I remember as a kid one of my cats sitting like that while a small (about cat sized) pair of dogs yapped a her when our male cat came tearing around the house at a dead run and uppercut one of them. It somersaulted 720 degrees and was running its legs before it came down again and he chased the pair of them away down to their house.

When I get here in the evening, often I've had very little opportunity to mix it up during the day. So sometimes I want to mix it up.
However, I think your point is worth remembering, there IS truth, there IS beauty, right and good in this world. And we can contribute to it, or we can take a dump in the middle of the floor.
Given my personal life situation, I've been aggressively trying to add to the truth and beauty of this world lately. Which generally means having nothing to do with politics. Although yeah, no. I'm not really interested in animal videos either.

I remember sitting on a Sunday afternoon long time ago as a young girl on the farm, and was accidentally introduced to classical music. I put on the new album of classical masters that came with the new stereo, (my sister had just purchased) and stumbled upon Rachmaninoff. .I was mesmerized at the pure masterpiece of the piece, and was hooked on classical ever since! The 3rd piano concerto is still my favorite, but the 2nd Symphony is beautiful as well.
Also, I'd like to give a shout out to Jane D'oh. I'm glad you had good luck with your surgery, and that the cancer is gone! I had nasal surgery as well last summer (basal call CA-invasive) and a fabulous ENT microscopic surgeon did an amazing job of reconstructing the cartilage on my nose using a piece of cartilage from my ear, so I relate to the long process of having surgery and the recovery process. The feeling of the graft on my nose is odd, but it is so nice to have the cancer gone. I will go back every once in a while for rechecks to make sure this stubborn stuff doesn't come back!

No, scuff both pieces to be joined, coat with Barge, wait until both sides dry and carefully stick together. Once stuck bang on it with a hammer or something. Will not come apart easily. If the smell bothers you put it outside as long as it's not really cold out. Used it to stick rubber soles on shoes so it holds really well.

A friend of mine just got out of prison not too long ago and I asked her about the broad on broad sex in the joint nowadays.
She said it did not matter as gay is gay and she wasn't down with that....even in prison. No Gay, No Way she said.

Nor the population of Texas or the wide open border of Texas and the Biden policy of sending illegal Cubans back to Cuba.
There are a lot of illegals in FL. Many more now that Biden has been sending plane loads of them there.

But 30 races are yet to be determined, including 19 of the most competitive based on a Reuters compilation of the leading nonpartisan forecasters.

I got a lot of support here and at work for it.
This time last year I was in the field playing "ace reporter" when my brother called crying....he is not prone to do that.
My sister was in the ICU being diagnosed with Stage 4 Lung, Liver, and Brain cancer.
My instinct was to finish the exercise I was working on, instead the officer I work for and my project manager ordered me home to visit her. I am glad they did, she lasted the 90 or so days I estimated when I saw her. I hate cancer, and I sincerely keep any and all whose loved ones or they themselves suffer it in my prayers.

On the national level we could identify the Senator or Rep who earn their head on a pike in 2024. The GOP congressman that worked against conservative positions, made weasely moves, and engaged in failure theater the most would come under consideration. Acting like a squish in a solid red district would count more that being liberal in a blue district. Example: Romney over Collins. It may keep these people more attuned to the interests of their constituencies.
As McConnell has done more damage than having a dem in his seat by being in leadership I nominate him to have his Head on a Pike.

Square this circle, the GOP apparently did better with all demographic groups except one, nation wide got over 5 million more votes than Democrats but it's a nail biter if we manage to take control of one or both houses.
Oh and there are still over 600k votes to count in AZ, 400 thousand in Nevada and a number of Cali races where the GOP has a lead won't be finished counting till the end of the month.

Tariffs, uneven application of the 10th amendment. Both sides believed in big Federal Government just for different objectives neither particularly benign.
The South wanted Big Fed to stomp on state's rights to wrangle slaves "home" thus the Underground Railroad.
The North wanted Big Fed to swing the subsidy hammer for Northern industrial money and to micromanage territorial law.
I am a civil war buff, not at all a neo-confederate and as I age am more and more disgusted by the political assholes on all sides of the road to war on the matter.

They sold their cotton to Britain and bought finished goods in exchange. The northern states had been trying to industrialize and wanted to "tip the scales" to make English goods more costly and make their own products more "competitive."
Then there was the U.S. Dept of Education that wanted to teach the boys to be girls and the girls to be boys.

Tariffs
Posted by: screaming in digital
----------------
That was actually more a factor when Congress passed a new tariff bill called the Tariff of Abominations in 1828 under Prezzie Andy Jackson. That is what led SC to pass a law of nullification and Andy to threaten to invade the state. The tariffs were scaled back subsequently but AJ always regretted not hanging VP John Calhoun as a traitor.

Agreed. I remember the first time I went into depth about the "whiskey rebellion."
George Washington wanted his taxes. The men who fought for him thought "you know, we already got rid of one King George."
So they sent an army to slaughter a bunch of Veterans who thought they fought a war to be free. So... yeah.

Tariffs were the chief funding source for the federal government and Andy paid off the federal debt during his term. Southern planters hated them as they imported a lot of goods or had to pay higher Northern prices for them. The planter society was fundamentally undeveloped as an economy because of slavery. Able craftsmen who were white or freed slaves left the South. Slave craftsmen were often like Frederick Douglass and more prone to resent working for a master to collect their wages.
The only people that largely benefitted from slavery in the South were the planter class and the mercantile interests catering to them. The rest of society did not.

Lincoln wanted the war, note Bob from the NSA I am not saying he caused it. The reality is he really *was* the prototype for SUPER PROG 2000 in a lot of ways, anyone who thinks internal part acrimony started with Orange Toupee Weasel needs to look at the intra-party electioneering that led to Abe getting the nod. The American Revolution has been constantly and consistently betrayed in 75 year cycles give or take since inception.
1776+75 1851 (the beginning of the road to 1861 IMHO was the dust settling on the Mexican-American War US Grant agrees)
1865+75= 1940 World War Two was the finishing of the concentration of power cycle begun by the kids of the Civil War Veterans.
2015 is the Obama bullshit roughly.

I think it'll exist, but it won't cover the whole territory. The USA has maybe, at best, another 10-15 more years of being able to solve all its major problems by flinging paper money around--probably less thanks to Branch Covidianism. And looking at it from a larger historical perspective of fallen empires, I don't see any scenarios in which the country doesn't break up along regional lines. Some of them (SE, Plains) are likely to stick with something reasonably close to the original guys' vision.

I had to do research about the period for an unrelated legal project but that required reading constitutional conventions, secession conventions, a lot of the legal era from the 1830's to the 1860's at the state level and so on. It is depressing reading but the young Democrats were the ones that became radical in the South, the older ones , especially the former Whig party politicians in the South, still hoped to preserve the Union. In the North, the Dred Scott decision pretty much made the North adamant against allowing slavery to spread and that directly put a time limit on the south. Cotton depleted the soils in about a generation and so the Southerners eyed the SW territories for its spread.
