One site of unknown provenance that I stumbled into said that UH has better/stronger insulation than NM (UH is rated to be buried without conduit) and therefore NEC approved for indoor wiring. The article kept saying things along the lines of “If you really want to pay extra for UH and use it inside, go for it, but you’re wasting money.”
It’s also more of a pain to strip. Extra time if you’re doing production.

And according to a couple DIY-type forums I’ve been on, the sheathing is (understandably) harder to cut/strip. I’m seeing other recent, confused posts about why it’s cheaper.

Sorry for the OT, CPRM. Some fodder for your tin foil chapeau construction, however.
The new Italian Prime Minister who everyone is losing their minds over in synchronicity? Maybe that’s not a coincidence.
Maybe it has something to do with what Malone just published on his substack.
It’s an English translation of an Italian article by a professor of philosophy at Trieste University, Dr. Renato Cristin. Here’s a spicy snippet:
And therefore, in full coherence, the forthcoming Italian Prime Minister Meloni announces now the establishment of a parliamentary commission of inquiry on what she calls “the disastrous management of the pandemic”, a commission in front of which “everyone will be called to assume their responsibilities”, and that fixed as “one of the first things we will do at the beginning of the next legislature”. With these premises, it will finally be possible to clarify omissions and reticence, superficiality and dogmatism, provisions and obligations connected with that mass vaccination that is increasingly revealed as a techno-bureaucratic ideology that has produced ascertained damage and which, unfortunately, will continue to occur. The need and urgency of a parliamentary inquiry of this type are given by the consistency of the context (the extent of the pandemic crisis), by the importance of the object (institutional, political, health and epidemiological management) and by the severity of the consequences (the tragic and impressive series of deaths, as well as the often equally tragic sequence of side effects, clinical and economic). It is therefore a question of ascertaining responsibility, at all levels and in all sectors.
And to answer disturbing questions:
Were many of the deaths that plagued these two and a half years of pandemic avoidable?
Why did the political and health authorities substantially inhibit the use, especially at home, of drugs that, evidence in hand as early as April 2020, cured the disease, saving lives and also avoiding hospitalizations?
Why was the vaccine injected in the absence of genuine informed consent? Why has the state never assumed legal and legal responsibility for the mass inoculation that it was more or less imposing on citizens?
Why have the data on the efficacy (or ineffectiveness) of vaccines not yet been made public?
Or maybe that data hasn’t even been scientifically collected?
Why have vaccinating doctors systematically, stubbornly and a priori denied (with superficiality, arrogance and violence befitting bureaucrats and not doctors) the exemption from vaccination to people with health problems who advised against it?
Why did the political-health institutions literally demonize those who, for clinical or other reasons, did not want to take this pseudovaccines?
Why did those same institutions go so far as to impose – Italy as the unique case among Western countries – indiscriminate vaccination by law, and not only by type of work activity?
And then, how much are the economic damage caused by the closures that have been imposed on entrepreneurs?
What interests lie behind the exclusion of any early (and therefore home) therapy that did not provide for the useless “watchful wait” and the inevitable consequent hospitalization?
And so why, if the main problem seemed to be the clogging of hospitals, did the state not favor any therapeutic attempt at home, rather than relying on the sequence that led to resuscitation and intubation?
And again: how much will it cost the health system to treat the negative side effects caused by vaccines?
From now on it can be predicted that, in the medium term, they will be far greater than the costs of hospitalizations that public health bureaucrats (epidemiologists, politicians and administrators) said they feared to the point of administering a pseudo-vaccine as an attempt to limit those costs.
These questions are no longer circumventable, and the answers cannot be postponed: the truth cannot wait. If the governments of broad understandings (but with a narrow conception of freedom) have not even posed the problem, a government inspired by the principles of liberal conservatism must instead – as announced by Giorgia Meloni – definitively address the question, and lay the foundations so that those illiberal and lethal decisions are never repeated.

I wish her luck. Italy is just slightly ahead of America in being run by an entrenched administrative state. Unless she has the power to fire people at will she will drown in a tar pit, as all other politicians who wish to investigate the corruption.
No MSM here are reporting anything about it – just that she’s a fascist – but it’s been a central message of her campaign.
I’m fascinated by what it could mean if she has the wasta to do it. More from this professor’s letter –
Giorgia Meloni had the courage to highlight this crucial aspect, with a few but decisive lines (January 7, 2022), denouncing the dictatorship of the vaccination obligation (and then there is still someone who accuses Meloni of fascism):
“or you sign the informed consent by taking responsibility for a vaccination that is in fact imposed on you, or they take away the bread from the teeth of you and your children. This is not an obligation: it is State extortion. Where have the libertarians of this Nation gone? Where have the champions of the Constitution gone? Is it possible that they are all silent, bent with fear? Because here the issue is no longer the vaccine: the issue is what kind of society we are going towards. I do not intend to live under a para-Chinese model and I want to fight because we do not intend to mediate with anyone on rights and principles”.
Do not mediate with anyone, neither with politicians nor with epidemiologists; on freedom (and on truth) there are no mediations or shortcuts, because the question of freedom is as essential as that of identity, and both must precede any action. This is the ethical and political knot that must be dissolved as soon as possible, so that it does not again become a noose on which to hang personal and civil liberties, and with which to blackmail the people.

As the kid’s say – “it’s a banger”. By Charles CW Cooke of course.
The bureau is a violent, expansionist, self-aggrandizing, and careless outfit that sits awkwardly within the American constitutional order.
In the New York Times this week, Bret Stephens complained that, in unholy conjunction with the Department of Justice, the FBI had disgraced itself yet again with its public smear of Representative Matt Gaetz. “I don’t like Gaetz’s politics or persona any more than you do,” Stephens told a characteristically bewildered Gail Collins. “But what we seem to have here is a high-profile politician being convicted in the court of public opinion of some of the most heinous behavior imaginable—trafficking a minor for sex—until the Justice Department realizes two years late that its case has fallen apart.”
Which . . . well, yeah. That’s what the FBI is for. Last week, a whistleblower named Kyle Seraphin told the Washington Times that the FBI had adopted “an entirely ridiculous internal process for determining every single national priority.” One must ask: “ridiculous” from whose perspective? Relative to the FBI’s stated mission, its behavior does indeed look “ridiculous.” Relative to its historical conduct, its behavior seems pretty standard. What the FBI did to Matt Gaetz is precisely what it did to Donald Trump. And what it did to Donald Trump is what it’s been doing since it was founded: namely, spying on, or attempting to discredit, anyone who irritates the powers that be.
This, you may recall, is the same agency that tried to persuade Martin Luther King Jr. to kill himself. It’s the same agency that compiled a list of 12,000 Americans, and, upon the outbreak of the Korean War, urged President Truman to jail them without trial. It’s the same agency whose response to the KKK’s murder of civil-rights worker Viola Liuzzo — a murder that may have been abetted by an undercover FBI agent — was to spread rumors that Liuzzo was a heroin-addicted communist and a deadbeat mom. It’s the same agency that kept a file on John Denver — the author of such subversive works as “Take Me Home, Country Roads” — because he was opposed to the Vietnam War. When, in 1974, Deputy Attorney General Laurence Silberman was tasked with reviewing J. Edgar Hoover’s secret papers, he was horrified by what he found. Hoover, Silberman wrote, had allowed his FBI to “be used by presidents for nakedly political purposes” and engaged in “subtle blackmail to ensure his and the bureau’s power.” Matt Gaetz is merely the latest in a long line of victims.
Many Americans were shocked when they learned the details of last week’s extraordinarily disproportionate raid against a pro-life activist in Pennsylvania. They shouldn’t have been. The FBI thrives on disproportionality — which, when things go wrong, it habitually supplements with innuendo. As Stephens correctly noted, “We tend to err the most when we assume the worst about the people we like the least.” One doesn’t have to admire Randy Weaver to see that the murders at Ruby Ridge could have been avoided if the FBI hadn’t elected to entrap him in the first place. One doesn’t have to admire David Koresh to grasp that the bloodshed at Waco could have been avoided if the FBI had picked him up in town, instead of going in all guns blazing in an attempt to impress Washington, D.C.
Does the FBI care? Has it ever? No. Since 1935 — and, indeed, even before that, back when it was just the Bureau of Investigation — it has been a violent, expansionist, self-aggrandizing, and careless outfit, which sits awkwardly within the American constitutional order and seems almost proud of that regrettable fact. Apologists for the agency like to insist that it has “changed” since its “bad old days.” But change requires contrition, and none of any significance has been forthcoming. It has been decades since the United States learned who J. Edgar Hoover really was, and his name still proudly adorns the FBI’s headquarters. It is what it is.
A while back, I jotted down a list of potential reforms of the FBI on a piece of paper on my writing desk. In no particular order, they were:
Mandating that if no underlying crime is discovered by the FBI in the course of an investigation, no “process” crimes can result from that investigation, unless those process crimes are a lie to a grand jury or a lie that prevents the exoneration of an innocent person;
mandating that, because it is expected to investigate crimes rather than people, the FBI explain in detail at the outset of any investigation the specific cause it has to begin its work;
mandating that the FBI, as an agency of the federal government, explain in detail at the outset of any investigation why it, rather than a state or local police force, is getting involved in the case;
mandating that the FBI is forbidden from publicly announcing that it is conducting an investigation until charges are brought;
mandating that if an investigation is announced in error, or leaked, the FBI publicly announce the closure of the case — if and when that closure comes — and that FBI staff refrain from implying in public that the subject of their closed investigation is guilty.
Since then, I’ve changed my mind. I still favor all of these reforms, which, if implemented, would undoubtedly improve upon the status quo. But, having reflected a little more on the broader question, I now think that the FBI ought to be destroyed from the ground up. End it. Disassemble it. Dissolve it. Repeal its charter, evacuate its building, spoliate its budget and supplies.
It is possible, in theory, to construct an earnest brief in favor of an FBI-style police outfit that deals with matters of exclusive federal concern. But, in practice, that case doesn’t amount to a defense of this FBI. Bit by bit, year by year, case by case, the FBI has turned itself into a sort of unmoored Super Police Force, which, despite being nominally accountable to the executive branch, is “independent” from political control. In essence, the FBI’s pernicious tendency toward empire-building is of a piece with that exhibited by the rest of the modern federal government — which, on paper, is tasked with executing a limited and discrete set of national functions, but which has come instead to act as if it represented a better, more moral, more legitimate version of its equivalents in the states. Can that be fixed? Has it ever been before?
The result of this trend has been disastrous. In the heart of its capital city, the United States now has a bureau that intervenes with impunity in our ideological and partisan disputes; that has developed a massive, statutorily unwarranted intelligence-collection wing; and that has never managed to escape the paranoia and corruption of its execrable, tyrannical founder. Americans who are tired of it all ought to insist that it be dismantled wholesale, and that any replacement be approved only after a long, meaningful, sanctimony-free debate about the role of the government — and its enforcers — in our lives.
It could, in theory, actually be a neutral aid to local law enforcement that doesn’t conduct its own bank robberies, entice people to commit crimes, or engage in political persecution.
It’s all infuriating. The base pay, the outside gigs, the honorarium, the royalties. Shit that wouldn’t fly in a private company.
I have little doubt that once he’s gone, the stories will start creeping out about mismanagement under his tenure, or he’s a predator or thin skinned control freak or whatever. And everyone knew about it but were too scared to come forward.
““The subject class included instruction on the rise of Adolph Hitler and Nazism, and a lesson on totalitarian governments in general, including how such movements gain power,” states the suit, filed Sept. 21 in Superior Court of Bergen County.”
So what’s the problem?
“The suit states district administrators began seeing Welsh in an unfavorable light in 2021 when he tried to establish a Christian club for students and again that fall when he expressed his displeasure with state-enacted curriculum requirements, including sex education and LGBTQ issues.”

We’re about to lose our bull, who is very sweet even with the small kids. He got barbed wire wrapped deep into his leg that we didn’t realize until it was too late. Vet said the wire severed the tendons and he’ll collapse if the wire is removed. Advised letting him live until he can’t walk anymore and then putting him down.
Since he’s otherwise healthy, we’re going to try to find someone willing to field butcher and fill the freezer. He’s older and a bull so will probably use to feed the dogs given how much the cost of dog food has skyrocketed and we have 5 large ones. Just trying to salvage something out of this mess. Would much rather have him out happy out in the fields than the meat (young steers are for that).

i did not take the skins. I have never done that, and i don’t want to traumatize my wife.

Yeah, I get that. I won’t keep his hide because of that. I’ve heard that there are some people who will come and field butcher just for the hide. Not able to find any though.
Then again my daughter asked if she could put the skull in her room (which she won’t get). She’s a tough one and wants to see how the muscles and everything work.

We fortunately have a second bull already. The hurt one’s son, who we waited too long to turn to a steer and then ended up keeping.
He’s a good bull too and will let the kids touch him. But he’s not quite as friendly. More like he tolerates being handled while the hurt one seeks out people to be petted. Very rare traits in a bull.

2 days in a row of seeing 7am and no links. If I cannot get banned, there should be links. This is a crisis, forget about this global warming that makes big swirly things in the gulf of Murica.
This cut on my finger is insignificant as far as cuts go, and so long as I don’t touch it, it’s fine. Problem is it’s on the side of the pad of my index finger, so a lot of actions on autopilot result in poking it or putting pressure on it. 🙁 Since these are everyday tasks I have to waste brainpower remembering to use a different finger.
I’m glad that’s high on my list of problems, means there’s less big stuff.
I know I have some that I’ve used for similar roles in the past, but it’s gone walkabout, and since it’s back to school season the stores around here are out of glues.

Good morning everyone. Even though it is National Coffee Day, WebDom took me to a cider mill in our quaint town where we procured many gallons to serve at the café (hot cider with caramel and cinnamon). I’ve discovered that hot cider, with the addition of Bourbon or rye whiskey, is absolutely delicious. Also, we’re getting a stove today! No more cooking with just a toaster oven and microwave.
I had flashbacks to when I got into political arguments on DerpBook.
I refused to engage on that platform for that reason.
I left that platform for that reason. IOW the people’s lack of reason, honesty, etc*.
*Told the story before here but in the midst of a debate with a former HS associate he had the audacity to say (after literally only “debating” in leftist platitudes and talking points while committing every logical fallacy in the book to the extent I told him I was going to start naming them as they appeared…) “If you are not going to come closer to me then why are we having this conversation?” Response: It’s a debate, motherfucker. We disagree. And you are a moron that can’t defend his stated positions. Have a nice day.
After that I quit fb. Account is still technically active, but I haven’t been on it in years.
I never joined, my granddaughters wanted to add me to their list of friends. I am not their friend, I really didn’t are about the size of the QBs ‘shoes’
I watched this two days ago.
*haughty sniff*
Same. *Adjusts glasses*
WTF, you guys have some special viewing privileges? Who is charge here? I want to register a complaint.
Thanks CPRM, but some dudes are looking over your shoulder
CPRM didn’t give you the secret password?
Awkward…

I can neither confirm nor deny that allegation.

Killer,
Thanks!
Inflation is a killer.
You can say that again.
Cost of assisted living for the parental unit has gone up. Again.
Bless Brandons heart.
If you don’t mind me asking, where are they at? Eve was in memory care with full services at The Cottages, and it was $5700 a month as of July.
@#$% my Mom is in skilled nursing/hospice for $11k/month!
Going in any major grocery chain around here is like the apocalypse has already happened. I mean at prime time, like on a Saturday afternoon. It’s not like empty shelves. There is plenty of stuff on the shelves, but there are no people to buy any of it. It’s freaking weird, like my wife and I seem like we are the only people in the store. Where is everyone? They have to be eating something. My wife asked me where is everyone and I said ‘I don’t know at the discount places?’. So she says ‘Where are the discount places?’. And I say ‘I don’t know, it used to be here’. What even in the hell is up with this? It’s been this way for more than a month now.
Moving out here was effectively a raise due to the lower cost of living, but we are feeling the pinch now, cutting back on some services, etc. Less dining out.
It’s ridiculous. The price of refilling our AC with Freon was simply shocking.
Anybody who was barely making ends meet before must really be struggling now.
I hope people are able to observe that this is the result of Biden policies and the relentless green agenda.
Refilling? Your system is crap if it leaks, and it does.
⬅. Episode.
The hair is boring. Time to bring back Space Hat. And like where is Bandon’s hat?
Lost trying to get out of a hat box?
I’m shopping for 6/2 wire. Menards has a 75′ roll of NM-B (indoor) for $217 (after rebate). Lowe’s has UF-B (outdoor) for $2.18/ft, so 75′ is $163. Am I being punked? Why would outdoor rated wire be so much cheaper? Just because it’s off a bulk spool? Am I missing something here?
“I’m shopping for 6/2 wire.”
No one else besides you even knows what that is, or have even been to a Menards. Nerd!
Go drink another Zima, Nancy.
No alcohol in 119 days as of today. Thanks for the offer, a beer sounds better though.
Atta boy!
Reminds me of that film, Waterworld, when on dry land he says “It’s too strange here. It doesn’t move right.”
But beer isn’t made with zecret ingredientz.
BS…everyone knows “You save big money, you save big money, when you shop Menard’s!”
I don’t think so. Probably difference between bulk and relatively small run, and higher demand for romex. /speculation
I found that as well, outdoor wire is cheaper, send counter intuitive, but I think it is lacking insulation, must not meet code?
One site of unknown provenance that I stumbled into said that UH has better/stronger insulation than NM (UH is rated to be buried without conduit) and therefore NEC approved for indoor wiring. The article kept saying things along the lines of “If you really want to pay extra for UH and use it inside, go for it, but you’re wasting money.”
It’s also more of a pain to strip. Extra time if you’re doing production.
And according to a couple DIY-type forums I’ve been on, the sheathing is (understandably) harder to cut/strip. I’m seeing other recent, confused posts about why it’s cheaper. Like Gustave speculates, they are also guessing less demand. One other downside of UH is it is apparently harder to pull through conduit. Not an issue for me.
No, it meets code. NEC 340.10 allows it be used as NM cable.
well that is good, because I definitely used it on one of my projects… I didn’t realize until I cut it open how annoying it was to strip, etc.
The saddest dang story I ever heard in my life.
Ass Wednesday.

Not bad.
I don’t know why I did it. I went to TOS. No. I’m really done now.
Thank you, CPRM for your fine work here!
I was just there. They’re getting all geared up and starting to crank out articles about the new bad orange man, even worse than Hitler, so they have an excuse to vote for democrats again.
I just wanted to see what kind of articles the commies have pinned to the rotting corpse of TOS recently. Not a single redeemable article on the home page. Might as well go read Jacobin.
What a shame. Reason was a part of my philosophical/political enlightenment while I was in college. Back then it seemed . . . reasonable. Oh well.
Me too. I discovered it when I lived in California. I had a friend who had a subscription. I read it whenever I visited his house. Such a loss.
I think it was 2007 first time I posted there.
I had a subscription for maybe 10 years but I weaned myself off quickly when the Glibs started.
I had one too for a while, and I still have one of their beanies. My wife found it somewhere a while back, I had forgot I even had that thing.
I have a nice collection of T-shirts and books from them. The magazine kept coming for a couple years after I stopped giving them money. 🤷🏻♂️
I was internet only, entered college in 2009. So never subscribed to the magazine. But commented there under a different handle for the most part, probably with many of you. Fun conversations at the time.
Huh, I haven’t read them all but at least half of them seem ‘redeemable’ – the one about the guy that got arrested for mocking cops, the jones act one, the student loan piece, the Biden lying about guns by Tucille, Halloween fentanyl. Maybe the devil is in the details but I wouldn’t say there’s nothing of value there.
I don’t go to the site much but I still subscribe to the mag. That tends to be mostly redeemable (occasional “huh?” pieces).
Yes, just looked and there’s some good stuff there.
I’m not diving into Hit ‘n’ Run or whatever they’re calling it now.
I agree, they are still OK on some things, especially the mag. But they do seem to be in the FMB (Florida Man Bad) camp. Of course, DeSantis is far from perfect.
“Of course, DeSantis is far from perfect.”
But that is a weird thing to be preoccupied with. Maybe wait until he actually runs for president.
Of course, he is on the opposite side of their three favorite issues, weed, ass sex(well, trannies), and mexicans. As if there aren’t bigger issues in America right now…
I rarely read the website, but their videos are mostly on point, good stuff on student loan debt, etc.
Which one of you is this?
That one is the real Tulpa. So, all of us.

Sorry for the OT, CPRM. Some fodder for your tin foil chapeau construction, however.
The new Italian Prime Minister who everyone is losing their minds over in synchronicity? Maybe that’s not a coincidence.
Maybe it has something to do with what Malone just published on his substack.
It’s an English translation of an Italian article by a professor of philosophy at Trieste University, Dr. Renato Cristin. Here’s a spicy snippet:
So she questions the medical tyranny complex. Obviously she must be destroyed.
Probably my favorite Youtube video since the CNN election coverage on the day after Hillary lost the election, is when Rand Paul had Fauci shitting his britches over conflict of interest on vaccines. I think I have replayed that video now even more times than the Hillary election loss coverage. There is absolute no doubt about how scared Fauci was, there is no faking that.
I wish her luck. Italy is just slightly ahead of America in being run by an entrenched administrative state. Unless she has the power to fire people at will she will drown in a tar pit, as all other politicians who wish to investigate the corruption.
No MSM here are reporting anything about it – just that she’s a fascist – but it’s been a central message of her campaign.
I’m fascinated by what it could mean if she has the wasta to do it. More from this professor’s letter –
5 years in asbestos litigation…I knew “epidemiology” was corrupted since the early 1990s.
Dow Corning waves hello.
I was sort of anticipating finding out more about her when I found out that she has bought fully into the US media’s Ukraine narrative. Just what they need, a female version of Lindsey Graham.
Yeah, on my issue, she’s great. That she’s shit on Ukraine isn’t great, but if I’m ordering my priorities, her getting a commission to investigate what happened with Covid and vaccine mandates will help some of my present and future cases, and to my mind, anyway, is the bigger “civil liberty” issue than the money laundering in Ukraine (though the potential for that to turn into something larger has now become a very real thing with NS1 and NS2, IMO).
“money laundering in Ukraine (though the potential for that to turn into something larger”
Yeah, like when Brandon blunders his way into nuclear war.
Russia’s doctrine on the matter has been pretty clear. That said, never underestimate the ability of Bumbling Brandon to fuck things up.
Yeah, on my issue, she’s great. That she’s shit on Ukraine isn’t great
Take the good with the bad and order the importance of the issues accordingly. That’s how I approach(ed) Trump, after all.
Hey, whatever else can be said about Trump, imagine what the Supreme court would have looked like under Her Hillariness, First of Her Name, Vanquisher of the Deplorables, Ruler of the Clinton Foundation-Federation. And imagine how far down the road we’d already be without 4 years of the Uniparty having to fight der Trumpenfuhrer.
People here can find a million reasons to piss on him (many of them justifiable) because he’s no libertarian by any stretch – he was a Clinton “blue-dog” NY democrat for most of his life. But whenever I think of how bad he is, I also remind myself (a) who he beat, and (b) and what SCOTUS and the federal judiciary would have looked like instead.
Having denied Hillary the Presidency is a virtue all by itself.
Garland would be on the bench and would have found the secret language in the Constitution that allows Hillary to jail Americans indefinitely? Granted, it seems we found that even without Garland…
True. I think with Shillary we would have seen no shit federal mandates enforced for vaccinations.
I’m starting to warm up to her.

A new fallacy, the No Doubt Fallacy
“People say there have been hurricanes for millennia. well that is true but sometimes we get ones that are so much more damaging and so much more intense.”
We have. And there are more people and structures near the coasts than ever before (therefor subject to damage…). And the last few hurricane seasons have been below average in number and strength. Storms are a fact of life that we have to deal with.
But really I’d have to write an entire dissertation to address everything they present in just a few sentences.
…and every property is worth 5-10x more than during a lot of the historic storms.
It is almost like if there are 10x more people and properties valued at 10x their previous worth that damages might rise.
OBE, how’s your toothache?
Okay for now, still gotta schedule the work. Its a wisdom tooth so gonna get them all yanked.

Also, How old is Seveneves? That was an interesting story… though not as ‘feminist’ as the dogmatics might like, since it is actually interesting with complex characters, and some of the women are even bad.

Oddly enough, Charles Cooke has a free newsletter.
I’m wondering how a “federal bureau of investigation” can be anything other than what the FBI actually is.
It could, in theory, actually be a neutral aid to local law enforcement that doesn’t conduct its own bank robberies, entice people to commit crimes, or engage in political persecution.
Gee, I wonder why

The most infuriating part, to me, is his outside gig as an editor while working for the government.
It’s all infuriating. The base pay, the outside gigs, the honorarium, the royalties. Shit that wouldn’t fly in a private company.
I have little doubt that once he’s gone, the stories will start creeping out about mismanagement under his tenure, or he’s a predator or thin skinned control freak or whatever. And everyone knew about it but were too scared to come forward.

““The subject class included instruction on the rise of Adolph Hitler and Nazism, and a lesson on totalitarian governments in general, including how such movements gain power,” states the suit, filed Sept. 21 in Superior Court of Bergen County.”
So what’s the problem?
“The suit states district administrators began seeing Welsh in an unfavorable light in 2021 when he tried to establish a Christian club for students and again that fall when he expressed his displeasure with state-enacted curriculum requirements, including sex education and LGBTQ issues.”

Good morning, ‘bodru! How’s the sheepies?
Ugh, i was dreading this….
Last week i lost two. one was I thought “old age”, but the other was a 8 month lamb.
Sunday i had another that was suspicious, took her to the vet at 9 AM Sunday.
ended up the flock had coccidosis and worms.
Cocci is very bad for birds, did not know about sheep.
Flock seems better now. Just a hard lesson, and we still need rain.
Oh, I’m so sorry! 😟
Are the worms gone too?
Most of them.
Flock tends to fight me on it.
Also i need some rain to move some of the electric fencing so they can have fresh pasture.
Cocci is what was killing them.
Sorry, Robo. That sucks.
We’re about to lose our bull, who is very sweet even with the small kids. He got barbed wire wrapped deep into his leg that we didn’t realize until it was too late. Vet said the wire severed the tendons and he’ll collapse if the wire is removed. Advised letting him live until he can’t walk anymore and then putting him down.
Since he’s otherwise healthy, we’re going to try to find someone willing to field butcher and fill the freezer. He’s older and a bull so will probably use to feed the dogs given how much the cost of dog food has skyrocketed and we have 5 large ones. Just trying to salvage something out of this mess. Would much rather have him out happy out in the fields than the meat (young steers are for that).
Sorry to SSD & RD. That sucks.
Thank you.
Its tough for sure. I am sorry about your bull. I understand the pain.
i did not take the skins. I have never done that, and i don’t want to traumatize my wife.
Yeah, I get that. I won’t keep his hide because of that. I’ve heard that there are some people who will come and field butcher just for the hide. Not able to find any though.

We fortunately have a second bull already. The hurt one’s son, who we waited too long to turn to a steer and then ended up keeping.
He’s a good bull too and will let the kids touch him. But he’s not quite as friendly. More like he tolerates being handled while the hurt one seeks out people to be petted. Very rare traits in a bull.
