This is the real issue and why you need a modern transfer switch. Lineman is working on the transformer on the pole, "it's fine we cut it off upstream and I checked" and BOOM anyway
This is all reasonably accurate. Source: electrician, who worked at a supply store for a while. I've had people ask how to make all kinds of stupid cords.
If you don't know what you're doing, don't fool with electricity
I've definitely worked with someone who made that joke every time he popped a hole in his cutters. I need to remember that when I can afford a helper to tell jokes to.
'You are what you eat,' the Blue Fairy told Pinocchio, who turned his gaze on the elementary school.
Removed unnecessary adjectives, they distract from the punch imo
I believe it flows better this way, too. The reader goes directly from A to B to C with a brief stop at horror between B and C, right where you want it.
Oh! Lookie here, a fascist for breakfast. My day is off to a lovely start.
The difference is in the history. America has NEVER been honest about its origins. No other modern nation was built on slavery like we were. Britain abolished it decades before America. And after WWII, they gave up the rest of their colonies because it was the right thing to do. That's when the American Empire took off. Naval bases in every country. Global watchdog, above the laws everyone else has to follow.
America? It only stopped genociding Indians when they were such a small population that they couldn't pose a threat to the white man, and it still fucks them over every chance it can. Edit: oh yeah, and then it painted them as villains in cowboy movies for half a century. Nice.
Racism is so deeply embedded in America that the simple claim that black lives matter turned into a controversy. You know what a normal nation would've done? Examine their police. Us? We said fuck those people, let the racist cops do whatever they want. Do you have any clue what it's like to raise a black son in America? I'm white myself so I can't speak firsthand, but I have talked to numerous people who've told me about "the Talk". You know about this? It's not the birds and the bees, it's about how to behave around cops so they don't kill you. How insanely fucked up does your country have to be for that??
This is called honesty. Progress can't be made without it.
I've made it my life's work to fight white supremacy in the blue collar South and I'll fucking devour you whole.
Edit: I'd like to print out to anyone stumbling across this that that sumbitch knows I'm right and is lying bloodied in the mud at my feet, crying, like a little bitch. Just like the ones I've beaten in real life after they insisted on dancing. Bullies have come after me my whole fuckin life and I've learned EXACTLY how they work. I know the strategies fascists use on forums like these. And I'll bet you've logged me, maybe you've got someone looking into me. I don't doubt the fascist Musk's AI has flagged me for all kinds of shit and it's just a matter of time now.
I ain't fuckin scared of you, and your mother should be ashamed.
