a.co/d/0iERyHTg Today is the day everyone. I am proud to let you all know that I’ve done a final polish pass and have uploaded Ethos to Amazon. The Kindle version is now live. Once it finishes going through review the paperback will be up. It can take up to 72 hours to publish. I am ordering a proof copy of a hardcover version to check the cover. Once I QC that, I will also be offering Ethos in that format as well. I am hoping to have that live within a week or two.

@ICEthosecommies I'd say there's pretty much zero chance he'll have a semi-auto Stoner 63 on the market for $3,000. But on the off chance that I'm wrong and he actually comes through? BUY ONE...FAST!

Well, I just got my first block on X...congratulate me! The odd thing is, this guy is (supposedly) a fellow engineer, and he's working on a very cool gun (Stoner 63) that I'm probably one of the foremost experts on the planet on, as far as design and manufacturing. He's now offering a semi-auto version of this classic gun that the Navy Seals used in Vietnam (for $3,000!), and I guess he didn't like the questions I was asking about how he intends to produce the thing. Oh, well. If he's the real deal and will actually get this thing to market, I doubt he'll do well in the gun industry if he's so easily butthurt! If he's the scammer that his actions seem to paint him to be, then good...I hope I alerted enough people that he won't be successful at it.

So since we’ve been told that the A-10 can’t be built again but the plane is just such a beast…I have a suggestion…let’s make a new replacement. Here’s my proposal. The AA-20. @DaleStarkA10 what do you think? It’s basically an A-10 but with twice as much A-10!

@JGrahamMac1 "I read a book that says Jesus has no advantage over Genghis Khan unless the followers of Jesus are as willing to fight as the followers of Genghis Khan, because being moral and just won't shield you from a guy with a sword who wants you dead." It is absolutely relevant.

@CEOofBigTobacco @HardPass4 You sir are evil...and man I am envious! Good on you. I have a MAK90 and a WASR. Both do what they are supposed to do...but the MAK90 is soo nice. It's probably my favorite gun to shoot that I own tbh.

Already #2 new release in Afghan War and #7 in business ethics. Definitely the intersection the book lives in. The Amazon reporting tool that provides sales metrics is very slow so I have no idea how many copies have sold, but thank you to the early supporters! And friends: buy book, read book, review book, and spread the word of book. a.co/d/04JnHeec

@CELScudder @Johnny_Joey The A-10 does not care about aerodynamics nor gravity. The A-10 flies in defiance of such things powered by pure hate.

@Johnny_Joey I've seen them land minus a wing, part of the tail, and pretty sure 1 engine if memory serves.

For those of you not familiar. The A-10 Warthog is the ugliest, most absurdly beautiful killing machine to ever take flight. A flying chunk of titanium molded around a gatlin gun style cannon; the equally absurd 30mm GAU-8. It commands the adoration of troops on the ground as the sound of its unmistakable mating call the “brrrrrrp” overhead means several enemy fighters have been neutralized. It flies low and slow delivering death more intimately than any other fighter jet could fathom. Cloaked in armor, it’s rumored to be able to take damage to 70% of its airframe and still land with ease. It doesn’t need a long or even paved runway. The uppity nerds running the Air Force have decided to “phase them out” this year… yet here they are continuing to “get some”. I personally think that @USMC should take the them over… they fit perfectly in our “take old shit and make it great” culture.

This one seems to hit hard… “ For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” And this one has been keeping me at peace. “So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."
