“There is no such thing as ‘safe’ Socialism. If it’s safe, it’s not Socialism. And if it’s Socialism, it’s not safe.

Got texts this morning from hometown family members, reporting all-is-well from the Dayton-area ‘tornado outbreak’.

Pixiv: Belfast (Azur Lane)


If I had to pick a favorite shipgirl, and perhaps I just did, it would be Belfast from Azur Lane, a light cruiser with big guns. And a maid costume.

And she’s almost never, ever safe for work.
