Link Log for 3.31.26

Politics, Practical 

There are people who, if others don't interfere, will become literal "backyard breeders" keeping thirty good-sized pedigreed dogs in an average-sized yard with, apparently, zero poop-scoopers. Then there are people who live in a house with ample room for six dogs and three cats--I used to post to this web site from one of them--and the house is clean, is in fact maintained like a tourist attraction because the owners sell art and furniture out of it, and the animals are well kept and disciplined and friendly and a joy to visit. 

The Loony Left think the way to protect the dogs from being forced to breed in a lake of filth is to issue diktats about how many animals one family can keep.

The American way, which my mother once successfully used, is for local government to stay out of the matter until a critical number of citizens petition to do something about a specific situation. My parents once rented the house next door to the people with, actually it was twenty-some poodles, and no scoopers. It took them less than a week to collect enough signatures to get that yard cleaned and some of the dogs rehomed.


Trivia 

Who knew the different shapes of teapots had names? 


Women's Issues 

Misogynist mayor feels "divisive" about a memorial to a victim of hatecrimes against women. Women in Providence should demand that the memorial be replaced by a minimum of twenty memorials to other, almost certainly less pretty, female victims of male violence. (And that the gender-confused shut their fool mouths and stay out of it.)
