Franco is going to come back
When you’re a migrant you don’t have to respect the locals and can do whatever you want because the politicians have the cops on a leash.
This North African migrant rode a scooter in a church in Spain while his friend filmed it, to mock Catholics and to rub it in their faces. pic.twitter.com/eboGDx1lWU

There was a time in Spain’s relatively recent history, that the Guardia Civil, in their stupid patent leather tricorn hats, could straight up murder your ass on behalf of the state.
That is going to make a comeback.

I don’t think that’s a cat. Thats either an alien or a demon in a cat skin suit.
The phrasing of this headline inspired mockery
"Dearest Sarah,
Our war against Texan aggression is not going well. We are unable to slow their advancement. They have constructed a Buc-ee's 80 miles from Nashville. I fear it that if our counterattack fails, soon they will erect Big Tex over Dollywood." https://t.co/n2mGUpVFtS

J.Kb. has some items for sale there in The Shop
Yesterday was the 13th anniversary of the delivery of my machine shop. Wednesday, I was working in the shop and felt like I actually knew what I was doing.
I have a new project, making springs. This is to repair an oil can check valve. I also noticed a need for custom springs in certain objects that are dealing with reciprocating masses and loud noises.
I need to make mandrels and a wire feed device. The choices are: Blondihacks, This Old Tony, simple stupid, and simple not stupid.
My current inclination is to go with simple, not stupid. This is a cylinder with an 1/8 hole down the center almost to the end. The end is cone-shaped. The top of that cone is cut off, exposing the center drilled hole. A V notch is then cut from the end of the hole to the tip of the cone.
This is a standard design. I am going to augment this with a flat cut on the top for alignment purposes and a tensioning screw on the side. It looks like I can use brass or a brass tipped setscrew for this.
We are looking for the Supreme Court to do something on the PICA cases from Illinois soon. We are waiting for the Supreme Court to issue their opinion in Rahimi any day now.
Have a great weekend! Please let us know what you are thinking about, any stories we should have covered, and so forth.
Interesting looking
…and that is about it.
It reminds me of the vehicles in the Sci-Fi movies and shows I saw growing up in the 70s. Other than that, and the wicked urge to test rifle calibers on it, it is not my thing.
