Reading today that pentagon officials are expressing concern over the depletion of military stockpiles due to the "military intervention " in Iran.

How long before they realize there is a ready made workforce in the DHS detentions camps to backfill those stockpiles?;

Ballentine Books.

I read all the books on WWII in the 60s and 70s.

All the amazing things the Allies did to win the war. Military tech was cool.

I was gung ho to join the military.

Then there was Viet Nam. Summer of ' 68.

I learned war isn't glory.

War is death and destruction.

We forget?

Probably a bad take

Men's slicked back hair styles make me think: yup there's a wanna be alpha male right winger.

May be an unpopular take but I think acoustic guitars with a cutaway are just wrong.

Ok now. I just saw a post, and I dont know the veracity of the post, that said that a song constant replaying in one's head is a sign of ADHD or autism.

Well this morning it was a Beatles tune then later some Jean Michel Jarre and now Flock of Seaguls and...

Oh Hell I'm toast

One problem of being a history major is when I have to research for a paper I find so many rabbit holes I want to go down and research but can't 'cuz I'm on deadline and have to get the paper done.

*Bing* "your flight boards in two hours"

What the...

Check. Damned corporate travel agency didn't cancel my reservations like I asked them too.

*canceled flight hurriedly*

Prolly gonna get hit with a charge.

Damned corporate travel.

Of course, delay in Artemis II launch didnt help.

Modular is a black hole that sucks you in. There is no stopping it.

My module count has doubled in size.

On the other hand, think of what you can do! I've got 4 VCOs, 3 LFOs and 3 sequencers, plus all the modulating decices.

I feel like a mad scientist at times.
