I think I heard this kerfluffle, I think it was a few blocks away about 10-11PM last weekend with a lot of flashing lights and some yelling.
So that, THEN a road trip to FL mixed in with whatever time off I can get from work. I want a chunk for FL. Two weeks at least maybe.
Edit: Actually just picking up the truck will be a bit of a trip. I'm buying from Granger in Iowa. They're legit, don't really have much overhead, sell below invoice and while you wait for your build if any MFG discounts appear they tack that on. Strictly a volume company that will pick you up at the airport:

I'm set to buy a new car next month, probably a Forester or Outback.
Men and women think differently, and that's due to biology, not culture. Evolution selected for bigger, more analytical males who can defend territory and build things. On the other hand, women were selected to be more nurturing and to make sure all the children got fed and treated equally. Without both sides, we die out. Currently, the government in both the US and Canada is essentially female, resulting in lots of problems, such as an overly hysterical reaction to a relatively weak virus, and support for open borders. Call me sexist, but biology is reality.
This cycle is most pronounced in power corridors like Washington, D.C., where political authority and lapdog journalists meet, and few women of the preferred political stripes are ever confronted with real pushback. Anger and tears have always supplanted real arguments and debate.
Few men or women have the courage to just let the tantrum run its course and give the unhinged woman a strong NO or, better yet, tell her it’s time to put her childish tactics away and make a real argument, sans tears or terror. Not only have these outbursts benefited angry women by giving them what they want, but they know everyone fears them. A woman can warn those around her with a look, a raised eyebrow, or a curt turn on the heel, putting everyone on notice.
That is, until now.
Like a sliver of light at dawn or a violin’s first notes in a symphony, at long last, the old tactics are being neutralized. The once-powerful raging faces of Karens — and now Margarets — can no longer command the same effect. Men have finally decided they have had enough and are just not taking it anymore.
The confirmation hearings for several of President Trump’s Cabinet picks have provided evidence that the era of shrieking women is coming to an end. Viral memes show woman after woman in politics and the media trying to roll out the tired, 50-year-old vitriol, and instead of taking the bait, or looking like a deer in the headlights, men are riding through it unfazed or even using it to score points of their own.
Both Sens. Kirsten Gillibrand and Elizabeth Warren directed their venom against Pete Hegseth in his hearing to become secretary of defense, with Gillibrand saying he had made hurtful and mean comments. “You will have to change the way you see women to do this job, and I don’t know if you are capable of that,” she added. Warren picked up the same thread, cutting off the nominee’s response about lowered standards for women with, “Mr. Hegseth, let’s just stop! Let’s just stop! Let’s just stop right there!” She sounded like a higher-octane version of Kamala Harris’ “I’m speaking” schtick from the 2020 vice-presidential debate — that is, until Hegseth eventually made Warren look like a fool with a calm, cool, and collected correction about not being a general.
J.D. Vance also deftly handled his first interview as vice president on CBS’s “Face the Nation” with Margaret Brennan. Vance disarmed Brennan repeatedly but left a real mark when she suggested that an allegedly properly vetted Afghan, who planned a terrorist attack, may have been radicalized after he arrived in the U.S. “I don’t really care, Margaret. I don’t want that person in my country, and I think most Americans agree with me.”
