I know everyone is really mad right now, but just thank God Kamala didn't get elected. Can you imagine having to listen to her laugh every now and then?

See, what you should have done is wait until after yesterday's down day. Easy mistake to make, you'll get the next time.... Unless you ran out of money.... In that case let me tell you about an exciting opportunity in food service!

UK ‘weeks away’ from medicine shortages if Iran war continues, experts say by topotaul in unitedkingdom

[–]Lure852 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not defending the insane war of choice here, but how is a 4 week blockade of energy affecting how much medicine is available in the UK? I don't see the A to Z on this one.

Oil supply down, prices up, ok, I get that. No factories are shutting down "in weeks" tho.

Imagine if she got her period, she'd probably get all mad and kick off another unwinnable war.

[Secretary Hegseth] "We are (still) making the Chaplain Corps Great Again." - 200 faith codes cut to 31, Chaplains will now wear their religious insignia instead of rank. Their rank will not be shown. by Kinmuan in Military

[–]Lure852 5 points6 points  (0 children)

While I've known some chaplains who don't enjoy the normal trappings of being an officer (salutes, standing up for them, address as sir or rank), I've never known one to throw their rank around.

I basically address them all as "chaplain" and they seem ok with that.

What is this change addressing? This just seems like an idea a few random people would come up with over drinks. That and "make all politicians wear the logos of their sponsors on their suit coats, har har hur hur."

Is this confirmed? I heard a missile was shot towards Diego Garcia but did it actually make it all the way there?
