YYYYMMDD, scrub out the excess fat!
NJSpradlin@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Texas Gov. Greg Abbott says he'll deploy the National Guard across the state due to protests7·2 days agoLots of ‘Citizen Soldiers’ taken from their full time careers and family, at the (yuge) expense of tax payers, for no reason.
NJSpradlin@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Trump hints at invoking Insurrection Act amid LA protests12·3 days agoWhy’s he actively picking fights here, and stirring the pot? To further excite the populous to open ‘rebellion’, and to ‘justify’ martial law.
NJSpradlin@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Trump Says FEMA Phaseout to Begin After Hurricane Season8·3 days agoOnce he’s POTUS For Life, and has declared himself King, his lands will be nationalized and become tax payer funded.

lessmore* (edit: can’t believe I missed that one) than the gain. For this? Invoking total control of the US to crush dissent and his political opponents, and to push his agenda and further strip the US to the bone? Very likely worth it.

NJSpradlin@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Americans that are in the armed forces, What is the current feeling inside it?8·3 days agoYou’d be surprised, also regarding federalization for immigration enforcement and protest control. Who’s to say that the courts don’t weigh in on the side of CA and limit the use of CA-NG by the POTUS, and then he brings in a neighbor state’s NG instead? These are wild times, they even activated the Marines… on top of NG. This is crazy stuff.

Here’s another one, I didn’t have a watch and only had a flip phone back in college, too. I got pretty good at estimating the time based on shadows thrown by poles or trees and north. I joked (and won one bet, at least) that I could tell the time to within a 10 minutes increments. I mean, that’s not super challenging, now that I think about it again, due to the hourly schedule you’re already on at college. But, hey, it’s one of those goofy and ridiculous things you joke with your friends about.
I used to do something similar on my trips back from college, calculate my ETA based on the mile markers and my speed. I was damn near dead on, too!

Not even just that, they couldn’t have prevented it if they wanted to. The person who would have prevented it would have been fired and replaced with a stooge once Hegseth’s men told him to shut up and he refused.
