Redacted for having not asked permission Responds Ohh. That's you?
PB: Yup! Thy'rak is my secondary OC specifically developed to be an in-universe Force Oracle.
Redacted direct reply: Love your work there. Inspired me to [make] an NPC I wanna have on one of our Star Wars LARPS.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:g25o7e5p4e7e35cqgkckwxup/bafkreihj5bbnymbqv3bttgvb4g77xlsn5t3s2qd4g6s3sljakrvlgaggey@jpeg)
This might just be the best thing I've ever, or will ever, see or hear about others viewing my #TaungsdayReading.
Love that I've inspired others!

Hegseth needs to go (to jail) and so does everyone in that chain of command
Senator Kelly is correct.
Plus a Public Service Announcement:
KEY section of Department of Defense's Law of War Manual is 18.3.2.1.
The VERY rule on the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders gives as its paradigmatic example of what is "clearly illegal:
"orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

I am a Christ follower and I know the answer: The American Evangelical Church can not demonize him or they risk demonizing others who make money in the same, albeit less watched, way e.g. Corporate Billionaires.
i am not a christian but i have no idea why there isn't some big panic about a guy called "mr. beast" amassing tremendous amounts of fame and influence by literally getting people to do dangerous and degrading things

I'll keep repeating it til' I'm blue in the face - making comics is actually an exceptionally difficult task. I'm quick as hell but each page I draw represents about 10-20 hours of work from writing to final output. I deserve to be paid for that work.

Let’s be clear: these are extrajudicial killings. “Kill them all” Hegseth needs to be held accountable.
What’s more, Trump promised the American people no new wars but is now manufacturing this conflict & lying about his motives.

I think the real question it raises is how useful CEOs truly are
A study by Dayforce shows 87% of executives use AI for work, compared to 57% of managers and just 27% of employees.
I think this explains the massive disconnect we see in how CEOs talk about AI versus everyone else. It also raises the question of how useful it truly is for frontline work?
