  1. Older F250/350 looking good pulling a M777 around. Appears the UA had the good taste to paint over the former owner’s plumbing/whatever business logo:
  2. American crew in Ukraine. Russian mortars making for a long day at the office. Made my Monday look a little easier.
  3. Yeah and It’s an Armageddon and The Abyss mash-up that actually happened. Cameron could do a great job with it, really surprised he hasn’t done it already.
  4. I don’t know why Project Azorian hasn’t been made into a big budget movie. So many great themes: Cold War Covert ops Moonshot type of innovation/R&D Risky/huge physical forces involved Hughes cover story O&G driller cowboys Boat full of Russians / some bikinis Near disaster during execution Partial success Everybody lived (except the dead Russians we gave a ceremonial burial at sea to)
  5. I guess they adopt the NATO identifiers over their own even when it’s a pejorative.
  6. “Shelling” my ass. with what? 18” naval guns? Maybe Putin finally put ol’ Steven Segal in the game for an Under Siege reboot.

    Shit My Kid Says

    Don’t try to apply logic to this. She read it on the internet, it must be true. In prior years, she ran this all the way up the chain to a pediatric gastroenterologist (who knew that even existed), who told her to chill out and this isn’t a thing, but here we are.
  8. Saw the first fawn of the year yesterday. Couldn’t catch a pic but he was laid down between the protein feeder and the road. Lots more pregnant does around.
  9. “Corrosion X” for exterior rust and “Corrosion X for Guns” for interior/action rust and rust prevention have been the best performing long-term rust preventative I’ve used/seen. It’s a little expensive, but worth it IMO. Available on Amazon.
  10. These guys are making shit happen with that hydraulic fluid
  11. Graham has hates him some Russians. It’s interesting, I’d like to hear his mindset/backstory on it. He’s been all-in since the beginning.
  12. Yeah he’s jumped the shark, maybe intentionally entering the “old man yells at cloud” zone so that cooler heads can prevail while he keeps the crazy rants going to some how “save face” int their way. Solovyov is like Khrushchev banging his shoe on the podium like a clown and the rest of the folks know it’s time to “make a deal, wrap this up and get back to doing business with Europe”, as was said in the other state tv broadcast.
  13. Taliban has been watching the Ukes crush the Russian and Iranian tech and is feeling their Wheaties with their NATO gear.
  14. Solovyov is still delaminating, “nuke England, nuke the Gerald Ford, etc”. Seemingly more and firmer dissenting voices. I’m actually surprised one of the guests didn’t call him out on his hypersonic missiles are the solution statement. The silence was palpable though. They all know they’re fucked.
  15. More from the Prigozhin rant:
  16. This dude is really classing up the joint with his Sauer 100.
  17. Kicking the counteroffensive off in a serious way over a US holiday weekend would be good for publicity and the political capital that follows.
  18. That Prigozhin is saying that today is indicative that they still have no fucking strategy in this conflict AT ALL. They LITERALLY still can’t decide if this is a squabble amongst neighbors or axe murder.
  19. Another good Prigozhin rant today, this is like a Dave Chappell sketch:
  20. Jive video collection / side by side comparison of the first Chechen war to current Ukraine war:
  21. African lions are the exception and eat they’re prey alive frequently, starting from the back and just wildly brutal. It’s like they’d prefer to listen to the thing squeal as they’re gnawing on it. I did once see a tables-turned scenario where a bull Cape Buffalo came up on a den of lion cubs, and he promptly ground them all into the dirt until they stopped moving. A guy once wrote he never saw a wild thing sorry for itself, but I think it’s also true that wild thinks don’t give a fuck about feelings.
  22. Today has been a crazy day, like can’t make this shit up crazy. Piling on, Solovyov reportedly has two American kids:
