Sigh

I have been an Ohio State fan long enough to know that this run of awesomeness will not lost

But

I'm SO happy with them right now

And my XO is also an OSU fan, so we at least will either both be irritable or both be happy on drill weekends
Ugh,*last
And for everyone going "noooo, how could you, OSU is evil"

1) I don't give a damn

2) it's in my blood. Brown Hall was named after a relative. Grandpa went there and he followed the games when overseas during WWII. This, with a schedule on the back, was in his papers from 1943

Well

Twitter

We had a good run

But someone put Peter Jackson's so-called "The Lord of the Rings" on streaming services

And it's time for you all to know just how much they anger me

I fully expect a barrage of unfollows

Regardless

Truth must be told

Roll tape
Ok, I'll give you that it's a straight up visual spectacle of grandeur

But

So is this cat
C'mon, Pete, just throwing the Ring to Gollum without explaining the change from Smeagol is basically like wiping out THE WHOLE THING THE RING DOES WHICH IS PERVERT THAT WHICH IS GOOD

My great great great grandmother, who stood at the front second story window of the family home in Ohio with a pot of boiling water when Kentucky militia riders were riding up the road to search for the runaway slaves that her family was helping the Underground Railroad hide
Unfortunately, this is all I know about the brave woman from Brown County, OH - who, incidentally, was the mother of Prof Christopher N Brown, for whom Brown Hall at the @OhioState University was named for
Getting a little closer, digging through the folders. Her maiden name was Catherine Rogers - her brother John is pictured here. She married Isaac Brown

Going over regimental award recommendations from WWI today

And to all those who grumble, "I bet those guys in WWI and WWII didn't have to type up memos with proper spacing, and qualitative/quantifiable comments"

Well

THEY DID

On TYPEWRITERS

So STFU & write better
Also, the French Croix de Guerre citations are just so much better in their wordsmithing

"Showed utter contempt for danger"

"Contributed to the repulse of the enemy"

"Displayed courage and boldness"
There's something about reading names from 100 years ago. In and of itself, reading the scripts and writing brings you through time to live momentarily with that person. You are brought into an intimate connection with that person or persons, that it is hard to express

Ohio State reviewing financial donations it received from Jeffrey Epstein daytondailynews.com/news/ohio-stat…
Ohio State University is reviewing donations it received from Jeffrey Epstein and affiliated entities, including $2.5 million contributed in May 2007 just four months before Epstein was indicted on federal charges in a child sex case.
“In light of recent news surrounding Jeffrey Epstein, Ohio State initiated a review of gifts and donations. Preliminary findings show that the university has received one gift from Epstein and one gift from an affiliated foundation,” the university said

@EleanorRylance
Right, we have 5 weeks of this campaign the #EUelections2019.

The @Libdems have the members, deliverers, structure, staffing and candidates to stand full lists in every region.

They have been utterly anti-brexit since the very beginning of this sorry episode. 1/
@LibDems The Greens initially back the referendum result, before switching ostensibly to Remain in 2017.
It’s not clear to me that they have the full buy-in of members and voters to remain in the EU that the Libdems do, although even the LDs have people who support Leave. 2/
@LibDems The Chuks didn’t even have a political party to float until Friday. Word is they have emailed everybody on their email list to pitch around for candidates. Quality of these candidates will not necessarily be as rigorous as it should. 3/

John Minford, #SunTzu 5: 28 "This is all a matter of forms and dispositions."
Two armies meet. They're in sloping lowlands, at the foot hills rising to the East. It is the still-twilit moment before the Sun's rays crest. Your army has the advantage, marching North on high ground. Your enemy is marching South lower down.
Just as the sun's light starts to glint off your enemy's armor, you give the order for the flags and drums to aim straight at the enemy in still controlled quick time. You will not let the enemy escape. Not wise enough to know he's already defeated, their general orders charge.

Far Left Hate Watch ❌
@FarLeftHate
Why does Twitter deliberately target Right-wing accounts for Shadow-banning and why it will sooner rather than later completely back-fire and why they are ultimately going to destroy the Left and what a great day that will be. Thread. 1/15
It is no surprise Twitter targets accounts for “wrong think” or as we on the #Right like to call it “free-think” this is because of two events which are now totally and utterly inextricably linked, #Brexit and #Trump and the Establishment have been rocked to the core. 2/15
Neither of which were supposed to happen & yet they did now the Establishment is determined never to allow it to happen again or even at all, the reason for them happening was nothing to do with social media, but was to do with people knocking on doors and persuading others. 3/15
