XO of all Things

Small Wars for the Marines. For the rest of us it’s imperial policing.

Nine years ago, I looked at Ginger and announced 'now modeling the JC Penney Hausfrau collection...'

Reader, I am still being punished for my moment of idiocy.

'War is politics by other means.'

I am just one new notebook away from total organization and efficiency, ADHD be damned.

Rule the first: primer. Not paint & primer, but primer. Krylon is fine, but you gotta prime.
Rule the second: superglue works great. The Loctite brand gel is what I use for ease of application. Other wise I would glue my finger’s together.

Summer weekend uniform of shorts and sci-fi/horror/fantasy themed t shirt. I also have the most powerful dad shoes ever on: ancient, paint splattered, and grass stained Nike killshots.

Welcome to the party. I can suggest a wide variety of paints.

I’m a fed and I carry one as little as possible.

Reasons:
1) They tear up suits.
2) They’re fucking heavy.
3) Everyday shit gets more complicated.
4) I’m the Service CoS FFS. Most dangerous part of my day is the morning commute.
5) Very few situations are improved by introducing guns.

This.

The MAGA cult (ure) has made me a worse person.

I’m looking forward to the post Trump era collaboration trials.

This is completely fucked up bullshit. This is hate for hate’s sake.

The 9th ID rides again!

Y’all deserve a picture of Snax and Bruticus cuddling. Good job this week y’all!

Now do Ted Cruz.

You’re wearing crocs right now, aren’t you.

Why do all of these dumbshits name their grifting ass companies after cool Tolkien stuff?

Thanks, I hate it.

And what violation of 18USC did they commit?

Bob Seger has already addressed the issue of going to Denver.

Remember kids: paras tab, commandos yomp.

The Falklands chapter in Joe Alexander’s ‘Sea Soldiers in the Cold War’ is a pretty good overview.

List of books about the Falkland’s War.

As promised, a shelfie of my small collection of Falklands War books.

One of the Brigade staff officers wrote that they couldn’t even find dry paper to write orders on.

I’ll take a shelfie of my Falklands books tonight and share with the class.

I remain convinced that the Falklands remains the most relevant campaign to understand our most likely PRC conflicts.
Peer/near peer expeditionary fight with log stretched to the breaking point from day one? Seem about right.

We have a lot of crabs to eat.

Are you disrespecting Micronauts?

First of all, how dare you?
Second, Micronauts were awesome.
Third, it was part of a great era for Marvel—Micronauts, Shogun Warriors, Rom the Space Knight!
