"Oh do you need a machine to fuck your wife too" posting but it's about vibrators

remember this important message this Christmas

no love lost for ben sasse, but i think the alternate universe where he decided to actually try to be a good leader is a little depressing compared to the one where he chose the path of least resistance and greatest perks, because he had the chops to be a much better and smarter leader than he was

Cook safe this holiday season! For the ham!

It is very ironic that I was fooling around with LDraw this weekend.

these guys kicked my ass in prophecy of pendor

Getting in on this matriarchical gynocracy business.

"I think of Ovid’s Pygmalion: Here was a fool who sculpted a woman because he hated actual women. Bronze Age Pervert, the enemy of actual men, likewise prefers a statue." www.liberalcurrents.com/reviewer-jud...

Well, that settles it. Signing up with Xiombarg of the swords.

"if all else fails, go bother one of the local apex predators and maybe they’ll fix the problem for no reason"

the one thing missing from Warhammer 40K is a really good excuse to have ridiculous factions interact socially, especially in the tabletop gaming. A big advantage of the old Rogue Trader implied setting was that it was somewhere space marines and orks clearly sometimes got drinks together.

Where we send you if we catch you inferring future events on the basis of resemblance to past occurrences. Or, at least, where we've sent people so far.

Retired 27-year FBI agent Brian Carroll, who specialized in managing exactly the type of cases like the Brown University shooting, explains all the ways in which Kash Patel just ain't it. Really great inside analysis: prospect.org/2025/12/23/k...

Scoop: The lone employee behind CISA's Pre-Ransomware Notification Initiative resigned on Friday rather than take a forced reassignment to FEMA. CISA says PRNI will continue, but sources said David Stern's loss will be a major setback for it. My story: www.cybersecuritydive.com/news/cisa-ra...

*street fighter announcer voice* Da Strap God VERSUS Lydia Tár

Granted if I really had a time machine and could talk to Fisher it would be to explain the concept of transness to her and provide her with hormones. Not sure what that changes via butterfly effect but I'm sure it'll be fine.

Going back in time to tell Jacky Fisher this and all he wants to know is how fast and how lightly armored they are and when I admit they can go above 30 knots and have no metal armor at all he dies of sheer joy.

Odds we can get Donnie to demand that the crew of the USS "Defiant" put on two daily performances of HMS Pinafore?

Its great that we have a make a wish program that gives America's specialist boy his very own H-44 class

Somewhere Admiral von Tirpitz is like “finally.”

Even the German Navy- the German Navy!- has a better plan for future surface vessels. www.twz.com/air/germany-...

The Turkish Navy building amphibs to use as unmanned systems platforms instead of unarmed bargain frigates.

The Japanese Maritime Self-Defense force working on railguns instead of modular gold-plated hulls.

honestly this and F-47 are genuinely some of the most insulting and depraved moves by a service in our history

"The new ships will replace the Navy’s next-generation DDG(X) program," Admiral Sims... I don't feel so good...

Make Nearer my god to thee the new navy song

I see the design for the "battleship" and about an hour later I'm throwing up and nauseous. Coincidence?

save money on anchors

New supercarriers. Lasers and LRHW and BLCM-N and railguns all on a 30,000-ton stretched Zumwalt built in half the time the original took. Repainting Coast Guard cutters and calling them frigates. Imagine how much effort will be spent on this bullshit.

The memorial to Force Z quite literally slightly later in the day of its public unveiling back in 2023. If it was intentionally designed to reflect the spot offshore where HMS Prince of Wales and HMS Repulse were sunk, it still is an absolute pain to photograph

Thinking about the Lupin the Third Part 2 episode where Lupin and the gang escape from Nazis in a makeshift hot-air balloon they've painted a shitty Hitler on the side of, meaning the Nazis are forbidden from shooting it down.

If you want the citation, Jesus sends people he's healed of "leprosy" go to the Temple to follow the protocols for being cleared of tzaarath as noted in... Leviticus

And they are only building 2. Presumably they'll start work on a third and then later convert her hull hastily to a carrier.

I *said* it was gonna be Big Zumwalt.

The United States Navy: "In the face of adversity, never try. Just quit."

...I think I need to play RTW3 for a while. Fume. Add MSSM launchers while snarling angrily.

Got Korean BBQ this weekend. :3

Relatedly, I saw this, about an Anduril product that's a rectangular torpedo, while on a Wikipedia ramble through their torpedo articles (don't judge) and I immediately muttered "What?"" followed by "Am I reading that right?" followed by "And does it give admirals blowjobs too?"

"Trump-class battleship". The President wants you to know he's a very big boy and he doesn't need a sippy cup or a bib at all.

but have you considered:

this isn't a list of editorial suggestions or improvements, this is a list of derailers intended to kill the story. i doubt they ever air it. the whole thing is also deeply offensive to the veteran investigative reporters who know how to do this job that bari weiss has absolutely no experience in.

Shame that LRHW isn't all that phallic and can't serve as President Deflating Balloon's idealized strap-on. Maybe they can do something with mockups.

Honestly, if the Navy actually is letting Trump have input in the design, I have no idea what they're gonna do for the big guns his childlike pudding brain demands. AGS is 6", the 8"/55 Mk71 was canceled 50 years ago, and we can't build more 16"/45s or 12"/50 guns or turrets on a whim...

6 AGS turrets, laid out like a German dreadnought, no ammunition procurement budget, President Fluids throws a fit about VLS cells being gay in 2027 and demands twin-arm launchers for NSM.

Will Smith tried to start one but everybody got mad at him

O ship Navy by 2040 let's go

Betting this will be Bigger Zumwalt. Sorry, the *Golden Gold*-class (BBG-47 thru -47) of guided missile big battleful beautyships.
