I’m not cut out for military. I’d sooner resign than be summoned in this way


A difference with too little distinction


I can’t resist the feeling he’s self destructing deliberately.


Maybe. Hard to say what would have worked at this point, without sounding like we were caught by Scooby Doo. “It would have worked too, if it weren’t for you meddling oligarchs!” Rome tried reforms too, but it was too late.


Hundy p. Aside from the sanity-thin norms holding back the American empire from pure naked tyranny, the whole thing was built on slaves and stolen land, and still is through the 13th amendment.
I was one of the kids who was raised to an ideal of inclusivity and egalitarianism that has never existed in the real America. I left, and now find myself an immigrant from a place that doesn’t seem to exist. Sometimes I feel like a cryptid or something.

That was always one of the main goals. They’d rather light a mountain of cash on fire than give anyone a thriving wage


It’s a hard one to gauge for me. I’m pretty sure I found it via stumbleupon back when that was really great. I read the whole thing in close to one go, and I never hear anyone else talk about it.


High five, fuck yes. Cool person detected. I think you’re the first one to spot it, too.
I wish I had that series in print. Might be time to look into that


My god, it’s unstoppable


He’s such scum that he makes me judge Harvey Weinstein more harshly by association
I’m sure they are hyped, delighted, and filled with espirit de corps about all of this.
