Text of the page (random words):
at stink won t go away we have comrade trump and pete hegseth to directly blame for this but it s not only the fault of those fuckwits we elected trump you and i may not have voted for him but there s no escaping the fact that we as a nation elected him a second time knowing exactly who and what he is we elected him and again that stink won t go away obviously starting a war with iran was massively stupid in the first place hell starting a war with any nation instead of using the soft power of diplomacy is massively stupid but jesus suffering fuck if you re stupid enough to start a war at the very least you need to make sure you have a solid practical plan to win it at the very least make sure you have clear objectives that are attainable militarily at the very least make sure you have a plan for after you ve achieved those objectives at the very fucking least make sure you can justify the war to the families and friends of the troops who ll die in it but all that would require professional military leaders we don t have many of those left pete hegseth saw to that there s never been a secretary of defense so blatantly unqualified to hold that post as pete hegseth a long history of serious alcohol abuse should have been enough to disqualify him a repeated history of fiscal mismanagement of both concerned veterans for america and vets for freedom should have been enough to disqualify him a history of marital infidelity and sexual abuse of women including an accusation of rape that was derailed by a financial settlement with the accuser should have been enough to disqualify him his lack of military leadership experience should have been enough to disqualify him hell his arrogant and offensive personality should have been enough to disqualify him how can the us lose a war against iran put this bonehead in charge but no trump wanted him and maga gives trump whatever he wants hegseth is the only secretary of defense whose approval to the position required a tie breaking vote by the vice president no democrat voted for him only three republicans opposed him hegseth proceeded to recreate the military in his own image white male arrogant reckless careless vindictive testosterone poisoned extreme christianist and deeply deeply stupid he and trump approached iran like schoolyard bullies and iran kicked sand in our face the united states is weaker now weaker in almost every respect our international reputation is shit our military has been effectively embarrassed our economy is in shambles any claim the us ever had to moral ethical leadership is now as dead as marley s ghost like i said at the beginning this is humiliating and assuming this nation survives trump and his maga lemmings maybe that s a good thing our only hope to regaining a place in civilized international society is to learn a little humility we can t just insist we re great we need to aim at just being decent and hope we can make it so posted in uncategorized 2 replies doesn t really matter posted on april 29 2026 by greg 4 i generally think conspiratorial thought process are the province of cranks and folks who watch too much television so i find it sort of alarming when people i know to be thoughtful intelligent reasonable and logical start suggesting that the recent incident at the white house correspondents dinner was staged i understand some of the reasons they feel that way let s face it it was a weird and improbable event in itself much of the apparent weirdness is compounded by the fact that most folks don t really understand how perimeter security works or how difficult it is to shoot a moving target there s no reason they should have an understanding of those things but a little clarity might help the moment allen cole ran through the security magnetometer people keep asking how cole allen i don t know why everybody keeps calling him the shooter since even the secret service agrees he never fired a shot got through so many security personnel why they ask weren t the security staff paying more attention and how did the secret service officer firing his weapon at cole allen miss him here s why the security staff wasn t paying more attention their job was done once all the invited guests had been cleared and admitted into the ballroom where the dinner was taking place one level below the checkpoint where allen was stopped the ballroom was made secure the ballroom doors were closed and guarded as were the elevators stairs and escalators leading to that level at that point the duty of security had been passed to a different team perimeter security is relaxed and the physical apparatus can be dismantled it just saves time the fact is staff aren t very concerned about intruders because there s no place an intruder can go when cole allen scooted through the magnetometer he only succeeded in boxing himself in how did the secret service officer manage to fire at least four times at a target only a few feet away from him and miss i blame this on television which gives viewers a wildly unrealistic understanding of firearms and shooting hitting a moving target with a handgun is hard even with training the faster the target is moving the harder it becomes and cole allen was fast toss in the stress and adrenaline produced by an event of this kind and it becomes harder still most often you end up firing at a space the target occupied a fraction of a second earlier it s not all that surprising that the officer missed well missed cole allen anyway it seems likely he accidentally tagged one of his fellow officers but that misunderstanding of how the world actually works is just part of the reason folks are leaning toward the belief that the incident was staged another reason is that nobody trusts the current administration to tell the truth about anything representative democracy depends in large part on the assumption that 1 the government use of power is legitimate and 2 the citizenry can generally rely on the government to be consistent and relatively honest neither of those assumptions apply anymore it s not just that everybody in the trump administration lies or that there s no penalty for lying or even that they don t care if everybody knows they re lying down at the bone the consistent pervasive ubiquitous lying erodes the very concept of truth or shared reality for a lot of folks what actually happened at the whcd doesn t matter as much as what they believe might have happened posted in comrade trump despicable behavior general asshattery stuff that s just fucking stupid stupid fucking people what the actual fuck 4 replies thisness and whatness and something more posted on april 21 2026 by greg 6 i find i m less and less interested in photographing stuff by stuff i mean things objects including people back in the late 1980s william eggleston declared i am at war with the obvious i m not at war with it i m just no longer interested in it when you photograph things and it doesn t really matter what that thing is you re basically saying this is important this thing this object this building this person this whatever it s an acknowledgment that this very specific individual thing is worth your attention almost all photography is about this i ve spent most of my life photographing this look at this this is how i see this there s a term for that the thisness of things haecceity yeah it looks like i just chucked a bunch of vowels and consonants into a jar and shook them up but it s an actual word by the way it s pronounced hek see ity i know you re wondering about that it refers to the unique irreducible often undefinable properties and aspects of a thing that distinguishes it from all other similar things it s what makes each identical twin an individual it s what makes your dog special it s what makes that elm tree distinct from all other elm trees it s the dings and dents and scars of life that makes this different from all of that it s the thisness of a thing if you re interested in learning more about the concept of haecceity do a search on john duns scotus the 13th century franciscan friar who put it together i considered adding some of that in his post but decided i d rather pound a nail through my foot my specific individual foot much maybe most photography is an attempt to capture the haecceity of a thing every photograph of say a flower is an attempt to reveal the beauty of that specific individual flower every photograph of a water tower or a puppy or a pickup truck or a pair of old boots is an attempt to say this puppy or this boot is unique and special and is worthy of my attention and let s face it most of those attempts fail instead of capturing the haecceity of the thing we more often capture the quiddity of the thing yes quiddity is also a real word it refers to the qualities and properties a thing shares with others of its kind that photograph of the puppy or the boot is more likely to reveal a sense of puppyness or bootness it s the whatness of the thing the thing that makes it a puppy or a boot that s not a criticism depicting the essence of puppyness or bootness can be captivating people familiar with that specific puppy or that particular boot may recognize it as an individual but a lot of folks will look at your photograph of a puppy or an old boot and think yeah now that is what i call a boot right there which is another way of saying they appreciate its bootness i began this by saying i m less and less interested in photographing stuff these days i m less interested in the thisness or the whatness of things i still shoot those photos of course it s most of what i shoot but for the last few years i find myself trying to photograph something less tangible and i m not even sure i know how to describe it i want to photograph i don t know moods states of mind an ambiance maybe a feeling i want to shoot photos that can express a sense of what it s like to be there yesterday on bluesky i posted this photograph it s not about the haecceity of the dog who was a wonderfully irreducible and highly individual dog named luka or his quiddity although there was a lot of dogness going on with luka or the guy or the street or the city it s not about any thing i want it to be about being up early on a wet chilly morning bringing take home breakfast back to your apartment while gainfully employed people pass by isolated in their cars trying to get to work on time i want it to be about the dampness of the air and the noise and smell of traffic and the softer sound of a dog s feet on cement i want it to be about two beings who care for each other and are comfortable in their companionship even though they re of different species i want it to be about all of those things but that s a lot to cram into a photograph and i don t feel like i succeeded it s not quite there not quite what i want it to be but i like to think i m getting closer posted in confessional crap photography 6 replies cinematic epistemology posted on april 4 2026 by greg 1 it s pretty clear that the main actors in the war against iran are operating under a system of cinematic epistemology i m talking about comrade president trump the secretary of what used to be the department of defense pete hegseth and the entirety of comrade trump s cabinet of nazgûl cinematic epistemology is a term coined by julian sanchez basically epistemology is the study of how we know what we know how we achieve an understanding of how the world works cinematic epistemology is an understanding of the world grounded in movies it s naive of course love in real life doesn t work out the way it does in a rom com criminal investigations aren t done they way they re depicted in television cop shows wars aren t fought and won they way they are in action films but that s exactly how trump and hegseth viewed their assault on iran send in the air force bomb the absolute shit out of a bunch of targets let hegseth make a few movie speeches accompanied by manly hand gestures let trump threaten our enemies and mock our allies intimidate the nation into submission surely once our allies saw our overwhelming military might they d wish they d been a part of the war surely once iran saw they were up against a vastly superior military force they d quickly give in trumpco knew it would take longer than a movie screening but in their minds the outcome was pretty much guaranteed punch iran in the face take the fight out of them roll credits it didn t help that it largely did work like that in venezuela that quick limited precise military operation only solidified their cinematic world view trump on fox news even said i watched it literally like i was watching a television show if you would ve seen the speed the violence it was an amazing thing but iran isn t venezuela everybody knew iran would hit back well everybody but the folks encouraging trump to attack iran iran predictably did hit back they hit everybody in the region who d who d cooperated with the us trump and his people were surprised they weren t supposed to go after all these other countries in the middle east trump said nobody expected that we were shocked he went on to say nobody nobody no no no no the greatest experts nobody thought they were going to hit the actual experts of course knew iran would hit back actual experts assumed iran would close the strait of hormuz the actual experts understood the international scope of a shooting war involving iran the actual experts realized a war in iran could would lead to a global energy crisis that could would result in fuel and food shortages in the us and possibly a global recession the problem with actual experts is that the trump administration got rid of them trumpco of course doesn t know what to do now hegseth apparently wants to keep bombing hoping somehow that just a few more bombs will make all the difference trump is bored with the movie
