So apparently, Nancy was the throat GOAT of Hollywood.

The Dollop podcast did a two episode special on Ronald Reagan's disastrous presidency and how his policies are still damaging America to this day. They went into depth on the Nancy stories too. It's a good listen.

In 1994, following the collpse of the USSR and through an accident of fate, the newly independent country of Ukraine found itself in possession of the world’s third largest nuclear arsenal.
At the insistence of the two strongest powers in the world — Russia and the United States — Ukraine agreed to give up their nukes in exchange for a "perpetual guarantees of sovereignty and territorial integrity.

US war atrocities get ZERO play in our history books and popular media for some reason

Link is to the website of Waseda University's library which has the book scanned. It was written by Kanagaki Robun and illustrated by Utagawa Yoshitora
The title of the book is 童絵解萬国噺 and according to its foreword, it was based on the contents of two other books, 海国図志 and 亜墨利加一統志
Explanations of the pages:
The story actually starts in 7, 3-6 are coloured illustrations of various parts of the story serving as a preview for the content.
3: John Adams fighting a giant snake
4: Page on the right depicts "Father of the Country Washington" and "The Divine Celestial Woman America" (One of the books this was derived from had an illustration of the 1804 American dollar with Liberty on one side and the eagle on the other, Liberty might have inspired the illustration while the eagle went into the Adams stuff further down)
5: Washington's parents fighting a demon along the way to America
6: George Washington fighting the evil English bureaucrat "Asura" to save his wife "Kareru".
Story starts here:
7: "Colon" (Columbus) asks queen Isabella for a ship to find a new continent
8: Columbus has trouble finding the continent and faces a mutiny (the people around him are supposed to be pointing flintlock pistols at him), but he persuades them to stand down by revealing that he has thousand-li eyes and saw the new continent with them
10: Columbus arriving in Haiti
11: George Washington's future parents "Merican Washington" and "Harina Washington", servants to the queen of England. Merican is a descendant of Americus, the man who discovered South America.
12-14: Washington's parents break "the jewel of nocturnal light", a treasure very important to the queen, and are exiled to America as punishment. They were actually framed by the evil retainer "Furore" who was jealous of Merican.
15: Washington's parents fight a demon-man from "Shimane of Harumata" along the way
17: George Washington is born in America and is shown here as a child with his parents
18-19: George Washington at age 18 defeats a two-headed demon that was troubling some villagers
20-21: On the way home from defeating the demon Washington sees a lady "Kareru" being assaulted by bandits and rescues her.
22: Washington is accosted by a mysterious masked man whom he fights.
23: It turns out that the masked men is Kareru's brother, Ben Franklin. After their fight Franklin now recognises Washington as a real tough man and they take an oath of fraternity to be sworn brothers
25-30: The Franklins' father, "Franboles" shows up looking for them, hears the story, and invites Washington to their home where they chat.
31-32: Meanwhile, John Adams is at a hanami with his old mother when all of a sudden his mother is swallowed by a giant snake
33: Adams climbs a mountain to consult a [sennyo](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xian_(Taoism) on how to save his mother
34: The sennyo gives him "the bough of Woilefbom" (a magic stick) that lets him summon a giant magic eagle that will help him save his mother
35: Adams kills the snake with the eagle's help and saves his mother (I've heard that this entire episode was lifted from the Chinese classic Water Margin but I'm not familiar enough with it to tell)
37: Adams meets Franklin
38: Ben Franklin shows Adams his skills at using a cannon to blow up a rock that is very far away
40: Franklin tells Adams that Washington beat a tiger to death with his bare hands once, and Adams is very impressed and wants to meet Washington
The story ends with them gathering in Virginia with a to be continued, but it seems the book was unpopular and never got a sequel.

Pay decrease WHILE having a severe trucker shortage. And the way the large trucking companies have you by your balls to begin with so you can get a foot in the door is something to discuss as well.
Can you really call yourself a trucker if you're not hooked for life on account of your truck payments tho?
Whew, some family just rocked up at a restoration shop with a photo album full of pictures from the rape of Nanking.
