Conspicuously absent from that document is literally anything about primary job performance. Basically if you want to get promoted, know how to make yourself look as good as possible on paper: strats additional duties awards squadron/group positions in the immediate orbit of the commander and don't you dare fuck up the formatting

I happily don't wear a mask unless it's absolutely a requirement to do something (air travel, etc.) That said, I constantly hear your complaint from the same crowd who have long preached that it didn't matter what anyone else does, so long as they didn't force masks or vaccines on anyone else. Ted Cruz, our favorite Canadian-turned-Texan, recently went on a tirade against Mr. T of all people, because Mr. T publicly said he was going to continue to social distance. Ted Cruz apparently still cares, and it seems like you really do care, a lot, about what other people around you are doing. I saw westerners in Kabul, a decade ago, exercising outdoors with masks on (very poor air quality, leaded gas in shitty generators, etc.) While I found that precaution excessive, it didn't bother me to the point that I'd go online and rail against it. If a middle-schooler wants to run a race in a mask, or get a dumb haircut, or wear stupid clothes, then so be it.

A divorce lawyer revealed the top 5 professions a woman should avoid marrying in a now-viral TikTok Meanwhile, pilots, including those who work in the military, have a lot of responsibility as they are "in control of like 150, 200 people's lives at a time," she added. "And they tend to be very narcissistic and very controlling." What is your point bitch, go make me a sandwich...

I view "Hunter getting indicted soon" the same way I viewed "Trump getting indicted soon". I'll believe it when someone actually files charges.

In other news home fitness is now associated with the far right.

We have two choices: hot garbage article that at least points to a real phenomenon (although lacking amplifying data to make it useful), or MSNBC / CNN propaganda repeating without question everything Fauci says and hiding conflicting information. Worth noting how many “hot garbage conspiracies” have turned out to be true, so although the article is admittedly not great we have a track record that shouldn’t be ignored. I wish there was a middle way, but those voices have been censored, and the censorship has come exclusively from the left. Good luck finding objective data, which should be easily available, on whether US military members had more, less or the same number of heart attacks in the past 18 months compared to the prior 18.

Kept scrolling in that article looking for any mention of what the base rate of heart anomalies in athletes was before the vaccine.. no luck. Seems like an important data point to have if you're going to try to claim a sudden spike. Strangely, the article kept insinuating that it was zero prior to the vaccine which I think we both know is rather silly. I don't disagree with you that the democrats are off their rocker over mandates and covid scare tactics, but this article is hot garbage.

That documentary didn't mention the incredible lack of experience or requirements for foreign pilots, did it? I watched it and remember them doing nothing but blame Boeing.

Agree. The insanity only ends when democrats are voted out. Still administering the EUA vaccine at my base, no FDA approved vaccine anywhere to be found. And here’s a fun article about how many athletes are suffering heart attacks. I get it’s a bit sensational, but there is no objective reporting anymore.

I honestly don't care about what adults do. I do care about young impressionable kids having this forced on them by their parents who are still cowering in the corner on this.

This thread got going again because of mandates. The mandates for Airline travel, and then Philadelphia's new mandate. The examples of individual's showcasing their mask lunacy are provided to demonstrate how messed up some people's heads have gotten because of all this. Although you are absolutely right that I don't care what they do personally as individuals, their hysteria and idiocy is relevant because it impacts public policy (i.e. mask mandates that I'm ordered to follow.) There are ample mitigation resources and strategies available to everyone. People can make choices for themselves. And when/if we are allowed to, you won't hear a peep from me. But for now, unfortunately, that group -- the covidian psychos -- are still driving stupid, irrational policies that everyone has to follow.

Ahh...missing the point. Young kids are naive and will follow their parents idiotic "advice"

Here’s the full length interview. Simply incredible. “Wait until people see this interview. You’re going to get mail.” ”I might get some female.” JFC what a stud.

Nearly spat out my beverage in the last 2 seconds. Talk about unexpected!

I’m not exactly sure of their strategy? Maybe Nsplayr can give us an honest opinion? I truly think it’s just that the far left wing of their party (AOC types) are controlling the agenda and message. AOC has literally said the key their success is the party going further left.

I haven’t seen any actual chemical weapon reports lately, but they de facto tried by hitting a storage facility for like 4 tons of nitric acid (totally nasty for people)…except the wind blew it back over the russian positions. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Although, they’ll probably just use it as the narrative that Ukrainians used chem weapons against them. 4-D chess.

I've wandered into and out airport sans mask. My only encounter with anyone making a comment was a TSA lady at the Known Crew Member entry who asked "Do you have a mask?". I replied "Yes" and kept walking. She laughed.

Not saying you won’t, but I’ve known several people with your attitude and far more aviation experience than you prior to UPT who didn’t get fighters (including some Guard who were hired and sent to UPT by fighter units).

This probably could also go in “What’s wrong with the Air Force”.

Not that I necessarily disagree, but has there ever been a time in history when an older generation has not thought less of a younger one? That they were lacking in some intangible, immeasurably quality that the older generation exudes and that the younger generation has utterly failed to demonstrate? I think not. Put me in the camp of believing that the kids are alright and will grow up to shit on the next generation after them as reliably as we shit on them now.

At my kids middle school track meet there were more than two hands worth of kids running sprints/long distances in masks. Outside track. We haven't had a mask requirement in school here for almost a year now. We've messed up a giant chunk of the population. Have a coworker who's sibling's family have isolated since this kicked off years ago. Both work from home with amazon and IBM. Groceries are delivered and disenfected. They have two toddlers who haven't been outside the home for other than doctors visits. They are leaving the house next week to drive to Cali so there toddlers can be part of the vaccine study on under 5's.
