Because I’m always amused at the horror of my friends whenever I break out the toolkit: pre-breakfast art hanging!
That said, this Ryobi battery has been hinky the last few times.
Might have to switch to the Bosch. Which is both a tool brand and a detective.
And yes it’s level @agflynn . Weighs a ton though, needed to throw wallbuddies on the back. Amazing the difference between glass (20 year old frame) and the plexi.

Look, the Founders were brilliant enough to provide a solution to this. If you don’t like it propose a Constitutional Amendment what will require a majority of the less populated states to vote to give up their own outsized power oh wait I see shit.
It is fascinating to see how people felt very free to aggressively fuck around with the fundamentals of the US government for the first 120 years or so, but after WW II we’ve been in this frozen “It’s perfect! We got it right! Adjust the margins and no more!”
The characterization of America as the surprising underdog quarterback who improbably to the team to State (won WW II), and has been getting fatter, slower, more nostalgic and less tolerant of change ever since only gets stronger every year.

1/ I will give a shit about these letters when I read a single leaked "agents implore their bosses to go back to the bargaining table." deadline.com/2019/05/wga-ag… via @Deadline
2/ Hey, remember when the agencies big offer was 1% of the package, with 0.2 of that going to "diversity"? Sell THAT'S some good faith bargaining.
3/ This is always the attitude of the press and power when this sort of conflict emerges: "Why can't [not the giant corporate money] be more reasonable when negotiating with [the corporate money]."

It's interesting "dignity" is a recurring theme with Biden. It scratches the same itch as the hurt pride and loss of status consuming so many voters, who are treated as commodities in late stage capitalism (or just old and ignored). It's the lighter side of the nerve Trump hit.
The way I always shorthand Humanism is "I believe in the fundamental dignity and worth of every other person, and I believe I have a responsibility to help as many people as I can as much as I can before I die." You see dignity pop up a lot in human rights writing.
"The dignity of work" is a bullshit phrase often meant to shame, and I prefer Warren WAY MORE on policy and will support her in the primary, but don't underestimate the resonance of that approach with older and more white bread voters.

Assam has been ruled by Congress with a brief break by AGP in between.

2014 26/126 (31.0%)

But it has collapsed drastically since the last few years.
From independence to 1985, Congress had ruled the state except a small break by Janata Party.

But it would be the rise of Janata Dal that would result in them losing power.

1990 71/324
1995 29/324

1/ “Observing without evaluation is the highest form of intelligence.” — J. Krishnamurti
2/ We create many problems for ourselves by using static engage to express or capture a reality that is ever changing — by mixing evaluation and observation.
3/ NVC doesn’t mandate that we remain completely objective and refrain from all judgements, just that we make a separation between our observations and evaluations, and, when we make judgements, make them specific to time and context.

Since it is #Bhamini & #ಹಳೇಸರಕು time, 😂 here is something I had written a while ago. Some history - I wrote and staged a Kannada play called "No.3, Panchavati" and during that time wrote a few verses calling them "THe first day at Panchavati" -verses to follow in this thread.
The inspiration for the verses was this art by Ramesh Acharya:

ತರುಣಿ ಹರಿಯುವ ನದಿಯ ನೋಡುತ
ಲರುಹಿದಳು ತನ್ನಿನಿಯ ರಾಮಗೆ
ಹರುಷ ತರುವೀ ತಾಣವಿದು ಬಲು ಸೊಗಸುಕಾಣುತಿದೆ|
ಸುರಗಿ ಹೂಗಳು ಬಿರಿದು ಸುತ್ತಲು
ಪರಿಮಳವ ಹರಡಿಹವು ಕೇಳ್ ನಾ-
ವಿರಲಿಕಿದುವೇ ಸೊಗದ ನೆಲೆಯಹುದೆಂದಳಾ ಸೀತೆ || 1 ||

#Bhamini #Shatpadi #ಭಾಮಿನಿ #ಷಟ್ಪದಿ
ಇಳೆಯ ತನುಜೆಯ ಕೂಡೆ ರಾಮನು
ಬಳಿಯ ಗೋದಾವರಿಯ ದಡದ-
ಲ್ಲಿಳಿದು ನಿಂತನು ಮೆಚ್ಚಿದನು ಎಡೆ ತಕ್ಕುದಹುದೆನುತ |
ಉಳಿದಿರುವ ವನವಾಸ ಕಾಲವ
ಕಳೆಯೆ ಸೊಗವಿದೆನುತಿರೆ ಸುತ್ತಣ
ಗಿಳಿಯವಿಂಡುಗಳಳಿಸಮೂಹವು ಹರ್ಷ ತೋರಿದವು || 2 ||

#Bhamini #Shatpadi #ಭಾಮಿನಿ #ಷಟ್ಪದಿ

So let me explain why changing your gender marker is so important to transgender people. You don't need to particularly agree with me, but let me just tell you the reality of what it's done for my life.
When I came to understand that I was transgender, I effectively reached this point where I understood that if I didn't change certain things, I would never be able to have the quality of life I wanted.
When I was younger, most stories of trans people we're stories of then transitioning to disappear. People being able to transition and seamlessly mesh into society without being noticed. Of course this relied a lot on a trans person's ability to look cis and be accepted.
