Less soldiers equals less wars, it's a simple numbers game.

You underestimate Republican willingness to fight wars with low/no oversight civilian contractors.

Daily reminder that it's always a good idea to tweet Trump with messages like "why aren't your ideas as good as <insert scumbag here>?"

Get them in the habit of tearing each other apart and we can keep them occupied for most of the next 4y.

Who needs public schools when we can replace them with income based vouchers to allow parents to send their kids to private religious schools?

The Trump admin is about to hand out trillions of dollars of public money to friends and donors. If the deficit doesn't quadruple over Trump's previous administration I'll be surprised

It's always been a veneer over the drive to deny public spending that would benefit poor, brown or non Christians

I agree in principle but abolishing it under a Republican administration is a recipe for tens of trillions handed out to Republican allies with the bill left to the next Democrat admin to clean up. I'd rather we didn't do this right now, it's almost guaranteed to lead to absurdly corrupt and wasteful spending that could otherwise fund social programs we desperately need (like single payer healthcare) during a less corrupt administration.

Four and a half kilos of carbohydrates and sugars, goddamn.

Yeah, like I mentioned I didn't have the exact behavior in memory.

A second Ring of Wealth can contribute no more than 2 levels (i.e. a +1 ring) when calculating wealth bonus for dropped equipment equips. This is to prevent it being possible to endlessly increase Ring of Wealth level by farming pairs of high level Rings of Wealth.

Yup, this is the way. My e-reader weighs less than my phone and is about 1/4th the size of a hardback or trade paperback with the cover or a protective sleeve. It's a game changer for travel, commuting, waiting time before appointments, etc.

I've read 200+ books in the span of time I might have read 20 if I had to throw an actual book in my bag on the way out the door.

Ring of Wealth stacking is capped at +1 for the lowest ring IIRC, otherwise you could infinitely upgrade by farming for a better RoW drop.

I haven't looked at this for a while but I think a +5 and any lower ring is equivalent to a +6

I rarely turn the sound on for video content on social media, the audio track is very rarely worthwhile

The best we can do is a 4th straight year of record profits

My available reading time fell off a cliff earlier this year and I haven't had much of a chance to keep up with new work. What really stood out to you this year?

Books, novellas, short fiction - anything goes, I'd love to hear about your favorites
