My love language is repeated screenings of X2

Me: *Something about military laser weapons* My wife:

More than a month later and the British Army has no fucking idea?

Is the cure for male loneliness having slow motion gun fights with your friends? youtu.be/7sqSQ5Vu8vM?...

People should be in jail for this

I can't tell if the enshittification of the internet writ large is a "dead internet" or "gray goo" scenario

I am so tired

If I were an enterprising science or technology editor I would assign a writer to revisit Vannevar Bush's "As We May Think" 80 years later amid the rise of AI www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc...

The best part of leaving media was breaking free from the shackles of Chartbeat

I started college 20 years ago this week 🙃

Isn't this the plot of 'Captain America: Winter Soldier'? defensescoop.com/2025/09/10/g...

I'm sorry, but if you're Rolling Stone and you're publishing shit like "best humidifiers" that has nothing to do with your core editorial value prop for measly affiliate revenue then you deserve to have this shit happen to you

Never miss an opportunity to shut the fuck up

NEW: China quietly deployed laser weapons across Beijing to watch for drone attacks on its massive military parade in last week www.laserwars.net/p/china-lase...

I haven't worked at a media organization in six months yet US Navy public affairs continues to respond to my inquiries about shipboard laser weapons 👀 Just another reason you should subscribe to Laser Wars: laserwars.net

The wanton destruction of the @militarydotcom.bsky.social newsroom by Canadian media sweatshop Valnet is a complete and utter tragedy

This remains one of my best and favorite pieces of journalism I've ever produced Rescuing the Lost Art of 9/11 www.thedailybeast.com/rescuing-the...

I found the perfect photo for an upcoming Laser Wars post ... ... but it's only available in print form from an Italian an e-commerce platform for vintage and antique paper collectibles for 32 euros

My favorite running joke is that there's a fourth Foer brother (Franklin, Jonathan Safran, and Joshua) named Hobart Foer who the family only calls on during literary crises so they can solve them as ... (•_•) ( •_•)>⌐■-■ (⌐■_■) ... The Fantastic Foer

Every time I learn a friend is expecting a child, I order them the same thing: the best children's book in the history of children's books

Who is doing the best reporting on crypto and digital assets treasuries right now?

This isn't correct. The Department of War, for nearly 150 years, was just the Army. There was no unified military cabinet level post overseeing both the Army and Navy until DOD. That umbrella was created in 1947. The Dept of war became the departments of the Army and Air Force.

I liked the War on Drugs better when it was fought with PSAs not GBUs

Get in loser, we’re going to 1,000 laserwars.net

I've said it once and I'll say it again: the way the Pentagon repurposes airstrike footage as anti-terror propaganda is disgusting psmag.com/social-justi...

Spoke with The Telegraph about Chinese laser weapons www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2...

My dog has a pinched nerve and was prescribed *bedrest and no stairs* for a month so now I'm just carrying here everywhere like the goddamned princess she is
