Sorry for the radio silence. Of all the bad habits I’ve developed as an adult, sitting still and shutting up seems to be the worst of them. Everyone I know seems to be doing something, millions of somethings, all the time at a rate that I find terrifying. I used to be prolific as fuck.

People who complain and bitch and moan are like poisonous vultures. Everything thing in their life fails because they don’t do a god damned thing to change it.

Current: More troops commit suicide than die in... →
“The damage is far greater than the lists of casualties or cost in dollars. It permeates lifestyles. It infects cultures and people and worldviews. The war is never over for us. The fighting stops. The troops get called back. But the war goes on for those damaged by war.”
