I had not seen anything about the manifesto.
- Comment on Person detained in manhunt for UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson murder suspect 1 week ago:
So Thompson a murdered last week. The suspect has made his way to Altoona just over 200 miles.
And in those days and miles he didn’t manage to get rid of evidence that would tie him to the killing?
That’s pretty dumb.

Recently at a company town hall, “please respond the anonymous employee satisfaction survey.”
My boss a couple of weeks later, “HR says they need more surveys from our group. Please encourage your teams to fill them out.”
Yeah, completely anonymous.

This is so disappointing. I am a huge fan of Harebrained. Battletech is fantastic. I’m unsure why Lamplighters was unable to do what it needed to do.

- Comment on Nolte: CBS Corruption – Anchor Shamed for Coates Interview, ‘60 Minutes’ Rigs Kamala Interview 2 months ago:
So, definitely not conservative, but the first part of that headline is absolutely accurate. The man who asked Coates difficult questions has been publicly criticized by the network.
The second part of that headline is absolutely bullshit.

- Comment on Another job lost because of technology 👿 2 months ago:
Yes, but what gorgeous country to get fucked in! When my wife PCSd from Long Island to Fort Knox, we drove through that country several times.
She would also spend a lot of time at Fort Lee (now Gregg-Adams) and the drive from Fort Knox to Fort Lee also crossed amazing parts of WV.

- Comment on How Do Archers Resist Firing Arrows At Everyone In The Spectator Gallery? 3 months ago:
She was on a team in Kentucky 6th through 8th grades. She’s starting her Freshman year in Iowa.
Her response is sadly always the same. “Dad! I’d get in trouble!”

My daughter is an archer. I have asked her this question many times.
- Comment on how do I accept that a doctor earns more than double what I do? 3 months ago:
Your worth, your value is not determined by what someone else makes.
Also, I’m a bit ignorant of this subject so forgive me if I get it wrong, but did he not go to school significantly longer for his MD than you did for yours?
I believe he also had to go through the hell that is residency, I didn’t believe nurses do.
If you’re envious of his salary, improve your skills, or your education. If you’re happy where you are at In life, then don’t let the fact that others make more than you interfere with that happiness.
No matter what you do, there will always be others who make more, one of those sad facts of life.

- Comment on Have you ever realized just how broken you are? 4 months ago:
What a lovely post. Thank you for sharing it.
I’m 60 years old, my father passed many years ago. I have still not come to grips with all the complexities of our relationship. My wife knows that if we ever see a film or TV show where a parent, but particularly a father shows any form of approval for something their son did, I will turn into a blubbering mess.
That said, more rational me knows that there were many ways in which my father was a good dad, if am willing to take the time to look for them.
I have three sons and a daughter, my greatest hope in life is that they won’t have the same issues with me as a father that I did with my own dad.
Thanks again for this amazing story about how even small things we do can have a great impact, and not necessarily on those we expect them to.
