A couch. Is this like one of JD Vance’s fantasies? To be fucked by a couch?

That explains why no one laughs at my jokes

Ah. Good. The one thing I was worried about in a nuclear war was my fucking flight plans.

Yeah. I’ve been screened. That one gives me between 20-24 depending on a couple of the middle of the road answers. There’s another one that’s much longer that highlights the ADHD and general anxiety traits, but the two categories ASD rates high on are low scores.

I mean I get it. I’m an engineer, I overanalyze the shit out of everything, I’m anxious socially, I get bored as shit easily, I’m terrified of effort yielding no results. It’s paradoxical in my head: I am lonely, crave social interaction, but I’m so terrified of it I avoid opportunities as much as possible.

Look man

Y’all know far too much for this. I’m 34, my ex cheated on me 5 years (or 6 idk, I lost track) and have gotten laid once in that time.

It doesn’t help i have ADHD with some weird mental thing preventing me from trying to hook up with anyone for any reason

Wait, no, I think my ex and I did try in a pool once but when they say “pool closed” we assumed that meant cause no staff was around

Chess gambling ?

Is this like computer chess or chess where the board is in a certain configuration, or two dudes just going at it?

I can’t imagine how you’d make a wager. Unless you, yourself are gambling against someone else. Then I guess it doesn’t matter, but that isn’t really gambling it’s just one person paying another to play chess?

That’s a good point. The gestapo didn’t have large numbers either did they?

People in America don’t really know the difference, but we do learn about the Storm Troopers/Brownshirts, and the SS. The Gestapo was kind of lumped in with the military and paramilitaries.

Edit: Thinking about it. We’re at the stage where feds are the SS. The Gestapo was pretty much absorbed into the SS.

If hot tub handjobs really are a thing I’ve wasted my life

Did anyone having Pakistan and India going hot on 2025 bingo card?

Has there been a actual dogfight since Vietnam?

That’s modern dogfighting. Don’t viate enemy airspace so ground AA can’t get you. Rely on BVR missiles because if you are in range with guns something went terribly wrong

Man if I survive to 2028, and have any money left, those cars are sexy

The US Marshals are under control of the Executive Branch.

The US Marshals are not friendly or beholden to the courts.

US Judges have the authority to deputize as they need to see judicial orders carried out. The Supreme Court has its own - the Marshal of the Supreme Court.

The US Marshals are basically security escorts for high risk assets, they won’t be making arrests anytime soon.

Oh man, let me know when the rewards are named so I can give a speech.

First, I’d like to thank ADHD

TIL. Good. Cause I liked my spaceship dragon

Wait i can’t fly on Pals now?

Does that mean that Ark can’t fly on dinosaurs?

Good. But I don’t agree with anyone I know that Florida “isn’t that bad.”

I don’t have a map of statistics where bad shit happens, but if I did, Florida would stand out.

It’s a fucking swamp. Humans aren’t meant for that environment. (Actually, I don’t know if humans ever naturally adjusted to swamps, it just seems like tons of horrible ways to die)

I gotta say man, I really don’t like you. You’ve been antagonistic this entire conversation, and now you’re pointing the finger at me for, well, what, exactly?

I enjoy airshows. I enjoy the absolute absurdness of military hardware. I look for joy in things that are absolutely dreadful. In case you haven’t noticed, we’re all plenty aware of how shit things are. If we all just agreed there was nothing worth fighting the fascists for, then why would this post even exist?

But now, you’ve distracted me from my original point. Flight hours are flight hours. Experience is experience. That has value. This military parade doesn’t.

Man that’s such a small detail I glossed over, that they can bar them from courthouses.

Hold on, you know that TOPGUN is in Nevada right?

And the Blue Angels are probably the best known propaganda wing.

You don’t train your force on the aircraft carriers, so that they don’t destroy the plane the first landing attempt. What are we even arguing about again?

Flight hours are flight hours. Experience is experience. They get to advertise and feel macho for a bit. I don’t like the propaganda machine anymore than anyone, but I do prefer it when the public gets at least entertainment out of it.
