My daughter went to All-State a couple years, proud Dad here... Our state does The Battle Hymn of the Republic every year, it'll melt your feels.

This middle-aged Marine says “GAT-DAMN this is the dude whose shoulders I was standing on.” MAN I love some gung-go shit before I go to bed.

Edit: Fuck Apple for not autospelling gung-ho.

Second the Peterson and doing easy stuff like, no shit, drinking more water and taking some vitamin d and b. Much love, God forgives all, even me. Even you.

So am I too old to re-up as a guardian? I got a bachelors and a masters since I was a 20-something Sergeant of Marines. I wanna be an officer of Guardians, swap the humvee for a spaceship and use my TD.win cybercriminaling weaponized autism for GEOTUS. No joke. This would make my life.

And even our allies can’t fly over with the airspace treaty to see our movements. Remember we expired that recently?

I'm still skeptical of a lot of stuff, as we all should be... But I indulged in a little "no way" acronym comparison between "Nothing Can Stop What Is Coming" and "National Council of Statewide Interoperability Coordinators." If I summarize correctly, it looks like they've been installing and building a nationwide communications network for a couple years in case the whole modern grid goes down - so the cops, firefighters, and medics can still talk. This is EXACTLY what I would have if I were them.

We had a freak straight-line, mid-continent hurricane in Iowa this year, a "Derecho." Power was out for a week, internet was out for two. Cell phone tower was out, had to drive two miles for a 'sweet spot' to call work to check in...

My son played outside. Neighbors helped neighbors clean up or cut up trees. We grilled neighborhood dinners. I let my neighbor plug his fridge into my generator so his food didn't spoil.

It was beautiful and amazing.

Also, my roof was screwed. And all 4 sides of my house's siding.... but 3 months without internet would be a good thing.

Someone called Australia "Great Britain's Texas" the other day. I laughed. I'm a pretty big fan of Colin Hay. https://www.pastemagazine.com/music/colin-hay/colin-hay-prison-time/

I'm sure she does a TON of prep beforehand, they're always so well produced. I'm not sure it's in her schedule, but it'd sure hit the spot!

After a long day of cybercriminaling and revealing so many avenues of fraud and shenanigans, I get anxious... I gotta say, Leigh calms me down with her articulation and super-brainpower.

Word up!! I started 2531 but they changed the numbers on me halfway. I’d have real coffee going out in the stumps, even the CO would come grab a cup. Good times.

I'm not yet willing to throw the quadrillions thing away, I don't think they'd put that in there lightly... I think the analysis this guy did was included, and he's pretty into math.

I think the beautiful thing about it was that all those man hours were done by thousands and thousands of volunteer patriots. I can't even imagine the data collection, software development, web and marketing initiatives on multiple different vectors that was going on RIGHT HERE on this site. "We'll do the NYT feed irregularity." "Okay, we got dead voters, somebody grab PO Boxes!" It was amazing. Not sure which initiatives made it to the cases, but I saw some legit volunteerism that made me proud in such a troubling time.
