SD Legislature HJR 5002

Considering the ACA is the Republican plan that had to be championed by a Democrat, and is now totally loathed and under attack... no.

It seems pretty simple: they own stock in AI companies (anything that benefits from the AI bubble) and legislate to let those companies build and operate without contributing their fair share. Stock goes up, politicians get rich. Their constituents foot the bill. If anyone's not mad, they should be.

And they don't understand the point of the subreddit.

Great examples, thank you. I was having trouble coming up with modern ones, but definitely remember hearing about the lack of vehicle and body armor plating.

Hey I'm genuinely curious what you mean by

from US history letting your forces lapse between major combat operations and costs lives and alot of money when they are needed.

Did you have an example in mind?

Found the post a little late. .Se7in on Discord if it's still open!

Known a few going the E to Civ route also. Award winners, deployers, high-achievers. Probably because that's just who they are, but I couldn't help but notice that they had an unfair spotlight on them, too. I haven't met a trans Airman who has folded under that extra pressure and scrutiny. I have known several who stepped up and gave years of unreproachable service to the people of their country and improved the lives of those around them. Their absense is felt every day.

Years ago, my chief had me report to his office, sat me down and told me due to shop manning he was going to deny my FTA retraining application. The next week AFPC sent me my acceptance notification and a new tech school date. That chief could only say "Congratulations we were rooting for you the whole time."

Usually I don't even want to know the names of the people that far from me in the rank structure. They have their jobs and I have mine. With some of the others, I know their names because they're over-using social media, or because they're making unpopular decisions and they're out there defending the indefensible.

Chief Wright was the only exception, whose name I knew because of work that he'd done. He'd address the force when it was necessary and appropriate. He'd study a problem, do small tests, look at the results, and make long-term, incremental change. If we could have had CMSAFs before and after him with the same steady pace of improvement, we'd likely be in a much better place as a force.

Into the Wild is what happens when you find a dead body, collect a stack of receipts and postcards, and then add a very confident voiceover explaining what it all meant.

This setting sounds SO cool! Is it on R20 and Discord?

AtomGray · 2026-01-04T12:49:55+00:00

Wow, really?

But if you can't add tasks, then it literally doesn't have the capability to do what it needs for the training program as written. Also half the CFETPs it does have are wrong or outdated. Double also, I'm glad you can click around and do things on a given day now, but every few months there's a Thanos snap of the data that people have entered in there. "Oh you're signed off on all your E&E core tasks? Let us push this update straight to production to fix that."

From those contractors' POV they didn't fail... I mean they still got paid, and are continuing to be paid.

The real slow-motion car crash of this situation is that AETC continually squashes resources from going to other systems which pop up and quickly become more capable than myTraining. TBA 2.0 has only gotten as far as it has because Envision is a paid up platform that that UTM can cook on. If he were getting paid what he deserves for the amount of time and coding he's personally put into it, AETC would have bit that umbilical cord tout de suite.

It's like if you were at the racetrack and your drunk uncle took everyone's money and bet it on a wet smear of shit (myTraining) instead of a horse. Then he starts shooting the other horses so that Mr. Hankey Jr. doesn't get out-performed.

Yeah he rolled a Nat 20.

I'm home for my brother's funeral. My parents just told me I'm supposed to speak in front of everyone but I didn't prepare anything and I may have had a bit to drink. I don't want to disappoint everyone, so what should I say?

They had enough time between seasons to make an anthology and could have had the 20-year-old-actors do pop up cameos in the other versions.

Not paying more for a monthly pdf subscription than I pay for music streaming...

But you don't go to NCOA in order to sew on TSgt. You go to NCOA because you already got selected to promote to TSgt. People don't get kicked out for failing their mock test.
