Good post.

I bought the beginner's stuff for learning crochet last winter break (because who wouldn't want an amigurumi Yoda??) and then things got really complicated and I never actually tried it.

Hoping maybe this winter break will be the one where I learn.

@reformed-republican "treated much more leniently then men by the justice system" is going to have to be qualified. Do we think the justice system, for example, does a good job with sexual assault? The examples above, as do the countless other examples available via any cursory search, suggest it doesn't. Do we think the justice system does a good job with abuse? The example above, as do countless other examples via any cursory search, suggest it doesn't. If you only look at what the justice system does at the very end, your numbers might play out, but that isn't reflective of the entirety of the system as it functions.

But don’t the American citizens living in the Rust Belt have an expectation that their elected officials negotiate trade agreements that result in a benefit to the American citizens?

I guess that depends. If, for example, the businesses in the Rust Belt had been operating in ways that were terribly inefficient in multiple ways, and perhaps they survived solely because of protectionist trade policies, then one would expect that such businesses would either evolve or die when such trade policies were discontinued.

Now, one could criticize the US government for failing to protect the employees of said businesses while allowing the responsible leadership (both corporate and Union) to slip away on golden parachutes, but that isn't the fault of Free Trade Agreements.

Unless said free trade agreements specifically tie the hands of governments from interfering in the collapse of local businesses, or the employment of golden escape devices.

But don't the American citizens living in the Rust Belt have an expectation that their elected officials negotiate trade agreements that result in a benefit to the American citizens?

And the citation of Article IV was meant as a whimsical joke, but its endearing that you looked it up.

And hey wait a minute!

If GATT is about "free" trade, why do they need "special" provisions for film?
Shouldn't "free" trade just mean "Yeah, y'all can just do whatever you want, no restrictions anymore".

They are not that similar.
1 refers to the circumstances leading up to committing the crime, 2 refers to how they are treated by the legal system. I am willing to accept that women are more likely to be victims of abuse, and therefore they are likely to commit crimes as a result of that abuse.

On the other hand, studies that I have seen in the past have always suggested that women are (generally) treated much more leniently then men by the justice system. If there are statistics to disprove that, or statistics to show that women who are abused fare worse than women who are not abused, I would be interested in seeing them.

There's a cousins Christmas party with Mr. T's extended family, in Calgary this year. Assuming none of the adults pick up the flu that the kids just got over. I know it will be fun and I'll have a good time, and yet a little corner of my mind is hoping I get the flu so I can stay home. Because if I'm being honest, my mental health is currently only pretty good for it being Christmastime, which is to say fair to middling. I'm not very good at this time of year.
