Some people are practically born with an unwavering passion for the outdoors. They are the kids who will take any chance they can get to explore all that nature has to offer. When it’s time to go home, they beg to stay outside for “just five more minutes.” Then there are those of us who are like Violet. Based on a viral video shared by her parents online, it’s safe to say that this toddler is not a fan of nature. Or, at the very least, she only enjoys nature from afar. While the other kids are enjoying their time, Violet is quick to voice her opinions. Which is to say that she would honestly be just about anywhere else in that moment. But her ideal place? At home, burrito in hand, without a single bug or blade of grass in sight. See this adorable toddler adorably express herself in the video below! @thedashleys Someone get this girl a burrito #nature #sheactuallylikesnature #shesjusttired #andhasarockinherArielshoes ♬ original sound – Thedashleys After a Day Spent in Nature, This Toddler Has Had Enough Between having a rock in her shoe, and not having a burrito, it’s no wonder why Violet is at the end of her rope. Still, for how upset she is with not being at home, it’s genuinely impressive the way she is able to articulate how she’s feeling. That’s just part of the reason why so many people are loving this video of the toddler! “Burrito and AC solve 99% of my problems too,” one person shares in the comment section of the video, with another adding, “I’ve never related to a 3 year old so much.” “Violet rolling down the road on her scooter KILLED me,” a third person shares. “Baby said, ‘If y’all ain’t gon take me home, I’ll go on my own. GO AWAY.'” You can find the source of this story’s featured image here! The post “3-Year-Old Tries Nature For The First Time” & Her Reaction Is Hilarious appeared first on InspireMore.

A roundup of mysterious, paranormal and strange news stories from the past week.

News consumers are often unaware of just how friendly the power players in Washington are, and those relationships are often undisclosed. You can tell that Trump haters have a common cause, but it can go much deeper than that. On CNN’s “The Lead with Jake Tapper” on September 3, the host brought on Atlantic editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg to promote his new book (of old essays) titled “On Heroism: McCain, Milley, Mattis, and the Cowardice of Donald Trump." These two men are obviously allies. But they’re also good friends. This made me recall the newest season of the Netflix food show “Somebody Feed Phil,” starring Phil Rosenthal, the creator of the sitcom “Everybody Loves Raymond.” In an episode touting food spots in Washington, D.C., he had dinner with Goldberg and Tapper at the Indian restaurant Rasika. The first clue of the friendship is Tapper walking in and tickling the back of Goldberg’s head. Tapper announced, “His kids babysat for my kids.” This doesn’t appear in an on-screen graphic when Goldberg appears on Tapper’s show. Later, he mocked Goldberg when he started talking about his visit to a nuclear bunker. That’s a Washington flex, Tapper said, like saying “once I was talking to Fidel Castro over mojitos…” Tapper clearly thrilled Goldberg when Rosenthal asked if they were optimistic or pessimistic about the future. Tapper declared: “I’ve just never been in a time where like, things that I’ve took [sic] for granted -- like democracy, and respecting the right of people to vote and all that – were so just like, so nakedly being torn down by major leaders.” He clearly wouldn't include Democrats trying to tear Trump's name off the ballot, amd forcing Joe Biden out of the race, and then trying to keep third-party leftists Jill Stein and Cornel West off the ballot while, at the same time, trying to keep Robert F. Kennedy Jr's name on the ballot after he left the race and endorsed Trump. In Tapper’s latest Goldberg interview, they discussed John McCain’s son Jim endorsing Kamala Harris. Goldberg implied that’s how John McCain would have voted this year. Then they decried Trump visiting Arlington Cemetery with grieving Gold Star families and filming the visit. Neither man acknowledged uncomfortable truths, such as John McCain filming a campaign advertisement at Arlington, not to mention the professional photographs Joe Biden had taken there. All this gave Goldberg the license to repeat his magazine’s most hostile Donald Trump stories: “He obviously, very famously got out of Vietnam. He equally famously has referred to people who get killed on behalf of the country as suckers and losers.”  Goldberg mused to Rosenthal that social media is a “vast unregulated experiment,” but no one regulates Goldberg for repeating claims for which he has no evidence – nothing recorded, just claimed. Many people around Trump said it never happened. Tapper then asked why Trump-hating generals like Milley and Mattis won’t openly come out for Harris. “The military is apolitical,” claimed Goldberg without giggling. Because soon he admitted that generals “let it be known, through journalists and other means, what happened inside the White House in Donald Trump’s first term.” “The military is apolitical,” except when they leak to anti-Trump news outlets about how horrible Trump is. Which makes them political, especially the staying-anonymous part. They’re about as apolitical as Goldberg and Tapper. When the interview was over, Tapper announced Goldberg’s Trump-the-coward book title again and said “Congratulations. I read them when you first wrote them. And I’ll read them again. This nice little book, good!” All we were missing was Tapper tickling Goldberg’s head.

How did America and the Allies win against Japan in WW2? Once the USAAF had bombed everything possible in Japan and had actually run out of targets to continue that bombing campaign, still the Japanese…

The New Republic, a publication I can vaguely recall from my youth (when people last cared about it), is saying the quiet part out loud: “Kamala Harris Doesn’t Need Policy to Win.” This might be…

“The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command. His heart sank as he thought of the enormous power arrayed against him, the ease with which any Party intellectual would overthrow him in debate, the subtle arguments which he would not be able to understand, much less answer. And yet he was in the right! They were wrong and he was right.” – George Orwell, 1984 The post The Editors’ Quote of the Day: appeared first on SurvivalBlog.com.

(Continued from Part 3.) 7×57 Mauser Here is one good 7×57 Mauser load: Federal Power-Shok Jacketed Soft Point 175 Grain 7mm Mauser.  It has a muzzle velocity of 2,390 fps. 6.5×55 Swedish Mauser My preferred roundnose 6.5×55 Swedish Mauser load uses a Hornady 160 grain RN at 2,400 fps. Round nosed bullets are falling into disuse. I was only able to find one manufacturer offering loaded 6.5×55 round nosed soft point ammunition and it was at an excessively high price. Reloaders have either Hornady or Sierra RN bullets to choose from. I have plenty in stock.
