A carrier in a hostile South China Sea is a coffin.

Joshua, this is Mary with Rentals America. Do you have time to talk?

I see we’ve been to the same IWW meetings.

This is what happens when shit like rent (and fake rent that homeowners “pay” themselves) is included in the GDP and rent skyrockets.

innovation in weapons and other dangerous fields

Once upon a time, before finance capital took over, sure I guess. But, just look at hypersonic missiles. Every attempt by Lockheed-Martin to launch one blows up on the launch pad, and China keeps one-upping themselves in that space.

I’m a regular listener of the site’s official podcast

EDIT: This is the report released in 2023, not the one covering 2023 I guess.

But did they get the semen in time??!

I hope it works. Herding cats at IWW meetings is getting old.

The only time in history someone in the crackersphere has posted about doing a general strike that wasn’t cringe is when Sean Fain, president of the UAW, called for one in 2028. Everyone else is just posting.

Their “AI” shit is just their “Smart” tools rebranded and it annoys me. Like, the Smart Clone was a cool tool, and their Content Aware stuff was fun, but calling it AI is annoying.

They are prepping for the battle they want to have, not the battle that they will have

American wargaming in a nutshell. See: Millennium Challenge.

VAXXED?

Just absolutely the worst pronunciations. I guess AI has perfected the American YouTube voice.

It was overrated IMO

Eh, from a technical perspective, missile and gun based missile defense is not only possible, but feasible. However, from a logistics perspective it’s a waste of time, money, material, resources, research, etc, until an actual functioning laser-based missile defense exists which is at least two decades away IMO. When offensive missiles were as or more expensive than defensive systems, like the 1980’s, missile defense was very plausible, but the paradigm has shifted and the generals and admirals and politicians can’t figure that out.

I didn’t say “inform the world that they’re sending,” I said “inform the world what they’re sending.” Bypassing congress with the national security bullshit means they don’t have to say, “Yeah, we’re giving them white phosphorous and cluster bombs to commit war crimes.”

The Germans won’t do shit to stop AfD, and then, when they win big in September, they’ll be shocked. But god forbid someone wants communism.

Biden doesn’t have to bypass Congress to get Israel aid. Who would vote against it? The evangelical cultists of the republican party would do anything to bring about their apocalyptic vision of the second coming and no democrat would vote against it. They’re bypassing congress so they don’t have to inform the world what they’re sending to arm the genocide machine.
