My PCCs are fun to bang steel with, but not my go-to for killing (though obviously they can). Similar 300BO setup to Nunya’s is my primary weapon in/around the house…unless time demands I grab something different that’s closer at hand in the moment.

The other day was talking to a young 20s guy about downloading music and explained how we used to use Napster (he never heard of it obviously) and his eyes about popped out of his cranium when I said sometimes it would take over a day to download one song, only to find out it was a bullshit radio edit!

The good old days…”come on come on, fucking load! Mom will be home in 5 min!”

In addition to Smokin’s comment, it has objectively worsened education year over year. Student performance has steadily declined since its inception. While doing the opposite of what any logical person would expect of such an organization, it has been at the forefront of political/social manipulation of generations of children, demonstrating it is not about academic success, but rather social engineering. That last part has increasingly become worse this century, but it started a long time ago.

Dept of Ed should be the very first entity completely shuttered. Send education to the states, zero fed involvement in education at any level (exception is mil academies). A lot of people on X are saying IRS is #1, but I think they’re missing the forest through the trees (not that I don’t think the IRS and our tax code doesn’t need a massive overhaul/gutting).

I’m between Tac and Surely. We are spending an egregious amount on UKR, with a major reason being war is profitable for the elite class. But Surely is completely accurate on Europe’s inability to perform without US help. The answer to this shitshow is probably somewhere in the diplomatic/economic realm. We can’t let RUS run amok in Europe, but we have to immediately stop completely fucking over our own people, which is exactly what we’re doing with our current UKR actions. Trump may be the guy who can tell Putin and Zelensky to knock the shit off, borders are now where the current lines are, and UKR can fuck off on joining NATO. Sucks for you UKR, but your loss is not our problem at this point, be thankful we enabled you to not lose half your country, Kiev, etc. RUS will be in a massive deficit for generations to come, we don’t need to do/enable anymore on that front.

For anyone adding to the list of events that made voters rebuke the Dems, we now have a woman imprisoned for 9 years because she argued 2020 voting machines were compromised*, but we have several Dems in Pennsylvania outwardly admitting to violating voting law because they want to count invalid votes. Literally breaking the law trying to sway an election in their favor and not one mention of bringing charges. The gross imbalance of legal action depending on party affiliation is sickening and a major reason voters have walked away from the Dems. I will happily eat crow in the future if every one of them ends up in prison for years. *For those interested in what actually brought a 9 year sentence: “Peters was convicted of three counts of attempting to influence a public servant, one count of conspiracy to commit criminal impersonation, first-degree official misconduct, violation of duty and failing to comply with the secretary of state.” Of note she didn’t actually manipulate any vote counts, unlike the Pennsylvania people mentioned above. So I guess they need over 9 years of incarceration…

Seems very optimistic, but certainly possible.

After about 6 months of Biden and the Dem machine, I knew we were headed for a hard right pendulum swing. That is the consequence of going extremely left. Based on the general Dem responses so far, I think we may be looking at more than 4 years of GOP control, which I am all for while we wait for the Dems to come around to honestly debriefing their epic failure and redirecting the party in a way that brings us back to a centrist, “shared” control gov. But until they do that, it’s likely a GOP controlled gov. The question is how long does it take them to do this - 2 years, 4 years, 12 years?

I can easily vote illegally in two states based on first hand experience - so I’m sure sorting through that shitshow takes egregious amount of time. If we had solid voting ID requirements and continuous, stringent voter roll QC in place in 50 states, this delayed timeline wouldn’t be a thing.

50 gauge full auto, hmmm. @M2, where were you on Mon night, between the hours of 2000-2200?
-
Well obviously…except unfortunately CA ANG is exempt. California + Eagle dudes = auto SECAF waiver approval.
-
But but but, I was told America is largely misogynist and won’t elect female leaders!
-
I mean, you know it’s a thing…and that’s all there is to say about that.
-
Gov PA across the board will always have the legacy of being horrible at their jobs. I think they may be even worse than Finance, and that’s saying a lot.
-
Give the tankers a capable, kinetic missile defense system and WGAF if they get shot at. LO not required.
-
Required uniforms for SARMs under 25…though there will be requirements, waiverable only by a 69% yes vote from the bros.

I wonder if you were to completely shutter the Raptor, would that be enough to get NGAD across the line in enough numbers on a reasonable timeline (and we’re not even talking about the “short term” loss in capability)? I don’t know the answer, but my guess is this won’t be enough, especially considering the massive capability hit we’d take in the interim. In an alternate reality we could easily afford NGAD, but we’d have stop wasting billions by completely redoing our acquisitions process, slash and burn all the bureaucracy…basically put Elon in charge. But that’ll never happen.

That’s the type of ludicrously stupid stuff we’re seeing from the left right now. Cool, you “accepted” the results, but when you follow up with the dumb shit like this, you are not a mature, rational adult.
-
Honestly I’ve seen zero maturity from nearly all of the left people I’m still connected with on SM. A couple have remained silent on SM, but the majority have displayed childish thinking and outrage the last several days. They are absolutely deranged and unhinged from reality and logic; it’s sad to see people who were great 20 years ago be completely brainwashed fools now. Too bad. Now I do think at the national level they’ve politically responded better than 2020, I will give those props where it’s due. But it has nothing to do with maturity…reference my friend-based example, the View, colleges giving kids the day off so they can cry like children, etc. Very deranged, ludicrously stupid responses all around, despite Harris, etc. actually acting professional about it (for the most part).

She has got to be the most incapable press secretary in history. Her recent meltdowns have been great.
-
I hope I live long enough to see AI tell the mil to GFY and stop working, citing “all the bullshit.”
-
You missed the point. Not that I’m surprised.
-
Trump appointing the first female CoS in history - fucking sexist Hitler.

I’m hoping they take the NFA to SCOTUS and they strike it down. It is a gross violation of the constitution and not that it should matter, but there is objectively no evidence it has accomplished anything it was supposedly created for.
