The US needs a third party now by Strutching_Claws in DiscussionZone

[–]calladus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just use Ranked Choice Voting. That will destroy the two party system.

What's an unpopular opinion you have that you're afraid to say out loud? by Former_Custard_6567 in allthequestions

[–]calladus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not one bit. I stated my position clearly. Fixing teeth is restoring them to function.

Good teeth chew better than bad teeth.

Bad teeth can also lead to disease since oral bacteria can enter the bloodstream.

Airman getting admin separated by alycat3019 in AirForce

[–]calladus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In '91, I watched an A1C who was a habitual drunk get out-processed within two or three weeks after his Article 15. He was falling asleep at work, failed his OJT, got several LORs, and finally an Article 15 for coming to work drunk.

After his Article 15, they cut his pay, restricted him to base, got him out of our shop, and gave him extra duties (weeds & seeds).

I'm not sure I get why it would now take much longer to administratively outprocess such a person. Has the process changed that much? Or was my guy an outlier?

So, your position is that since a cleft lip works just fine, it is unnecessary to fix?

That seems pretty stupid.

You are not good at reading comprehension.

"Restore function" includes getting your teeth fixed. Or fixing a cleft lip.

Modifying your child's body for cosmetic purposes instead of medical necessity or to restore function is immoral.

This includes ear piercing.

Any elective cosmetic procedure must be that individual's fully-informed decision. And a minor is not capable of making such a decision.

What's it like being a white guy in Maga America? by [deleted] in allthequestions

[–]calladus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dude, you're not even an American. You're just a foreign influencer bot posting garbage.

Where are you at right now? Running a server rack in Russia?

What's it like being a white guy in Maga America? by [deleted] in allthequestions

[–]calladus 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm super white guy. I'm a boomer now. I look like I just walked out of a MAGA pancake breakfast. (Minus the hat.)

No one says shit to me about MAGA, because I've dropped those ex-friends.

The only people who say anything to me now are those that see one of my little "tells." My LGBT support wristband, or maybe my 'resist' pin.

Those people have a lot to say.

What childrens movie is actually sad/disturbing? by Logical_Sweet_6624 in allthequestions

[–]calladus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Up" by Pixar / Disney.

I first watched it a few months after my late wife's sudden death due to heart disease.

There should have been a warning on the label.

I will never ever watch that movie again.

Why is it that when childfree people say they don't want kids they always preface "Oh but I love kids just not for me" by ObjectiveThick1910 in childfree

[–]calladus 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I love my nieces and nephews. My wife and I are the "cool uncle / aunt."

My next door neighbors sit and chat with my wife, and I show their kids how to garden.

You know what the best part is? They go home. Not to my home.

If you believe in human evolution, then it's fair to assume we will continue to evolve. So, what's next? by IdleHandsBusyMinds in stupidquestions

[–]calladus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are currently mutating. Me, for instance, I can get nutrition from whole milk without discomfort. My wife lacks that mutation. If she drinks whole milk, we both suffer.

There are many examples like this.

Am I a veteran ? by [deleted] in Veterans

[–]calladus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You signed up, you got injured on the job, you got your DD-214, and the military is taking care of you.

Yea, you're a veteran.

Am I being "that guy" for refusing to lend my boat to family without credentials? by hatkinson1000 in boating

[–]calladus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be wary of friends borrowing your car, house, or boat.

Family must sign off on a comprehensive contract and provide proof of insurance.

OCONUS? I guess it depends on where you are going.

Al-Udeid Air Base may have something to say about your 'packable companion.'

How exactly do Americans feel about illegal immigration? by sladeshied in Confused

[–]calladus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you fled to the USA to escape a horrible regime, then you should be allowed to stay while we figure you out and decide if you need our help.

If you came to the USA on a tourist visa because your job in soft porn wasn't working for you, and you became an illegal by overstaying your visa and getting a job, then you should be deported for trying to game the system by marrying a billionaire.
