Some parts of the military try to use the scouts as a vector for reaching potential recruits. definitely had a few army recruiters come by my troop. Also the rank structure, uniforms, focus on leadership, etc certainly looks a bit military-ish.

And fwiw, I don’t think the scouts does much to address incel behavior. Maybe it helps with gangs, idk.

This decision is made for most people by the electrician who wired the house. This seems like as decent a hypothesis as any for why they seem to prefer washers to the left

It’s very good. Whether it outstays its welcome depends on the individual. If you just beeline the main story it’s not all that long, but if you play it as intended it’s quite a long ride.

I don’t regret playing it at all, fwiw

It’s not. Trump is quite vocal about his plans to “reform” healthcare.

Is this a thing people say unironically? It’s as dumb as saying “just go be a movie star”

In my experience, this highly depends on the college. Mine really didn’t do shit for me as far as networking goes. And what connections i did make didn’t end up helping anyway. Maybe it starts mattering more once you’ve got some experience?

I’ve heard there’s an enormous demand for experienced tradespeople, but apprenticeships are pretty much full up…

Kind of a nobody-wins situation. Money to be made, just not by anyone on the ground floor.

Old racist votes for old racist.

More at 9.

If this is what it takes to sink Trump’s ship then I’ll fully give up on ever making sense of anything ever again.

Don’t get me wrong, that shit show was a national embarrassment, but it wasn’t surprising.

Whatever. Vote, folks.

Doesn’t help if students manually type the assignment requirements instead of just copying & pasting the entire document in there

I mean, presumably he isn’t just taking them to the junkyard… Someone out there is probably still driving those cars

Metal. A lot of people kinda freak out when they hear you like metal of any kind. And not in a good way.

Idk, it’s been a looong time since I listened to his show, but I always got the impression that a good performance there just meant smoking a bowl and telling some crude jokes… I think she’ll come across as presidential, which is exactly what that audience doesn’t want

Unfortunately, from what I’ve heard, there absolutely are weird old dudes who will notice and comment on it

I’m not sure he fully grasps the concept of his own mortality

They should try telling their franchisees that…

Damn, he was almost close to making a valid comment about how wildly overpriced funerals are today, then instead went full bore into super racism

Yikes. We’re all thinking about how covid disproportionately affects the elderly, but it also disproportionately affects people who live in denser population centers.

I don’t like talking about pandemics in terms of which political party they help, but I guess the dems may have been hit harder in the end…

Rachel sounds like a fun hang. Kinda like a reverse Karen.

Wow, looked it up just now; apparently the US is only #15, after a bunch of Pacific islands, and a couple others
