I had a hunch that the US Army was reluctant to kiss civilian leadership’s ass or to play any part in Operation Epic Fury, and now Hegseth’s sacking generals

If I were an English speaking nation adjacent to the US or a blue state governor looking to strengthen my negotiating position with Washington, DC, I would be salivating at the opportunity to pick up some top shelf retired officers to start bulking up my army / militia

EXCEPT all parties who would actually do this lack the imagination or temperament to start building up separatist militias / Canadian Foreign Legion

- Blue state governors still think they can ride this out until midterms / 2028 and then it’s business as usual angling for a presidential nomination
- Any general who is inclined to do a coup or do anything other than speaking gigs and book deals in early retirement is A-OK with what Hegseth’s doing and would not have been sacked

It’s time for America’s favorite game show, Leaked Claude Prompt or Zippy the Pinhead Quote

Yow!

What’s next in the pattern?

Has anyone seen old Sony audio equipment with a very dim LED backlight on the LCD front display? I want to know if this is a common problem before I start tearing apart this thing I got from the thrift shop #askfedi #sony

(I pulled the maintenance manual on it, it isn’t a VFD)
