Dreylad posted:the RCN having problems is something I can understand because the Canadian military seems pretty underfunded in general. the US military having problems with this thing is insane to me given how much funding they receive. American "military spending" is mostly lining the pockets of Raytheon and Blackwater. Even in a "war" zone during "war" time something like 2/3 of Americans on the ground are outside contractors and not U.S. military. Boots don't see any of that money, which is why we've crashed like 3 ships lately due to fatigued sailors on undercrewed ships working overlong shifts without proper training for their posts.

Why hasn't the government suggested to cancel those TrumpBux since WE WON THE WAR AGAINST VIRUS and they're no longer needed?

If so I expect a rebound in mid May once we open back up but by then we’ll have 15 min covid testing.

China went full lockdown and it took how many months to start settling back into a fraction of normalcy? meanwhile even attempting to take the same kind of steps here would meet with armed resistance from 1/3rd of the country poo poo is going to be real bad for a real long time, sorry y'all

So there is a trend happening during this pandemic of christians breaking stay at home orders and harrasing women going to clinics where abortion services are provided. Remember when HGTV was going to have a show with the Benham brothers but people uncovered that their comments on LGBT and abortion. Well one of the brothers got arrested for being outside sidewalk "counseling" outside of a clinic that provides abortion and told the arresting officer to go arrest everyone in that clinic https://mobile.twitter.com/BenhamBrothers/status/1246688808357244929 There also was this story quote:Four pro-lifers involved with North Carolina-based Love Life are suing the local government of Greensboro for "violating the group’s First Amendment rights to walk and pray on the sidewalk outside an abortion center."

Boots don't see any of that money, which is why we've crashed like 3 ships lately due to fatigued sailors on undercrewed ships working overlong shifts without proper training for their posts. Most of that money goes to mostly white, mostly male, mostly boomer+ who have next to no skills. It's such a huge grift government contracting. The 'skilled' part of our workforce has grown dramatically since the inception of the contract I work on while the hourly workers have stagnated. Yet, the scope of the 'skilled' work hasn't really changed. And well most of the people don't do a whole lot. Even the talented people who do 80% of the work don't really do much. It's rather insane. The military is completely inept. Don't get any allusions that it's somehow uniquely competent like the Army Core of Engineers, the AirForce and it looks like the navy at least are completely clueless. When you look at crumbling infrastructure that exists in our government and military organizations in terms of Skilled people who can organized and mange complex organizations.

If so I expect a rebound in mid May once we open back up but by then we’ll have 15 min covid testing. Hey sincerely thank you for the update. I heard an MD from NYC saying on Friday that although he was still seeing acceleration in patients coming in, he was feeling a bit optimism because they are finally seeing some positive outcomes in a handful of early cases and that healthcare workers are at least seeing patterns and learning what could and could not work with some confidence. I hope the people like you and MadJackal and all the other doctors and nurses lurking or otherwise are able to find a little bit of silver lining...it has to be difficult experience this real time, but know that your words mean a lot to us hanger-ons (and of course your day job of keeping people alive means a lot too)

They had to completely shut down Wuhan for like 10 weeks but I'm sure a half-assed "lockdown" in NYC for like 6 weeks will do the trick

MysteriousStranger posted:nobody is beyond the air force, it's not even close. the air force school is in colorado springs the home of biblical nutjobbery. biblical nut jobs specifically join the air force because of it's political power and latest and greatest technologies over all the other services. the air force has repeatedly gotten into trouble for forcing christianity on it's own staff. They also can't handle the responsibility of nuclear weapons.
