TSIF?

“Websites that allow anonymous publishing by angry men and foreign agents are the single most important force in modern politics.” How did we get here? Where did it all go so very, very wrong?

Been thinking about this Zappa quote a lot lately.

The Spicy Potato says: “Feed me!”

This is going to be a long one. Not everyone has a glut of rucks to choose from, if you’re playing the home game the additional choice of MOS/class can alway dictate other kit options. The best part of forced march training is, all you need is boots and a backpack. D66 Ruck/MOS table for #ves2025

Jack Crawford: I could swear this french toast is made with organ meats instead of bread Hannibal: this is an ancient family recipe, the bread is infused with umami. Crawford: Simply remarkable Hannibal, thinking to himself: next week I will tell him the sweetbreads are actually cupcakes
