this is a pet peeve of mine. "war crime" is not something that means "bad thing I think is wrong". it is not a war crime to murder thousands of retreating enemy soldiers. it is a war crime to paint a Red Cross on a truck. if you think something is morally wrong just fucking say that.

ok so the basic problem here is that you have no idea what “war criminal” means except it’s a phrase that people react to

It's over: I've already depicted you as the seething broad gauge train, and myself as the smug narrow gauge!

A sketch of two steam trains, human faces on the front. The title above them says 'The Broad Gauge and the Narrow Gauge'. The narrow gauge train is looking unbearably smug, then broad gauge absolutely raging. In the smoke, they are communicating, the broad gauge saying "You are a locomotive" and the narrow saying "You are another".

For some reason I decided that in order to work out the 2090s distribution of divisions, I should make a current day equivalent (yes I know the image compression on bsky will be awful and these will be almost completely unreadable) #orbatboys

A map of Oceania (including Indonesia, New Guinea, Australia, New Zealand and Melanesia) with major ground combat formations overlaid onto it

A map of North America (including Canada, the United States (and Hawaii) and Mexico) with major ground combat formations overlaid onto it

A map of Western Europe (stopping before Ukraine, Belarus and Turkey)) with major ground combat formations overlaid onto it

If this was happening in any other country you'd have journalists and analysts discussing risks of state failure

No, it was spicier than that, it was a convertible HMG/GMG

(the bare version in the first and second photos is the XM806, intended as a lightweight HMG)
