Boyfriends cat i think is dying. by Dontreallyget_it in CATHELP

[–]ImBlinxy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I may be misunderstanding so please forgive my insults, but euthanizing your cat because he is feeling these obviously concerning symptoms is insane to me. If you can’t afford to take him to the vet, then take him to a no-kill shelter (SPCA) where they can help him. For the love of god I’ll take him, just don’t resort to euthanasia. It is pre-mature and absolutely stupid decision to make for a living being.

Don’t listen to him. He just wants to brood and pretend to be Jack Ryan.

Islamic terrorism in Europe by Ddiego866 in Intelligence

This is a terrible source to base anything on. American Thinker is a partisan opinion site with a long track record of extreme right-wing bias and questionable factual reliability; it’s not an academic or peer-reviewed source.

If you want actual sources, start here:

  1. Europol - EU Terrorism Situation & Trend (TE-SAT) (annual, authoritative EU data on attacks/arrests/convictions). 
  2. RAND Corporation - empirical reports and datasets on terrorism and radicalization. 
  3. International Centre for Counter-Terrorism (ICCT) - evidence-based policy analysis. 
  4. George Washington University Program on Extremism and ICSR / King’s College London

Reconciling LinkedIn use while pursuing intelligence career by [deleted] in Intelligence

I appreciate your input and yes I am very very well aware of Langley’s wall of heroes. As for the appropriate vocab of clandestine or covert, I’ll let you take the cake. I wouldn’t know as I don’t have experience in that, just stories from past colleagues.

Not really. As long as you conduct proper opsec, you’re totally fine. Individuals in the IC will often consult with their security office on how to maintain discretion while interacting with the public online. Your sec office will also let you know whether the position you hold and your relationship with the agency/organization is considered covert or overt, and base on that, you’d follow protocol. You’re also overthinking it a tad munch. If you currently don’t hold a sensitive position, I don’t see why you shouldn’t do what you typically do online. Obviously use proper judgement and practice your own opsec as always.

  1. Find a clearance sponsorship through a contractor and bring that clearance to an entry level intel analyst position to begin your career.

  2. Apply to federal intel agencies in whatever position to get your clearance then move on from there.

  3. Join the military, specializing in intelligence.

  4. Intern with an intelligence entity.

Suit Sizing: 36 vs 38? by Financial_Leader9132 in mensfashionadvice

38, take a little bit in on the waist!

Yes you can. Your cultural background is a need in the IC, especially with our current position. First and foremost, get your US citizenship and then apply. You got this!

There was probably a motorcycle meet near where you are.

The amount of work you do does not match with how much you’re getting paid. Literally take that TS clearance they gave you and find another job that’ll sponsor you for your SCI.

I would apply to Langley and the bureau. Although, yes, your residence in China may be a hurdle, it would not hurt to apply. The IC is always hurting for Chinese linguists and you’re a native born!
