That's OK. Stay unvaccinated. And die. -

Advice for stupid Republicans.
Now, Democrats want to actually fix things. Here's how:
First, shut off the water supplies under the sink (both hot and cold). Then, relieve pressure by lifting faucet handle. There will be a set screw on the handle possibly hidden. Before doing any repairs, make sure to place stopper or towel in sink to prevent losing any parts down the drain! Loosen set screw on handle (probably requires Allen wrench) and remove handle. Then, using adjustable jaw pliers (with a rag to protect chrome) unscrew the cap (lefty loosey) and remove the ball. Inside you will find two rubber cups with a conical spring under each. Remove and inspect for any minerals. Now would be a good time to pour vinegar into the area to dissolve any crusty minerals. When minerals are all dissolved, replace the rubber cup and springs with new and reassemble. Turn on waters and test. Enjoy!
PS: I actually just now watched the video and they say to replace the ball assembly. I've made this repair numerous times over the years and have never had to replace the ball assembly myself. -

What are you saying, Skunk? Are you a snitch for the Feds and this is your warning to the Feds to be on the look out for Speculum (___________) in the Washington, D.C. area and to monitor his activities very closely? Possibly note any of his associates he meets up with over the next few weeks especially leading up to August 16th (I think. Hell, I cant keep the dates of all the times Trump was promised reinstatement)? Maybe they need to confiscate his weapons?
And...you don't scare anyone with your new avatar of some pimply faced kid pointing a gun. -

Petition to Stop Jeff Bezos Re-Entering Earth After Space Flight Signed by Thousands
James Crump
A petition set up to stop Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos from being allowed to re-enter Earth after his upcoming space flight has been signed by close to 7,000 people.
Blue Origin, the rocket company owned by Bezos, announced on June 7 that the Amazon CEO and his brother, Mark, would be two of three people launching to 62 miles above the Earth's surface, aboard the company's first human flight on July 20.
The trip, which will be on the company's New Shepard spacecraft, will occur 15 days after Bezos steps down as Amazon's CEO—a role he has served in for 27 years.
Several social media users responded jokingly to the news. While on Thursday, June 10, a petition was set up on Change.Org by user Jose Ortiz, who titled it: "Petition To Not Allow Jeff Bezos Re-Entry To Earth."
"Jeff Bezos is actually Lex Luthor, disguised as the supposed owner of a super successful online retail store," Ortiz jokingly wrote in the petition, in reference to the DC Comics character that Bezos is often likened to. "However, he's actually an evil overlord hellbent on global domination."
Ortiz concluded the petition: "Sign the petition. Share with your friends and family. The fate of humanity is in your hands."
At the time of writing, the petition has been signed by 6,832 people, of the initial target of 7,500, with several users explaining why they supported the petition. One person wrote: "Do not come back take Elon with you," in reference to Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and rocket company SpaceX.
Bezos and his brother will be joined by a mystery individual on the flight on July 20, after someone paid $28 million at an auction that attracted interest from more than 140 countries.
Prior to the auction on Saturday, June 12, the top bid stood at $5 million, but that figure quickly increased by nearly five times that amount, before it concluded later in the day.
Blue Origin tweeted that the identity of the winner will be revealed in the next few weeks and confirmed that the $28 million will be donated to Club for the Future, a charity run by the organization that hopes "to inspire future generations to pursue careers in STEM," according to its website.
The auction for the very first seat on #NewShepard has concluded with a winning bid of $28 million. The winning bid amount will be donated to Blue Origin’s foundation, @ClubforFuture. Full replay of the auction webcast: https://t.co/5Vc8IvWxJR pic.twitter.com/IlGbgOFmhx
Bezos, his brother and the mystery bidder will have to endure up to 5.5 gs of force during the rocket-powered ascent, according to Blue Origin's terms and conditions. The rocket will reach 328,000 feet before coming back to Earth on July 20th, but the 11 minute flight will not include a pilot as it is autonomous.
New Shepard, which is named after the first American to travel to space, Alan Shepard, is Blue Origin's reusable launch vehicle.
The company's rocket has been designed to eventually take astronauts and research payloads past the internationally recognized boundary of space, known as the Kármán line. -

Here's a pick of an old used one for sale.

I've had mine for 40 or fifty years and it still works fine. All I've ever had to do to it was to replace a few tips over the years.
