and replacing all those missiles and making drones. Almost like they didn't plan eh?

On strike and telling Congress to impeach the entire cabinet now,

We’re ready.

That too when this is the state of things:



Life in America is hard in a different way than it is over here in the global south. One reason I am pushing back that style of “development” that I saw encroach here with a criminal lawsuit is, if we have both our organic shittiness and the imported kind, sold as “growth”, that is not viable.

And over there exploitation results in civil lawsuits. This one will be a criminal lawsuit targeting the ceo and managerial class..greed sends you to prison not celluloid must be the message.

Times change..new kinds of people like me start entering the fray formally and let’s see..

One reason I am aborting a 14 year nightmare that will destroy the Indian middleclass while forcing on all the sort of worthless trash the tech industry forced for years but in this case in its most ott form, is that the world is so complex now,

This was largely entirely malicious and cultish or unpardonably stupid and lacking in self awareness or honesty among the average people who enthusiastically signed up. A few overworked truly elite people like my onc aside, there is no excuse for these other people as mediocre as I am who are Indian, female etc lacking at least the common sense I have and then bullying their way ahead, while lying their asses off. I have forgiven a handful. The rest can suck it.

But more importantly once more of these greedy, climbing, innately sleazy and undemocratic types pile on and mire badly off people, it will again be this fraudulent bullying dynamic where these asshole criminals having tricked many low income or desperate people into this race to the bottom (and one without one fucking real product, service or science that is not a pseudoscience and extortionately) will try to break me again into formally accepting it.
Fuck that…criminal lawsuit and no turning back.

Trump sure knows how to bankrupt things. It’s like the scene in Goodfellas where they gut the restaurant business and when there’s nothing left to steal, they torch it.

Also, what the everloving fuck is a fruit basket stand?

Guess us plebs don't know about "fancy" things that the hoi polloi use.

I think we're the serfs. 😒

with fruit baskets, violins, and Alaska king crab.

...our $100,000 Steinway while they eat all that King Crab....

right now his pants are so tight that he walks like he took a skateboard right into his dingdong.

his nuts? I watch it several times a day.

they spent all the 93 billion on musical instruments. Give them to the world so man kind can make music instead of war. Silly me...what am I thinking.

This indicated that roughly $70 billion or so (if DoD spent somewhat the same month to month)) would have been expected to have been spent for "normal" items.

Then there is the federal habit (not confined to DoD) of "use it or lose it" ((in following budgets)) near/at fiscal year-end.

This DOES indicate a probable year-end spike in "spending" beyond "spiked normal" in September 2025.

I won't post the link because...

AI-oversigt
"In 1998, a Pentagon audit revealed the Department of Defense paid roughly $76 each for small aircraft set screws that cost about 57 cents, due to poor procurement practices, specialized handling, and outdated, single-supplier listing. These highly inflated prices stemmed from inefficient bureaucracy, rather than actual material value."

When I was in the Air Force, September was the time to order pretty much anything we wanted - or thought you might want - before the end of the fiscal year when funds ran out. The attitude was (and obviously, still is), that if you didn't spend every penny in your budget for this year, you didn't need that much and the following year you might see a budget cut, so you spent like there was no tomorrow.

Very wasteful then, and even more now, but it's been going on for as long as I can remember.
