Call me "Thorn", it's not my name but it suffices. I write and make games sometimes, and I'll probably be dead by thirty.

tanks are cooler than mecha because in tanks, you got a guy who goes, "CONTACT! AP, NINE O CLOCK!" and then another guy picks up a shell and SLAMS it into the gun and goes, "Ready! "and then a THIRD guy goes, "On the way!" then the tank goes BOOM, and it's just full on dudes rock days

This is pretty much a microcosm of everything that makes EoM's vibes so exquisite. The 20th century stylings, the slick editing, the Britishness...
Starfleet Training Video "Make TMP Work for You", 2274.
The complete overheal of almost every starship system by the Total Modification Programme (TMP) required extensive retraining but resulted in a more streamlined, unified fleet.

this is another crime of the sequel trilogy, because the prequels were bad movies built on the bones of an interesting story and the sequels were such incoherent garbage they made people pretend they were actually good
One of the funniest things about getting older is watching people my age succumb to nostalgia about these terrible films.
God its so insane anakin admits to slaughtering a bunch of kids and it’s just a non factor for padme

Clausewitz was deeply emotionally affected by witnessing famine in the Rhineland, describing skeletal figures scrounging for underripe potatoes that were no doubt already ruined by the blight. It is a crowning achievement of our society to have solved this problem that plagued countless generations.
it drives me actually insane to have people romanticizing subsistence agriculture as if that's not just playing russian roulette with your family's lives year by year, and that every single one of their ancestors would throttle them for suggesting giving up their email jobs

Hegseth and the GOP continue to cling to the fantasy that the U.S. harbors a vast untapped reserve of lantern-jawed 6-foot-tall blonde, white, Christian heterosexual young men, all of whom will immediately join the military on the condition that it’s purged of queers, women, and non-white people
Something our glorious Secretary of War does not seem to have considered is that the reason military PT and grooming standards, plus policies for EEO and abuse reporting, are the way they are is because they're necessary for recruitment and retention

I do wonder if people really into gen AI stuff can't tell how obvious it is when something is AI? They've acclimatised their brains to the slop and don't realise how bad it looks to other people.
Sort of like how smokers often don't realise how stongly a non-smoker can smell cigarettes on them.

you also have a moral obligation to pirate them if you care for russian lives, given they're sending men to fight in kit from 75 years ago
you actually have a moral obligation to pirate them
it's literally not even just that you're giving ad revenue to a company that pays taxes in Russia. they quite literally have sent money and tanks to the war in Ukraine
