Everything is computer Everybody transgender Too much liquid into that baby

This is wilder than I expected, she’s like the definition of a briefcase carrier, her qualifications seem to be primarily being liked by her former bosses one of which happens to be Kristi Noem.

“No officer I certainly was not threatening this fine business owner with physical violence if they didn’t pay me and mine protection money, we was just uh having a discussion on…Kierkegaard’s paradox of choice”

My biggest error of 2024 was deciding to get into a new hobby (flying drones) that is heavily dependent on imports from China. DJI is withdrawing from the U.S. FPV market increasing demand for other brands and prices have gone up commensurate with the tariffs making it expensive to get started.

I’m in my mid 30s and Climate is *THE* defining issue of my generation and younger whether people realize it or not. Climate is already shaping every single issue around us and will continue to do so for the rest of my life and well past my death. We’ve ignored this at our own peril.

A major part of our current moment in the U.S. is the failure of the U.S. Congress to pass durable law to protect its citizens, instead for decades it’s passed off its responsibilities to the Judicial and Executive branches which is now coming to bite us all in the collective ass.

FYI ICE agents and other tactical cops in in Vans is cult of the operator bull shit.

A Priest getting bear sprayed by a wannabe goonerator in a gas mask multicam and a pair of Vans is an image for the era.

when people ask you what the tenets of Sharonismo are, tell them

This view of J.P. Crawford's grand slam 😍 #SundayNightBaseball

I still maintain that an A-1 Skyraider was more appropriate to that fight than F/A-18s.

don't make me tap the sign

Also just as a reminder/history lesson, the A-10 was designed on the basis of a Vietnam threat environment: you could fly under the SAMs and could armor your way out of AAA SA-6s and ZSU-23s in the Yom Kippur War a few years later showed how this was now an obsolete concept

So google maps updated some satellite footage, here’s one single Ukrainian village. One out of thousands

I actually don't think it's just the British hard left on X. There's a lot of American hard leftists that basically view this place as essentially the Taiwan for Bidenists

"Pat, why do you carry that ridiculous 600mm lens on long hikes?" Buddy, I can see mountains reflected in the eyes of a trailside pika.

Trump likes to talk but is squeamish and has consistently shown an unwillingness to put new non-SOF troops on the ground in direct danger overseas. We’ll bomb Kabul Interntional Airport or airstrike something in the vicinity to show were tough, declare victory and move on to the next crisis.

NEW: Air Force jets are doing ICE flights to Africa with transponders turned off, making them nearly un-trackable. This includes the third-country removal to Ghana and another secret flight. We figured out where it landed. From me for @rollingstone.com: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Oh shit oh fuck the xenomorphs have Adidas now

“Law gives us the rules; memory of violence gives us the will to use them” is incredibly revealing to how InfantryDork views the world. it shows that: 1. He’s driven by grievance and fear 2. The lobotomy most receive upon promotion to Major was likely given to him while still enlisted.

its easier to stay motivated to exercise when you realize that the most important thing you are taking care of is your brain rather than your muscles

Whatever leverage is in veteran voices, whatever that coin is worth , spend it here If we ignore the people who tell our stories getting bullied then “veteran” as an idea is bullshit whatever “veteran” is, it has to mean fighting for your friends They wouldnt stand silent if it happened to us

the hysteria has gone off the rails so far that the average american thinks 1 in 5 people are transgender. pure absolute insanity that is driving the current lavender scare

Me and the boys experiencing CFIT at 150 knots because the Tesla Cyberhawk‘s optics (radar is too expensive) was fooled by a fake skyline that the Taliban painted onto a mountainside

> russian MiG31 entered Estonian airspace

I guess it’s woke to believe in safety these days…

One of the quirks of being into guns in 2025 is the random YouTube video that auto plays features a guy who ends his videos with several minutes of bible verse analysis after talking about a civilianized sub machine gun.

Reinvading Afghanistan so we can get a better deal on BAF from the Taliban lmao www.cnn.com/2025/09/18/p...

The Third Reich didn't last 1,000 years. Pinochet was ousted with a referendum. And the US isn't exactly dealing with the smartest, most competent fascists. Those of you insisting that 2025 is forever need to read a book, touch grass, go to therapy, anything other than trying to make others quit.

generally speaking, and with the glaring exception of november 2024, the more directly democratic an institution has been, the better it has checked Trump (eg grand and petit juries); the more elite and insular, the less effective (the Senate, the Supreme Court, big business)

We could have been providing military aid to Ukraine. We could have been building our partnerships in the Pacific. We could have strengthened Europe’s defense industrial base. We could have helped build state capacity in South America. What a fucking disaster this has all been.

great news! you're not actually seeing karl rove, john yoo, and david frum criticize the administration's lawlessness more stridently than dem leadership. you, reader, were infected with rabies by a brown bat 36 hours ago and this is all just the virus working its way through your nervous system

So I guess the Dodgers bullpen is blowing it after the opener shut down the opposing team…again.

The follow-up post is the best part.

Robert Redford playing a gentle incarnation of death, coming for a frightened old woman in The Twilight Zone episode "Nothing in the Dark" (1962). An extraordinary performance then, terribly bittersweet today

The permission structure for violence between Americans is actively being created and fomented by the sitting President and the people around him.

the right has spent decades claiming the mantle of free speech for themselves to great effect and it's time for the left to take a turn this is the united states of america and you should be free to express political opinions without being hounded out of society by a government-fueled hate mob

The best 26 seconds of the film is when Josh brolins character states near the end this is a public health problem, not a political violence problem, even after doing a bunch of political violence

Well I guess I’m taking a break from reading military theory for a little bit.

“Using Inferior online products over superior offline opportunies” sums up the source of so many ills in our society right now and we’re all guilty of it too a certain extent.

A totally serious commitment and not at all extended in only one direction.

"I just want to say, go birds, fuck ICE and free Palestine," "Hacks" star Hannah Einbinder at the #Emmys

Well, I didn’t think Stephen Miller played with dolls before now but now im convinced he does and it’s a core part of my politics. www.thedailybeast.com/white-house-...

maximum lethality, not tepid legality violent effect, not politically correct being sad about kirk, not posting with smirk

hundreds of millions of dollars vaporized from the georgia economy because a bunch of good ol’ boys who would have been too racist for the 1990s wanted to impress kristi noem

Nothing ever happens…and then all at once

ICE threw me and other protestors to the ground on Friday because we dared to stand up for our neighbors. I’m okay, but our communities aren’t. We can't afford apathy or inaction from our leaders right now. Abolishing ICE is a moral necessity.

I think this point is far more important than we realize. The fact that we consume completely different media showing us completely different things is a huge driver of division.
