I am deriving entirely too much enjoyment from the remark made, quoted in this article [h/t:

happygoth, by Brig. Gen. H. R. McMaster:

“Some problems in the world are not bullet-izable.”

... and the military disappeared in a flash of logic.

Senior officers say the program does come in handy when the goal is not imparting information, as in briefings for reporters.

The news media sessions often last 25 minutes, with 5 minutes left at the end for questions from anyone still awake. Those types of PowerPoint presentations, Dr. Hammes said, are known as “hypnotizing chickens.”

In other news, surprising approximately nobody, I'm a social progressive because I like to fuck without having children.

I love the following quote: "powerpoint makes us stupid" ...was just having this discussion with a friend who seems to have to make these really lame "presentations" at work - it amazes me what people get paid to do.... anyway...

Your "social progressive" article link is great - thanks for sharing! Explains a whole lot - a lot that we already knew of course, but its nice to have it in one place.
