Why not just let them continue taking their meds?

I knew a not insignificant number of nukes, myself included, who had various mixes of ADD/ADHD/Depression that was exacerbated by our jobs but nobody dared to seek help for it because it was disqualifying. In our case it was disqualifying by fiat and also maybe because they didn't trust ships doc's to hand out adderal. A lot of kids just never get the help or diagnosis when they were young. Sometimes its because their parents understand the stigma if its an otherwise light case, sometimes even if the kids need it the parents can't afford it, and mostly it seems like its just parents deciding to tell their kids to tough it out or they'll get beaten. When you grow up just having to get by anyway you get out of the mindset that help is available.

Now that I'm not under that doom umbrella anymore I made a new years resolution to finally talk to a doctor about it and see what can be done. And from what I've heard even the more uptight services have started accepting that you gotta let people get themselves sorted while they're in.

I don't know what the actual research shows but it definitely feels like obvious ADHD is becoming increasingly common.

I hate to say this since its our entry drug to dystopia hellworld, but a big thing in late 2019 and 2020 will be GOTV memes for your candidate. Any serious candidate really needs a meme team. Literally people dedicated to making, finding, and spreading the best memes for your candidate and the best sick burns against the other. All 'unaffiliated' with the candidate. Making sidechannel facebook groups and subreddits, posting anonymously on 4chan etc.

Trump on human traffickers' routes: "They get off the road, and they drive out into the desert and they come in, they make a left turn - usually it's a left, not a right." After getting distracted, he resumed: "They make a right turn before they get to the port of entry."

I know nothing about the USN or 7th Fleet but why is the ops tempo so high there that it's apparently contributing to poo poo like this? The idea of a modern warship's bridge being littered with piss-bottles is wild to me

Its completely reasonable for a ship to maintain that ops tempo if you were able to keep crew morale and training and furnish repair parts in the normal amount of time. The navy is bad at all three of those.

I mean, it'd be nice if Warren could easily dunk on Trump, but wasn't that a big complaint people had about Clinton last go around? She spend most of the debate dunking on him and saying how terrible of a person he was instead of talking about her policy proposals and letting Trump run his stupid mouth and look dumb on his own.

Now Warrens doing that and suddenly it's "yEaH tHeSe DeCoRuM pOlS aRe sO bAd!"

I mean, I think they technically can't during the shutdown.

But noted billionaire Donald Trump, when having to pay for food from his own pocket, spent $50 to get some fast food.

Which is also weird because thats like $1500 of fast food and you really could cater for cheaper at that point. Maybe Donald just doesn't know how much things cost and thinks fast food is just cheap?
