Midnight Meme Of The Day!
*by Noah President Horseshit:* They say (or should I say "people are saying") that periods of great stress cause an increase in great artistic works. Artists get a little extra inspired by what they see. They need only to choose how they are going to make an artistic statement. In the world of sculpture, artists use a lot of different mediums for their work. Some use clay. Some use marble. Some use various resins. But to use horseshit, now that is commendable! Just the smell and the "messiness" would be a non-starter or at least daunting to anyone but the most dedicated and ins... more »

Why The Military-Industrial Complex Is Hyping Up Future Weapons
*James Holmes* *Security, * They won't be here for a while. Beware of minor word choices when interacting with representatives of the military-industrial complex. Syntax can shape or misshape deliberations about strategy, force design, or budgeteering. Something as simple as speaking about some potential future capability or widget in the present tense can mislead. Such phrasing implies that the capability or widget already exists, that engineers have vetted the technology under real-world circumstances, and that acquiring it involves little risk. The upshot: it constitutes a wor... more »

Russia's Gun Trucks Are Ready To Send Insurgents Running
