@fu@libranet.de They were "Indian Territory" at the time, but wedged between TX (CSA) and MO (USA, but some state leaders formed a rival CSA gov't in the SW corner until the union pushed them out), they were still right there in the thick of things.

When they became a state, riding right on the the top of Texas had to be a big influence.

@fu That's surprising at first, until one realizes it is the same kind of "Noble South" BS that many states down there teach.

They teach that wasn't the South that started the Civil War ("The War of Northern Aggression") by attacking a Union fort, it was the Union that started the war by not giving in on several contented issues (slavery was on the list, but they pretend they didn't start killing other White people over the belief that a few wealthy White landowners should own Black people.

Likewise, it wasn't that widespread but undocumented rumors of cheating in a closely observed election were not sufficient to overturn the election results, it was patriots on 2021-01-06 were not successful in persuading politicians to stop the election from being stolen.

I was sick for a week and was only able to force myself to eat three times. I still feel little desire for food, but it was no longer an effort, so I ate yogurt, meat, cheese, noodles, and a protein shake. I'm walking with less feeling of weakness.

For someone who was born hungry, I've never had to force myself to eat. But this week, I don't desire food, so if I eat, it is because I'm forcing myself.

Pretty rough week. From last Sunday night, I've had chills, joint pain, muscle pain, sweats, no energy, no appetite, Son_2 is going to try to take me to a medical facility on Monday.

@fu @darnell I suspect that it won't stop under-16s from watching videos that the NZ government doesn't think they should see.

We've all heard stories about teens finding out how to get past blocks on school campuses.

@moon@shitposter.world I think I've only learned this in the last five years or so. This is something that should be taught in schools.

I noticed several years back that most people in MO | KS | NE seemed to be nicer than people in other states where I worked. More like people were in the SGV area of SoCal when I was growing up.

I think we're going to use talkbox dot mom for Grandson_5's foreign language learning. We can teach the whole family using equivalents of phrases we already use. Still have to choose a language, but we've been experimenting.

I love the comment thread. Someone responded in 2018, mentioned that they were learning Dutch. And for years, people have been asking that person to return and say how well their Dutch learning went.

The entire crowd seems to be having fun with it (except one person who doesn't get the joke).

Long Bluesky image link of a tornado in Texas that rotated backwards ... in the Northern Hemisphere, they normally rotate counter-clockwise (CCW), but this one rotated clockwise, according to the original post.

Grandson_5 having a 9.5/10 level meltdown because daughter-in-law let him play in the mud and didn't immediately put him in the tub when he got out of the mud.

Sometimes I'm really surprised at this sort of thing.

Grandson_5 (age 2.5) was still sleeping in a crib because he wouldn't stay in his bed. But as of yesterday, he can climb out of the crib, so he's back to the bed. (This is ~1 year later than either GS3 or GS4.))
