because we had to repipe the house at the same time as we were scheduling painting the exterior, and the plumber had to break a lot of stucco to run the Pex. (The copper pipes were installed in the slab when the house was built almost half a century ago, and the hot water started leaking in it, and it was judged better to repipe rather than tear up concrete to repair it when it was likely to just develop another leak).
We got the stucco redone yesterday, and are doing everything else necessary for the painters, who are coming tomorrow for a walk through. And when that’s all done, there’s a lot of drywall to patch, and repainting inside (not to mention having to remove a lot of ceiling popcorn).
Happy Indigenous Peoples Day!
Reading Empire of the Summer Moon really drove this home — the Comanche started out in Canada, and ended up controlling much of the plains and Texas through total conquest. And they do "land acknowledgments" to the Comanche at SXSW! https://t.co/iGJKGNE6lg

[Update a few more minutes later]
It's a great Indigenous People's Day for the Jewish people, who had a kingdom in Israel more than 2,300 years before Columbus, & were ejected from that land by a Western colonial empire.

Confederate Theater
“In regards to the deployment of national guard soldiers, I hear people on the left say that they are anticipating a ‘Kent State’ moment.
Personally, I expect to see a ‘Ft. Sumter’ moment even sooner. As a prelude, I would expect to see a Harpers Ferry type incident occur within a deep blue state. And by Harpers Ferry, I refer to a prelude incident where a Federal facility is attacked inside of a blue state by a local zealot.”
That already happened, in 2020, with the federal building in Portland, but the Democrats told me that it was “mostly peaceful.”
[Late-morning update]
Welcome to reactionary, neo-confederate Portland.
