Sadly, I keep 2 in my image library. Necessarily so.

One of my (probable) ancestors died in the French & Indian wars, what the Brits may call the Seven Years’ war. At least on this continent, it was the precursor to what happened in 1776.

Ignored by the faux-patriotism industry is the very real problem the colonists were making for the Native Americans living around the Appalachian mountains.

Part of the American revolutionary war was about colonists not wanting to be controlled in their land grab. This was part of the problem 20 years prior during the Seven Years’ war.

If I could (and I can’t because I’m not an independent observer) evaluate the American revolution from the outside, the overthrowing of a monarchy for a representative democracy was a big step forward. Yet at the same time, having land-grabbing colonists going hog-wild over the hills was a form of genocide.

Reports: Bardstown bourbon storage facility collapses… Again. https://t.co/eSo7UXs549 pic.twitter.com/QGpML5CZrh

— Enquirer (@Enquirer) July 4, 2018

The bourbon storage facility in Bardstown, Kentucky that partially collapsed on June 22 has now completely fallen, according to media reports.

Reporter Julie Dolan with WLKY in Louisville reported that the collapse of the rest of the facility at the Barton 1792 Distillery in occurred Wednesday afternoon.

“They don’t know if there was any more spill,” John Chaudoin, dispatcher for Nelson County Dispatch, told The Enquire’s sister publication the Courier-Journal on Wednesday. “They’re still evaluating.”

WLKY reported that the company was in the process of cleaning up when the other half collapsed today.

I’m surprised the Moron-in-Chief didn’t include the usual Iran-bashing in this inane screed: IIRC, world oil markets edged up - among other reasons - in anticipation that the US is going to try to reduce Iranian oil exports to “zero” via an insanely restrictive sanctions regime*. Less Iranian oil on the market, of course, means less supply, therefore rising prices - mainly for the benefit of Trump’s BFFs, the Saudis, but that sort of basic economic principle is apparently beyond the capacity of The Donald’s pea-brain to grasp.

*good luck with that: I think China is Iran’s biggest oil customer under long-term purchase agreements: “zero” is probably the likelihood they’ll go along with The Idiot’s sanctions plan.

re: #62 Jay C

No, that was yesterday’s flat out lie based on a single sourced Fox article with info from an Iranian hardliner that claimed the US granted citizenship to 2,500 Iranians as part of the JCPOA. Not a single word of the claim is accurate.

The way disinformation is pushed out as propaganda. Basically an unhinged Iranian hardliner makes a false claim attacking Rouhani (‘2500 Iranians granted citizenship under JCPOA’) — Fox News peddles the claim, and Trump parrots Fox News.

No, I wasn’t referring to that: though thanks for the sourcing of that particular pile of bovine excrement: I was thinking of something I had read on a FP blog that the Trump Admin was readying plans to impose a strict, and worldwide, sanctions regime on Iran, focusing on (but not limited to) its oil exports: basically the usual Trumpian threats of severe sanctions and tariffs on any foreign government or business that does any sort of business with or in Iran of any kind. It’s not new, of course, I think they’ve been hawking this plan for a while: but the piece I read seemed to suggest that the idiots are actually planning to try to go through with it. And soon.

For a long time this was impossible without a kludgy Flash workaround, but in Javascript ES6 you can now copy some text to the clipboard with this nifty function:

const copyToClipboard = str => {
	const textarea = document.createElement('textarea'),
		selected = document.getSelection().rangeCount > 0
			? document.getSelection().getRangeAt(0)
			: false;
	textarea.value = str;
	textarea.setAttribute('readonly', '');
	textarea.style.position = 'absolute';
	textarea.style.left = '-9999px';
	document.body.appendChild(textarea);
	textarea.select();
	document.execCommand('copy');
	document.body.removeChild(textarea);
	if (selected) {
		document.getSelection().removeAllRanges();
		document.getSelection().addRange(selected);
	}
}

This function also saves and restores any existing selections, that would otherwise be lost when the injected textarea is selected.

A man and a woman from El Jebel are facing an initial charge of fourth-degree arson for allegedly starting the Lake Christine Fire by firing tracer rounds Tuesday evening at the Basalt shooting range, according to the Eagle County Sheriff’s Office.

Other charges may be filed against Richard Karl Miller, 23, and Allison Sarah Marcus, 22, after the investigation is concluded, according to Amber Barrett, a spokeswoman for the sheriff’s office. Both suspects live at the same address in El Jebel, Barrett said.

[…]

They could be potentially responsible for restitution for the firefighting effort up to $1 million, Barrett said.

Another idea is an electrostatic air cleaner. Not as expensive in terms of consumables. However, downside is some O₃.

Shit. There’s a strip mall near me with a big grocery store that I’ve shopped at for over 20 yrs. Other businesses all have come and gone, like a blockbuster store, martial arts school, hair and nail salon, etc. but the grocery store has been the constant. There’s been a unit empty in this little strip mall for over a year now and it looks like a “crisis pregnancy center” is going in. We already have one about 3 miles away in the other direction. I’ll be watching this closely…. I may need to go to Planned Parenthood and get some literature to hand out in front of the place. God I wish I could move away from this parade of idiots.

Also, and I hope this doesn’t piss anyone off, but is it just me or is anyone else sick of country music being the ONLY american music that matters? I hate it. I cannot stand 99 percent of this crap. Chris Stapleton is cool, maybe a couple others, but what about American rock bands? Why are there little if any 4th of July celebrations featuring rock and roll? We have some pretty good bands from the US, what the hell?

I’m starting more and more to think Pruitt will be gone by years end.

I don’t know what the temperature is here because it’s the kind of day when you don’t bother to look. Mid 70°s I think. Windows open, breezes blowing through… Don’t worry, they’re calling for low 90°s over the weekend so this won’t last. I’m taking advantage of all the open window weather by doing some interior painting. Not everything in the house, mostly just the doors and trim to brighten them up since I haven’t painted in over a decade.
I think I’m getting to old for consecutive days of painting. I have too many sore muscles at this point.

re: #157 Eclectic Cyborg

As I understand it, the administration may have trouble confirming a replacement who will do as much damage as Pruitt is doing. So they want to stick with him as long as possible.

re: #157 Eclectic Cyborg

I’m starting more and more to think Pruitt will be gone by years month’s end.

It should be “week’s end”, but there’s this holiday schedule……

re: #157 Eclectic Cyborg

I’m starting more and more to think Pruitt will be gone by years end.

It’s possible, but somewhere upthread it was mentioned that Trump can fire Sessions and install anyone else who cleared Senate approval for 200 days before they need to be approved again.

And that Pruitt somehow still has his law license. Moving him to (in)Justice to fire Rosenstein and Mueller, and establish it as Trump’s personal army, is not out of character for him, just a sign of a lack of character :-(
