THE US MILITARY IS NOT APOLITICAL, IT IS NONPARTISAN. BY ITS VERY EXISTENCE IT IS POLITICAL.

Sad Dads Club Donate Today To Ensure No Dad Grieves Alone

My friend’s newborn son died last year. This org has been helping him and dads like him, find some peace and healing.

They’re close to hitting their goal. If you’ve got a few dollars consider helping out

Nutsy update- he’s actually feeling better today. I was a little heavy with his pain medication this morning. So he’s a bit in zombie mode.

This is a good sign! It means he’s at a lower pain level! I’ll obviously be adjusting meds for the afternoon.

This is when I tell you Mom is running the heat at 76 degrees. I’m in shorts and a T-shirt and considering the merits of a tank top…

Like this is basically the damned textbook. No notes.

Do not shoot people in the water

Speedboat that holds 11 people plus cargo if I’m counting right.

And this is a classic β€œyou don’t shoot the people on the capsized boat”

I just…what the fuck

He’s developed a paradoxical response to it so we’re using different pain meds.

Last time he was on it he was literally running around screaming at things for hours

Yeah. He’s in post dentsl pain but also much happier if that makes sense

2 incisors (that were fractured below the gumline). One reabsorbing one that needed fiddling and one β€œcrown” that has a bunch of stitches around it

We officially don’t have enough representation in either Congress or the courts.

We need to adopt the Wyoming rule and at a minimum expand the Court so that there’s one scotus justice per circuit.

Amazing what happens when you provide all the appropriate documentation and related evidence

So trying to not drown in the ocean qualifies as β€œcontinuing the mission”

Navy folks?

I’m at the point where I’m beyond perplexed.

None of this makes any sense. I can’t get a good read on the size of the boat, what was used to β€œsink” it in the first place, and then on what planet is a person trying to not drown does that qualify as β€œcontinuing the mission”

I’m just mad at this ongoing push. In this scotus to ignore facts of the case that’s right there. More than once, they have made up elements of the case that don’t exist.

Benefit of the doubt my godamned ass.
