Allegedly the units sent this out, that soldiers who disagreed politically could ask to be excused from attending the speech. Army didn't want the optics of having people not applaud the President.

Well I discovered why my ten year old daughter is tired all the time, it's because she's been setting her alarm for 5:30 am so she can sneak downstairs and watch YouTube on the smart TV.

If I understand my peers in the Pacific Northwest correctly, the only good small business is one where the owner's total net worth including home equity is less than $1 million, they own no other business, they pay a living wage, provide benefits, and prices of all goods are lower than WalMart.

I’m sorry, but the base of the Democratic Party is a middle aged black woman with a service sector job that does not know what BlueSky is, and upon being exposed to it, would swiftly and correctly conclude that we all need to log off and find Jesus.

As far as I can tell, this is RUMINT but it's in line with how the US government usually treats National Guard soldiers on Title 10 orders.

Interesting question. I was in the Army from 2007 to 2023 when I medically retired, and in those 16 years and all those shut downs and budget struggles it impacted active duty pay exactly once, in 2011, and then Congress scrambled to fix it within 24 hours because they realized it was such a risk.

The thing is there is no funding for this. That's why the Guard soldiers are sleeping on the floor and there are no toilets. The unit hasn't gotten funds to book port-a-johns. And once these units hit 30 days activated, every soldier is owed a ton more money because BAH benefits kick in.

A recent survey of the homeless population in my county described the majority as cis, straight white people and a lot of the non-profits are upset about it, saying the survey was flawed and/or racist. And yes, that's one possibility. But here's the thing.

Maybe it's not a thought bubble as much as it is that the BlueSky community likes to gaslight itself into pretending the most embarassing trends in progressive spheres never happened.

The Last of the Mohicans is a beautifully acted and directed movie and it's impossible for me to watch because I'm too familiar with the upstate New York geography and spend the whole movie thinking things like "is that supposed to be the Hudson? the Hudson is a lot wider at that point in the river"

For those of you who don't watch the Tony awards but did watch grainy YouTube videos of a certain unauthorized college fan musical circa 2009 or so, it's important to me that you know this guy now has a Tony Award for Leading Actor in a Musical.

Gymnastics still has an earned reputation as a mostly white sport but my son's team happens to have a kid on it whose parents run a Mexican restaurant and another whose parents used to run a Filipino restaurant and let me tell you every year the team end of season picnic is a can't miss appointment.

(there absolutely is a thought bubble. terrible people are also pointing out the thought bubble. sadly the fact that they are terrible doesn't mean they are wrong about this one thing.)

I've known more than a few people who have worked for the FBI and almost all of them went that route out of a sense that they would be going after major criminals and doing some good for society. I've gotta wonder how their morale is doing, being dragged over to focus on immigration cases.

Computerized education programs are fun because you get to see your kids despair in real time over how the more educated you get, the harder and longer the questions get.
