When you are part of a company that has cult-like behavior, that can mean something. Later as you get to understanding your unique value as an adult this sort of thing becomes laughable. I've been in all points of this compass while i've been on MTF and its predecessor MTS.

I forgot to add this to my earlier response...and know this comes from a place of love.... ----What country club do you belong?

Yeah, if you are in the pool of people with essential skills that require the bosses to worry if you leave, people can get away with that sort of thing. In a place where your skills are very fungible and people at the top are actively cheering on AI and AGI's arrival so they don't have to deal with your kid's illnesses, your need for mental breaks, or your "religious" observances, its viewed as a discriminator for getting rid of oxygen thieves.

queue up the part of Red Dawn where the two Cuban officers are talking to the American Mayor and they comment to each other that this town is indeed fortunate to have a shepherd such as this.

So, the federal contracting world has a great divide; between the FAR people who work onsite with clients who have to take time off according to a tightly controlled set of rules which does not include sick leave but rather pooled time off which treats an annual vacation the same as COVID; and the back office corporate types who have "unlimited" leave. I would rather be in the first group because if your corporation isn't applying rules to something that means they can judge you about how you use it. "Unlimited" is a trap. So, anything that gives you a day where it isn't your guilt complex about slacking requiring you to not work, is a good thing.

Are they going to Tehran tonight?

I guess its a game for pitt to feel better about themselves before they leave town.

On the Synth Britannia documentary large-framed singer Alyson Moyet referred to herself as "Dark horse from Basildon" meaning not someone you would think was attractive. its somewhere in here

They have something else in common don't they These centrist women on a group chat are leading Democrats in 2025

This is exactly how I feel. Someone not crazy who can be generic non-MAGA candidate is what I was looking for. The minimum requirement is they do not fumble the ball. "Dem candidate for AG in Virginia, costs them the majority in the House and Senate and dooms democracy because of this stupid mistake" would be the headline I dread. Edit: then again any number of GOP mistakes just like that have been made since 2015.

From a coming Blue Wave perspective...not sure if VA dem Primary last night tells us a lot but the more Prog candidate won LT Gov and the guy I picked as a bulwark voter won as AG. Not by a lot in either case. Turnout was mild which tells you that its June.

a lot of people dusting off the "Black Bush" sketch links on youtube.

You guys don't remember the flagpole being in play? Get some of that stuff that helps your memory I can't seem to recall the name of it...

it had its charms. Nice memory: taking advantage of my veterans status to get in free around 1991-1992. After an appointment at the Detroit Military Processing Station headed to center field bleachers, lay out on one of the bleacher benches to take a nap until a hot dog vendor approached me around 11:30 and ask I "sir, was ready for his luncheon". I thought that was hilarious.

I hope they don't. I'd hate to worry about the safety of Tigers employees.

Would he be cool if we visited his house with firearms?

Not validating this...but interesting

Its interesting to see the tension between Tulsi and Tucker Russian faction and the Vegas and other zionist factions. It might cost Comrade Tulsi her job.
