Only four of the seventeen warthunder leaks have been about American equipment (and one manual for the export model of the F-15E (that IIRC was specifically the Saudi version? It was a whole thing at one point)).

It seems likely that this meme is a reference to how fucking notoriously US diplomatic staff in china absolutely cannot keep it in their pants (note that it's specifically about staff in china, we're the ones crossing the borders here). I dunno, this doesn't seem like "blaming foreigners" when it's such a problem there has to be a public policy to combat dipshit american diplomats falling for it.

I can't not appreciate a good Simpsons reference.

it was a very good year

I don't get it. Like I'm a slut too, but I've never considered talking about work with people I'm sleeping with in a foreign country, even if it's not defense work.

[–] Warl0k3@lemmy.world 24 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

You should see some of my DMs - if they're horny enough, people will say anything to keep an attractive person interested in talking to them.

Hey defense nerds! If you have information about the specific makeup of current-gen Chobham armor, I will 100% fly to you and let you pound my ass in exchange for it (been curious about that one for years now, warthunder has been disappointingly unforthcoming...)

(side note: 98% of my interactions on lemmy have been great, but wow that 2%)

Tbf 98% of my interactions on reddit have been bad and rest 2% were worse.

[–] Warl0k3@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Oh yeah, the only fun parts of reddit were the few friends I made and the mountain of horror stories I collected. Lemmy is so so much better right now, my god.

That brings back memories of some of the unhinged comments I would get when I posted nudes on a different site (not why I stopped, I just don't really have a good place to post for sapphic focused content rn). I guess I've just always known I'm desirable enough to keep people I'm interested in talking to me and to understand that while other internet exhibitionists may very much enjoy chatting, rping, and other fun stuff it's inherently casual and the best way to keep getting attention is to figure out what the person I'm chatting with is hoping to get out of it (usually interesting conversation involving effort).

To summarize: the naked lady on the internet is not going to date you, but you can have fun with it. Don't make it weirder than she wants, you just get blocked. Also git gud.

And if you want a specific warthunder leak you just gotta make bold and incorrect statements about it on their forums. Though I hear providing coke in Vegas in something skimpy can get you far more classified information than you think.

Trying to explain to my boss why the feds are there asking questions about a picture of my tits with "silica-manganese doped ceramics are terrible at defeating kinetic penetrators" scrawled across them....

(Big mood about sapphic content though, some folks really struggle to accept not being the target audience. Lemmy really isn't big enough yet to support an actual girl4girl community, but I have hopes that one day...)

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago

Listen, somebody has to make HR earn their paycheck…

(And yeah that's where I am with it. I appreciate how sapphic lemmy is, but idk if it has enough community for such a community, and even if it does, I've moderated far too much of the internet to ever create a lemmy community)

[–] SantasMagicalComfort@piefed.world 2 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Weird.

It’s a well thought out comment and not an off-the-cuff response to an imagined slight.

Is the internet maturing?

[–] Warl0k3@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Sure you're the most notorious troll on lemmy, but this is such obvious shit-stirrin' that it feels... idk, kinda beneath you?

"I don't know why this deeply unpopular comment was downvoted, they seem totally reasonable to me" it's just so straightforward. lacks the élan your comments usually have.

[–] SantasMagicalComfort@piefed.world 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Oh you misunderstand me my comment wasn’t defending underpants.

[–] Warl0k3@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Ah my apologies, your reputation may have preceded you.

[–] 5wim@slrpnk.net 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You're thinking of a different imaginary red character. This is Santa

[–] Warl0k3@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

It turns out that nothing comforts Santa more than shitposting on Lemmy.

Santa is, it turns out, shockingly based.

No, you just stumbled upon a fringe where the signal/noise ratio is slightly better.
