  1. Unless we start it's own thread, I'll put it here as "Surveillance" popped up here in the search enough times. https://www.wired.com/story/airlines-dont-want-you-to-know-they-sold-your-flight-data-to-dhs/ I found this quote interesting: “It's clear the data broker loophole is pushing the government back towards a pernicious ‘collect it all’ mentality, gobbling up as much sensitive data as it can about all Americans by default. A decade ago the public rejected that approach, and Congress passed surveillance reform legislation that banned domestic bulk collection. Clearly it's time for Congress to step in again, and stop the data broker loophole from being used to circumvent that ban.”
  2. Don't forget this protest accessory.
  3. And they got grand slammed today. AMFs!
  4. Louisville tops Miami.
  5. Still retarded, just like it was in field training/zoo/etc. Show me the real world training aspect that makes this worth it, Signed, Killjoy
  6. Because it's a stupid parade. Like we need to spend $$$ on that shit. But I guess little Taco needs an ego stroke so he can look mighty like Un. Tards.
  7. What is to stop our enemies from getting into the US, buying some containers and rigs, and parking them a mile from a base? Other than good explosives, not much. Fleet composition doesn't stop this.
  8. Quick, everyone short Tesla for a week, then buy it again low. They'll hug it out on Thursday, I hear.
  9. Yeah, we're rooting for the Razorbacks.
  10. My exit plan was made, confirmed with the fam, and then a few things happened. The 95th Flying Badgers were moving to Pope and the AF gave me a school slot. It turned out well enough as the financial crisis happened a little later and airlines took a beating. But if Wall St hadn't fucked shit up and BRAC/Big Blue hadn't forced the 95th out of Milwaukee, I'd have been doing weekends in a Herc, M-F in a 737, and drinking great WI beer everyday.
  11. Modern day sappers. Demonstrated, and now every base with aircraft on the ramp is a huge risk. Anti-drone tech/systems is where our R&D/Acquisition resources need to be focused and fast. And hard shelters, but those take a lot of space and if you leave the door open, it can still go boom. Z made a statement, and maybe the scale was set to what occurred, but what if his army was able to hit more bases, more planes, more radars/AA/Comms/Arty/drone stations/etc?
  12. @lloyd christmas I took your post and article to mean exactly what you intended, any side digging in hard and propagating their spew. My tin foil hat uncle is so far into conspiracies, I mess with him by saying, "That's what the Chinese want you to think." I'll try to find it, but an investigative writer did a story on a '24 congressional campaign that was trying to set a spending record. Dude flew to the state, listened to all the ads, went to bars and chatted with locals, and almost everyone asked on who they supported and why, gave at least 1 buzzword/phrase from the ad blitz, regardless of the side they supported. IDK if the writter asked how many changed their vote based on the ads, but the point was the ads do get inside our heads. https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2024/11/election-results-donald-trump-kamala-harris-ads-montana.html
  13. New investment strategy, TACO. Recent history checks, so far. I like the call sign, tho. https://www.mediaite.com/media/news/taco-wall-street-mocks-trump-with-4-letter-code-to-call-bets-against-him/
  14. Not surprised Trump/staff would do this. All part of just saying shit because enough believe him regardless. I can't wait for oval smack downs on chem trails, lizard people, and flat earth shit. https://www.reuters.com/world/africa/trumps-image-dead-white-farmers-came-reuters-footage-congo-not-south-africa-2025-05-22/
  15. You posted a thought-out explanation of what Trump was trying to convey. Nice analysis, you put some thoughts into it. Since you seem to good at this type of work, maybe you should stand next to him and do it live. Get it? And yes, I think there is noticeable cognitive decline too.
  16. Maybe you should give the speeches. Or maybe stand next to him and say, "What the President meant was..."
  17. Don't let the link distract you. I heard it, drafted a post, then googled a link for ref. Name another prez speech that references/weaves trophy wives. if there's another, then I'll consider it average political leader speak.
  18. Any defenders wanna take a stab at explaining the weave on trophy wives in T's West Point rambling? If this was Biden talking, MAGAs be losing their shit on mental capes. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-west-point-address-dei-immigration-b2757275.html
  19. And now Musk, by most appearances, is pretty much gone too. https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-wiped-elon-musk-name-150848889.html
  20. I knew him as an O-6, a no nonsense submariner. I would NOT have thought this was the same guy when I saw the headlines. Thing is, dudes that make 4 stars almost always have no problems getting a good post mil gig that doesn't involve doing shady shit. Even the assholes get jobs. If you remember, he was charged with recommeding the fate of the Navy Carrier Capt that sent the SOS email during covid. He rec'd restoration, SecNav chose torpedo.
  21. Every time I walk by her caricature at KLIT, I hope someone has added horns and a Hitler stash to her fucking mug on the wall.
  22. Trash Panda. There, feel better? 😁
  23. We were doing an iron swap and happen to be going to the same place that a "team" (6? dudes) needed to get to, so we loaded up their ISU90 with "you don't want to know what's in there" and headed to the ME. Load announces on initial climb out, "Yo, you ain't gonna believe this, dudes are stripped down to speedos and are playing some form of tag, oh wait, shit dog, there's a swinging dick. Dudes are nuts, I now I can't unsee nuts. I guess its some form of strip tag?" The play by play had us rolling to tears. LM had a calling in standup.
