Kilts & Klingons @kiltsandklingons.bsky.social · 17/07/2026Of course they let that asshole become a 35M. We were starting to see a serious downturn in quality of HUMINT soldiers as early as 2006, and I'm not sure it got better until at least 2014. These dickheads made it incredibly difficult to build any kind of credibility with supported commands. 010
Kilts & Klingons @kiltsandklingons.bsky.social · 24/06/2026I recycled some jeans at a store called Madewell today and they gave me these vouchers for $20 off a new pair of theirs. All of theirs are priced at $140+, which is a little outside the budget of a federal employee's single-income family. We will literally never use these. Hopefully someone will. 120

Blue states FUND red states as red states say that it is BLUE STATES that live off others. Blue states adhere to the CONSTITUTION as red states CLAIM to love it but undermine it at every turn.

Kilts & Klingons @kiltsandklingons.bsky.social · 02/01/2026I offer a tool to help parse these kinds of conflicts in judgment: "It's never just one thing." Meaning you shouldn't make a judgment based on one piece of information, but should look for a pattern to determine your perception. A PhD is a good start, but is not the end-all indicator of expertise. 100
