What can I say about the last several weeks?
In a word, it has been infuriating. Yesterday I woke up, again, several hours before the alarm unable to go back to sleep as my mind raced with the thought that the fascist and fabulist Left just may win again over a subservient and unprincipled Right. It would appear that those doubts will be assuaged, pending the votes over the next day or so. Kavanaugh will be confirmed on almost strict party lines. But... But. I must still explain to my politically detached wife why I have rings under my eyes. So I tell her the recent news as it pertains to us: Our son will grow up in a world where no matter how hard he tries, no matter how much he achieves and no matter how well he treats other people, at some point he may have everything taken from him by a woman who claims he gave her a bad touch decades in the past. Our daughter will run the risk of being assaulted in a restroom by someone who "identifies as a woman" but swings an active crank, and instead of being consoled and defended, will instead be called a liar and have her parents referred to child services. Both are growing up in increasingly violent times, as the Left and their mouthpieces dehumanize their enemy. Rest assured, both will be given the benefit of home-schooling, and will be trained in physical and material preparedness. But it is excruciating that I must do so. My kids deserve to grow up in the American dream, unburdened and unthreatened by those who despise me and mine just because I have the audacity to believe that gender is directly proportionate to one's plumbing, or that in a just society, guilt isn't presumed according to political affiliation. I am tired. I am frustrated and angry. I miss the days of reasonable policy debate with my political others. These November elections will be illuminating. The professional Left has staked its claim in paranoia and hysteria. The results this November will tell us just how damaging to a nation that claim can be.Comments

There has to be at least ONE prosecution of this bullshit behavior.
Pick the most egregious violation, a slam dunk case, and prosecute fully.
Then do it again.
And again.
I think behavior will change very quickly after that.

Saturday is here.
She blows gently up the length of my sex--as in member!--with a smile.
"I've been around, sugar." The husky harlot coos like a sexy dove (the bird, not the soap)..
I hold my breathe in anticipation of her next word.
Finally, my medulla oblongata recalls its purpose. I breathe.
"Let's you and me do this, Saturday."
"I thought you'd never ask," she says.
And so it begins.
Happy Saturday!

Leave Blasey alone? Are you kidding? There needs to be a real
investigation. Who scrubbed her media? Who went to far as to eliminate
screen shots of her wild crazy yearbooks? Sounds increasingly like FBI
beach friends and a few dings will not stop this, it will embolden it.
Unpunished behavior is repeated behavior, and this needs to be punished.
True, Sessions is a scared baby, but after the midterms, he must be
replaced, and then a prosecution might be feasible. A let bygones be
bygones approach is no answer for this problem

No. It would have been about Trump's bad judgement in nominating Kavanaugh, with McConnell and Graham putting up a half hearted defense but in the end McCain would have derailed him.Piece of shit that he was.

But it's not the entire floor...just the center. Do I have to replace the whole thing? And does this mean my house is heading down to the lake?

I'd look to go underneath that floor and reinforce it. Shifting in the middle means too long a span, or sumpin's moved.
You can remove and replace tiles. IF you have matching tiles.
If not, the whole floor may be easier than a few.

"It's ironic that it was Trump, a late convert to conservatism -- not authentic Republicans like President Ronald Reagan, both Bush presidents and beaten GOP nominees Mitt Romney and John McCain -- who finally delivered the Supreme Court majority."
Notice they start by talking about a convert to "conservatism", but then talk about being "Republican". It doesn't even cross their mind that, perhaps, the reason for the lack of progress is that the Bushes, McCain and Romney are Republicans, but not conservatives.

So the esteemed Senator from Minnesota believes that illegal immigrants have voting rights and that the courts have anything to do with impeachment (other than Chief Justice presiding over Senate trial for President, but not, inexplicably, for Veep.)

That's because the MSM idea of "direct democracy" involves taking out a gun and shooting your opponent.
It's like how Chucky Schmucky Schumer can take to the Senate floor and accuse Republicans for coarsening the debate and blowing up the collegiality of the Senate.

But it is with a purpose and signaling.

I hold to the idea that value is not limited to the in-clique, that success must be dependent on one's talents and drive instead of circumstances of birth and going to the right schools. The Left denies that. The Left holds that we are not fit to be free.
And it is, indeed, everywhere. In NoVA, even trying to get a job promotion past a certain level requires that pedigree. In other words, know your place, trailer trash, and if you don't we will mercilessly pound you down.

If you have spare tiles around, then you can just do what Skip said, thinset and re-grout. If you don't -- don't despair. Since it's the center of the room, have someone make a design for you with some smaller mosaic tiles perhaps, or with another tile. Turn it into a 'feature' of the room.

Gonna agree with the other Morons who have said that the issue is probably with the surface that the tile is actually setting on. Tile will pop loose or crack from it and the subfloor no longer being in firm touching contact with each other. And that can be one or more joists sagging, or the subfloor moving up or down due to not being properly fastened to the joists. Or the foundation shifting.
I would lean towards a failed adhesive, except for the tiles also breaking. That leads me to think that the tiles in spots are still firmly fastened to the subfloor, but the subfloor is trying to bend under stress or foot pressure. And tile does not bend. It cracks.

It's time to start worrying if you see fire, smell sulfur, and hear demonic voices.
Seriously, this may be a good time to call in a respected professional. It's probably due to changes in moisture in the surrounding soil. That can wreak havoc with houses, even those with a pier and beam foundation. A good engineering firm can recommend a variety of solutions to fix, stop, or delay the problem.

If it was my house I would probably replace the tile, then level the room with tar paper to remove the 'high spot' then put tongue and groove wood or laminate flooring down. I suspect the foundation is not secure enough for ceramic tile.
Ceramic tile also breaks so freaking easily, which is why I use slate in my own home. In the incessant battle of pickle jar vs floor, ceramic tile loses, while slate kills the pickle jar.
Yeah, it's a few bucks more, but it's naturally pretty non-slip and can last a lifetime.

There are all-vinyl floors that go in like pergo (snap-in) that are pretty easy to install and less than $2 sq/ft. I put that down in a basement room two weeks ago.
The nice thing is if you get tired of it or it needs replacing it can all be pulled out with a minimum hassle.

Something else:
Sometimes getting an entire ceramic tile floor back off a cement slab can be one helluva project. That's why I'd lean toward repairing the small area then encapsulating/overlaying with a more flexible, forgiving type floor.
Especially if foundation movement is ongoing cause for concern.

You cannot have reasonable policy debate anymore because of the massive historical ignorance on the Left, and their inability to exercise reason (as opposed to catechism).
In so many discussions that I've attempted, it becomes quickly evident that to even have the discussion, it is necessary to instruct them in things they should have learned back in High School; sometimes even Grade School*. Unless both parties are willing to invest the time and effort in this educational gambit, a "discussion" isn't going to happen.
* - This goes beyond politics and history: it applies as well to the STEM subjects.
