So we pulled out of Afghanistan right when a massive vaccine campaign is being forced upon our troops? Am I the only one seeing the red (or should I say blue) flags here?????? Wake up sheeple!!

Joking aside, I've read things that say the Taliban realizes the very real threat COVID represents. Imagine going into some secluded burg, trying to avoid fighting, trying to bring them into the fold, and giving them COVID. Hearts and minds, and lungs.

There were a few medical sources that covered the Taliban COVID response. They had nearly all fighters involved in the Campaign to Recapture AFG immunized first. They focused on getting COVID vaccine into the remote supportive villages.

There's also the millenia-old aspect of older generations looking at newer generations and being confused by how they act, and refusing to realise that they acted similar (compared to their parent generation) at the same age. This is how the stress card meme was invented and loving refuses to die

It’s funny one of my coworkers was telling me how army boot camp must be so easy because they can use their cell phones now. Like lady, it’s the same thing as before it’s just they use that instead of a pay phone.

Humbug Scoolbus posted:What the gently caress happens at Goodfellow? Is it the water quality or something? At least when I was there it was mostly constant insults and belittling from command, combined with mandatory formations that made a decent night’s sleep mathematically impossible while being trapped in a town so miserable Cormac McCarthy wrote about it. Going there right after 2 years at DLI was a real dumpster moment following the never ending stress and anxiety of language school. It’s surprising that SIGINTers don’t have even higher suicide rates. Everybody I know is on some form of anti depressant or anxiety medication now.

Coming out now that Alec Baldwin was 2 feet away from the DP when he shot her. I am now 100% back on the gently caress Alec Baldwin Bring Up Charges train. I don’t care if it was supposed to be blanks or nothing, that is straight up loving negligence

That's pretty standard. Obviously it won't stop a real bullet

Then we’re hitting my unbridgeable mental disconnect. Even in a film set with all the checks and balances that are supposed to exist, pointing a gun directly at someone that close and firing…..i just couldn’t do it

How else do you think they get these shots of people getting shot in first person? Direct cause is that there was a bullet in the gun when it should have been a blank or a dummy. Root cause is *waves hand around*

You’ve been trained to handle weapons. Actors are not. They’re morons who have to be handled with kid gloves. Dr. Drew Baird from 30 Rock is a perfect example of these people in real life.

One important thing to remember is that the film industry has the command structure of the military and the discipline of a restaurant kitchen. If you're eating at Nobu it's likely your vegetables are being washed properly and raw food is being stored at proper temperatures. Rust had a production budget 2 or 3 levels below Olive Garden. The waitress is high on opioids, the line cook is cutting up rare chicken in the sink in the staff bathroom, and the dishwasher has open sores on his hands but can't take a day off because he's an illegal and he'll get deported. And the owner just gave the busboy a loaded firearm.

Sure there is, but that would cost marginally more than having them looking through the viewfinder. There are lots of people to blame for what happened, but ultimately Mr. Baldwin is comparatively pretty low on the list.

Baldwin is a producer of the film and thus at least partly in charge of the budget. So, no, he isn't low on the list--his handling of the budget directly affected that choice.

Well, it's worth remembering that "producer" means a lot of different things on TV and film sets. Did he actually put money up or was it a vanity credit that means he consulted on the story? Probably a lot more to still come out.

Usually the vanity type producers get billed as executive producers but big egos like Baldwin may insist that they are billed as producer so they sound more important to the actual work of making the movie even if they weren't. As you say, we'll find out eventually

Everything I've heard about the rust shooting just makes it seem more and more like they hired some firearms consultant that is pretty much the guys we mock in these threads for putting holes in range buildings and hanging out of car doors while shooting.

He is at the very top of the list. There isn't any room further up the list.
