I laughed so hard I spit out my coffee. This is art. And 100% accurate from having to have suffered multiple AUSAs on HQDA staff.

I drove one at high speed on the autostrada as part of a carabinieri escorted convoy. It performed VERY well.

Googled my local VW dealership for shots and giggles and they are offering ID4s for over 7k below MSRP.

The wounded included one of the fools that caused immense damage to real people during the Afghan Evac by creating content instead of helping out Allies.

This is why we are skipping the hybrid phase. Seems like the worst of both worlds: limited EV range and all the maintenance of a regular car.

I would rather give up my car forever than fund the Putin's criminal regime.

Dead cat bounce. The world has changed and these selfish morons haven't gotten the memo yet. Prices are never coming back down, and once Buck and Patty from Morefield WVA realize they can have a vehicle that does not require any oil changes and gas stations, they will never go back.

This is pretty amazing. As amazing as Francis Scott Key being a racist and how the whole second stanza of the anthem is about "free men," specifically meaning white dudes. The more you know.

Journalism has gotten dangerous and expensive. It's easier to cut and paste someone else's work with your opinion. Most news came from wire services (AP, Reuters etc) but even they cut down. Podcasters and influencers don't have editorial boards or legal review and get paid by clicks not truth.

Trevor Noah recently made an excellent point. Truth sits behind a pay wall. You want honest reporting and analysis? Pull out your wallet. But misinformation and disinformation and downright lies? That's free. No pay wall. Any media expert wants to explain why that is?

Whether he does or not, extremists will splice it in with glorious music and images of jihadis in action. He will shout Alallahu Akbar, and enter anti-western mythology. Because we are dumb.

Just a hunch, maybe just maybe, we don't use cable TV as the preparatory path for an entire administration. Dunno if that has anything to do with it. We got exactly what 'we' voted for.

I watched the video of Saddam Hussein's execution. Few people were more clearly deserving of it, but my life is not better for having seen it, and I wish I had not. Watching anyone die that way is terrible, and it does not make us better.

Yup. He gets to become a martyr and inspire others. Like we have been at this thing for a quarter of a century, like someone pick up a fucking book or just ask your chat bot to tell you about Sayid Qutb and Salafism. JFC.

"You just killed your platoon. You won't amount to anything." Said the upperclassman who would soon take the 90s buy out and never did shit to the future Afghanistan CJSOTF task force commander. Usma cadet judgement was the original poasting is life.
