Holy Shit. "one of ours. all of yours". on a government podium?!?

That's serious fascism stuff. It's the approach taken by the Nazis when Reinhard Heydrich, a prime architect of the holocaust, was assassinated by the resistance.

The assassins were mistakenly believed to be from the town of Lidice in occupied Czechoslovakia. So the Nazi's rounded up all the men and boys and killed them, and sent all the women to concentration camps. wiped the town off the map.

THAT is what's being evoked by that phrase on the puppy killer's podium.

A great little story about learning to #repair and #make things. It's not just about woodworking like the title suggests. Pick something. Learn how to do it. try it. It's very satisfying.

I absolutely LOVE woodworking https://a.wholelottanothing.org/i-absolutely-love-woodworking/

When the pandemic started, I started working on my own cars, at first following guides to install various parts but eventually learning (mostly via YouTube) how to do suspension and drivetrain maintenance on my own. Once I knew how a car's suspension really worked, it unlocked an entire world of understanding for me. I felt like I finally figured out on a fundamental level how mechanical machines operated. Soon after, I could diagnose broken gadgets and fix them.
