Or in your case whatever is at Princeess Auto or Canadian Tire. Ensure it has removable replacement batteries.

Yes. DeWalt, Ryobi, whatever Harbour Freight is selling these days. Amazing screwdrivers. Works OK as a drill too. Makes assembling furniture so much easier.

It was hard 25 years ago, I can't even imagine what it's like today.

If you still have those, keep them! Rare as hens teeth.

The Trump administration is increasingly trying to criminalize observing ICE ICE officers often tell people tracking and watching them that they are breaking federal law in doing so, but legal experts say the vast majority of observers are exercising their constitutional rights.

Welcome to New Mexico. It's been near 50 years and I still remember the February and March winds.

Jesse Jackson appeared on Sesame Street in 1973.

During his appearance, he led a group of children in reciting his well-known poem β€œI Am Somebody,” a message focused on self-worth and empowerment

The segment became one of the most memorable celebrity appearances from the early seasons of the show.

If you ask a Mexican person if the food they're eating is spicy, you cannot trust the answer.

You might hear "a little", "it has spice", or the classic: "No, it's not spicy at all."

For years, I thought this was a national inside joke. The truth is much weirder and retrospectively obvious (1/x)

While the administration fast‑tracks voter suppression and handouts for billionaires, families are still skipping breakfast. Show up this Saturday, Feb 21st, 9:30 - 10:30am, with cereal for Peggy’s Pantry and make your values visible. πŸ₯£πŸͺ§

Or perhaps with the corporations for the people. Rocket has done some ripping good stuff in Downtown, I'd like to see them partner with the Detroit government and do even more.

Why the shift from cat pix and gaming to Community? Cause Big Tech rolled over on us. No sense in living my quiet life of desperation, hoping my 'likes' and 'shares' make a difference. This list matters. So, I may as well do something worthy of being on this list.

Brothers describe ICE confrontation near Olathe Walmart that led to detention Two teenagers in Olathe say they were confronted by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents Saturday morning near the Walmart off North Seventh Highway.

Receipts:
"Video shows ICE agents handcuffing and pinning a 19-year-old on the pavement."
"β€œThe ICE agent proceeded to point a gun at my head and say, get the BLEEP out the car,” "
"...an agent made a comment...we own you now".

Would you stand by as your cubs selling popcorn were sworn at, cursed at, maligned and degraded?
Yeah, our scouts have grown up. But the Scout Law, Scout Oath and commitment to our Community are forever.

Today, two kids, could have been any of our scouts, were accosted, verbally and physically abused in a manner that none of the JoCo or WyCo (or even KCMO) police could get away with by federal officers.

If you do not agree with how things are going right now, be vocal about it. Organize. Communicate. Subvert the dominant paradigm.

We are still at the Soap Box and Ballot Box state of democracy. Use your soap box. Express yourself, support our community, defend our kids.

Forgot some of what that means? Re read the Cub Scout manuals.

And use your voice, your presence, your actions to support and defend our community. If you agree with how things are going right now, be vocal about it. Organize. Support the current paradigm.

Many of my friends on here are Scout leaders. We were trained to protect our youth. We trained our youth on Citizenship in the Community, in the Nation and the World. It's our duty to use the powers that we have to protect our youth, support our Community, our Nation and defend our Citizenship.

Stolen from a sh*tposter on the other site, but very insightful.
"Thomas Massie is not suicidal. He eats healthy food. His brakes are fine. He can swim.

"He shouldn't have to tell you that.

The fact that he does tells you everything the redactions won't."

A conductor for the Chicago Metra line makes from $60K to $86K a year. Plus retirement. Fair, but hard to support a family on even in South suburbs. I guess if you were retired military it may make sense. Which I'm not. Nor do I live in Chicago. But, interesting!
