Wait, there's accounts that present as members of oppressed groups spreading wrecker propaganda on Bsky? I've never seen such a thing before.

Ah, classic 80/20 problem, where 80% of Christians believe in the 20% of the Bible that can be bent to their interests.

We talking "the Bible went through a few generations of multilingual multicultural games of Telephone before it was written down" or "Jesus was a hook-nosed olive-skinned long-haired freak" or just "the sin of Sodom was not welcoming immigrants"?

Bad news: we now have only 4 of those, and they're stationed on the other side of the planet.
Good news: there may be *almost* 3 LCS-based replacements stationed in the Persian Gulf, and they can't operate more than 30 days without breaking down.

LCS as in...?
"...the GAO was critical of the LCS's ability to complete a navy requirement of 30 consecutive days underway without a critical failure of one or more essential subsystems."

Walz never stopped BTW. Media just stopped reporting it and object permanence took its course.

For anyone thinking we can just drop in some commandos and secure the uranium: no, no we can't.

I don't know why, but it greatly improved my mood to read a tiny bit of Canadian news about Canadians Canada-ing with other Canadians to great success.

Reminds me of when they dropped pallets of Franklins into Kabul, but no other denominations. For a little while, everything cost $100. AK-47? $100. Cup of coffee? $100.
