When I was on Okinawa in the early 70s, stray ordnance was turning up regularly enough there were posters with pics of the more dangerous stuff. One unfortunate day when the former IJN HQ site had some construction going on a pile driver found a sea mine the hard way, killing the operator and a girl passing by on her way to school. ---

Kinda reminds me of a teacher in high school that would hurt the children any way she could. The district fired her and she sued them, accusing them of firing her because she was female. Luckily for the school, every time she’d say something nasty or otherwise lob insults and the students my brother had been writing it down on his book cover. I think he was just doing it for fun, not that he was attempting to collect evidence, but the school found out about it and used his book cover to defend their decision to fire her. ---

I just came here to talk about Pink Floyd. This is the 50th anniversary of Dark Side of the Moon. You know, the one with the prism reflecting light into a spectrum of colors? So they created a logo with 50 and a rainbow inside the 0. So the right wing crazies are literally, going crazy about Pink Floyd being woke. > **[Pink Floyd Army Dunks on Fake Fans Triggered By 'Woke' Rainbow Logo](https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/pink-floyd-fans-triggered-wok-rainbow-1234664971/)** > > When the legendary band unveiled a logo celebrating the 50th anniversary of their album ‘The Dark Side of the Moon,’ some saw the gay agenda at work ---

> [@Joey\_P](#): > > I think he was just doing it for fun, not that he was attempting to collect evidence, but the school found out about it and used his book cover to defend their decision to fire her. At my work they train us that if there is an employee causing problems, document EVERYTHING. And write down details, not conclusions. Don’t say, “Joe came in drunk.” Say, “Joe arrived to work late, clothes rumpled, smelling of alcohol, staggering and slurring his words, and his eyes were bloodshot. He fell asleep at his desk after sitting there for 5 minutes.” Likewise, don’t say someone is a racist, just document specific things they said. I found it very interesting advice that I luckily have not had to use yet in more than 8 years at my job. ---

I wish they would ban them. No, no; hear me out. Let them ban the sale of new EVs. The rest of the country, heck, the rest of the planet rolls to no more combustion engine vehicles. Those clowns in Wyoming can then walk everywhere. Or they can just sit in their stupid trucks for the photo op because that’s all they’ll be good for. ---
