I have seen a lot of Conservatives mock this Tweet:

I used to use space heaters to heat my home because we couldn't afford the gas bill. One day the outlet started shooting out flames and nearly burned down my 2-year-old baby's room.

We almost lost our baby. We almost lost our home. Public power could have prevented this.

They are thinking about it all wrong.

She’s right.

In socialist countries they have public power.

That power doesn’t provide electricity to most of the people.

Without power, overloaded outlets can’t catch fire.

QED, socialist public electricity prevents house fires.

The right to own doesn’t mean they should own.  Some people are just fucking stupid.

Houston mom shot son while aiming at escaped puppy: cops

A Houston mother accidentally shot her 5-year-old son while trying to fire at a puppy that got loose in her neighborhood, police said.

Cops responded Saturday and found the child struck in the abdomen by a ricocheting bullet, Houston police said Tuesday.

“Investigators learned the child’s mother, suspect Vargas, had fired a small caliber pistol three times at a dog running loose across the street,” police said in a statement.

The dog that dashed outside, a 6-month-old boxer puppy named Bruno, was not seriously wounded by the gunfire, police said.

The pup’s owner told KTRK Bruno ran out as he opened the “door just a little bit” while thinking his brother was there and got the dog excited.

“So, I open the door just a little bit and he comes running out,” said the man, who asked not to be identified.

Bruno was grazed by a bullet to the leg, but was otherwise OK, his owner said. The man received a citation for having a loose dog, police said.

First, just a side note.  The puppy dashes out of a partially open door and the cops give him a citation for a loose dog?  Fuck them and “bAcK tHe bLuE” crowd, that’s bullshit.  The puppy just got out, he wasn’t letting it roam the neighborhood all day.

To the thesis of this post, who shoots at a 6 month old boxer puppy that got out?

That is extreme level dumbass, and she hits her own kid.

Fuck her straight to jail.

Her mug shot is in the article.

I have to say, I wouldn’t be opposed to having a disqualifying question added to the 4473: “Do you have a face or neck tattoo?”

That will probably save a lot of lives.

Fucking dumbass.

All the people with the deep pain of having family in hospitals that died alone and abandoned. All that rage you have that made you swear whomever was responsible for such criminal and inhumane decision needs to be purged atom by atom from this world, now you know who to aim your anger.

And you may want to act fast because close behind are the people of those who died or are dying because they could not seek treatment for regular sickness because the hospital were sequestered to “Flatten The Curve” and let doctors and nurses make dancing videos in TikTok.

As I said, just this once.

Apropos of nothing, a note sent from Hell for the good doctor F.

I had to replace a couple of tiles in a shower where I had installed a safety bar for mom. Here is the video I checked:

I did things a bit different. I scoured the grout first with a tile grout saw making sure there was a “canal” for the blade to run. It also helped weaken the grout itself, a plus. And yes, the utility knife works like a charm.

After that and since holes were already made, I tapped the tile repeatedly but gently with a regular hammer till it cracked and fell. Don’t go gorilla or you may miss and screw a good tile or the backboard. No chisel, but a flat screwdriver just to help a stubborn piece fall without tapping it with the hammer but using it as pry bar.

And take it really slow with the hammer. you have all the time in the world, actually you may take under 5 minutes per tile. I patched the holes with a waterproof spackle designed for exterior and now I wait for it till tomorrow to dry before doing the rest.

Seriously, the utility blade trick is the key, it gave me a clean removal. And this is coming from one who has a long list of effed up tiles in his history 😀
