@davidyamane Ah yes, TLT (Too Little Time) syndrome.

@katrosenfield NGL something about the #2 picture in the bottom row is workin’ for me-but-does that red handle have peyronie’s disease?

[Ed @edroh74]

@Musa_alGharbi Look, if fighting fascism means I can’t wear my PJ’s for a uniform, I’m out.

@Musa_alGharbi RE: M. Yglesias’s post-I have a friend who took his family of four on a vacation to Australia simply by putting the money they typically spent on dining out/Doordash in the piggy bank instead for a year.

[Ed @edroh74]

@robkhenderson So, Pinker’s thesis in _Better Angels_ is 🐂💩?

[Ed @edroh74]

@Musa_alGharbi Yeah, kinda been shaking my head over the “shocking” revelations that-surprise! ultra blue voters in ultra blue metros vote for ultra blue candidates (or deep red voters vote for…)

@StephenGutowski Wait-is this for a chicken wedding? Because that would be adorbs!

[Ed @edroh74]

@2Aupdates No tactical advantage, but tastefully done they shore are purdy!

@GhostCoase Respectfully, as to your stance on hunting-if you are a vegetarian/vegan, I certainly respect your stance. If you eat commercially grown and slaughtered animals, I gotta say for me personally I’d rather lead a relatively free life as a deer or elk than a feedlot cow…

[Ed @edroh74]

@UnfreeBurger @GhostCoase I think the idea is _cultural_ elitism, a sort of “look what these knuckle-dragging, walleyed, drooling social troglodytes are foolishly spending their hard earned money on.”

@opensrcdefense @radleybalko Thank you!

@2Aupdates Liberal gun owner here. For the record, I did note vote for, and vigorously opposed, WA state’s sin taxes on guns/ammo.

@MorosKostas Recently picked up a Tisas 1911A1 “Remington Rand” copy. Haven’t had a chance to hit the range with it yet, but pretty good first impressions on fit & finish. Türkiye is making some good stuff, it seems.

@khalil_spencer @michaelshermer There’s a lot to unpack in his work, but it seems to hold great explanatory power for what we’ve been seeing in politics and culture since ca. 2010.

[Ed @edroh74]

@khalil_spencer Musa al-Gharbi has a great takedown of land acknowledgements in _We Have Never Been Woke_, noting that universities, institutions & businesses that do these generally refuse to provide any material benefits (e.g. full ride scholarships) to members of impacted tribes.

@davidyamane Precisely the question I ask that just about all of my liberal friends and acquaintances pooh-pooh as unimportant, when the answer to that question could very well lead to policies that save a lot more suffering/lives.
