It’s been a hell of a war!
A expression one can either yell or speak with a quiet dignity to comrades when advancing towards almost certain death. This saying moved from insider military slang into popular consciousness through Hollywood’s portrayal of Vietnam era battles that foreground moments of suicidal bravado.
Gentlemen, we are outnumbered and almost out of ammo; It’s going to go hand to hand. It’s been a pleasure serving with you; and: it’s been a hell of a war!

“All skin folks ain’t kin folk; and all pale beings ain’t hell-beings.”
“All skin folks ain’t kin folks ; and, all pale beings ain’t hell-beings.” — in an era of history where DEMOCACY ITSELF is endangered world wide, we would all be well served to realize: “All skin folks ain’t king folk; and all pale beings ain’t hell-beings.”
The only possibility for saving Democracy is coalition building across racial, gender, religious, economic, and political lines with the conscious intention of saving Democracy so that we all can fight about it later.
The danger of being TRIBAL in a GLOBAL world is the possibility of Global Thermonuclear Annihilation — an Existential Vampire that has found a way to gather its ashes; reattach its severed head; remove the stake from its heart; and anoint these remains with the blood of the Ukrainian People — who are currently fighting a proxy war for our freedom.
We can all be a little bigger; or we can all be cinders scattered on a cinder. If we can’t fight the raging fires caused by climate change and the environmental damage of the earth 🌍; then I’m pretty sure we don’t have a solution for the fires caused by tactical nuclear weapons.

Youngin, you better listen to this old man and learn; you can’t fight every battle by yourself: “All skin folks ain’t kin folk; and all pale beings ain’t hell-beings.” We all need each other; and we all need allies.

people in hell want ice water
A common response to the superfluous wants of someone in which situation there is either no ability or desire to respond to said wants. In other words, people in hell may want ice water, but the Devil has no desire to give it to them because they're in hell and now they have to deal with it.
Johnny: Dad, I really want a new BMW since Jason down the street got one.
Dad: Well, people in hell want ice water. You're going to continue to drive your 1999 piece-of-shit Toyota.

pod person

dead drop
A dead drop is a location used to secretly pass items between two people, without requiring them to meet.
Spies have been known to use dead drops, using various techniques to hide the items and to signal that the drop has been made. Drug dealers use this as well.
A common place is to duct tape the item to the underside of a toilet cover in a public restroom.
A signal is sometimes used as well to indicate there is something to pickup, like a pile of stones in a certain formation. After checking the drop the signal is removed.

No Surprises Wedding
A "No Surprises Wedding," or NSW, is a wedding invitation designation that tells attendees that there can be no unplanned announcements, engagements, events or speeches at the wedding - all actions must be pre-approved by the couple. Anyone who performs an unapproved "surprise" will be asked to leave the wedding early.
This designation comes from Reddit, where so many stories of bad wedding behavior indicated a need to communicate expectations for the wedding behavior of attendees.
