A left-wing mob of cybernetically enhanced coyotes into all manner of ill shit.

Actually, it's just one retired (emphasis on tired) squid with a serious phobia related to random wires sticking out of the ground and a love of flying and airplanes.

There is no race, national origin, religion, creed, sexual orientation, or gender identity with a monopoly on patriotism.

There is, unfortunately, a certain subset of white heterosexual men who believe they have the right to dictate who is and is not fit to serve.

That latter group can fuck off.

Explaining very weak correlation as the number of mammals visiting the moon relating to the number of cars on the road over time.

Because I was asked if it would be possible to graph a very weak correlation, said no, and was then asked why.

I love jerb.

Enron wanted to create a trading market for futures in weather. It's inevitable some other gang of morons comes up with the same idea and runs to equally stupid people to fund it.

I got stopped on the street in Koenji (Tokyo) and taken to the koban (police box) because there was an assault earlier in the day in Chiba (also Tokyo.)

This is the same thing ICE is doing now. They hear about a possible assault in San Bernardino and start jamming people up in Brentwood.
White privilege is just a fancy way of saying “you don’t have to deal with racism”, it doesn’t mean you have a Rolls Royce and a staff of servants.

It does mean you don’t have to worry about ICE tackling you in the hallway because a neighbor said you “look illegal.”

Listening to airframe structural mechanics argue about how Schrader valves work. There are six of them. They're all convinced they're right and the other five are wrong.

They just got done arguing about how radar works.

Anthropic "released" (-5 for incorrect word choice, should be "sponsored and paid for") a study saying people are 1,892,312% (or some other absurd number) more efficient when using their "product."

Yes, and I'm sure the Philip-Morris "studies" about smoking not causing cancer were equally unbiased.

I still feel sorry for the Air Force recruiter who kept calling my parents' house asking if I was available to talk or interested in enlisting.

For two years. After I joined the Navy.

I am an Eagle Scout.

I will always be proud of Scouting. To be fair, they've grappled with some heinous shit of late.

That said, the core tenets of decency toward others, selfless community service, respect for diversity of thought, and doing the right thing even when it's hard? It's still there.

Remembering when I returned from a three week TAD in Japan to find a noise complaint from my downstairs neighbor sent through the landlord.

Dated from a week prior.

Bro, I know we went a little hard in Shinjuku but I didn't think you could hear it 5,500 miles away.

John Scalzi, although a menace to burritos, gets it.
I cannot imagine what could possibly go wrong in trying to court-martial an astronaut and pilot decorated multiple times for valor and exceptional service, who is also a sitting senator, for correctly making the point that service members are obliged not to follow unlawful orders
Hegseth is now threatening to recall Sen. Mark Kelly to active duty in order to court martial him.

Being in the Navy made wardrobe choices for work really easy.

Normal day: brown things.
Working on aircraft day: coverall things.
Airplane ride: zoom bag things.
Important people: white or black fancy things.

Although civilian work clothes are hard sometimes, the shoes?
