Don't get Ukraine. We must secure a cleansing blow. Against the far right. There is no greater plight. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/2569 ══════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────────── @user-1289 I've made that mistake before. It's an easy trap to fall into. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/2570 ══════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────────── ┌───────────────────────────┐ │ CW: re: frontline-tactics │ └───────────────────────────┘ when leap-frogging, have each person use different ranged weapons. Then, as you come to each sight-line intersection, choose who goes first based on the size of the sight-line you're approaching. less important in a place like a suburb because the sight-lines are pretty similar. more important in a city or the country, where there are plenty of long-range lines of sight. also, keep in mind that the garages of suburban dads are like goldmines for the future backlines. So try not to blow them up. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/2571 ══════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────────── ┌───────────────────────┐ │ CW: weapons-mentioned │ └───────────────────────┘ it's often better to take two knives to a knife fight than a gun to a knife fight ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/2572 ══════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────────── ┌────────────────────────────┐ │ CW: how-to-gather-a-suburb │ └────────────────────────────┘ two people riding on bikes down each and every street in a city the first, blowing a whistle the second, 5-10 seconds later with a megaphone "people of the city, we have come with a mission. please report to your nearest grocery store" will probably have to ride past a few times maybe with some more clarifying lines and allies on speed-dial, one button press away ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/2573 ══════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────────── ┌──────────────────────┐ │ CW: physical-health │ └──────────────────────┘ ... zzz ZZZ zzz ... my hip hurts. noticed I was limping about halfway through the night. eh, well, it'll get better.
