Gendered languages are weird. Why are "day" and "night" different genders in #Spanish?
#Target presumably would have pulled menorahs and dreidels in the late 1930s too.
What better way to start my presidential campaign than by co-hosting it with the world's current highest-profile failure?
Can we pass a law saying that if anyone objects to someone objecting to a book, then it can't be banned?
Oh, wait, we already did that. It's called the 1st Amendment. #1A
Sorry, Canada.
Nice! Local darling restaurant Hamburger Mary's is fighting the DeSantis nanny state.

Florida MAGA Gov Desantis is signing HB 7 to "ban teachers from making students feel guilt or shame about their race because of historical events."
I've said this before.
Some white Americans were abolitionists, and many were enslavers. If learning about America's history of racism makes you feel guilty, then you need to explain why you associate more with enslaver guilt than with abolitionist pride.
Might just be that you're telling on yourself.
Next, I needed to figure out the gear faces. I want the designs to be crisp and readable, so free painting is out of the question (too finicky). I considered printing the design into the face as recessions that could be filled with paint, but that's pretty finicky too. Then, I realized I could just print the pattern negative space and put that over a white sheet of paper to show only the design I wanted to see.
Unfortunately, I ran into precision issues on this one too, as you can see in the image below.
Ultimately, I think I'll just be printing the designs onto paper and pasting that on the back of the dial. But it'll have to wait until I get a replacement ink cartridge for my printer.
