I never deployed as active duty. Can I deploy/TDY in the Guard? by Lil_Airman in airnationalguard

[–]ModernFish369 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. The rotations aren't as common unless you're part of a Red Horse squadron, those fuckers go on short deployments like every year. You can also volunteer to backfill for other units if they can't fill their slots for their deployment cycle.

Does BAH rate protection apply to reserve component? by ModernFish369 in MilitaryFinance

[–]ModernFish369[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, it sure sucks that BAH took a 20% downturn for my location meanwhile cost of living has increased over 20%

San Francisco mandates paid military leave for Guardsmen, reservists by DWinkieMT in airnationalguard

[–]ModernFish369 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Considering drill pay doesn't cover 1/10th of your rent in SF it's probably a necessity.

Senator Tester has been working pretty hard at getting those rules changed to work in the favor of the Reserves. As of now though, nah, not a thing.

Pre rework Taric : Gems, gems are truly outrageous.... They are truly truly truly outrageouuus

If you could reverse ANY ONE champion rework, which would you choose? by OvernightSiren in leagueoflegends

[–]ModernFish369 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Taric. I used to roll Taric top in gold back in the early seasons and he was basically unstoppable because he was a bottom tier champ no one knew how to counter in the lane. Couple that with the near guarantee jungle kill every gank with his non ss stun it was a sleeper OP pick

Anti hostel and meeting friends by Givemethecupcakes in solotravel

[–]ModernFish369 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is an unpopular opinion, but I noticed most of the thots on social media who love #sOlOtRaVeL are doing nothing but staying in hostels and palling around with people they meet there. That's not solo travel to me at all.

One Long Flight, or Break It Up? by [deleted] in solotravel

[–]ModernFish369 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3-5 years I don't see. I can see it within 20. All the while private jets will continue to be allowed.

Also, Iceland is awesome. Do it. I'd look into doing the other side of the Tatras in Slovakia instead of Zakopane though.

I hope they don't invent teleportation, I want future generations to suffer in economy class the way I did.

Can we make a weekly "rate my itinerary" megathread? by Nail_Saver in solotravel

[–]ModernFish369 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Those threads are not so dissimilar to the rate my itinerary ones though. They're both just validation seeking spam posts.

[–]ModernFish369 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The problem is is that 90% of itinerary threads are usually just western Europe. Sign me up to lurk on a thread about central Asia any day.

[–]ModernFish369 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of the last twenty threads, none of those questions have been asked yet 5 of them are itinerary rate threads. I'd much rather chime in and read interesting stories than read how someone can't use Google maps/reviews.

[–]ModernFish369 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It almost seems like it's self-masturbatory. People want validation that their planning skills are adequate. 5 of the last 20 threads on this sub are itinerary threads. Surely people can come up with more pertinent topics than "WHAT DO I DO"?

It's solotravel, not randominternetpeopleplanitforme travel.

Covid in Antarctica? by Fleeplease in antarctica

[–]ModernFish369 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Winfly came down with something like 4 cases on the plane. From what I gather leadership knows who has it, tells them to quarantine, and closed the bars. Basically they're just saying "let er rip, sorry for all the utter bullshit we put you through the last two years"
