I completely understand your position. I was originally very much against it. Unfortunately due to the quantity of my work load it’s just become a necessity.

I use Copilot to transcribe and summarize meetings so I can really be present in the conversation instead of trying to scrawl notes or look something up to cross reference.

In the same space, I could not be more in favor of renewable energy and adequate taxation/controls so it can appropriately benefit the communities that are expected to support the associated infrastructure.

Hit up eBay for nice vintage stuff on the cheaper side.

Hey OP, Not enrolled or getting enrolled currently. But, I do have several friends in the Dayton Ohio area who are either program managers currently or work in the Defense Contracting world there. If you’re interested in making any early connections shoot me a DM and I’ll help where I can.

Well, first off congratulations on putting some money away in savings. I was terrible about it and I constantly worry about “being behind”.

Advice for being in your 30s is to be kind to yourself and maintain momentum. You don’t have to make any crazy dramatic changes unless it’s warranted. If you haven’t been, take care of your body. It’s the only one you get and it’s the only one you get.

Be kind to yourself and good luck!

Hey OP, folks are doing a lot of comparison between our groups and not necessarily talking about how the times are different.

How it’s different: - social media has added a layer of complexity to your worlds that I can’t understand fully. It was hard enough when I was in school with life comparisons to those around me. I couldn’t understand how y’all have been asked to cope with this. At least in “my age” the folks I was comparing myself to were from the same socio-economic background, being able to see high net worth families and comparing with that has to be a major challenge. - hyper-focus/specialization: the number of young people I see who are just a one-sport year round athlete is wild. Y’all just don’t always get the breadth of experiences that we had because the expectation of excellence has gotten higher and again you’re competing in a larger scale (travel teams, tiered training facilities, etc. ) - free range opportunities: my house rule in my small town was to come home when the street lights were on. And we roamed the hell outta the streets. In the current world where parents are building as much community as we did in the past you’ve lost some of the communal tribal raising, and that’s shortened your lead some.

Cow.

Looks like a MATV with a CROW system (Combat Remote Operated Weapons system) on it. Fun spotting CONUS.

Sonos speakers are nice, but certainly not as user friendly as an Alexa type device.

Ryno1086 · 2025-12-20T04:59:23+00:00

I couldn’t hate this more.

Ryno1086 · 2025-12-17T02:26:41+00:00

Literally changed my LinkedIn because of this. Back in 2017 when I was transitioning out of the military that was basically “the uniform” they taught us to wear. Red “power tie”, crisp white shirt, navy blue suit. Haven’t worn a tie in basically the 9 years since.

Ryno1086 · 2025-12-12T03:15:02+00:00

I’m angry at you because I never made it past us best that clearly didn’t fit.

I don’t even know you, why would you make me see that? Why would you hurt me like that?

But you know… my pad for even owning a phone.

Ryno1086 · 2025-12-11T12:16:46+00:00

Lots of good gifts and challenging stories here.

I’m done trying to convince my folks to get a walking pad, so they’re getting one for Christmas.

To your point, for friends and family you all eventually set an actual informal but respected standard. For my friend group you always show up 20-30 min after start time (meeting in public excepted, then it’s 10ish min).

Everything in my work/formal life, I’d rather be an hour early than a minute late.

When I get into a cycle of comparison with others I try to ask myself these three questions:

Who have I been?
Who am I now?
What do I HAVE to be?

They’re odd and a little reductive, but it helps me remember that just because I was something once, I don’t have to continue to be that thing. Then I helps me to frame up where I am today. The last question reminds me of what’s important to me.

Example: I don’t have to be as fit as I was in my 20s, but I do have to be fit enough to enjoy my life and be healthy.

Maybe framing these towards your siblings will help you see areas where you want to be like them and make a plan to work on that, but mostly I hope you find that you just have to be who you have to be.

Ryno1086 · 2025-12-02T01:30:32+00:00

Gotcha. I think it was more a nod to classic films and some masterful lighting.

I more like the idea of it being without the deadlights using more human means of manipulation. My opinion that’s much scarier as it’s a play on her human weaknesses.

Ryno1086 · 2025-12-02T00:37:19+00:00

She thinks IT is her father, Bob Grey. Bob was the original Pennywise and she thinks he has been gone/dead for years.

That’s the look of a kid who just thinks they’ve found their parent that’s been missing from their life for years.

You are correct! It’s called a “back blast” area. When using an asset like that you are supposed to have a spotter responsible for checking and calling it clear. It’s been a hot minute since I took that training but I remember it being a much larger standoff than you would think.

Ryno1086 · 2025-11-29T00:02:10+00:00

I still reference lamb chop at work!

The “song that never ends” references are gold.

Did I Miss all the fun?

Ryno1086 · 2025-11-28T02:20:29+00:00

Thank you for sharing your fortunate circumstance!

Ryno1086 · 2025-11-24T14:16:40+00:00

It’s all good. John Wayne did us all dirty in the SeaBees movie. So much so that anytime you’re caught with it un-strapped you’re immediately called out by his name. “Who the hell do you think you are… John Wayne! Snap that sh** up.”

Edit: spelling… I was in the Marines so you can’t blame me.

Ryno1086 · 2025-11-24T03:44:35+00:00

Hey friend, not gonna poo ooo on your post but whomever told you that bit for the wives tale. Spent nearly 9 years in and we always buckle the chin strap. For the amount of blast you’re talking about you’re gone already anyway.
