Remembering some Fighting Dems - Jim Webb's "I killed a guy in 'Nam" answer from 2016

I cannot get into club soccer the way I can national teams, and it just drives home how much the overstuffed club season is killing off the already limited chances for national team fixtures since load management is rational for pro athletes

We had to sell our house, take our kid out of daycare, and are moving 500 miles for my wife's new job in not the industry she wanted (because it now no longer exists) but yeah, we're too mean to him.

Used to happen all the time driving into Crystal City on 395. It was like they also used it as a route to approach the Pentagon. Always left me curious how low ranking a level of official or general qualified to commute that way.

“There is more to being an American than buying cheap crap” no I promise you there is not. If there ever was more to it than that, that era is long gone. This was the deal imposed upon us in the 80s: everyone will get poorer and everything will get worse, but Walmart will be full of cheap stuff.

Last time around we had to deal with Melania visiting the Pyramids the day after we did and closing them down - they had already cleared out all the vendors and we had to go miles away to ride camels instead of right there. Everything exists only for them.

At the same time, it absolutely privileges the combat arms' missions over what Obama used to call enablers or Hegseth would probably call fobbits

I never heard it until now (former Army), I think it's in comparison to "service member" in that it covers all services but is more tough guy sounding than servicemember

I remember knowing it was wrong Trump wouldn't let them serve in term one. But I didn't get it viscerally until I worked with some seriously devoted (although aggravating) allies at a non-profit

Everyone else here makes great points but international students also generally pay full price, so it's also a way to kneecap colleges

Through magical thinking this means American jobs and nothing else happening at all. And through breathless, uncritical reporting that's basically admin PR it gets spread and repeated until it's just absorbed.

I'm curious why we already hated the guy who reported on "suckers and losers" (and then came back to that beat before this election with the story about equally appalling comments about Vanessa Guillen's funeral costs) and rightfully stuck by it?
