  Sounds like hysteria though, with the way it’s written.

  The articles do not include the statement from our military saying that everything is normal. (But they do have the “here’s a bunch of scary stuff, we reached out but didn’t get a comment, story is breaking will update”)

  They include quotes that if you look carefully seem to fit both stories; there’s a crazy drone thing happening, and nothing out of the ordinary is happening.

  A warning about drones. A base closing for 4 hours. Things you expect to happen in day to day life, but also do a great job of freaking people out when you string the data points together just so.

  ---

  I had to dig to find how many drone incidents with military bases we’ve had per year. Because that isn’t common info. Really, really important information. The first thing you would report, probably.

  But it’s not in any of these articles lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Feds released close up pic of the drones!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I found two things about drones and military bases

  1. Drone spotting went viral and it led to reports of drones around military bases, freaking people out. However the military stated this is normal activity and that this stuff has been happening for years.

  2. Reports of drones over 17 bases near Chinese business owned farmland. A scary sounding story about communist China spying on our bases. But drones over / near bases isn’t rare and the army alone has like 100 bases in the country.

  And the military can shoot down and disable drones in their airspace. Apparently their main problem is things falling outside their jurisdiction and then local police being shit.

  I’m surprised to see ED brought up. They gave up console players and won’t even push token updates, like when they balanced engineers for PC players to reduce the crazy grinding. Tried to get back into it but I guess it’s now a legacy game and Frontier straight up bailed.

  The game isn’t shut down though. I can still buy their MTX stuff. That’s got to count against them.

  The first notes you hear after entering the castle are etched into my memory. Even when running the game later as an adult those notes can still affect me.

  In the lore they say god is good and make it clear that the god exists within history itself. The unraveling of events is god executing El Plan. So anything that happens is god, and god is good itself, so everything must actually be good in the end.

  And since the god explicitly gave the humans a mandate on their morality, they can’t just emulate the god literally. They have to act in their prescribed way, and trust in El Plan.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Live reaction to ICC ruling⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ignore Hamas. Read the infamous report from the US that was used by Israel as evidence they weren’t committing genocide. The report cleared Israel, and so it was used as a defense.

  But actually read the report.

  According to the US / Israel, they’re holding up food, making it difficult to access, making it get stuck in transit, making it get lost, making zero effort to facilitate / distribute, making it dangerous for people to solve it themselves, etc.

  But they never triggered the video game-like definition of genocide. They didn’t use god-like powers to absolutely withhold food. They didn’t declare “I’m doing a genocide.” Technically some people could eat sometimes, and some pencil pusher can’t change definitions on the fly, therefore no genocide.

  That’s the good version of what Israel is doing, as per their allies / their own mouth. Not genocide according to some definition, just genocide as everyone else would understand it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Live reaction to ICC ruling⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Who cares about being antisemitic?

  I’m a proud antisemite; I think Israel shouldn’t commit genocide.

  I am a huge sinophobe; I think uyghurs shouldn’t be “reeducated.”

  I fucking hate Canadians; first nations got screwed.

  I hate all Arabs and muslims; kashnoggi shouldn’t have been cut into pieces.

  I hate white people; we need to fix inequality.

  I’m a traitor to my country; I think it could be improved.

  I’m a devil worshipper; I like D&D.

  Ads have started to straight up break the internet for me. I can go to websites and they’ll complain about my ad blocker, and the only help I get is “disable your extensions.” I don’t even have any extensions! No ad block! But sites still curl up and die on me.

  Is it because my browser is hardened? Is it Linux? Do I have to fork over private data to use a site and if I don’t they pretend the issue is ad blockers?

  I’d recommend assassination, in Minecraft. If you’re leaving the server and everything is fucked then do one for the team and make some heads roll, in Minecraft. The right used violence and it led to the presidency. A coup was rewarded. Let’s take some notes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Many TV stations put a banner ad in the picture these days⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Look at the sports with systemic ad presence vs sports where it’s all “grass roots.” (The grass roots ones are mostly gone.)

  Most top sports are incredibly expensive to keep running and the ones that become infested with ads are the ones that stick around for us to enjoy. If you follow less popular sports you’ll consider yourself lucky to bring in ads.

  I can barely run steam and the games I bought on steam at the same time, which is required for most games. Steam disabled certain features and bloated the software – their launcher takes more resources than actual games. AAA games. (From a decade ago, but still.)

  Other launchers might be garbage but the bar seems to be pretty low. Only thing anyone can say is “get a better computer” because in their mind that is a great rebuttal to “why is a game tied to a launcher which takes up 4x as many resources as my entire OS?”

  I like the wasps around my house, they’re Apache wasps I think. I’ve shooed them away, worked next to them, they just watch me or fly around. Seems I need to really try to anger them.

  Mud daubers are cool too but their life cycle is nightmare fuel, I feel for the spiders.
