  • Hymn of Breaking Strain, Kipling

    1 The careful text-books measure (Let all who build beware!) The load, the shock, the pressure Material can bear. So, when the buckled girder Lets down the grinding span, The blame of loss, or murder, Is laid upon the man. Not on the Stuff—the Man! 2 But in our daily dealing With stone and steel, we find The Gods have no such feeling Of justice toward mankind. To no set gauge they make us— For no laid course prepare— And presently o'ertake us With loads we cannot bear: Too merciless to bear.3 The prudent text-books give it In tables at the end– The stress that shears a rivet Or makes a tie-bar bend— What traffic wrecks macadam— What concrete should endure— But we, poor Sons of Adam Have no such literature, To warn us or make sure! 4 We hold all Earth to plunder— All Time and Space as well— Too wonder-stale to wonder At each new miracle; Till, in the mid-illusion Of Godhead 'neath our hand, Falls multiple confusion On all we did or planned— The mighty works we planned. 5 We only of Creation (Oh, luckier bridge and rail!) Abide the twin damnation— To fail and know we fail. Yet we–by which sure token We know we once were Gods— Take shame in being broken However great the odds— The Burden or the Odds. 6 Oh, veiled and secret Power Whose paths we seek in vain, Be with us in our hour Of overthrow and pain; That we–by which sure token We know Thy ways are true— In spite of being broken, Because of being broken, May rise and build anew. Stand up and build anew!

  • Not an issue I have at the tip of my tongue, so if that's a gotcha, consider me got. :)

  • The Republican Party Has a Nazi Problem | How did the GOP become a haven for slogans and ideas straight out of the Third Reich?

    Jump

  • It's a big tent, and they let the Nazis in. So now it's a Nazi bar, and kicking them out would now be a Problem.

  • I feel they don't have to lobby very hard. Kinda got gravity working for them since we're already a gas station for the USA.

  • That is an interesting thought. And y'know, it's not like English hasn't had competing spellings for words before.

    As long as there's a valid etymology, I'd treat either as correct. But granted, they can become correct through use even if it does come from a bone-apple-tea situation.

  • EU says US must honor a trade deal after court blocks Trump tariffs

  • It took Germany 50 years to rebuild trust.

  • Right at the start of the biggest energy transition since the invention of gasoline, I might add.

    Canada has the same problem. We're too closely tied to the USA and our leadership is also doubling down.

    We're so fucked.

  • EU says US must honor a trade deal after court blocks Trump tariffs

    Jump

  • No. If a Trump can arise once, it can arise again. This lands on the USA, not Trump. They have proven that their system lacks the ability to hold to an honourable agreement.
