The SAVE Act is back before Congress again. It's NOT a voter ID bill, and it's aim is NOT really to stop non-citizens from voting. It's a voter registration bill that will create roadblocks for many American citizens to register to vote. Tell your representatives to vote NO on the SAVE Act.

Watergate, but if someone was killed.
NYT confirming MS NOW reporting:
Prosecutors began investigating Renee Good's killing, then Washington told them to stop.
Federal prosecutors had a warrant to collect evidence from Good's vehicle, but Trump leaders said to drop it. About a dozen prosecutors have since departed.

This is a 2-minute read. You'll learn something powerful. Both my parents were alive in 1948 when this happened. Law enforcement agreed that the act was in self-defense, but refused the Ingrams their right to defend their own lives. If you can't protect your property from theft, you don't own it.
On this day in 1948, an all-white jury sentenced a Black woman and two of her teenage sons to death for killing an armed white man in self-defense.

One of my favorite things I've learned from a #GURPS book:
Using a pick to loosen packed earth makes digging much faster than shovel alone.
I bought a pick - turns out this also works very well on heavy (salted gritted, plow-piled) snow and driveway/stair ice! My winter shoveling was much eased.

Y'know how older gamers say that old #GURPS source books are still great references for their topic? We still make those. I've written most of the Hot Spots series, gamer-friendly and almost system free treatments of a bunch of historical locations. Venice! The Silk Road! Constantinople!
