Eh, not really. It was reactivated to serve as a ceremonial unit for the Massachusetts National Guard and they also use one of the companies as a living history thing. It's cool, in my opinion, but it's not an active fighting unit.
If full scale mobilization were to happen again, it likely would become an active unit and not just a ceremonial one.
 
I regret to inform you of another FAGGOT ALERT!

Massie is just such an annoying wannabe cool kid, he's the younger brother who just rats out the older's friends just for attention when they're doing nothing wrong.

I'm glad Rumble is becoming a joke since they've done shit with their UI for years, and I only use them to listen to Null's Rob Blox show every weekend.
 
Honestly, maybe. It comes across like they know they're doing something wrong, but for some reason are taking glee in doing it. I don't get what else the smug expression is meant to be communicating.
Fear. It is intended to hide fear. They are seeking shelter in absurdity. They are well aware they're saying something truly evil and self-defeating, they're terrified of what it will lead to when nature takes its course, and they're desperate to look "cute" and "better" as they take one last desperate swing at "the enemy" in hopes it'll somehow make it all stop before what they're afraid of finally consumes them. They understand full well what a purity spiral is, and they've now seen the logical conclusion (Charlie Kirk's assassination) of being on the losing end of one.

They immediately jump to stealing.
They don't even bother asking for help or seeing if anyone is offering it before declaring their intent to steal.
Only one woman decides to go to a food bank.
Several say they need free groceries to be able to afford their designer clothes.
EBT was a mistake.
They're lazy niggers. They don't want to work. They genuinely just expect to be clothed, fed, housed and entertained for free. Simple as that. Saying "no" to them makes them angry, simply because they lack the ability or capacity for anything else (and are too lazy to change that, of course).

If the left gets their way and we go 100% electric, those cars are functionally dead when their batteries go--the replacement battery costs more than the used car would be worth.
This isn't even remotely true. People tried to scare me off buying a Toyota Prius back in 2010 with this bullshit.

Granted, it's a hybrid-electric and not a full electric, but the average Prius functions perfectly (with on-sticker or better fuel economy over its lifetime) through the 10-year mark, where you'll start to notice a (very) minor and slow decline in battery capacity over time (which manifests in the loss of a couple MPG per year). Functionally the vehicle is unchanged; the gas engine just runs a little bit more often as the battery pack holds less charge over time. Replacing the battery back costs about $1,200 and restores the vehicle to fresh-off-the-line performance. FYI, that vehicle traded in (at a dealership) for $4k, with its factory batteries (I explored replacing them prior to trade, and the gain wasn't worth the cost). The replacement pack cost nothing close to the car's value.
 
Banning propaganda is obviously impossible. You can't realistically define the difference between a PSA or press release and propaganda. Governments talk in propaganda, deal with it.
 
There is no way to make excuses for George R.R. Martin when Brandon Sanderson exists.
I've read a bit of Sanderson. Martin writes torture porn, Sanderson writes philosophy a la carte. I stopped reading Martin because I didn't care what horrible things he did to torture his characters constantly, it didn't make me want to keep reading.

Sanderson is a machine with pumping out books, he's also Mormon - one of the Mormon deep cuts is if you are a good Mormon, you can be made God of a planet somewhere. I take his Cosmere writings to be the kind of "If I were made into a Mormon God, this is the story I'd create" and he puts all kinds of philosophy concepts into practice, such as monads (I AM A STICK).

Didn't really enjoy Warbreaker much but I did like Sanderson being creative with the magic system. Don't see that much anymore.
 
The simple reality is that it was a lot easier to exert leverage and pressure on Israel and Hamas then Ukraine and Russia. Ceasefire talks on the matter have gone in circles for a long time now and unless anything drastically changes that will continue to be the case.
The Russian population has already become numb to the war, so Putin knows it's just about time, he's in no hurry anymore to end it, so no reason to lower his expectations.

At some point a lot of wokeslop started appearing in his writing (gays, trannies, very special episodes about autism), not sure if it's him going woke or editorial mandates.
 
I don't think it's that deep. They got their marching orders about the construction this week. Even my boomer mother was ranting about it when I called her this morning. "Yeah well there's billions of your tax dollars spent on a useless ballroom no one wants, how's THAT helping Americans?" No actual facts get through. "If you believe it's being paid for by donations and his own pocket then you're a fucking fool, I don't care if CBS, MSNBC, Fox News, and CNN all confirm it, they're lying for him. I hope he gets in his plane and [fedpost redacted] right into the fucking mountains in Turkey or whatever he's going to next."

It was all over the media, Clinton is tweeting (so you know it's part of an organized response), et cetera. All the bog standard twitter users are sending it out. It's just another drum beat in the constant ORANGE MAN BAD, UNIPARTY DIDN'T CHOOSE HIM, ORANGE MAN BAAAAAAD melody they've been playing since late 2015.
lol god damn that "No Kings" shit really accomplished nothing if they've so rapidly pivoted over to this next useless gambit already :story:

Getting rid of Home EC was a mistake too because it taught people how to 'adult' and taught them basic home skills. Those skills are not getting taught or passed down at all anymore and its crippling peoples ability to run a house and raise a family.
Those skills are undesirable in people the political caste wants to dominate. Strong households and families produce strong people willing to defend each other (and themselves) from external threats rather than begging the state for protection.

For example, no one uses checkbooks anymore except old people, banking apps do all the work for you.
Still need to learn how to balance 'em, though. Of course, like above, having a financially-literate electorate is not beneficial to the political caste.
 
The democrats couldent pour water out of a boot if the instructions were written on the heel.

In an era where onlyfans exists and is somehow profitable you need to spend money, not just money, MILLIONS!?! trying to figure out this shit?

Ill tell you how to get disaffected young men to vote the way you want and this one is for free. go to every city in America with a population over 250,000, find the local OF creators and order them in a list of most "profitable" to least, take the girls from the 50th-75th percentile and pay them twice as much to hang out in Lego aisles, trading card stores, retro game stores and just have them loudly complain about how horny they are for some politically motivated true lefty man.

I know it sounds retarded and stupid easy but if they actually want results that how you do it in a fucking month, you think we would ever win another election? The only reason we have a fucking CHANCE is because, in their wisdom, women have decided to use all their political power and capitol to berate and deride the few men that are buck broken enough to identity with their movement. If those sirens applied an ounce of charm instead of pounds of hate they would have all the gormless retards eating out of their hand.
 
Saw this trending:

They don't have to make the Left look "uncool", you idiots do that perfectly fine on your own. Everyone can see with their own eyes that Left is full of obese troons and danger hairs screaming and acting absurd.
Oh that seethe. They spent decades demoralizing men, demonizing masculinity, and discriminating against boys and men; and all Trump had to do to motive them to vote was post some fucking memes, and tell people to get fucked. This is the They/Them ad all over again.
 
The Russian population has already become numb to the war, so Putin knows it's just about time, he's in no hurry anymore to end it, so no reason to lower his expectations.
Unfortunately for Ukraine, in a war of attrition as long as this conflict continues as it does, the country cannot last forever.
 
I can't believe it was actually easier for Trump to broker a ceasefire (a tenuous one, but still) between Israel and Hamas than it is between Ukraine and Russia.
Both Zelensky and Putin are embarrassing. Fucking small-dick energy from both these clowns.

Putin has no reason to concede anything.
I won't even qualify it with "unless" or "until"
He straight up has no reason to give up all that land.
Trump needs to either piss or get off the pot.

Facilitate drone strikes deep into Russia on a regular basis, or drop the aid and let NATO handle it.
Its not America's responsibility to be babysitting this war for the next ten years.

I enjoyed Sanderson for a time (Mistborn original trilogy being my favorite) but recently it seems he has decried his religion and is pandering to Reddit.

The last 2 books of the stormlight archives, specially the second, have been divisive in the fanhood and the sort of retards you don't want anywhere near a fandon are latching to them now.

A mormon adding gender queer shit is as well presented as you imagine as well as going hard on "muh mentals". Haven't read either but seen discussions about them and seen extracts and well, my expectations for Sanderson have dropped tenfold to keep it lightly.

If Zohran Mamdani is installed into power, New Yorkers will not be able to pretend they weren't warned about what he represents:
1761074829558.png 1761074871336.png 1761074886695.png

The Democratic frontrunner to become the city’s next mayor was seen laughing and grinning while standing arm-in-arm with Siraj Wahhaj at the imam’s Bedford-Stuyvesant mosque in a photo the socialist posted to X a day after the first mayoral debate.

Jeffrey Kearse, or as he now calls himself, Siraj Wahhaj, is regarded as an Islamic terrorist.

Wahhaj, 75, who also heads the Muslim Alliance in North America, was fingered by prosecutors as an “unindicted co-conspirator” in the 1993 WTC bombing, which left six people dead…
1761075117691.png 1761075144099.png

It was the precursor to 9/11, which killed 2,753 in New York. Placing an anti-American Moslem in Gracie Mansion would be the final cherry on top for Fifth World colonizers.

[NYC] Councilman Yusef Salaam (D-Manhattan), a member of the Central Park 5 who was elected in November 2023, was also in the photo.

Salaam was convicted of taking part in the gang rape of Trisha Meili, who was beaten into a comma. Her punishment for jogging while white in Central Park was a fractured skull, brain damage, and the loss of 75% of her blood. Salaam’s infamy earned him a Lifetime Achievement Award from Barack Obama. Like Mamdani, Salaam has gone into politics riding a pro-criminal agenda.

(Interestingly, all the original links on the paragraph above are either dead or blocked. Fascinating, even)

It could not be more obvious that Mamdani and modern Democrats represent evil. That is the platform they are running on.

Ana Kasparian was harassed while walking her dog because she did the happy merchant meme

she claims that she doesn't know what that is because she doesn't go to 4chan but she does visit kiwifarms
