Saw some clips of Rachel Zegler as Evita and my immediate thought was "she looks too young" but that's on me for being used to 30-somethings playing the role when the person Eva Peron was just 27 when she became first lady of Argentina

"RUMINT" is just military/government slang for "gossip" and should not be taken seriously. But it is fun sometimes.

The single most revealing fact I every learned about the French Revolution was that in rationalizing time they tried a nine-day work week with one rest day. Patrick’s pro tip for our reactionary revolutionaries: whatever you do, you cannot reduce the number of holidays.

I think the key to understanding every soldier's lack of caring in this parade is to know that this is a three-day-weekend for most of the rest of the Army, in honor of the Army's birthday.

Every NCO academy about to add 48 hours of drill and ceremony instructional time as a wild over reaction to this

I think the only message is "I really don't want to be here, doing this" tbh.

listen if you want troops to march in step and have a dazzling parade, ours are bad at it. if you want a burger king anywhere on the globe in 48 hours though, they got you

So I think they're not in dress uniforms because not everyone's required to have the new dress uniform, it's still being phased in and deadline to have it is 2027. That means some people only have the blues and some people only have the pinks and greens and no one has both.

My mom's small upstate NY village of 5,000 people issued a permit gathering for 50 people at today's protest. My mom says there are at least several hundred people there.

I was waiting to hear a motive because I worked in government long enough to know sometimes government workers get caught up in messy murderous personal drama too but they seem pretty certain. Well, shit.

counterpoint: "no kings" is a snappier phrase, it's shorter and easier to write on signs, and it ties into the American origin story

My 19 year old has spent the entire evening painting signs and is genuinely excited to go out tomorrow and protest but you nerds want to tell me that it's bad and cringe and pales in comparison to your strategy of not firebombing a Walmart.

A few hours ago I saw a skeet saying that on the 250th celebration of the Army's birthday the Army has turned against their country because the Marines arrested a guy in LA and I feel like no more perfect "well actually" bait for Marine and Army veterans has ever existed.

US Veterans peacefully protesting Trump’s military birthday parade arrested at Capitol Hill. This is the moment a 80+ year old US veteran is taken away in handcuffs for practicing his 1st Amendment right. #3E #NoKings #NoKingsProtests (🎥 @gregjstoker.bsky.social )

I refuse to believe that some of you are making whipped cream without a splash of vanilla in it. We live in a society.

I learned just this year that "Chantilly cream" is just whipped cream and now I look at any store calling it "Chantilly cream" as obnoxiously pretentious.

Was watching a TikTok from a pediatrician asking why parents care if she has kids or not and I was on her side because you don't need to have kids to diagnose a disease until she mentioned she was talking about sleep training. And yeah. Sorry but I don't trust non-parents on sleep training.

The "I know what will make people more sympathetic to my cause, having beef with a teenage genocide victim from the 1940s" people are, as always, the weirdest people on Earth.

Need a version of this with the Getty Museum pointed out as well to send to my 70-something parents from upstate NY who will be flying through LAX next month and were planning on extending their trip by a day or two to check out some museums but now are nervous about it.

If you want to know why so many parents resort to pre-packaged snacks with toddlers it's because a toddler will look you dead in the eye, say "I'm super hungry", request a specific food like eggs or toast, and then then when you make it and give it to them they eat two bites and say "All done!"

you ever watch hamilton liberals go from idea to fully rally with media coverage, rented porta-potties and catered snacks in 48 hours while your communist group breaks up over whether "coalition" sounds too hierarchical? it's humbling.
