"It doesn't matter what you do you will always be a man/woman to me" type motherfuckers are out here actively giving themselves dysentery drinking out of filthy mud puddles because the glass can't "fool" them they know what it REALLY is.

The best place to put extra food is in a friend's belly.
The best place to put your skills is in your friend's mind.
The best fires warm every set of hands.
Communities are made of the things we make them. So go be the things you want to see. Feed people. Teach. Share skills. Build your world.

Went in the woods, taught a bunch of shooting lessons. Got to shoot some myself. Plus, it's winter, so we threw down a campfire for folks who weren't on the line. Got many folks their first shots on a shotgun and first time with a revolver.
Today was a good fucking day. I hope it portends my year.

Take small actions, like building up skills, finding your affinity group, and doing what you can to keep your community safe.
Don't be paralyzed by the difference in scale between you and the fascist machine.
Your efforts matter to the people you're looking at.

You made it this far. You'll make it farther still. Keep your head down and focus on the steps in front of you rather than worrying about the end of the path. Keep building the shit that matters and reinforcing it from everything else.
No way out but forward.
And oh can we march.

It should be noted I am the type to bring a supermodel home in order to show her my special interests and then be confused when she leaves instead of interacting with them because she thought we were here for sex and I'm here for archaic caliber conversions. I might not be the best judge. But still.

So, this was near universally applauded as a "fucks."
And y'all got this one wrong, at least to me. It's neat, there's cool concepts, but it's got too many gizmos, too little application. It worked for a specific style of combat ... which paratroopers had mostly moved past, making it semi useless.

Hi there, and welcome to #FridayFucksorSucks, a weekly game with simple rules.

Two possible things are happening:
They are banking on AI models making the next generation of movies as 'slop.' This is more likely. OR Netflix wants to change theaters back into "old run" and "new run" theaters. Less likely but given Netflix owns PILES of rights to movies not entirely impossible.
