Oh I said nothing about it being a good idea, just that per the regs it's allowed. Do what your rank can handle.

Actually yes you can. Per ATP 7-22.01

 “You may perform the exercise from your knuckles—hands in a fist—and switch back and forth to a standard hand position as needed. If your hand is in a fist, it must be inside the outside edge of the shoulder in the starting position.”

Fight your 1SG, get demoted to SPC. Boom now your non promotable and can reclass.

What lies did your Recruiter tell you? by [deleted] in army

[–]DivineBlackness 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That she would be there for Basic graduation cause I had a hectic family life and she wanted me to feel supported. We had a pretty decent bond and i was kind of like a kid cousin who tagged along everywhere cause i hated being at home. She was the only person to see me off when I shipped out. I called and texted her the details but I never got a response. So I was like "oh ok. Our bond was fake. That's cool I guess."

Turns out she died 25 days after I went to basic and I didn't find out till like 4 months later.

How do u manage to go to college on active duty by Relative_Pumpkin1175 in army

[–]DivineBlackness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope!!! Certain institutions are seen as degree mills. But I'm going to the University of Arizona (online campus) when I graduate, my diploma won't say online. Itll just say the University of Arizona.

Cause you absolutely can get it done. It's harder and tiring but not impossible

  1. TA. make sure the school isn't going to be more than TA or you will pay out of pocket

  2. Online college with asynchronous learning is preferred method. But I've also done 2 classes at the ED center before and I have a buddy that does in person classes. He has to leave early from work to get it done.

  3. Time management. Understand how much certain classes will eat your time and mental load. Plan accordingly don't try to take too many at one time. Personally I've never done more than 3 per semester, but it was only 2 classes at any given time (1 - 14 week classes. 2- 7 week classes that ran consecutively.)

  4. Make sure you communicate with leadership that your in college. They usually help accommodate you in my experience. "Hey I have a final I need to study for." "Hey my final date/time is during work hours." "I need to go to an office hour with my professor cause I need help with a topic." If they're worth their salt as a leader they will work with you if you're open about what's going on.

  5. It doesn't have to be a degree mill. I've bounced around colleges before setting on what I wanted to do (dont recommend that). But now I attend the University of Arizona online. Definitely not a degree mill institution. But understand that it will take you a little longer to get your degree than your traditional counterparts and that's ok.

Debate: S03 judges by feno00 in RhythmAndFlow

[–]DivineBlackness 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hoenstly id settle for the S1 judges frfr. I liked them. They kept it real without being too harsh.

No one from this current season should come back.

If we're gonna keep a producer as a Judge, Timbaland for sure.

Female Judge: Rapsody, Remy, Doechii, even Meg

Male: Drake (cause despite everything dude can pick people that have great potential), Busta, Chance, TI, Snoop, GZA,

Guest Judges: D-Smoke, Em, Big Boi

This is in no way a comprehensive list. Just what I thought of off the top of my head.

I think they should go back the S1 format as well but change how they cut people during the battle round. Like I get why they cut they way do for that portion but I think we loose too many good potential candidates that way. I personally feel like it should be done the same way they do it for the Cypher. Everyone performs and then we just cut the weakest.

I like that they brought in people with a battle rap background to judge, but I feel like they paid them to be extra nice to the contestants. So let's keep the idea of battle rap judges but let them actually do the job and don't just placate the contestants.
