HF radio and HFDF are my areas of expertise

Amateur radio is my hobby

Japanese aesthetics and folklore, Haruki Murakami, and a nice cup of matcha are my jams

Rush is the soundtrack of my life

Got my tickets to the Rush: Fifty Something tour.

It will be over 35 years since I last saw them, having missed them on the R40 tour. While it won't be the same without Neil, I am excited nonetheless.

Great post from ‪@johnpavlovitz.bsky.social‬ on the missing 2A advocates who cried wolf about the government to justify their gun fetish, but who prove to be nothing more than weaklings cosplaying as patriots.

33 years ago I got married.

20 years ago I left Navy service.

19 months ago I retired and moved from the East Coast to Colorado.

All substantial changes that rank among the very best decisions I have ever made.

I'm probably late to the party, but it is interesting that the US Department of Defense website (www.defense.gov) now redirects to the US Department of War (www.war.gov).

"An official website of the United States Government" redirects to a made up, informal "nickname" of the Department.

Shame!

I bet there are a lot of American evangelical "Christians" who are frantically checking their Facebook feeds this morning to make sure that they weren't "left behind."

It truly was an embarrassing day for America and all Americans.

“This man is stark, raving mad. Do Americans not see how embarrassing this is?”

Pro-2A LARPers continue to simply stand by while The Regime and its allies flush the US Constitution down their shit-stained, faux-gold leaf plated toilets.

Further proof that it never was about protecting against government overreach; it was about cosplaying "toughness."
