@ThatCrazyDude@ILoveAmericaNews "Lifers" will go back in a second. They're institutionalized and don't function well in civilian life.
I had a Chief and Warrant Officer on my first boat that hadn't gone to shore in over a year when I came aboard. Both were married, with kids and a nice house in Richmond
I asked Chief about it one day and he told me, "when I'm outside, I have to wait in line. Nobody listens to me. Here, I have people that jump when I tell them and have meals brought to me."
Working out can "wrest back a sense of power that you might feel is missing on Inauguration Day," the report said. "You might not be able to do anything about the new administration’s policies, but you know what you can do? Fifteen perfect-form jumping jacks."
Group crying was another recommendation in the report.
I would like to preempt the following with a disclaimer: I hold no illusions that I am the smartest person ever. I have had the good fortune of working with legitimately smart people and they are a joy if, for no other reason, I don't have to explain my jokes/references.
With that being said — Working with morons is exhausting...
I want to, sincerely, apologize if I ever frustrated those smart people whom I have worked with in the past.
I remember when you could read stuff on the internet instead of having to watch a video of some guy rambling for fifty minutes and stretching 5 minutes of information into an hour in order to get more ad money.
@Humpleupagus@amerika how anyone, with a straight face, can justify how somebody else spending money they don't have, instead of you spending money you don't have, is *good* for the economy, is a level of estrogen-poisoned thinking that I don't think a hysterectomy can correct...
