@JaredKlickstein I had someone tell me that paying the Ukrainians to fight so we don’t have to was smart. He was of draft age so I asked if he’d go. He said there wouldn’t be a draft. I asked what happens when we run out of Ukrainians. At that point, he just left.

@webflite I refused an airplane because both pressurization computers were down. It would have been legal to fly, but dependent upon crew actions to remain pressurized. It didn’t feel right to me. Maintenance came out and eventually fixed one of the computers. We were an hour late, but

@ScottAdamsSays At the Pentagon, people like John Kirby are treasured. They make the uncomfortable moments go away by spackling over the well-deserved doubts with half truths. This makes things easy on the leaders who got to their positions by not questioning the status quo.

@Babygravy9 Misperception by recruiters (in the US too) is that young men want to do non-combatant evacuations, as depicted in the ad. The kind of young men we need are the kind that want “make the other bastard die for his country.”

@DannyDeraney I was in my freshman year of college and saw this in a room of about 20 other college kids. It was clear he was an amazing talent. Later, in the 1980’s and 1990’s, he went into film and I thought was even better. I lack the comedic gene but so admire it in others.
