Dr Marten, who are known as an overpriced shoe company for lesbians and angsty teenage girls, have featured an artist who made a boot that promotes zipper tits:

Costa Coffee would also love to have more girls chop off healthy breast tissue:

Dr Martens seems like an interesting company - all I knew about them is that Bri'ish comedian Alexei Sayle once sang a song about them (tried to turn it into Joshcore, it was too anglo). They're a English company but founded by a German army doctor in 1947 who developed his patented boots during the war as the standard issue boots were not comfortable especially after he broke his ankle. Over 75 years of experience, history and name recognition for xirs to come in and crash it all to the ground.

Both Costa and Dr Martens are Bri*ish companies, it's definitely a TERF island over there.

EDIT: The manmade horrors distracted me, forgot to mention the obvious - it is Alegria art. This is something people want?

It's also funny how Jersh said in the last mati that he does his best to keep new pictures of himself off the internet but when he posted the "where the sidewalk ends" article, he had some blurry picture that looked newish. He could just have used anything else. I put 100€ on "him uploading a new pic" in the next 2 years.

Josh as already denied her request. He also said he doesn't want to collab with any vtuber, or anything anime adjacent, ever.

To be fair to him, she did mention Josh and Mad at the Internet, and this is the MatI thread.

Did he? I know he doesn't want to collab with Pippa but a Kirsche stream could be nice tbh.

TLDR:
Despite this success, in 2023, every service except the Marine Corps is poised to miss its recruiting goals. In 2022, the Army alone fell short by 15,000 recruits.

*For the record this was from destroying the apathy of middle America.

It's time to change how our country fills the ranks of our military.

Since 1775, our nation has used a combination of volunteers and draftees to meet our national defense personnel needs, especially in times of crisis.

Today, the military needs only about 160,000 youth from an eligible population of 30 million to meet its recruitment needs. But after two decades of war -- both of which ended unsuccessfully -- and low unemployment, many experts believe the all-volunteer force has reached a breaking point. And American confidence in its military is at a low.

The fastest and most effective way to resolve this recruiting crisis is to change how we recruit.

Instead of an "either an all-volunteer force or a fully conscripted force" model, I propose a both-and solution.

We should have our military recruiters sign up new troops for 11 months out of the year, and then have the Selective Service draft the delta between the military's needs and the total number recruited.

This model would alleviate the incredible pressure on our recruiters, lower the cost of finding new troops, and significantly reduce the much decried civilian-military gap by subjecting all of America's youth -- rich and poor -- to the possibility of military service via the draft.

This increased public interest might also have the added effect of increasing public pressure to prevent open-ended wars led by unaccountable senior leaders like we experienced in our national debacles in Iraq and Afghanistan.

While the causes of our current recruiting crisis are many, the fastest and best solution lies within our already existing Selective Service System.

This would obviously represent a seismic change, given the more recent history of military drafts.

In 1973, the draft was abolished with the establishment of the all-volunteer force, driven largely by the American public's weariness with our debacle in Vietnam; systemic inequities in the draft (e.g. wealthier Americans being able to defer service); and the fact that the size of our population had become so large in relation to the needs of the military, universal drafting became obsolete.

While the all-volunteer force had the effect of lowering discipline problems and professionalizing the force, it also created a vast gap between American citizens and those who serve -- effectively creating a military warrior caste that now appears more like a multi-generational family business than an organization that represents the true makeup of our democratic republic.

The establishment of the all-volunteer force also drove the military to expend an incredible amount of resources in terms of manpower and dollars to build a recruiting machine to attract America's youth to service. Considering it costs about $15,000 to recruit each new member, the overall cost each year exceeds $2 billion.

And recruitment has risen and fallen with the national unemployment rate.

The causes of this crisis are many, and both politicians and our national leadership are largely to blame.

For nearly a decade now, feckless politicians, using the military as a club to batter their opponents, have exacerbated increasing negative public opinion despite the fact that our military has crushed international terrorism and prevented another large-scale attack on our homeland for 22 years and running.

Despite this success, in 2023, every service except the Marine Corps is poised to miss its recruiting goals. In 2022, the Army alone fell short by 15,000 recruits.

The needs of the nation must be met, and our national leadership would be wise to reinforce the idea that military service is an important responsibility of citizenship.

While conscription has always been a controversial issue throughout our history, a hybrid model would alleviate our current military manpower crisis, increase the connectivity between the American public and its military, and more responsibly use taxpayer dollars.

Holes in our military formations are, in fact, gaps in our national security.

kek this nigga really downplays the tensions between regular citizens and the pedophile elite. nobody is going to accept being drafted to fight for baby rapists who hand out hormones like candy. we cant even agree if biological sex is a legitimate field of study, he really thinks people will just put this aside and agree to put their lives on the line for the nation that allows this? just let china roll up on us bro, I'm done.

That's not likely to happen. More likely is that he marries a skinny chick and then slowly but surely fattens her up in all the right places.
Like Pierce Brosnan, he can't suppress his feeder ways. He will be the "architect" of his dream woman.
Perhaps this is an even more fitting end for a cow farmer.
