I believe commercial pilots should be able to 'meow' or 'woof' every once and again.

both the president and literally everyone else understand any statement of a moral principle -- any moral principal -- as a denunciation

I've harped on congressional war powers for a long time and we do need to fix all that, but threatening to invade Greenland while ranting at Norway about the Nobel Peace Prize and imposing trade sanctions on NATO is more the kind of thing you can only fix by not having a literally insane president.

This is a key lesson of Clausewitz: war is the use of force to gain some kind of political objective. Strategy is the understanding of how your use of force is to actually get you what you want. War without strategy is sheer stupidity.

The American people electing Trump after he staged a coup attempt 5 years ago was a nail in the coffin of our democracy. You can rationalize it all you want - But inflation! But wokeness! - but ultimately it was a societal suicide attempt and probably the dumbest collective voting decision ever made

They can't even appoint a US Attorney the correct way. What makes you think their war in Venezuela is going to go well? They won't even commit to taking care of our vets now, do you think they will take care of the broken minds and bodies that will return? Service members will die needlessly.

Having spent some time underwater, I feel qualified to say that submarines are perhaps ungentlemanly and most definitely infernal machines!

I have a feeling that @hoosierhomer.bsky.social is observing this night as it should be -- mourning the loss of the USS Reuben James on this very evening back in '41.

Its insane that American politics now more or less revolves around infrequently passing a single comically large overstuffed money bill instead of like... normal legislation

If you want to dress well this fall, imagine yourself as Big Jim Collie, a Scottish crofter in the 1970s who lived alone in a bothy and rode a rickety old bicycle through the Lairig Ghru, the highest mountain pass in the highest mountain range in Britain, while sustaining himself on a bit of dram.

Here's Philly rap legend Freeway canvassing with LeVar Burton singing the Reading Rainbow theme. You can see how much it touched Burton. National media loves to hate Philly because of the Eagles fans from the Northeast, but fuck all that noise Philly is the best.
