If Hegs was half as much of a badass as he tries to make it sound, he wouldn't give a fuck what the fake news media says about him one way or the other. Shut up and open strait Pete.

"We didn't want a whole war, we were just gonna MOP their nuclear sites after we spent a week hitting their IADS and missile facilities with several hundred SOWs and then they'd just shrug and do nothing" is what a whole bunch of think tankers argued for, doesn't mean it was logical

"Men who are determined to live the most frictionless lives possible" resonates. When people talk of a "simple" life, that is often what they mean.

I read a lot for work, but avoid as much of the fictional work about the war as possible. I don't need Hollywood to tell me what I experienced. On the other hand, I do enjoy movies and novels about the Vietnam War.

I'm never going to understand how university administrators are made aware of violent crimes on campus and that they can legally not report it to the cops and instead hold their in house kangaroo court that just rubber stamps the crime. They should be held liable for this shit.

My daughter wanted to see the Endgame re-release so we sucked it up through the rain and went to the theater. I spent 50 dollars on soda, pretzel bites, M&Ms, and a hotdog. Movie was good.

I’m sorry, what? This piece was not a joint publication/ reporting job (as some are). It was @propublica’s alone and the Times followed with a summary. This is so indicative of NYT. If they don’t ignore proper credit, they just go for stolen valor.

This is the problem with American politics at large. People go to politics looking for affirmation that politics won't and can't give them. Go to church if that's what you're after.

It’s really stunning how the USA has so swiftly shifted from being one of the most techno-optimistic and tech-industry-loving countries on earth, to a country where most people seem to assume - not incorrectly, at least in many cases - that tech is out to get them.

"RKF took money earmarked to provide health care for Black infants and spent it on his personal security detail" is a ludicrous headline. Comic book villainy.

Finished this one. Definitely worth checking out. Could have used a @mikeblack114.bsky.social rant, but it is a great overview about venture capital's attempt to become defense primes and achieve recession proof revenue.
