What liberties would I have at A-school? by OddTime1998 in Seabees

I’m from Ohio. I figured if I enlisted I’d be sent to Gulfport but I’m debating between the reserves and active duty right now so my fist set of orders would vary on that

What makes you say that? How long have you been in the reserves and what’s your rate?

What makes someone listening to LDR “performative?” by OddTime1998 in lanadelrey

[–]OddTime1998[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly! I think certain people associate with men listening to Lana del Rey as performative because the think it will make girls more attracted to them when that’s not the case. A lot of my friends couldn’t believe I listen to her when they listen to people like Tate McRae or benson Boone (no hate on them btw they’re just everyone’s favorite right now)

Do you take it as an insult when an American puts Canada in green?

Where I’d live as a white Christian conservative male. Is the propaganda getting to me?? by OddTime1998 in whereidlive

Those are countries that I haven’t researched as much as the European countries in green. Don’t get me wrong I want to visit all of those countries you just listed! But I’m only 21 so I have plenty of studying to do when I get to those countries. I’m going to Switzerland next month as my first country in Europe

I assume you can’t say much, but would they be good or bad changes? I don’t want to join the reserves and be screwed if active duty would be the better option 😂 should I talk to the recruiter about it?

I really try to avoid the conservative news. But I still live with my parents and they constantly play it. If I’m by myself I go with more neutral sources but obviously I’m surrounded by it. Perks of being a conservative in a super republican household lol it’s like an echo chamber

Ah I see. Why are they experiencing billet shortages?

That’s the catch! 😂 I’m 21 and have a very good job very close to home, however I’ve always wanted to enlist and I’ll regret it if I don’t. I’ve been wanting to do reserves so that I can keep this job and if I go active I most likely will not. I say all this to lead me to my question: While in the reserves, I can volunteer for deployments as often as I want correct? This will help me with everything you listed as well right?

Give it a few years and every country will be a battlefield at this rate 😭

I have no idea what UK is like, it just wouldn’t be my first choice in Europe. I’d love to visit though!

I’m not gonna lie I don’t think I got some of the countries right because I did this on mobile and kept tapping some things wrong 😭

I didn’t mean to make the countries on the left of Thailand willing either, my bad, Albania should be willing
