Every crazy Christofascist dog whistle we're hearing now is what I grew up marinating in.

The USAF is rife with Evangelical True Believers.

Once, a Major got videotaped giving a sermon at the church I attended...and got censured for talking about expelling all non-Christians from the US of A.


Ken Burnside (@kenburnside.bsky.social):

I'm a bit jittery about the arm of the US military that has control over 2/3rd of the nuclear triad being riddled with True Believers in the Coming Rapture.


Brooke Binkowski (@brooklynmarie.bsky.social):

I try to think about other things at 2am


Ken Burnside (@kenburnside.bsky.social):

Fun (?) story.

150,000 W AM transmitters have ground wave propagation of the signal to a decent distance.

Which means that bare electrical circuits will vibrate with the signal.

Ever have your toaster or electric shaver give you staticky signs for identifying the coming apocalypse?

I have...


Brooke Binkowski (@brooklynmarie.bsky.social):

I certainly have!! I love that shit in theory


Ken Burnside (@kenburnside.bsky.social):

I'm still trying to figure out why the FCC approved that transmitter.

I guess standards were different in 1970? Were we trying to jam Soviet radar?

KJNP had to reduce to 150,000 Watts early in the Clinton Administration. This was horrible Socialist Godless Oppression per the local newspaper.


Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

At 150k watts, that was absolutely in operation to reach into the Asian continent.

My elementary school was two blocks from KRLD, the 50k watt North Texas AM station that's the regional EAS PEP.

Sometimes, we could hear it rectified in the chain link fence around the playground
