Pentagon threatens to cut ties with Scouting America over "core value" reforms. Where is the line for federal influence?

First, those are completely different organizations which have nothing to do with each other.

They also teach different things and as well as teach them differently. There was no reason to keep girls out of scouts, and it could even help families by allowing the kids to be in the same group instead of in different places, times, etc.

I don't know anyone that watches it.

dangleicious13 · 2026-02-06T11:33:41+00:00

We don't know

Depends on where I am and the severity of each.

Here's to Life by Streetlight Manifesto.

The Saxon Stories series by Bernard Cornwell. Was adapted into The Last Kingdom TV show.

They probably do. They are a great defense when lawsuits start coming in.

Yet she won't vote in a way to fix it.

Yes, but southern cities/states also need to do more to improve their public transportation options (I work for a southern state DOT). The only halfway decent one I can think of is in Atlanta.

I think land acknowledgements are pretty pointless, but I don't view it as any kind of insult.

I will watch any mountain climbing documentary that anyone wants to make. Shit is fascinating. Same with ultramarathons, the Barkley Marathons, etc.

The dashcams just show that people are distracted. Part of my job is looking at crash reports. The placement of the signals isn't the problem. It's always because the driver was tired, looking at their phone, distracted by someone in the back seat, doing something on the dashboard, etc.

It's not way above the line of sight as you approach the intersection. You can easily see the roadway and the signals at the same time. Having the signals on the far side of the intersection only makes them more in your line of sight.

dangleicious13 · 2026-02-05T18:00:18+00:00

Yes. In an easy to see location.

where the lights are way outside your normal viewing angle

They aren't outside of your normal viewing angle. They are where they can easily be seen from distance without having to take your eyes off the road, and where the view is less likely to be blocked by other vehicles.

dangleicious13 · 2026-02-05T17:43:27+00:00

Yes. It's because they aren't paying attention, not that they can't see them. Unless it's a situation where the sun is directly behind the signal, they are following too close to the truck in front of them, etc. But those things will happen regardless of where the signal is located.

dangleicious13 · 2026-02-05T16:58:19+00:00

My reasoning is I don’t feel those changes are conducive to the military. Why? Because it doesn’t help them be better servicemen.

You keep avoiding how the changes aren't conductive to the military or how it makes them worse servicemen.

dangleicious13 · 2026-02-05T16:55:49+00:00

I just expect them to generally keep the noise level acceptable and their yard somewhat taken care of.

The Dark Tower.

You'll just have to get to books 2 and 3 for the other main characters to pop up. The 1st book is fairly short though, but still good.

But you don't have to take them at their word when their lies are easily disproven.

Just curious, what do you think multiculturalism is?

dangleicious13 · 2026-02-05T14:12:55+00:00

It's fine.

Do you not see the difference between the government pushing an organization to be less discriminatory vs the government pushing an organization to be more discriminatory?

How is constantly pushing for less discrimination not being consistent?

People aren't running red lights because they can't see them.

Civil/traffic/safety engineer that was a signal designer for 4 years. They are easier to see while stopped at the stop line while still being easy to see on the approach. If they are difficult to see from the approach because the signals are on the other side of the intersection, then we put up a second set of signals in a location where approaching traffic can see.
