olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Dude, this sounds like the electric vehicle equivalent of "man built car that runs on water." 181
olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Quite simply we don't use it that much. My wife and I have it on as background noise for maybe an hour in the evening, and that's really just a chill VOD from some streamers we follow. Well, that and @tastinghistory.bsky.social 010

olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 21/09/2026You know it's bad when a literal military coup has popular support. That's the sort of shit that is supposed to stay on the noncredible meme subs, not bleed into reality. 010

olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 19/08/2026I just thought that we were now talking about this. boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/48...boardgamegeek.comThe Campaign for North Africa: The Desert War 1940-43A meticulously detailed war simulation that takes more than 41 days of play time. 070
olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 18/08/2026One of these days I need to give HOI another shot. I keep getting overwhelmed by it, and I don't have the same love for it as I do Vicky that keeps me coming back despite being absolute dogshit at the game. 010
olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 18/08/2026Heh, I think this may be something too AF-centric of a joke. Around 2012ish the CMSAF said that morale was "pretty darn good." Spoiler alert: the AF was downsizing and a lot of people didn't know if they would be cut, so morale was quite the opposite. 010
olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 18/08/2026Are we taking bets on when someone in charge says morale is "Pretty darn good!" 100
olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 17/08/2026Really, they do more harm to left wing causes than anything else in the same way fascists do harm to right wing ones. I've become the liberal my parents warned me about just cause I feel people should have basic rights, and that the .gov should provide services to its citizens. 120
olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 17/08/2026At the risk of being that guy, this is where the whole political compass thing is actually useful for visualizing it. Tankies (I think) tend to want social equality, but do so through top-down force. Al la ye olde Soviets. Naturally this ends up with them at the top politically. So..authoritarians. 130
olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 17/08/20262/2 As such the policy became indistinguishable from the government to some. I was raised in this environment, and frankly didn't learn better until after both college and until well into my time with .mil. GOOD ed regarding political structures is almost non-existent unless you actively seek it. 020
olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 17/08/20261/2 Pretty much, yeah. Millennial's parents grew up with the Soviets being the authoritarian boogeyman. If you grew up in a conservative house you got "Nazi = bad," but it was because of the war and Holocaust, and nothing about what fascism /IS./ 131
olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 17/08/2026Unsurprising Trying to say this without angering the Bsky hivemind, but if you get enough leftists in a room, and you'll find tankies. 140
olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 10/08/2026Ya know, that's fair. Temperate regions, you wanna know it's fresh. 000
olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 09/08/2026I couldn't see doing it in the dorm kitchen, but I could easily have seen finding a sympathetic organization just off campus that would help you field dress some roadkill that you made. I'm sure as hell not picking up a carcass that I don't know how long it's been dead for though. 110
olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 07/08/2026I am glad that EVE exists in this world, for the stories that come out of it are glorious. And while I regret studying WoW's econ for my senior research, I'm glad that it was my addiction for a few years instead of EVE. Even if EVE would have had the better data I think. 000
olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 01/08/2026So, are we taking bets on when they refile them as misdemeanor charges 000
olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 23/07/2026That's the neat part about war. The other guy gets a say too. 000
olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 23/07/2026Since this is in reply to a Clausewitz themed account, let's keep it on theme. "War is politics by other means." What are the political goals of this war? What are we trying to accomplish in the first place? Because all I have seen is essentially a desire for destruction and death. 130
olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 01/07/2026I actually didn't know about that second part. I read the manifesto in HS, and didn't get the appeal. Then going to college for economics rather sealed the camp I put Marx into. 000
olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 01/07/2026This comment is making me think I need to reread Marx, regardless of how much it's going to make me be more grumpy than normal. 1141
olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 01/07/2026I would argue we are less "wired for it" and more that it is a natural extension of small group dynamics. It's just that when scaled up, well I think @bretdevereaux.bsky.social most recent blog posts explain some of the failures of scaling it. 0110
olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 16/06/2026My first interaction was the CK3 article on legitimacy building and rulership somehow popping up in my Google feed. Fell in love with the blog and have read almost the entire backlog. Favorites have to be the series on strategic deterrence and of course, "what is a tank?" 050
olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 16/06/2026I keep citric and malic acids around to make lemon/lime "juice" for cocktails. Cheaper, longer lasting, and no having to worry if your lime doesn't have enough juice for your daiquiri. 020
olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 04/06/2026Has anyone tried posting, at length, interactions between Achilles and Patroclus to these people? Cause even 7th grade me saw that as a VERY homoerotic relationship. 020
olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 31/05/2026So we've got a modern champion if tzeentch in Kanye, nurgle in RFK, and I'm gonna say khorne in hegseth. Who's our slaanesh champion? 310
olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 30/05/2026I guess it has been a couple weeks since I tried for an unseeded naninf. 010
olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 10/04/2026I dig it. While I think reddit overblows it, I do think her design had been tending towards overly busty lately. Ever since you introduced her, her design has been sexual. I think your stuff from late last year was a good middle ground. 120
olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 19/03/2026And the only thing that has changed since then is we have learned the anonymity is actually optional. 070
olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 17/03/2026Is FMA science fiction? I don't really think so. Code Geass has some solid contenders though, and while I'm not familiar with it, I'm sure Gundam can put up some good candidates. Still think Big E gets it for what it caused though. 121

olsham.bsky.social @olsham.bsky.social · 04/03/2026Simple, we just need to have Paradox games and Terra Invicta incorporated into the US curriculum. It worked for me! Even if regions w/in India and China are still a bit nebulous to me. 1131
