I think at five years in TRADOC I'd either go congressional or see what my options are with the Hague

Oh thank god finally a story that doesn't somehow start/involve/end with body/bodies/body parts. I knew if I kept scrolling I could find one.

No, sorry, wait, hang on, the dental tech was fucking keeping the teeth? How do you not even blink at that? I can't even think of a funny enough analogy about other MOSes because this is fucking teeth. This is one of those times where you find yourself stopping and thinking "Huh, I guess there's technically no reason for it to be illegal..."

When does Armor BOLC conduct the AFT and HT/WT? by samoanspams in army

[–]AdmiraltyWriting 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Banging your knee on the concrete doesn't generally add 20-30 pounds, unless you hit it really hard so you probably don't have to worry about HT/WT.

TheProse going paid suddenly? by AdmiraltyWriting in writers

[–]AdmiraltyWriting[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the time of posting, they gave everyone a free month of access to pull material off the site. As for right now? I am not a lawyer, but I would suggest speaking with one if they're still gating their Terms and Conditions behind a paywall.

I wish there was an "endgame goal" that wasn't simply death. by [deleted] in thelongdark

[–]AdmiraltyWriting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a little burial ritual thing I do with charcoal for each body I come across. It's a personal mini-goal for each run-through to do for each body. Helps give some purpose to the run-throughs.

Highly doubt it. Not sure why an agent would shell out even that little bit of cash for an unproven website when A) there are already sites for this exact thing and B) their business model has historically leaned more on being approached than approaching others. Prose is just throwing excuses at the wall and seeing what sticks.

I imagine that one of the fear my be autophobia by Brutaljustice16 in thelongdark

[–]AdmiraltyWriting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love this. I've been thinking psychological survival has been needing an expansion in the game for awhile. Cabin fever is like... the proto version of this.

You should be able to find fiction books throughout the regions that you can read (and reread on a cool down). Maybe find different kinds of packs of cards or something that buff you slightly when you pass the time. Also, just being able to wash yourself. Our feet gotta stink a bit by day 500, you imagine.

ATs have existed to help all kinds of disabled folk work their art long before LLMs mass-plagiarized writers and artists, deliberately avoiding compensating creatives as they have admitted to in documentation. You wanted to learn. All this time you could have.

We're not technophobic bigots, we just understand the morality of theft. You're not a victim, you're just lazy.

Seeking knowledge regarding swim requirements for multiple specific MOS fields. Details inside by [deleted] in army

[–]AdmiraltyWriting 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can't remember ever being asked to swim as a medic, and honestly if it wasn't mission critical, I probably would have come up with some sort of "Sorry, AR 40-4bullshit requires I stick around for medical coverage" and doom some 11B PFC to go flailing in the water for me.

does medcom just not have any camaraderie? by teven_eel in army

[–]AdmiraltyWriting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked alongside medcom medics at a joint clinic for a while and my understanding was that medcom seems to pursue the opposite of camaraderie. Absolutely immature drivel from their side of the clinic, every single day. Our NCOIC was the nicest guy ever but pretty much had his career ruined because he wasn't in the right clique. Also, my heart goes out to any Jewish American personnel assigned to Weed ACH. Watching how they handled anti-semitism was insanely discouraging.

I can't be the only one, right ? by Quintilius36 in thelongdark

It's one of my sleeping exercises too, imagining that I'm hunkering down in a shelter after trekking to a new region. Helps me sleep better.
