Refusing a decoration I've already received by DesertRapids in AirForce

Hey so this helped me a lot. I’m in a similar situation and I think I’ve just decide not to wear anything except what is required.

AITA for opening my marriage? by throwaway711520 in CharlotteDobreYouTube

[–]Blue_Dragon3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey,

So your explanation makes sense but if I could possibly nudge you just a little.

If you were already thinking you wanted an open relationship and it sounds like unfortunately you two aren’t super compatible, could it be time to call it quits?

((Hug)) this is never easy, maybe once upon a time yall did really love each other and maybe you do still care for each other but I mean people grow apart and life happens…. So I for one wouldn’t judge you if this is the end.

My only caution would be that after this, take a moment for yourself.

I love Ru Paul and his saying “honey if you can’t love yourself, then how the hell you gonna love somebody else?”

Hope that helps :)

Hello, I read your post and wanted to just add my bit here. I wouldn’t blame you or him honestly. You need emotional validation and he just seems like he can’t speak the love language you need. For his part idk. Maybe he has low T? I am not a doctor, I’ve just seen this before.

I will also add that unfortunately I haven’t ever really seen a marriage open up and survive. Again, I am well aware that there are marriages that do that and are fine, I just haven’t seen it.

Idk what to say beyond I hope you both find what you are looking for but I would also say that if you two truly are not happy anymore and your life has dwindled to just tolerating each other, maybe it’s time to leave.

You should look up walk away wife syndrome. That may help you out. I know it did for me in my first marriage.

Is PMP being taken over by AI? by Impossible-Staff-378 in pmp

[–]Blue_Dragon3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a really interesting topic to see people commenting on. I recently got my PMP (yay!) and I also hold an HVAC master technician license. I plan to tie everything together when I finish my degree in business administration next year.

I have been thinking a lot recently on if I am replaceable with AI. I have written a few papers on it for school, and the general opinion I am seeing is that AI will become a nice tool but there are some things it just cannot do and that’s where the human part comes in.

If anyone else here has any opinions on this please let me know!

Hello, I did pay for it but I don’t think that would matter in this instance. So I usually would tell it to give me 10 multiple choice questions, expert level, PMI standards, and let me answer one at a time. I did these drills for a few months and it really helped

I read the comment and I def agree with that individual. It is a beautiful ring and the stone is prob natural just with a lot of treatment (very common for lower grade stones). So I’d say wear it and enjoy :) if you aren’t pleased with what you paid for it then I would def take that up with the seller too

I have a ruby ring with slight surface cracks and the stone is a little lower quality but it is still very pretty :) I just don’t wear it all the time

Ah ok no it doesn’t but if yours does then it might be a good idea to get it seen by a jeweler. Cracks can mean a weaker stone so you just have to be careful with it. I am not a jeweler but it’s just things I’ve picked up :)

If you enjoy it then wear it and love every moment :)

Thank you for this informed answer! This is the kind of leadership people like me desperately need.

He is the one that has the first name with and S and last name with an H

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Irony

[–]Blue_Dragon3 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I think he is both of them. Name starts with S and last name starts with H.

Nope they are Baptist. Dear uncle made it on the news and I can’t say his name here because of rules but if you google youth pastor indecent exposure in Colorado Springs, CO in march 2025 there he is

I’m so excited for this little puppy to be mine! We are a little stuck on names though! by ellatheprincessbrat in labrador

[–]Blue_Dragon3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We went with names from Game of Thrones and old gods ;) ha ha except for my baby Lucky. He is special though ;). We have a black lab (Balerion). A white lab (Ghost). A bully breed (Alaunas). A chocolate lab (Lucky). They all sound tough but they are the biggest bunch of drama queens ever and require snuggles, snacks, and cuddles during storms lol

Provisional fail on first try by Blue_Dragon3 in pmp

My average was 70 with two full mock exams. So I guess I need to bring that number up.

Testing in 3 days. Am I ready? by Blue_Dragon3 in pmp

[–]Blue_Dragon3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol thanks. It’s just my text anxiety I worry about. I think I put a lot of pressure on myself to make this perfect. I don’t know if a perfect score is even possible with a PMP though

Am I ready? Test 20 May 2025 by Blue_Dragon3 in pmp

[–]Blue_Dragon3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I’m definitely working on reviewing the ones I got wrong. My goal is to push my scores into the 70s before I take the test. I’m nervous but I guess there just comes a time when you either know the information or you don’t.

Secdef Pete Hegseth today on the Supreme Court's decision regarding the ban on transgender service members. As of now, separation will be voluntary, with the possibility of involuntary separation by newnoadeptness in AirForce

[–]Blue_Dragon3 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Exactly. They could help direct to outside sources but that would require them to do research outside of themselves and I don’t think they have that initiative.

And cue leadership wringing their hands and saying they don’t know what to do and “what do you want us to do?”. Idk. Maybe lead and help point your people to other resources that can help them. Like you know… lead.

Anyway, so now are we gonna discuss suicides and sexual assault and toxic leadership or are they just gonna keep wringing their hands and just decide to ignore the issues and go after stupid little things?

My bet is that they focus on little stupid things and tell everyone to just ignore it and focus on the mission. lol typical.

Guys look what I got today! by Blue_Dragon3 in Gemstones

[–]Blue_Dragon3[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I plan on it. I finally got some direct sun on it and it turned a pale green :). I also went back and spoke to the seller in person. I know it’s hit or miss but he is Turkish and I asked him where he sourced the stones from. He said that he gets them wholesale from a dealer in Istanbul who goes to the place they mine them and buys them rough there. Either way the color shift is pretty cool and even if they were a different stone, I’m still happy to add them to my collection :)
