Podcast reading w/ Free PDF 📚: The War of The Flea~How Guerrilla Fighters Could Win The World! By Robert Taber

Summary:

In an era where the dynamics of conflict and resistance are ever-evolving, Robert Taber's book, "War of the Flea: How the Guerrilla Fighter Could Win the World" stands as a beacon of insight and analysis. Drawing inspiration from the resistance movements across the global south, @shesunruly and @the_penandpaper embarks on an auditory journey that delves into the undercurrents of asymmetrical warfare and the indomitable spirit of insurgent movements across the globe.

Listeners are invited to traverse through time and space, from the dense forests of Vietnam to the arid landscapes of Afghanistan, and the ongoing struggles against western hegemony in Africa, examining how outnumbered and outgunned forces have wielded the weapons of guerrilla tactics, psychological warfare, and public opinion to challenge dominant powers."War of the Flea" sheds light on the enduring question of what makes these David vs. Goliath battles possible—and at times, even successful.

Gordi is certified flea-free 🪮

#unicorn wars #unicorn wars gordi #teddybears probably incorperate pest control in their regular hygiene routines #like with flea/tick/lice killing shampoos and ointments like we use on cats and dogs #its just as normal to them as facial cleanser and deoderant is to us #and who wouldnt enjoy a friend helping combband inspect hard to reach places!

María is a bad bitch queen supreme with a simple dream of reclaiming her land Volturi-style after her human life was tragically cut short by a Texan who had invaded Mexico to create his own vampire Golden Corral. RESPECT HER OR PERISH

#LOVE AND RESPECT FOR HER SHE IS WONDERFUL I LOVE HER #ALSO she's a total softie emotional lil angel who wouldn't have felt forced to take power if her entire coven hadn't been slaughtered #but after YEARS of losses - her human fam & her vamp fam & her HOME - @ the hands of vampires & white colonizers #she got addicted to power & victory! what's a girl supposed to do honestly?????#& LET'S NOT FORGET she & Jasper enabled each other to seek victory bc before they met THEY WERE BOTH LOSERS.#like #i'm just saying she is just as powerful as the Volturi #with a knack for identifying talents in humans #who used the SAME tricks as the Voturi #who was influenced to a degree by Jasper to get greedy bc they were stronger together & loved winning for a change #(we love fucked up relationship 'i can make them worse' dynamics ok)#AND who - & i really can't stress this enough - is only in this damn war because she had everything stolen from her & wanted revenge #yet somehow she gets a lot of flak because she 'manipulated' (not true) and 'abused' (also not true) Jasper?????? the Confederate?????????#just remember #without María jasper would have died in a union-army POW camp eating the fleas off his own clothes #FAX FAX FAX

I honestly cannot believe that "Kenobi saves Leia from a Red Hot Chilli Pepper" is a 100% accurate description of a Star Wars plot.

Alright those of you with charr characters I want to know how they handled getting a flea bath back when they were in the fahrar (or just when they were a cub for non-legion charr)

#gw2 #guild wars 2 #Rugan took it pretty well #some whining involved but not the most arduous experience for the primus to bathe him #Falx however threw a tantrum every. single. time a flea outbreak occurred #A common saying among the fahrar workers was “if he wasn't the pact commander's cub...”

I’ve been really busy taking care of a skin problem my dog has but we weren’t able to bring her to the vet until yesterday and it turns out it’s FLEAS and i feel like an idiot because our house is dimly lit but the room at the office was really bright and THAT’S when we finally noticed, RIGHT before the vet came in — on the plus side, the immediate diagnosis expedited the visit and may have even lowered the price for consultation

anyway we’re going for a three-pronged approach (plus a corticosteroid for the inflammation) and cleaning our things but basically i got woken up early today to immediately help bathe her and i got two leg cramps at the same time….. she’s cooperative but she mdvery strong and doesn’t love baths until she’s already done and dry so unless i hold her securely by the body she’ll start to walk away with her muscular little legs which is why i had to squat in a very non-ergonomic fashion, the balls of my feet the only point of ground contact because she kept moving away, which triggered the tension in my legs

then i showered thoroughly myself (even if she didn’t have fleas i would’ve had to do it anyway; she shook her head while my dad was rinsing her ears and tossed a comical amount of water on my face, like a full splash….. like a tiny log flume had just come directly towards my face, absolutely dripping wet) and played breath of the wild for awhile but now i’m so very sleepy so it’s time for me to snuggle up in bed until i’m more caught up

#haleylyfe #we also have to get some of that squeeze stuff for the cats just in case #fleas aren’t native here and none of our pets have ever had them #in my entire life #which is why my parents didn’t even consider that could be the problem #I had suspicions but my dad was like ‘oh that dead bug in her shampoo???? just a gnat’ and i was like ‘hmmmm’#I wish my mom would help care for her a little more but she makes everything feel like a deadly ordeal so it’s hard to work with her #besides she’s more of a caretaker for our old one-eyed cat kenny because he has a really ambiguous skin condition #as a result of his war getting slashed open and infected in the street when he was younger #if my mom hadn’t drained the big pustule before going to the vet he would’ve lost the whole ear #but the vets did such a good job you can’t even see the mark #it would’ve necrotized if left alone though which is awful

Toy lot (loose & Incomplete)

Star Trek & Star Wars

On 10-03-21 my gf and I went to a Punk Rock Flea Market and one of the vendors we came across had some old Playmates Star Trek toys, and another one had some old Kenner Star Wars toys. So naturally I bought them.

Star Wars (Kenner)

You can’t have enough Imperial stormtroopers or TIE fighter pilots, or AT-AT pilots for that matter.

R5-D4 was in pretty good condition so I had to grab it, even though this is my third Kenner R5. I always wanted R5-D4 as a kid, but never got him. He was always a minor grail for me, so every time that I see one, I pick one up.

Romulan Warbird

The Romulan Warbird is from Playmates ‘The Next Generation’ toyline.

This was my first one (I own a second one now). It’s in pretty good condition, however there’s some discoloration around some of the sculpted wing details, and at the forward section of the ship.

But otherwise I think the sculpting on the ship is nice, but simple, and the painting is almost nonexistent...Actually forget the almost part, it IS nonexistent; the entire ship is a cast in green plastic, aside from the transparent blues of the warp nacelles. The does have lights and sounds but so far I haven’t bothered to see if they actually work yet..

Now moving on to the 4inch figures.

All the figures are loose, in good condition and mostly missing their accessories.

Starfleet Cadet Data:

The Cadet Data was part of a later series of Playmates trek figures supposed to be featuring all younger versions of the TNG cast. I think this is one of he few times Playmates strayed away from creating screen accurate (Star Trek) toys and making and creating their own things which was never featured in any of the shows.

Three Datas and a Lore

Kruge (Star Trek III):

The antagonist from ‘Star Trek: The Search for Spock’ played by Christopher Lloyd, and I have to say Playmates did capture the look of him really well!

Gowron (TNG)

How can you not recognize ‘Ol Crazy-Eyes?

Kahless (TNG):

Kahless...or should I say his clone is the least interesting one in my opinion. But he stands well.

Benjamin Sisko (as a Klingon):

I had to do a double take on this figure. When I first got all these guys I really didn’t give this figure much attention. At first I though he might be Worf’s biological brother, but thee I was holding the figure in my hand and just the right right angle and said to myself, ‘Wait; is that Sisko?’ And sure enough it was him from that one DS9 episode some of the DS9 crew infiltrated the great hall to expose a Changling.
