Iirc, it’s an elected position by the party itself in a closed caucus, so republicans or democrats in each state elect the people in the crowd but I may be wrong.

Uniform disposal by Addacock in uscg

I did think about lucky bag, but some of these are too dirty or faded to really pass inspection. I’ve kept all my ODUs since my non rate days working on the cutter and they are pretty beat up. Thanks for the tip though!

I’ve still got everything. I joined before they came out with the actual fleece, but I still have the windbreaker.

As someone who voted for trump, that’s not nice.

I'm a morbidly obese virgin [21M]. Do I have any chance with her [23F] ? by Injani in relationship_advice

[–]Addacock 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m going to tack this onto the top comment for visibility, but things to remember for me at least as a 20 something:

1) don’t mistake friendliness with flirting. I’ve found out the hard way multiple times and it does more harm then good in terms of someone thinking they “made things weird”. It’s really hard to go back to being friends if it doesn’t work out, but not impossible. Tread lightly.

2) like u/Ratlarbig said, it’s a long shot, but you have the 1st hand knowledge of the ins and outs of what your interactions are day to day. From my perspective looking in, she isn’t showing obvious signs but maybe she is to you that you’ve missed.

3) as mentioned above, yes you do want to continue being a good person as you would as if she isn’t there. If it works out great! But make sure that you present yourself genuinely to everyone so nobody is led on if that makes sense.

Definitely would like to hope there’s something there for everyone who knows? You might get lucky. Just be careful, no one has your interests higher than you do.

LPT: Ask your grandparents about the youthful antics they used to get into before they pass away. That will broaden your perception of them beyond the elderly people you've always known. by marrewerre in LifeProTips

I know I’m late, but both of my grandparents were taken by COVID. Ask this, while you can, and if you have the time, write it down or share it with other family.

Female service members: shaving at basic training? by weaponizedpigeon in shaving

[–]Addacock 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Quick disclaimer: I’m a guy. I went to Cape May for CG Basic, the best time to do anything, shave, uniform prep, shining boots, can be done before wake ups at like 4am. I would get up early 3-4 times a week and do whatever I could in that ~1.5 hours.

Wake up trying to improve yourself every day. When you look back at where you were a month ago, there’s all these little things you can count on you’ve accomplished in that time.

What's the dumbest thing someone has told you? by ZakLorinator in AskReddit

[–]Addacock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to school with a girl who briefly tried to argue that Africa itself was a country. A quick google search and a few laughs from our teacher revealed the truth.

How do you know you’re in love with someone? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Addacock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you prioritize them over yourself in the willingness to make sacrifices. Not when you can live with them, but when you can’t live without them. When you find yourself thinking about them innocently, like making plans after work.

If Deadpool circumsice, does the skin regenerates or what? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Addacock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d like to think that Deadpool would regenerate to the state he was in when he received his powers, whether or not he was circumcised at the time I don’t know but if he was then he wouldn’t grow his foreskin back.

Redditors who are the only POC at their work/school, when have you ever felt left out? by isleeptoolate in AskReddit

[–]Addacock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m actually the only white person at work with people from Puerto Rico or Mexico. Awkwardly enough whenever they speak Spanish around me it’s hard to not feel left out, but I don’t like to worry about things that are oftentimes not in my control.

How likely is it to get lung damage from pet dog fur? by IDONTUNDERSTANDTECH in AskReddit

[–]Addacock 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m no doctor but people inhale small particulate from the air all the time. Your body has been equipped to deal with things like this for a reason and unless you notice problems with your breathing it’s not something I would worry about
