my dad used to tell me about the time he got his roommate into PCP. the roommate bellowed I WANT SOME PUSSY and began vigorously fucking the sofa. possibly the only time a Scared Straight-type story has ever worked because i did not want anyone to be able to tell an anecdote like that about me

@vietthanhnguyen.bsky.social here’s a question that’s honestly 6 years in the making, one I’m literally going to write my American literature dissertation on- How do I, as a white man interested in soldier stories, write a story about the Vietnam War? Can I? *Should* I?

@nymphomachy.meangirls.online out of idle curiousity, were you JTAC? I know that you were Air Force generally

@redbardiscool.bsky.social with the retrospect of time, do you still stand by the vinesauce allegations?

Doing war crimes is bad but have you considered that the people bombing schools really need to collect their pension?

This reminds me of the whole "i dont support the war, I support the soldiers" shit. Maybe you shouldn't!

@vermontgmg.bsky.social if Trump launches a tactical nuke at Iran, would that cause other nations to launch their nukes? Want to know how much time I have to live if that happens

@ashlikeadragon.bsky.social have you played the Kurohyou games?

The movement to remove voice actor who has admitted to sexual assault has Yakuza fans at their breaking point: aftermath.site/yakuza-kiwami-...

The US cutting off oil to Cuba is truly one of the most depraved acts it is possible to imagine. Hospitals will close, food production will collapse, people will starve. It is urgent for US citizens, and every sane person, to oppose this barbarism with all their might.

Lovely article by @platanoranger.bsky.social. Perversely, this is what compels me about Battlefield, why 1 worked so well as a WWI game: It is an unflinching, honest depiction of the apocalypse caused by war and conflict, a- well- War Tape of where we were, where we are, and where we’re all headed.

Excellent work of yuri, really enjoyed the combination of self-deprecation (Pala essentially being Ash if she worked for the WTO), apocalyptic anxieties about the future, and a sense of visceral, deeply personal horror about abandoning love for the state. 10/10 would headcanon as HL1.5 again 👍
