Rough vibes on this website today, likely because people feel Hopeless and Helpless Because Can't Stop It and No One Who Is Supposed To Is Trying To So Now We're Fighting Each Other™. I recommend activities such as book, or potentially instrument if you like instrument, or even do talk on phone.

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad.
The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

Lotta feelings, but foremost, a deep anger that our government claims both that it can use domestic law to target anyone in the world, but denies that the children of immigrants are US citizens. "Binds but does not protect," on a global scale.

Im seeing discussions about consultations with congress, authorizations of force etc. I have to say this transcends any of what I would call sub constitutional technicalities. The president has gone to war with a foreign power and, it seems, kidnapped a foreign head of state on the basis of nothing.

for example: you could easily *imagine* a pac man with a hand painted screen for every combination of pac and ghost and dot states and positions. using sprites for it is just a proceduralization of that ideal.

I have said this before, I will say this again: arming the Ukrainians to defend themselves is the best bang-for-buck in defense spending in decades.
Give Ukraine munitions and they will reliably put those explosives on America's enemies.
Just not on Trump's enemies and thus the problem.

If you let corruption fester then it creates a very bad incentive structure in which anyone who isn't corrupt is a sucker and once everyone is corrupt, everyone is guilty, and enforcement of anti-corruption laws simply becomes a mechanism for punishing anyone who falls from favor

First of all, I'd like to apologize to the North Korean military. I might have said some things that were projection in hindsight...

So a very large ship that would be very expensive but without VLS cells, it wouldn't have any weapons that would actually be able to defend itself or engage the enemy.
Like, I can't stress that enough: the VLS system is like, 90% of an Arleigh Burke's firepower.
