My manifesto will be three key points:

The US needs a seperate and holisitc Joint Helicopter Force (with 160th somewhat set apart), similar to the UK;

The Pontiac Fiero is superior to the AW11 MR2;

The V-280 is NOT GOOD

About halfway through @jessiegender.bsky.social 's 4-hour opus on the Ferengi. It's brilliant.

Also we get to see Lindsey Ellis follow up "Brunt" with "..FCA", so that's a definite win.

But really, it's a brilliant examination of Ferengi.

I have the best dogs in the world.

HEY FORD, JUST MAKE THIS AGAIN.

This week's episode of RCR takes a crack at the 1989 Ford Ranger, a small truck from a time when that didn't seem like a revolutionary concept.

since we're letting podcasters run the FBI now, I'd like to make it known to any future presidents that if you appoint me i will pronounce the "human" in "human trafficking" like Quark from DS9.

there will be no other substantial changes

thank you for your attention to this matter

One is always during sweater weather and people aren't allowed to go down the aisles during a play.

The other is a great way to get sunburnt and heat exhaustion while the 3\4s of the players sit in the shade the entire game waiting for the game to happen

I had no idea, either. I wonder if pogey-bait is also as old?

NotchbackFiero @notchbackfiero.bsky.social · 4d

Yes! Bring in Liam Neeson to play the old man, and you've got a direct connection even!

This is such a niche ask for a family member but if you found a car key fob and some other keys on the LES last night send me a message. Likely near Essex and Stanton 🫠

My first thought was “wow I hope this guy didn’t give out his name because he could absolutely be charged” and yup, he is correct to stay anonymous.

This man’s account is shocking. His neighbors’ situation is shocking. The entire Chicago raid is shocking.

On the other side was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for his help.
"I wasn't planning on letting her stay, but I didn't know what the hell was going on," the man said of his Venezuelan migrant neighbors. But he quickly relented. The little girl was inconsolable and hid under his bed.
"I didn't want them to take her," said the man, who didn't want to be named because he fears he'll be targeted by federal authorities for his actions.
"I gave her my bedroom, and I just told her,
'Just stay there. Don't open, don't, shh, just stay quiet," he recalled telling the mom and daughter as he choked back tears.
