The US cattle herd gets larger & smaller on a pretty predictable 10-15 year cycle.

When there are more cows, that pushes cattle prices down.

When there are fewer cows, that pushes cattle prices up.

The laws of cattle supply & demand are simple & finite, any 4H girl would have known

All I can hear is Conga by Gloria Estefan

Lockheed Martin winning a billion dollar contract to produce "long-range, one-way, rocket-powered attack drones" but they're just making more ATACMS

"Let a man be whatever you like in peacetime, what occupation is there in which he can behave like that without getting a crack on the nose? He can only do that in the army."

There's a line in All Quiet on the Western Front when the soldiers are talking about the pointless cruelty of each rank toward subordinates and the line "the more insignificant a man has been in civil life the worse it takes him" made me think of Whiskey Pete like it was written about him

I am endlessly frustrated that the quality of 30-year-old rockets and 155mm shells didn't lead to "oh, we can comically produce and stockpile these!" and instead someone saw soldiers strapping mortar rounds and grenades to drones out of desperation and went "the future of warfare!"

The weird horse at DEN is valued at $2 million and the fact a billionaire could have one built and airlifted into the mountains/forests of every state without even considering the cost is so weird.
Something dumb I'd do with "fuck you" money is a rounding error

I'm not saying I'd read a Homestuck-length webcomic of Katt et. al. but I'm absolutely saying I would do that.

In another world, I would be exhaustively keeping up with your webcomic posted to a FFXIV forum somewhere like I did with various LoZ comics back when Nintendo had their own forums

My brother and I just deep fry it (with an Alton Brown fry derrick), with the bonus being the oven stays free all day. Honestly planning out everything to be ready at the same time is the real battle of Thanksgiving, and I actually do enjoy that planning but it's difficult with a pile of people
