That’s true for the old shit too. When I was on the Nimitz I did maintenance on a portion of the propulsion system. Literally anything more than basic maintenance or simple parts swapping was going to be done by a shipyard dockworker. Despite having the tools and technical knowledge we weren’t allowed. That thing is cold war tech.

The lack of a thigh holster is hopefully just a marketing art choice or something. I liked switching weapons in the 2 remake and admiring the animations, so smooth

You have an (alleged) history degree and you seriously think it was just one man on his own whim who sabotaged reconstruction?

Andrew Johnson took over after Lincoln's assassination, and sabotaged the Reconstruction efforts, causing the Jim Crow era of racial inequality of the next 100 years, and eventually leading to MAGA.

Americans did this. All of them collectively, not “one bad apple” you can shame and wave away the rest.

Even in a video game they give the woman shitty pants pockets, lol

Looks like some back pockets sewn on the front. Kind of looks like they’re on backwards. Is backward pants woke now?

There’s a lot of good brands out there and some real fucking stinkers.

Noodlers is owned by a literal Nazi.

Goulet Pens owners are members of a christian fundamentalist church and donate large amounts of money there, of course the church is anti LGBT. Think westboro baptist types.

Kaweco used bogus lawsuits and legal pressure to put a competitor out of business, but they were able to rebrand instead.

TWSBI has a known issue and material defect in their pens and continue to sell them despite the common cracking problem. Their solution is free replacement parts but you have to pay shipping and I find that to be bullshit.

The thing about closing the straight is that’s pretty much the top of the escalation ladder while the US has more options to pick from. Ultimately this makes the two sides look very unequal in responses because they are. Iran can’y jump straight to the top of their ladder, and they don’t have as many rungs to escalate on their side every time the US decides to escalate on theirs.

Doubt Biden was lucid enough to be aware of this. That’s just what the US military does. Endless planning, war-games, training, etc
