As with many people (I suspect) I can not help thinking that the great Reflecting Pool debacle simply mirrors the debasement of the US by Trump and his supporters.

Slavery is doomed, and that within a few years. Even Judge Douglas admits it to be an evil, and an evil can’t stand discussion. In discussing it we have taught a great many thousands of people to hate it who had never given it a thought before. What kills the skunk is the publicity it gives itself. What a skunk wants to do is to keep snug under the barn in daytime, when men are around with shotguns.
Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865) American lawyer, politician, US President (1861-65)
Interview (1859-09-17?) with David R. Locke, Columbus, OhioMore about this quote: wist.info/lincoln-abraham/4124…

The huge US toxic fire shrouded in secrecy: ‘I taste oil in my mouth’
At 8.04am on 25 August last year, Darnell Alboudoor watched a plume of #black #smoke blanketing the sky and rolling in the direction of her family home.
A #stench like burning oil filled the air on that piping hot summer morning, as Alboudoor, 54, looked in the direction of the sprawling #petroleum #refinery, which sat a few hundred feet from her back yard.
She called 911.
“I’m just wondering what’s going on over there,” she told the operator. “Nobody tells us nothing.”
“They’re handling it,” the operator responded. “Nothing to worry about.”
There was no need to evacuate, Alboudoor was told, as she expressed her concerns over the fumes.
“I just want to know why we weren’t aware of this,” Alboudoor said. “Why are we just finding out about it now?”
Unbeknownst to Alboudoor and the thousands of other south-east Louisiana residents who lived next door,
🆘the facility had been leaking for more than 13 hours.
A storage tank containing at least 26,000 barrels of the flammable hydrocarbon #naphtha had been
💥on fire for about an hour and a half. -
@paradice - this is precisely why I left the instant Muskrat took over. KNEW this shit would happen - and worse.
-
@noondlyt - my choice to leave the instant he was in charge keeps getting validated. He is SO ODIOUS and SO OBVIOUS. Eccchhh.
-
@Deathsjoker - knowing who and what Muskrat IS it was a completely reflexive move. Musk in, Me out.

@CdnCurmudgeon I like the word: :#Stench: re #DougFord.

How to clean your Apple Watch sport solo loop band if it has a bad smell? Wash it with soap and/or baking soda. After this it will be like new. #applewatch #band #applewatchband #bakingsoda #smell #stink #stench

Speaking about Album suchten: Die beiden Alben (In Putrescence und Venture) von Stench haben einen Ehrenplatz in meiner Playlist. So oft gehört und jedesmal aufs neue geil. Eher deathened Blackmetal, dabei super crispy sound, trotzdem raw und brutal und exzellente Kompositionen.
Und ordentlich tempo, wie ich es mag. :)
Wäre toll, wenn da nochmal was käme.#Stench #blackmetal #tribulation
