Remember when we didn't know what Lloyd Austin did day-to-day? In fact, his biggest scandal was getting cancer treatment without telling anyone. Good times.

there are parents just like you whose children are dying of a disease that has been ravaging humanity for a hundred thousand years, a disease we can treat, but Elon musk decided their lives were not worth the minuscule cost of treatment or prevention. that is who republicans like, it’s who they are

✈️ By the time war actually started, Germany was still leaning on older bombers while the “future fleet” was barely ready. ✈️ In Ep. 76, Dan Sharp explains shows how tech, ambition, and bad timing shaped what the Luftwaffe could actually do. Listen here: www.buzzsprout.com/2327200/epis...

Tim Curry as Dr. Petrov in The Hunt for Red October

#GDR #OTD 1961 - 65 years ago today, construction began on the Berlin Wall. It would stand for 28 years and created a border regime that claimed the lives of at least 140 people.

The overwhelming right wing sentiment is that COVID was an engineered bioweapon that was also harmless. Trump overreacted to it by shutting down the country, then engineered a drive to create a vaccine that was the real bioweapon that killed millions, and it's Joe Biden's fault.

I'd make a joke like Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom (1977, dir. Passolini) but it's not even elevated depravity. It's taking Animal House seriously as your moral lodestar. It's Judge Holden hosting Jackass. It's not even as cool or dangerous as any of those. It's just pathetic.

The Luddites loved technology. They owned looms at home and would ‘mod’ them to count threads. Their battle was against worker exploitation. The degradation of their rights, safety and wages. They were against a handful of rich businessmen owning the means of production. Sound familiar?

There's a perverse symbolism in the legacy of White racism sheltering under the bowers of all African Americans have done for this country while patiently waiting for the chance to go back to insisting we are a drain upon their society and that they never needed us at all.

That a government boxed in by its own timidity proved unable to address the deep economic challenges bequeathed by the GFC, Brexit, the pandemic, the wars was predictable enough - the unforgivable bit for me, however, is the endless pandering to the profoundly fascistic tendencies in our society.

A selection from NAM Rodger's book on British naval history in which the German naval leadership pursued a manly policy against all strategic sense.

After Wile E Coyote died, Road Runner ran on, as was his nature, but without purpose. Once he painted a tunnel on a rock face, but none hilariously tried to follow. He sought a fresh pursuer but found no one. Ten days after Coyote, he, too, went still.
