Any reliable reporting coming out on all these boats and crews that are being blown up?
(The ‘Drug War’ has been blatantly evil for decades. We know there’s a good chance the official narrative is bullshit, and there certainly is no nuance.)
Are they fishing, smuggling, or both?
This is great info! I use the plain jane P100 instead of dust masks all the time.
General respirator info for all my peeps:
3M 6000 half face and 7000 full face series reapirators are where it’s at. They’re worth the money even if you only ever use it for home repair.
I use one of them with the P100 disks all the time for dust, mold, grinding, drilling into possible asbestos, etc. Also effective against droplet born disease such as coronavirus. The organic vapor cartridge above also does particulate as a P100 (the organic vapor portion has a limited lifespan once opened, IIRC, but the filtration is indefinite). P100 particulate filtering lasts a long time, however, before they clog. Years with normal homeowner use.
Read up on sizing. Most average cis male sized heads will be a large. Average cis female sized head is medium.
If using a half face in an infectious or chemical environment, swim googles will protect your eyes.
The racism doesn’t explain it for me.
It’s certainly a contributing factor, and I think it’s closer to whatever venality trump has tapped into in these people.
However, just the way the man presents himself should have been an immediate turnoff for most of these people.
He’s a fop, a dandy, he’s got a swish in his mannerisms that borders queer stereotypes for many southerners. He’s city soft. Which these people hate just as much as they hate black folks.
Personal experience, I don’t understand deacons, colonels, PhDs, and skilled blue collar worshipping the freak. It’s not about policy, it’s that they’re just as bigoted against how he presents himself as they are about race.
I get how the mechanics of it work. That’s not hard to see and understand.
The part I don’t understand is the cult of personality. The personality is repulsive. He violates all kinds of norms the fundies literally hold as sacred. Trump is openly a cartoon of what fundies rail against, teach their children not to be, and consider evil.
I was born and raised southern fundie. A new york city, orange makeup wearing, reality tv, biblically ignorant, multiply divorced, fucktard conman is about the last thing I could see them falling for. That’s the part I don’t understand. Mike Johnson, Bush, Cheney - I understand. Hell, they didn’t like Romney because he was Mormon.
If you’ve ever seen the movie The Outlaw Josey Wales, there is a yankee carpet bagger selling snake oil. He’s comic relief and is an archetype of slimy dandy Yankee sales weasel. There are cultural tropes against exactly the sort of person Trump is including his appearance.
And yet, they fell for it. I don’t get it.
Sitting on the inside here. I’m perpetually astounded as well. Very little of this suprises me anymore but plenty of things shock me.
He’s a stereotypical conman; so shallow, so obvious. And yet, my family and former friends continue to slurp up his bullshit. It’s so fucking stupid. He’s so stupid. On paper, many of these people are smarter than the orange used car salesman.
It’s difficult to describe how astounded I really am. Black magic or aliens would make more sense. I would find a novel or show with this unrealistic.
I wonder if I’ll ever understand?
Might think about taking a break for a while. I have to, sometimes. Do some camping and mostly unplug. Anything real big goes down and you’ll hear about it.
Marathon, not a sprint. Fuck em, we’re harder. Country boy can survive.
That’s fantastic.
I’ve known a lot folks that talk like Boomhauer, (I’ve been told I do, as well.)
Black Hole Sun and Beavis and Butthead were both on MTV back then. I don’t remember if they watched the video on the show.
Anyhow, that video was up there with NIN’s Closer for general weird awesomness. The crazy smiles and expanding eyes are burned into my memory.
Also, proto Hank Hill on Beavis and Butthead.
I remember my grandfather being very upset about the “Beaver and Butthole” show.
I really like your analysis.
I really fucking hope you’re right.
not all beauty is worth pain
He sounds like a pretty awesome dude. Thanks for sharing. Also sounds like he has you pretty well trained, he gets to ride and sniff.
We don’t have a small dog right now, our elderly Chihuahua reached the end a couple years ago and my wife is still raw.
That’s really funny to me. What was his name and what was he like?
Rock and Roll!
What cheap woods are the most impact resistant for splintering and splitting?
What is the best way to cure wood to prevent splitting without a kiln? Slap a heavy coat of latex paint on a log/burl/root and let it sit 6mo/year?
What are the most machinable hardwoods? (In particular as regards tearout, warping, and tolerance of thin sections)
In your opinion, what is an available underappreciated or interesting wood to work?
Are you actually a wood scientist, and, if so; can I pick your brain?
Nice saw, BTW!
I’ve always heard this. Helped with pit on a friend’s dad’s drag car when I was a kid. It makes sense, but I’ve never looked into how large of an effect it actually is.
Alcove in blue. It didn’t extend into her intestines or anything, it was just a small pocket in the back wall.
It was in the back wall of the vagina, a little bit before her cervix.
I actually dated a girl who had a chambered pussy. She was born with mild spina bifida, and there was a scar on her tailbone.
Anyhow, she loved doggy style. I’d get going good and then pop the head of my dick into the alcove, she’d cum her brains out.
Fun times.
I agree with you. I still can’t make sense of it and I don’t understand how he is seen as having charisma. Even his voice is repulsive.
He’s so fake and slimy in his mannerisms.
Only thing I can figure is that many people just don’t perceive him this way and find him warm and personable.
