Eric L. Robinson

It’s one of those “too insane to be credible” tales but the person admitting to it was - according to my (good BS detector) source - entirely serious.

Yes, I sound like I'm taking part in the same madness, but there is some *absolutely bizarre* stuff being shared in polite circles about the Loomer situation.

If I shared a story about a very senior Biden administration official who is going around DC admitting they "work for Laura Loomer", BlueSky would nuke my account for spreading disinformation.

(It comes from a credible source; this former senior official may have serious personal issues right now)

(One of the deep dark secrets of the 2001-2021 era is that SOF had special license to move assets independently, giving it independent initiative that no other military unit could replicate. Selection didn’t create this, affirmative policy choices did)

Remember when BHO did a book event for her in DC?

What’s a billionaire

That’s the trick, there absolutely is

Nonsense

UPenn is now offering degrees in heyblibber studies.

I seem to recall one of our PV2s having an empty checking account due to a 5/10 he met at Coyote Ugly in Nashville.

FWIW, I tried an SFAS application, Olmsted, and began exploring a branch transfer before I gave up. Full ride to grad school kind of eased the decision making.

The country needs to prepare people who know how the machinery functions,

Instead we have straight-to-law school lawyers and Groypers.

State Guards should see a comeback.

In 2009, admittedly a different era, there was an open opportunity for people who were interested in warfare and national security but didn’t want to stand in formation on Friday afternoons listening to a CSM rave and jabber about nasty strip clubs.

Now?

I don’t have advice, just damage control.

Rum, more rum, and the lash then.

Didn't Anton leave State to spend more time with his eyeless doll collection?

Yes, I have a copy

I have a mini-game for a 1942 invasion of Iceland.

It's absolutely serious about an extraordinarily low likelihood / high impact scenario.

A correction has been posted, the appropriate commentator has received credit.

I think we’re pretty clear when we’re reading something out loud

I’m thinking it’s laziness or AI scraping / editorial (a different form of laziness)

The journo allegedly follows me here

I haven’t played Cyberpunk on PC but I’m definitely interested in the tabletop version,

There’s a massive Elder Scrolls system available, too.

Most of my Anduril observation is “these guys need air defense” (same for Saronic or Ursa Major, etc.), not “Coyote doesn’t deliver as promised”

A correction is really necessary.

I’ll make my own fair-minded criticisms, I can’t wear them like someone else’s cologne.

I think Anduril has some iron-clad fundamental assumptions about attritable systems in contemporary war and I’ve hit that on the podcast, bizarre to see this anti-take unfold.

I’m about to open Red Dust Rebellion

I’m not talking about The Office Monopoly

The “Field Commander” series is solitaire, light but fun,

They just launched a “Patton” version on Kickstarter.

The COIN games are exceptional but I’d put them higher on the learning curve

Pure solitaire?

“I, Napoleon” is extraordinary

There’s just not enough money in gaming to make this plausible
