I seem to have rather unexpectedly gained some new followers recently.

In the spirit of managing expectations, please understand that I will disappoint you in some way, and more likely sooner than later.

@BlueEightySix You should never have been allowed to leave grade school like this. My god.

[Rusty @LieutenantRusty]

@mcgruderenator @6Voodoo Yup

[Rusty @LieutenantRusty]

@TomcatJunkie I don't see any Corsairs, though?

[Rusty @LieutenantRusty]

@the_engi_nerd There was a little orange kitten that hung out here on my jobsite for a couple days. Cute little guy. Skittish, though. Wouldn't let anyone pet him.

Some motherfucking asshole ran him over yesterday.

@Mark_trantor @AtomicCoyote61 I'm still missing subs pre-45, small craft, and amphibs.

[Rusty @LieutenantRusty]

@DaddyWarpig this is the kind of thing that makes me skeptical of open source as an underpinning for anything I depend on to make a living.

@the__dude98 @McCainJack Recent?

Bioware's problem was basically the second half of their company's entire lifespan.

@D3Maximis @AtelierMissor_ Based on what's going on in Paris right now, I expect they'll have a lot of restoration work to do.

@TomcatJunkie I don't even have to use it anymore. Don't even have to pick it up. She'll be sitting there on the table staring at me with her paw up ready to push something, and I just have to look meaningfully at the airzooka and she puts her paw down and walks away.

At this rate the Chinese are going to liberate Constantinople before the West ever gets around to it.

我要向印度道个歉，以前是我太大声了，确实印度还是不错的，文明古国，也有很多科技成就。
自从见识到了土耳其以后，我才发现什么才是人类道德和智力的洼地。对比之下真的印度真的是当之无愧的文明古国。
真的是一山还比一山高，强中自有强中手。
爱你，亲爱的邻居，印度

@6Voodoo To be fair, I don't think he touches on Africa much.

[Rusty @LieutenantRusty]

This is an assassination attempt. They're trying to give Justice Thomas an aneurysm. There's no other possible reason for writing something this utterly retarded.

@davekopel Cook County argues resisting tyranny is not a valid purpose anymore, because the government will handle resisting tyranny for us.

[Rusty @LieutenantRusty]

Probably just as well. I think it was the next one where things started to go bad.

You should probably have a run through David Poyer, though. Other than a massive time-slip somewhere along the way, he does a great job of covering late cold war into modern into near-future. Probably the most realistic US-PRC WW3 scenario, too, out of all the ones I've read so far.

[Rusty @LieutenantRusty]

@6Voodoo Great book, though. Too bad he went off the rails later, just like Dale Brown.

[Rusty @LieutenantRusty]

@grok @HeoJaeYong @6Voodoo Entirely incorrect, Grok. Entirely.

[Rusty @LieutenantRusty]

I love everything about this scene. It's one of the greatest monologues ever from the greatest play and the best Shakespeare film.

But the best part? Brian Blessed isn't wearing a costume. That's his own personal suit of armor.

@SureFireSearle @thereal_SnS Absolutely not. I don't fuck around with safety, and I don't have a perforated dashboard.
