Qualifier: I live a couple counties over and that county is as redneck as it gets.

Yeah, the likelihood of Yakima County doing anything is practically nil.

I'm still giggling at the idea that Yakima is anywhere near Malheur, tho. That's like saying Seattle had something to do with Helena when the Unabomber got caught.

From what I've seen on the Internet the Dutch (aka swamp Germans) will fight to the death over this, saying that no it's not racist how dare you try to ruin my childhood, etc.

Europeans: "Europe is far more progressive and enlightened than racist AMERIKKKA!"
the same Europeans: "Americans are too overly sensitive about race and need to stop complaining about my country's tradition of 'spank the negro', where we send a man in blackface down the main street and everybody hits him with a switch to celebrate the expulsion of the Moors and Jews from the country in 1572"

It's like that old "What if news reports about the US reported things like how the western media reports on the developing world?" satire.

From the Americas desk:

WASHINGTON DC - Australian wildland firefighters advising regional officials in the Oregon province 700 miles north of the regional capital of San Francisco came under fire last week when they were targeted by tribal hunters seeking to shoot animals fleeing the wildfires that have swept through the region. The Australian consulate lodged official complaint, but as of Monday local officials had declined to prosecute the hunters for fear of inflaming tensions that recently boiled over in the 2016 uprising by anti-government militants at the Malheur National Park.

I've got a book on large ship maintainence from the the early 'teens that has a big section on confined spaces. It basically says never, ever, try to save someone who collapses inside of a tank when they're cleaning it. You'll be unconscious before you get to the bottom of the ladder.

It doesn't even suggest trying to save them. It just says it's all body recovery at that point. The iron rusts in the empty tank which sucks all the oxygen out of the air. You pass out without even knowing that anything is wrong.

It also mentions that the same thing happens in the chain room of a big ship. The rust steals all the O2.

I like my coffee with cream and lsd.

I did this once except with a pallet of 30 five gallon jugs of water. Those plastic jugs are pretty sturdy but when they pop it's like the splash zone on a water ride.

Only took the one time to remember not to be backing up (while looking behind of course) while lowering the mast at the same time. I'm just thankful it didn't happen with the glass jugs of fancy, overpriced spring water

It is at least more interesting, even if less accurate.

It reminds me of sitting around with the rest of the men from my family while the women were having a wedding shower inside, and were started trying to describe the even as if we were anthropologists talking about a tribal ritual.

"The shower is an important preparation ritual that must take place days before the wedding. The women will spend hours painting their faces getting ready for the gathering. All males will be banished from the house until it's conclusive, including the dog. Once the men are gone, there will be drinks, food, games, and then gifts for the bride to be. The women will exchange marital advice, and the older women will focus on sex. The old women seem to enjoy talking about younger women having sex, and revel in the bride's embarrassment at their questions and suggestions, which would be considered inappropriate in any other context."

To be Captain Buzzkill here, those legs look like they have dirt/rust a fair amount of the way up the unpainted part. Meaning this has been in the ground and was removed and is sitting there post-removal.

I know a bunch of Dutch people here in the US, and only on or two were willing to admit that black piet was racist.
How many YTs do you know willing to admit the US is a racist country, for comparisons sake?
Not saying the Dutch arent racist (Ive lived there and experienced it first hand), but lets not start being ridiculous.

We're all going to experience changes in our life but only the best of us will qualify for front row seats.

It's not just that we've got this racist addition to a children's holiday, it's that we are always pretending that we are so considerate to other cultures and that we embrace them. gently caress that, if that really was the case a party who wants to basically abolish freedom of religion would get shot out of cannon instead of getting votes (not part of the governing coalition, but still).

It's probably bump cap rated. The suspension does all of the work unless the shell is forcibly penetrated so the only down rating that gets is that the divot doesn't cause things to glance like a normal hat.

Good time to remind everyone if you ever whack your hard hat hard enough to think twice it's time to replace at least the harness and a broken connection between the harness and the shell means you're going to get brained nearly as hard as if you had no hard hat
