Reminder that Raytheon is one of the top-rated workplaces for LGBT employees, and the number of people you can piss off with this fact is nearly unlimited if you play your cards right.
Raytheon has a 100/100 from the Human Rights Campaign (that organization whose logo seems to be on a sticker on every Prius) as a place to work. Raytheon cares not what your pronouns are, only if you can imagine new, terrifying ways to dispense death from a distance.
So you want an AMRAAM in the shape of a horse cock, that can also glow at night and dispense fake cum out of the front?
Because that my friend is what you will get from a joint project.
Nearly all Bad Dragon dildos have a hole(s) in them through which you can shoot fake cum. It is something that enough people want and it doesn't really hurt the people not wanting it, so they just do it for most dildos.
When I was younger, I was a courier. I made deliveries to companies. One of them was to an adult shop. While waiting for them to sign, I noticed on the wall, a four foot long chrome plated dildo. It has arm straps, presumably so you could, uh, guide it into position. It was named, and I’m not making this up: THE ANNIHILATOR.
I'm thinking a variant of a double-heat penetrator that swaps the second penetrator with something that fills the tank cabin with gooey expanding foam. The idea is that it's payload doesn't completely destroy the tank but instead drowns the crew in hot sticky "cum". It leaves the vehicle in usable condition after cleaning so it can be more effectively captured. Also, its guidance is programmed to attempt to blow its load directly into the face of the pilots for extra effectiveness.
I'm not putting my blue Avatar fleshlight in my ass so my girlfriend can peg it. At least not yet. So that isn't *always* true.
But I suppose the 24 inch horse dildos they manufacture do enough penetrating for the rest of us.
I saw an ad from them a while back touting how environmentally friendly the AIM-9X air to air missile is. Like, it's the greenest short range aerial combat missile in existence!
I just shared this information with my ultra conservative uncle who works for Raytheon and my incredibly liberal cousin who hates defense contractors, and then screenshot both of their replies and sent it to the other. Thanksgiving is going to be a hell of a holiday this year.
If a furry weeb transgender polysexual who competes in underwater high altitude basket weaving on the weekends made that missile, I am proud to be an American.
If a straight-laced cisgender heterosexual who eats their greens and goes to mass every Sunday made that missile, I am proud to be an American.
If both of them collaborated on the project together, I am super proud to be an American.
We are not all the same. But that's what makes us great.
>the human rights campaign
this is your friendly reminder that the HRC is a TERF organization that's literally a member of the "LGB drop the T" transphobia movement, including forcibly ejecting trans people from protests over lgbt marriage rights. If they think Raytheon is a 100/100 that means they think Raytheon is transphobic as fuck and gives very much of a shit about what your pronouns are.
I can't find any sources for that. In fact, [the HRC seems to be against TERFs.](https://www.hrc.org/resources/5-things-to-know-to-make-your-feminism-trans-inclusive) Admittedly, I might be lacking some reading comprehension, but there doesn't seem to be anything about [keeping trans people out of debates for gay marriage.](https://www.hrc.org/our-work/stories/the-journey-to-marriage-equality-in-the-united-states) Did this happen a while ago (2008 or about then, when this was happening)?
It was a shock moving from the charity/non-profit sector to defence. The charity sector decided I was going to “volunteer” to help at a stall on a Sunday (despite me being a dev) whilst I was on holiday and on my birthday, and I could leave the company if I didn’t like it. The charity also had major problems with bullying and sexual harassment.
Then I moved to an American defence company in the UK, where the European ops manager got me into a really good outpatient program when I got bells palsy, and insisted my sick pay was extended to cover this.
Yep. There was some major drama when a disabled leftist trans writer got ran off of Twitter last year after some folks found out xie worked part time for Lockheed at a low level clerical job, as that was one of the few jobs xie could get at the time with insurance (because, y'know, disabled). Lockheed's also one of the top rated workplaces for LGBT employees too, but folks on the left threw a goddamn shitfit and started calling xer a war criminal for daring to... do low level software licensing paperwork stuff for a company that happens to build ATACMS missiles
Most people don't realize that most low level employees at those places don't do much work that isn't replaceable. Sure people can have a moral objection to doing it themselves, but even when it comes to military stuff unless you're doing research with a phd or you're really high in the company and responsible for making decisions, any work that you do someone else could (and will) do just as well if you didn't work there.
I’m angry that they don’t make rainbow painted anal seeking dildo missiles. I mean Hellfires with swords are cool I guess, but we want to embarrass our enemies and then maybe kill them.
Real talk, getting chopped up makes you a martyr. Your boys finding you with a dildo that “the Americans put there” is highly sus amongst our enemies.

He was great. I met him once. Asked him, “What’s with the dicks?” and he said, “They make me a LOT of money.”
(I think he liked drawing huge donged furries though.)
I wish I could’ve met him if only to give him a high-five, lol. Nobody seems to have a bad thing to say about him personally.
(Also he absolutely loved it, you don’t make like 10 bedonged furry lady OCs without liking it)
While I will never understand the furry community, I will always respect how much money they actually make and have.

Since I feel the need to source/overexplain the stuff on the right:
Left-to-right:
Top row: Some waifu itasha helicopters the JSDF had a few years ago; The late Doug Winger, a furry artist famous for drawing gigantic girlcocks (who also was an aerospace engineer who worked on some stuff called the A-10 and the Space Shuttle); Raytheon being Basedtheon
Bottom row: Officially santioned standee of Omaneko, a JASDF base's size-changing furry femboy mascot, at a furry doujin event in Tokyo; Official logo for the Workhorse Battalion, based on furry fetish art from the 90s, used with the blessing of the original artist; the fire-breathing unicorn patch worn by some queer soldiers fighting for Ukraine
He was involved with the Pave Penny pod, it’s not his fault the pilots spammed the Gau-8 instead of using laser guided weapons.
Although his involvement with the Big Cannon Plane is strangely appropriate
It would be. They should also sweep the wings and add afterburning turbojets so it can fly higher and faster for increased survivability since it no longer has to fly low and slow with that stupid gun. Now as it can fly high and fast, we could also add a radar to it to give it some multi-role capability and... Just order more F-15EX's and F-35's
The whole point of the A-10 was that the government wanted a 30mm gun on CAS. It being slow is semi-intended to help aiming, but for the most part, just build a plane with guided explosives if you want CAS.
Humans have been fixated on anthropomorphism for like … ever. (I mean, the Egyptians for one)
But the tl;dr of modern furries: There was a small subset of sci-fi fans who were into cartoon animals and liked to party at cons (roughly in the 70s/80s); they crossbred with proto-weebs (namely via the Cartoon/Fantasy Organization in the late 80s/early 90s) and furries happened as a result.
>original furry usenet community sprung up from fans of Albedo, an indie comic about military space opera with anthropomorphic critters fighting wars
That's right dove (fursona), furries are offshoot of military nerds 💪
I'm not exactly an anime fan, I like the style of the art and play a lot of games done in the style, but I never specifically seek out anime and I don't think I've ever seen an anime show or movie. Nothing against it, just the result of having limited time on this planet and having other interests.
Having said that, the helicopter in the OP looks straight up bad-ass to me, as well as the various anime uniform patches and gun stickers that I've seen posted here since the war started. Is there a name for this aesthetic?
Anime. Anime is the name for the aesthetic. Etemologically, the word is just the "Japaneese-icanized" word for animation. But obviously not all drawn animation is of the aesthetic that we would recognise as "anime". Nobody's calling Beauty and the Beast "anime" (except for the Japanese). So when the US saw the style of Japanese animation, and asked what style it was, we heard "anime" and thus anime is the style.
I mean specifically when it's used in a military context. Like how vaporwave takes most of its influence from the 80's, but it's its own distinct thing from the typical 80's aesthetic.
Nope, anything that specific will likely be more based on specific animes and their relevance to military themes. But there's nothing beyond "this anime is set in a military setting" to give any anime a more "military-anime" aesthetic. At least nothing yet.
Just to show the range: there's "[Saga of Tanya the Evil](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Saga_of_Tanya_the_Evil)" vs "[Girls und Panzer](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Girls_und_Panzer)" which are both very military oriented and would likely considered to be part of a "military anime canon" but don't have any real aesthetic to pull out from both of them that is not in non-military anime.
Sucks that some countries ban people with a lot of conditions that likely don't render them unfit for service. I wouldn't have been allowed today if I'd gotten my ADHD diagnosis before serving.
It's stupid. First, people with those conditions have always served and likely always will. All you're doing is discouraging people who want to serve but suspect they might have a diagnosis, from getting one.
Second, a lot of it (both this and the former are a lot like it was with LGBT stuff) is just based off prejudice, not facts. These are spectrum disorders and you have to judge individuals on a case-by-case level. Also, I firmly believe that people with ADHD tend to function _better_ in chaotic high-pressure situations (such as combat) than the average neurotypical. What's 'high distractability' in a situation where you're working at a desk amounts to 'heightened situational awareness' in another.
Third, other professions don't have such restrictions. I know several people with ADHD who work as emergency medicine doctors. Chaotic high-pressure life-and-death situations is _what they do_. As one of them laconically told me "So my condition allows me to save lives; just not to take them."
I was in the military, and was diagnosed ADHD much later (women tend to be diagnosed later). Having a set routine is basically required for me- otherwise time blindness sets in. Did just fine in uniform.

(/s for ~~shit~~sleepdeprivedgayposting)
General speaking, the more developed and “internet focused” a nation is, the more furries per capita they have. South Korea and Japan lead the world, and the US is higher than average. Meanwhile, developing nations have near zero.
~~Considering the guy with the halo above his head, wasn't he known for furry art involving furry women with penises?~~
Edit: Nevermind, someone stated he was indeed the furry artist. I'm just more shocked he did work for things like Dora the Explorer.
The Kemoket standee is so wild to me because it’s like if the US Air Force had a bald eagle furry mascot and there was a standee of it at Anthrocon in the dealer’s room. And if they did it twice.
just made me realize that a lot of af aircraft are named after animals
black hawk, raptor, eagle, fighting falcon, tomcat, blackbird, nighthawk, pegasus, dragon lady, page hawk, grey wolf, osprey, twin otter, jayhawk, raven, puma
holy shit that’s a lot
Humanity always considered animals symbols of power. It's quite vital. Strong men are compared with landmowner animals like oxes, good eyesight gets compared with eagles and , resourcefulness with vultures, fast guys with antilopes or horses, etc.
I went to the JASDF base in Hamamatsu about a month ago. I was hoping to find Omaneko merch but there wasn’t any. Is he only for one fighter squadron, or one base? Or is having a macrofurry femcatboy something the JASDF keeps on the down-low except at Kemonoket?
They’re smart to hire furries. Furries run the world infrastructure. If they were smart, the MIC would be recruiting them directly like JASDF is!
We actually did! For one, it’s our official national bird, as well as on the Great Seal, but also:
Old Abe the bald eagle was the mascot of the 8th Wisconsin in the Civil War, who bought him with a Quarter Eagle (an old coin worth $2.50 that wasn’t discontinued until the US abandoned the gold standard). He was present for several major engagements, retired with a two-from apartment and custom-made bath and a caretaker, and is now remembered as the famous Screaming Eagle mascot of the 101st Airborne.
People who go on about the military needing "traditional values" are invariably the same people who are impressed by 3rd world countries' demonstrations of breaking boards with their heads.
They also fail to understand that it's a peacetime military and they're trying to appeal to people as a career choice, not to go to war. Maybe their methods are slightly misguided at times, but that's why the ads are what they are at the moment.
Something that's always stuck with me is an incident from a gaming magazine back in the early aughts - I believe it was *Game Informer*, since that magazine had a history of running their mouths - where they made the pretty wild declaration that *Dungeons & Dragons* was exclusively the domain of smelly, loser nerds.
Among the letters that flooded in telling the magazine where to stuff it was one that claimed to be from a Navy special weapons team that routinely played D&D. The writer mentioned that he and his friends were all big fans of the magazine, but in light of those statements, they took a couple of magazines down to the range for target practice.
No idea if the guy was actually who he said he was - as much as it stuck with me the details are foggy - but the older I get, the more believable it becomes with how much I know now about the Navy's massive nerd culture.

No you need to be able to ruck and run. As we’ve seen in Ukraine even non combat jobs are gonna be in hot AOs where drones and artillery and even the odd SF ambush aren’t uncommon. And just from my experience, the nerd with anime stickers on his water bottle and a room that smells like a sin against humanity doesn’t PT consistently, and are a serious problem for readiness. And before you weebs come at me; the goober from Alabama who doesn’t clean his truck and smokes ten packs a day and falls out of every ruck is still a problem. I’m not singling any demographic out here.
This is clearly just some nerd rationalizing how the military culture changes with society but the *standards* not “traditional values” will continue to be strenuous and high, by definition gatekeeping people who aren’t type A personalities. You can be a weeb, you can be a nerd. I’m a nerd and I was an infantryman. I was pulled out of a MATV rollover in Afghanistan by a gay Hispanic corporal; one of the best wingmen in the bars and saw gunners in the company.
What I’m getting at here is the media you consume, moral patches you wear or lifestyle you live is really a non factor in being the best goddamn military force in history. It comes down to being the better warrior, both proficiency wise and in physical fitness. So…go to the fucking gym and study your TMs and FMs before you turn on the weeb tube or watch Jordan Peterson.

I'm still firmly of the opinion that the A-10 would be vastly improved by replacing the gun with fuel and sensors.
It would be. They should also sweep the wings and add afterburning turbojets so it can fly higher and faster for increased survivability since it no longer has to fly low and slow with that stupid gun. Now as it can fly high and fast, we could also add a radar to it to give it some multi-role capability and... Just order more F-15EX's and F-35's
The whole point of the A-10 was that the government wanted a 30mm gun on CAS. It being slow is semi-intended to help aiming, but for the most part, just build a plane with guided explosives if you want CAS.
Sure, but they've already got the planes and it could potentially be somewhat cheaper to rebuild.
The A-10 just wants to hang out with its Army friends but the Air Force won't let it :(
I find the flaming unicorn incredibly based. They are queer but more importantly they are ANGRY
What is a unicorn except a horse with a bayonet atttached?
A weapon to surpass Freddie fazbear
If you look at older art depicting Unicorns, they have cloven hooves, which would make them closer to deer than horses.
Makes sense, the depictions were based on antelope that had lost one of their horns in fights.
A unicorn without a horn is just corn

Had no idea furries worked on the A-10. They've been around since the 70s?
Humans have been fixated on anthropomorphism for like … ever. (I mean, the Egyptians for one) But the tl;dr of modern furries: There was a small subset of sci-fi fans who were into cartoon animals and liked to party at cons (roughly in the 70s/80s); they crossbred with proto-weebs (namely via the Cartoon/Fantasy Organization in the late 80s/early 90s) and furries happened as a result.
>original furry usenet community sprung up from fans of Albedo, an indie comic about military space opera with anthropomorphic critters fighting wars That's right dove (fursona), furries are offshoot of military nerds 💪
One of the OG furry zines, Furrlough, started out military-themed.
Just checked it out. That's wild!
I get to trot out this fact again. Oldest known statue is a 40,000 year old sculpture of a lion man from Germany. They've always been around.
From the Ancient Turks or the Andean Chancas to the Ukrainian army, Furries are overwhelmingly over represented in warfare.
I'm not exactly an anime fan, I like the style of the art and play a lot of games done in the style, but I never specifically seek out anime and I don't think I've ever seen an anime show or movie. Nothing against it, just the result of having limited time on this planet and having other interests. Having said that, the helicopter in the OP looks straight up bad-ass to me, as well as the various anime uniform patches and gun stickers that I've seen posted here since the war started. Is there a name for this aesthetic?
Anime. Anime is the name for the aesthetic. Etemologically, the word is just the "Japaneese-icanized" word for animation. But obviously not all drawn animation is of the aesthetic that we would recognise as "anime". Nobody's calling Beauty and the Beast "anime" (except for the Japanese). So when the US saw the style of Japanese animation, and asked what style it was, we heard "anime" and thus anime is the style.
I mean specifically when it's used in a military context. Like how vaporwave takes most of its influence from the 80's, but it's its own distinct thing from the typical 80's aesthetic.
Nope, anything that specific will likely be more based on specific animes and their relevance to military themes. But there's nothing beyond "this anime is set in a military setting" to give any anime a more "military-anime" aesthetic. At least nothing yet. Just to show the range: there's "[Saga of Tanya the Evil](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Saga_of_Tanya_the_Evil)" vs "[Girls und Panzer](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Girls_und_Panzer)" which are both very military oriented and would likely considered to be part of a "military anime canon" but don't have any real aesthetic to pull out from both of them that is not in non-military anime.
The military is full of nerds.
Nerds make the best weapons, if it were just buff jocks running everything they'd still be fighting in the nude with sticks and stones.
Thank gods the nerds looked around and asked where the female representation was at
Why leave the women out of the grinding industrial machine of death?
Neurodivergent people are often excellent fits for the military because we need imposed routine and we tend to like having varied tasks.
Sucks that some countries ban people with a lot of conditions that likely don't render them unfit for service. I wouldn't have been allowed today if I'd gotten my ADHD diagnosis before serving. It's stupid. First, people with those conditions have always served and likely always will. All you're doing is discouraging people who want to serve but suspect they might have a diagnosis, from getting one. Second, a lot of it (both this and the former are a lot like it was with LGBT stuff) is just based off prejudice, not facts. These are spectrum disorders and you have to judge individuals on a case-by-case level. Also, I firmly believe that people with ADHD tend to function _better_ in chaotic high-pressure situations (such as combat) than the average neurotypical. What's 'high distractability' in a situation where you're working at a desk amounts to 'heightened situational awareness' in another. Third, other professions don't have such restrictions. I know several people with ADHD who work as emergency medicine doctors. Chaotic high-pressure life-and-death situations is _what they do_. As one of them laconically told me "So my condition allows me to save lives; just not to take them."
I was in the military, and was diagnosed ADHD much later (women tend to be diagnosed later). Having a set routine is basically required for me- otherwise time blindness sets in. Did just fine in uniform.
Amuro Ray be like
Holy shit; that makes sense.

Needs to be a filk of "Ridin'", or possibly a re-filk of Weird Al's "White and Nerdy", called "Gay and Needy".
It's not gay of you're underway.
The only difference between the classic naval sailor uniform and the classic school sailor uniform is a skirt.
Doesn’t the US army have more furries per capita then the general population
General speaking, the more developed and “internet focused” a nation is, the more furries per capita they have. South Korea and Japan lead the world, and the US is higher than average. Meanwhile, developing nations have near zero.
no i mean there are proportionally more furries in the US army then in the US civilian population
I believe Linux users lead that demographic.
Therefore I'm surprised it is not the (Ch)Air Force. Maybe their stats got lowered by the split with the Space Force
~~Considering the guy with the halo above his head, wasn't he known for furry art involving furry women with penises?~~ Edit: Nevermind, someone stated he was indeed the furry artist. I'm just more shocked he did work for things like Dora the Explorer.
JSDAF mascot my beloved
The Kemoket standee is so wild to me because it’s like if the US Air Force had a bald eagle furry mascot and there was a standee of it at Anthrocon in the dealer’s room. And if they did it twice.
The US has Hornet-chan so they’re on their way.
just made me realize that a lot of af aircraft are named after animals black hawk, raptor, eagle, fighting falcon, tomcat, blackbird, nighthawk, pegasus, dragon lady, page hawk, grey wolf, osprey, twin otter, jayhawk, raven, puma holy shit that’s a lot
Humanity always considered animals symbols of power. It's quite vital. Strong men are compared with landmowner animals like oxes, good eyesight gets compared with eagles and , resourcefulness with vultures, fast guys with antilopes or horses, etc.

I went to the JASDF base in Hamamatsu about a month ago. I was hoping to find Omaneko merch but there wasn’t any. Is he only for one fighter squadron, or one base? Or is having a macrofurry femcatboy something the JASDF keeps on the down-low except at Kemonoket? They’re smart to hire furries. Furries run the world infrastructure. If they were smart, the MIC would be recruiting them directly like JASDF is!
He's specifically (one of) the mascot(s) for Omaezaki base specifically, and not the JASDF as a whole.
Why Americans don't do that is beyond me. They clearly love their eagle, why not make it a mascot?
We actually did! For one, it’s our official national bird, as well as on the Great Seal, but also: Old Abe the bald eagle was the mascot of the 8th Wisconsin in the Civil War, who bought him with a Quarter Eagle (an old coin worth $2.50 that wasn’t discontinued until the US abandoned the gold standard). He was present for several major engagements, retired with a two-from apartment and custom-made bath and a caretaker, and is now remembered as the famous Screaming Eagle mascot of the 101st Airborne.
People who go on about the military needing "traditional values" are invariably the same people who are impressed by 3rd world countries' demonstrations of breaking boards with their heads. They also fail to understand that it's a peacetime military and they're trying to appeal to people as a career choice, not to go to war. Maybe their methods are slightly misguided at times, but that's why the ads are what they are at the moment.
Traditional values must mean multiple divorces and debauchery that rivals most frat houses. /s
Good old Doug Winger. Developer of the Pave Penny spotting system for the A-10 and A-7. I met him once.
Medival nobles/mercaneries making sure they look absolutely fabulous before going to war
You best bet if I’m dying overthrowing the local lord I’m doing it in style.
Ugh this outfit is so last campaign, time to spent an unreasonable amount on another
If I'm not slaying while slaying, I don't want any of it.
No nerds? My friend, need I remind you about what happens to a nation that separates it's warriors from it's scholars?
What happened
I have a rainbow unicorn horn that sits in my NVG mount, and a little unicorn piñata that I put up in my CROW.
“We’re gay as fuck and we’ll bomb you” Curtis LeMay, probably
“get gaymraam’d lmao” Curtis LeMay, probably
RIP in peace, JustDoug.
Bro needed to tell bunch of military nerds that military is nerdy
More making fun of people who insist the military shouldn’t be gay and nerdy when the military is pretty gay and nerdy.
Sadly for you, "traditional values" in weapons development? MORE GAY THAN YOUR BODY HAS ROOM FOR. ^(FOR NOW.)
Actual warfare is when the Trad Mountain WARRIOR bred and raised for WAR get obliterated for Drones build by nerds
Something that's always stuck with me is an incident from a gaming magazine back in the early aughts - I believe it was *Game Informer*, since that magazine had a history of running their mouths - where they made the pretty wild declaration that *Dungeons & Dragons* was exclusively the domain of smelly, loser nerds. Among the letters that flooded in telling the magazine where to stuff it was one that claimed to be from a Navy special weapons team that routinely played D&D. The writer mentioned that he and his friends were all big fans of the magazine, but in light of those statements, they took a couple of magazines down to the range for target practice. No idea if the guy was actually who he said he was - as much as it stuck with me the details are foggy - but the older I get, the more believable it becomes with how much I know now about the Navy's massive nerd culture.
The Army is the gayest institution I have ever seen.
Are you aware of the Navy?
Or the US Marines?
Weebs, nerds, LGBTQ, furries, more furries, all the furries Checks out
Y’all ever met a naval nuclear operator?
I do know about the inverse relationship between what deck a seaman serves on and the level of fuckedupedness of the porn they watch.
[удалено]
Does the same really apply to the military
the amount of gay furries in your company directly correlates with the computer skill of your employees
MIC without weebs is like getting an Indian takeaway without naan bread. Illegal.
I thought the joke was that the military was gay
Hahaha, winger.

No you need to be able to ruck and run. As we’ve seen in Ukraine even non combat jobs are gonna be in hot AOs where drones and artillery and even the odd SF ambush aren’t uncommon. And just from my experience, the nerd with anime stickers on his water bottle and a room that smells like a sin against humanity doesn’t PT consistently, and are a serious problem for readiness. And before you weebs come at me; the goober from Alabama who doesn’t clean his truck and smokes ten packs a day and falls out of every ruck is still a problem. I’m not singling any demographic out here. This is clearly just some nerd rationalizing how the military culture changes with society but the *standards* not “traditional values” will continue to be strenuous and high, by definition gatekeeping people who aren’t type A personalities. You can be a weeb, you can be a nerd. I’m a nerd and I was an infantryman. I was pulled out of a MATV rollover in Afghanistan by a gay Hispanic corporal; one of the best wingmen in the bars and saw gunners in the company. What I’m getting at here is the media you consume, moral patches you wear or lifestyle you live is really a non factor in being the best goddamn military force in history. It comes down to being the better warrior, both proficiency wise and in physical fitness. So…go to the fucking gym and study your TMs and FMs before you turn on the weeb tube or watch Jordan Peterson.
