Not a SANE one among us. NO ONE with an ounce of sanity volunteers to be shot at. The true, genuine “warrior ethos” Hegseth brays about is actually the polar OPPOSITE of his bullshit performative machismo. The core of America’s military has ALWAYS been the non-conforming “weirdos.”

I was of that last American generation who was being trained up to fight World War III. Pete Hegseth is a fucking jackass and I’ll tell you why… Every one of my buddies in ROTC — male or female, gay or straight, whatever shade of black, brown, or alabaster we were — was a righteous FREAK.

You might be surprised to learn that I grew up in a military family, and once upon a time I was an ROTC cadet. Yep, this fem boi you follow actually crawled under barbed wire and trained to shoot M16s at imaginary “commies” in simulated Nicaraguan villages at Camp Pendleton in the 1980s.

This fascist dumbfuck just blew his chances at "redemption." That clip will play in his opponent's attack ads, should he try to run in 2028. I'm sorry there aren't any WWII vets left with the physical capacity to punch his teeth in.

I was making potato and leek soup and the recipe asked for five potatoes cubed. Even for potato soup, 125 potatoes seems a little excessive.

Historically, agriculture in Europe was done by farming it out to poor people. So "farming" became a synonym for agriculture. Kinda like how "contractor" has become a synonym for construction crew.

"Farmer" comes from Latin "firmus," signature or contract. As in "tax farmer" or "farming out a task." That's the actual meaning of farmer; it 100% means wealthy landlords, not the people who do the work.

That idiotic Trump propaganda ad is running on CBS Sunday Morning. Does his team really think it will change any minds? That is, in the way they intended? It will only appeal to the Kool-Aid drinkers, and piss off everyone else. Also, possibly impeachable offense.

like I suspect many of you on This Website, I think a core reason why I find Eliezer Yudkowsky and his rationalist and effective altruist satellites so intensely annoying is because I had a VERY similar “being a super weird, pretentious, hyper-literate kid” experience - I just, you know, grew up.
