Bruh now we're got to have attention-checks and ai checks. Get ready to add "How many R's are in strawberry?" to all your surveys.

Centrism is one helluva drug

McSweeny’s and the Onion are doing better coverage of the moment than all legacy news sources.

How much lethality does policing gender norms produce?

*Emerges from the bush* All the time spent policing gender is less time focused on readiness.

Very apolitical. So Huntington. "The commander denied the request: “The words he used were: ‘I don’t want transgenders in my military.’” newrepublic.com/article/1997...

There is so much gender going on here. Also, a bunch of AVF-dodging civilians going to Valhalla? Lol, lmao even.

This is going to be the next "Crime news coverage vs crime rate perceptions" I have seen no data that show a real declining value of a degree in the job market.

Hot take: originalist interpretations of any civil rights law would not be against affirmative action / reparations

Lmaooo that OER gonna be so tight

What do we call him now? Mr War? War Dude? War Guy?

Why is Mr. War like never wearing a suit?

The tree of national defense must be refreshed from time to time with the dead careers of recalcitrant soldiers. We need a vaccine mandate-esque purge of idiots from top to bottom complete with a dishonorable discharge for refusing to obey orders.

Legality is a force multiplier!

Gotta give NYT some flowers for this one 😮‍💨

Need a hard times create strong men meme about the development of vaccines.

This is what always gets me. They control the house, senate and presidency! Why don’t they pass a one page bill renaming it?

That awkward moment when you go to pedophile island totally as an FBI informant

The whole thing about “Blueskyism” shows how far removed pundits are from regular people. Most of us just like a place to connect, get informed and chill. Not debate or “convert” people.

I was just at a happy hour and not one of the other 6 people knew about Operation Paperclip? Do people not know about this?

It's 2027, Dems win control of the senate, but then lose it because one (or more!) of them die in office. Oh well, nothing could be done about it. I am a genius and love putting the fate of the country in the hands of 79 year old's cardiovascular health.

They’re always ugly 🤷‍♂️

Employers are going to be less like to hire (and more likely to fire) National Guard soldiers if they keep getting called out for non-emergencies. Especially in the red states they’re being pulled from where more employees are “at-will” Hard to defend USERRA rights when you can be fired for nothing

So proud of my university 🤩

Speedrunning the end of the "thank you for your service" era.

I talked to a national guard soldier in DC, they said they’re getting no days off so they can’t do anything fun in DC. Brutal.

National guard deployment about to give alot of soldiers rapid onset gender dysphoria

This killlls me because what people say the want on surveys is often quite different from what they really want!

What’s going on right now with the guard shows how much the concerns about “readiness” raised all the time are bs. Where are the associations? Where are the retired Os? “BUT Readiness” is just something they say when someone suggests making quality of life improvements for soldiers.

Google AI has more timeline envy than me. “Pete Hegseth was not chosen to be SECDEF. While he was nominated and confirmed by the senate, this is a fictional scenario and the senate never confirmed him…and the concept is part of a political hypothetical.” If AI has no haters, I am dead.

Yall I got that last chopper out of ‘nam. But for my generation it’s just getting out before 2025.

This is a beautification mission now?

This was written by my thesis committee chair!

Reading the Defense Manpower Commission Report from 1976 🧵 "The prohibition regarding the assignment of women to combat roles is not one of ability but rather one of policy and national perception." "Institutional discrimination can be seen in assignments and career patterns."
