Happy Sunday! Another fine day in Returned America. The Sun is shining, the squirrels are chirping, and the coyote is wandering the greenway again, watching the geese and ducks in the pond. This pinup is by Lightning-Lace, most likely AI created, with a wee bit of help.

Anyone else have a link or hotty-fest going on? Let me know so I can add you to the list. And do you have a favorite blog you can recommend be added to the feedreader?
Two great sites for getting news links are Liberty Daily and Whatafinger.
Once you rid America of Mexicans, Venezuelans, Muslims etc, how do you plan to handle the black problem? Half of all murders in the US are committed by young black men with guns!
A Modest Proposal: When they turn 13, institutionalize all black boys in the equivalent of military schools (which straightened out Mr trump!). This would involve a traditonal Western, Christian education, including the equivalent of university, and the subsequent choice of military service, professional school, trade school, approved public service or prison. When approved, they transition to American freedom between 25-30 years old.
This would cut our high homicide rate in half!!
The distinguished Mr Dowd wrote:
At least our very tolerant DEI guy recognizes the problem, but living in St Louis County, how could he not?
I am surprised, however, that he didn’t simply suggest converting their American citizenship to Liberian, and shipping them back, given his attempt at sarcasm, but his suggestion has some merit:
Yes, that is exactly it! We didn’t have the problem of black gang violence in our cities in decades past, when that was how we educated our children. Instead of the wokestresses commiserating with the poor, poor, oppressed great, great grandchildren of slaves, teach them the truth, that they are fortunate that their ancestors were brought to America, because they now live in the land of opportunity, and success can be theirs if they just work hard, don’t use drugs, and don’t do stupid s(tuff). Teach them that the greatest things that they can do for themselves and their children is to get and stay married, go to church on Sundays, and live a good and decent Christian life.
Though our socialist from St Louie is an agnostic/atheist, even he couldn’t deny that my previous is the single best prescription for a solid and responsible life, and would build peaceful and cooperative communities.
Curiously, our homicide rate was cut in half from 1990 to 2015 by NOT making changes. In fact our christianity decreased
The proud Catholic Mr Dana sees forced Christianity as the answer to most of America’s ills although our 1st Amendment forbids it. And getting married is great! Mr trump likes it so much he has done it at least 3 times!
We need to realize that the best of times is now. Not 1850, not 1900, not 1950, but now. Now and tomorrow is what we have. The scheiße brought to us by Mr trump is temporary but does threaten our future. The problems faced today by Americans result largely from the artificial income/wealth/social inequality constructed over the past 50 years or so.
America is not responsible for the rest of the world. Our Catholic anti-socialist surely remembers the HS debate topic of 1969-1970 — Resolved: That Congress should prohibit unilateral United States military intervention in foreign countries.
I do. We argued that the U.S. could NOT be the world’s policemen! Good times.
Following WWII the U.S. white majority experienced a phenomenal increase in economic freedom and equality. Our black brothers and sisters had had enough of oppression and started making noises that resulted in laws securing some equalities. We saw unprecedented government (taxpayer) funded physical and social infrastructures!! This was mostly financed by high taxes on the wealthy. Our mothers and fathers even paid down the WWII debt!! They were, without a doubt, our greatest generation – surviving the Great Depression, winning WWII, building the working class and America, securing international “stability” by forming NATO, the UN, IMF, World Bank and later the NPT.
Today, MAGA wants to dismantle this, desiring gunboat diplomacy, Might Makes Right, and To the Winner Go the Spoils!!
As people feel more and more that the U.S. society becomes less and less fair, civilization tends to fall apart. If Might Makes Right, why wouldn’t a teenager with a gun take what he wants?
Two rather interesting and contradictory statements from our good friend from St Louis:
Two rather interesting and contradictory statements from our good friend from St Louis:
So, which is it, the best of times, or more and more people feeling left behind?
We did have changes in our society which Mr Dowd said led to a “phenomenal increase in economic freedom and equality” as the workplace was far more open to women. Women began to compete for the jobs previously restricted to white men. But there was the unintended consequence: as the supply of workers increased far more greatly than the increase in demand for workers, wages fell. Where we once had a society in which a man could earn enough to support a family, including buying a home, now it takes a man and a woman, both working outside the home, to support a family. Not only did wages drop, but the necessities of the two-worker family increased dramatically: the family needed a second car, so the wife could work as well, and families started needing to pay for child care.
There were plenty of other costs as well.
Then there was the great increase in social freedom, which has led to a huge increase in the number of children born without fathers in the home, and the children in single-parent households are far more likely to live in poverty.
So, what do we have? A society in which 70% of babies born to black women are bastards, something which greatly increases their chances of poverty, and men have far less reason to get married, because now they can get pussy without it. How, exactly, does this mean that “the best of times is now”?
I should have said, except for shit-for-brains trump, the best of times is now!
Yes, times were good for white men back when women, blacks and non-Christians were forced to ride in the back of the bus. But can times really be good when 50% of the population is oppressed?
Shit-for-brains is destroying the world order, the US social safety net, the confidence in the future and our society. It’s becoming a “get all you can, when you can” culture. Dog Eat Dog!!
She is not dressed for operating heavy machinery. Gloves, steel toed boots, long pants, eye protection and an apron for a minimum.
Ixnay on the ovesglay! We do not use gloves around rotating power tools, because gloves can get caught in the equipment, and bad things happen.
Then how do you keep your nails from getting chipped?
Oddly enough, when I’m using my table saw, radial arm saw, drill press, miter saw, or other equipment, chipping my nails is not something about which I worry. Using these pieces of equipment, one is cautious not to get one’s fingers in the way more than just their nails. Even my wife was not worried about chipping her nails when using my table saw.
I certainly use gloves with the angle grinder and table top grinder. With the drill press, I use mechanical clamps and keep my hands away from the spinning things. We won’t even get into long sleeves.

Energy Secretary Chris Wright* says the goal of the U.S. potential intervention in Iran is to restore Iran’s democracy!!
LOL. Iran was last a democracy in 1953! At that time the United States and Britain, working in the interests of the oil companies (esp BP), engineered a coup deposing the democratically elected Mohammad Mossadegh and intalling Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the Shah, to power. Prime Minister Mossadegh’s great crime was nationalizing the oil industry to Iran’s economic advantage!! He claimed that Iranian oil belonged to Iran, not BP! Mossadegh was arrested and died 15 years later while still under house arrest.

*Mr Wright was/is CEO of Liberty Energy, one of the U.S.’s largest fracking companies.
The circle of life, er, oil! LOL
How strange to have a former CEO of a fracking company as Energy Secretary…
Agreed. And he should stick to discussing fracking instead of history.
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) manages national energy policy, promotes scientific innovation, and oversees U.S. nuclear security, including weapons and infrastructure, while also leading efforts in energy efficiency, renewables, and environmental cleanup of nuclear sites, ensuring America’s security and prosperity through science and technology.
Would you be happy with a Secretary of Energy being the CEO of NextEra Solar?
Nice drill press!
Ahem…
