Listening to this book on WWI has again put me to thinking about my grandma’s uncle Anthony.

He served in Europe for almost a year before he died, and his service card says he was “cited for gallantry.” So I’m going to ask the National Archives St. Louis if they have more info on that citation.

The US already got a do over. A mulligan. A second chance.

Much of the world, especially US allies, were ready to write off Trump’s first term as a fluke.

The American people’s choice to put him back in power—as a convicted felon, after an openly bigoted, anti-democracy campaign—showed it was not.
This is the part many Americans -- including the Bezosites at the Washington Post -- don't understand. Canadians don't see this just as a Trump thing. It's that America elected him twice, and the second time with an even bigger mandate.

The problem we're addressing is America, not Trump.
"Out of spite for President Donald Trump, Carney is accelerating the decoupling of a trade bloc that has generated enormous prosperity for North America." Seriously, Wapo editorial - you're going with Canadian spite? www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

I am somewhat discouraged that the response to this on this website has been "hell yeah women can do anything, make all the tests gender-neutral".

Because female Marines are a very self-selected group, and when we tried a gender-neutral test Army-wide... a lot of women were going to get kicked out.
We obtained early data from the Marine Corps’ new fitness standards for women in combat roles after Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth ordered that women serving in combat jobs be scored against the male fitness test standard. thewarhorse.org/hegseth-mari...
Hegseth Made the Fitness Test Harder for Women in Combat Roles. Most Female Marines Are Passing
Data shows almost all Marine females serving in combat roles have met or exceeded Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's new physical fitness standard.

If you want to protect your liver - a detoxing miracle that humans have yet to replicate - get your Hepatitis A and B vaccines! Bonus: they also prevent cancer!!

Toxicologist here. If you have a working liver and kidneys then you are already “detoxing.” Supplement use is one of the leading causes of liver and kidney failure. The only thing you’re getting rid of when you fall for these predatory wellness grifts is your money.

I know I give European countries shit for dumping all the legwork on Germans to amend ties with Jews, but at least it's not a crime to live there and mingle with other Europeans.

In some MENA countries, Jews aren't allowed to do business with their neighbours on fear of death.

One of the reasons why many MENA Israelis, who comprise over half of its population, are so resentful of Palestinians is because the Muslim world has done even less to repair relations with Jews than Europe has.

So, having binged through a number of her videos, she talks a lot about healing your relationship with cleaning so it’s one of self-care and not resentment. And I realized something.

I resent self-care. I resent needing it, I resent its cyclical nature.

Really not sure how to process this.

I actually feel like the world would be a way better place if everyone with Pope levels of power had at least one person in their life who was totally unimpressed by it. imagine if Elon Musk had a brother who made him come over and fix the printer. imagine if the royals had even one normie friend

Trump is actively burning down all of our alliances, our trade relationships and our economy. And the people who control Congress right now, the Republicans, who have the power to stop him, are just sitting and watching.
