I gotta say this war has led me to believe that 95% of military spending in the US just goes to defense contractor shareholders and nothing else. Like what do you mean the US just decommissioned its only mine defusing boats in the gulf and there’s no replacements?

Schatz: We don’t know for sure, but the likely bombing of an elementary school with one of our Tomahawk missiles is not a one-off mistake. It is the result of a change in policy so that the United States has way looser rules of engagement β€” way more tolerance for civilian harm.

One particular outcome of this war is that U.S. allies, partners and enemies will have a much more concrete picture of U.S. vulnerabilities. Obviously the U.S. hasn’t mobilized forces for major sustained combat, but even this snapshot will be consequential.

It is kinda funny the navy is just refusing to do what is ostensibly one of its core functions

Yesterday I filmed several baby birds walking across a street directly at my camera and asked Bluesky to suggest music

Some even dubbed music over the original clip.

This is how abusers talk. On par for Trumputin. He only helps those who gravel at his feet or pay him money. Once that stops, he degrades you in public.
