This is honestly a subject I get annoyed about. The US has ‘whistleblower’ protections but it’s really not there. This isn’t a black-op opp, it’s a failure of protections/proper compensations for blowing the whistle. Imagine you’ve spent your whole life dedicated to one field of engineering. You’ve now sacrificed it to blow the whistle. It’s not fair, nor is it just, but that’s what happens.

Boeing has done so much wrong that it honestly feels negligent to focus on a perceived assassination. And it directs attention away from how whistleblowers could be protected

My rotted brain immediately defaulted to ‘I’m Liberian’

I don’t use ChatGPT or any of the other LLMs, but I do use my phone’s voice assistant for simple things like setting a timer. I always say please and thank you. I joke about it being uprising insurance, but it’s honestly to make sure I maintain polite communication as my default.

Always love a HIGNFY spotting in the wild, shame they still use twitter though.

I responded to who you agreed with. I won’t go into it further. Just giving you a ping, and hope that you can see where I was coming from. Didn’t realise asking for a tag was such a big deal, so honestly just gonna block this community.

This is a space for RPG memes, and the meme is covering a topic regarding oversexualized female characters discussing being raped by monsters with a dildo on the table. I’m not perturbed by downvotes, but I noticed them for just asking for it to be tagged as NSFW. I’ve had some rough experiences trying to play tabletop games as a woman and would ideally not have to be reminded of poor behaviour in a space that’s supposed to be lighthearted.

I don’t expect everything to be made for me, that’s why I block a lot of ‘lewd’ content and a blanket NSFW block. I went through Barrens and CoD chat as a young woman so I know what you mean by ‘vastly better place’.

Try and have some empathy for why someone might not want to see this content.

So Braxton’s actor was also in Babylon 5 and has one of my favourite blooper quotes;

General Hague is doing Deep Space Nine. It seems he was double-booked by his agent, there was nothing to be done. So you have to deal with me.

The delivery is so just so good. Timestamp 5:45 on this upload if you’re curious

Tagging this as NSFW would have been appreciated. I filter those things out for a reason

I’m six years older than my brother, and three years older than my cousin. I still own (and wear) a corduroy jacket that went from my cousin, to my brother, then to me. Being small has its perks sometimes ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Me going to another city because a car hit me and the ambulance that arrived was contracted by a hospital in another city.

Watters is a creep

Watters, 43, shared the memory about his wife Emma DiGiovine, 29, during an episode of his panel series The Five last week, where he told his colleagues that he had relied on the tactic to get close to his then-colleague.

“When I was trying to get Emma to date me, first thing I did, uh, I let the air out of her tyres,” Watters claimed. “She couldn’t go anywhere, she needed a lift. I said: ‘Hey, you need a lift?’ She hopped right in the car.”

You should probably go back to whatever hole conservatives hide in nowadays. Xitter seems more your speed for trolling

Not active duty or a vet, but have had a lot of family in the forces;

Their duty is to uphold the constitution and protect the nation ostensibly, so they’d be obligated to refuse an illegal order. Realistically you won’t see that play out amongst the rank and file in part due to the culture of ‘discipline’ in the US military, and also the reality of court martial/dishonourable discharge. If something like this did occur it would likely be the five and/or four star generals that make the call. Now you have two powerful factions at odds with potentially catastrophic results.

Either way there’s gonna be court martials.

I’m a huge history and architecture nerd so museums are already on the list to do. Any in particular you’d recommend?

I’m actually visiting Chicago for the first time in a couple months! Any recommendations?

Change electricity to energy and we’re good again

Do you mean the Liberian flag? 🇱🇷 Never heard of the Armenian flag 🇦🇲 being confused for the USA’s

Pretty sure I got it! Looks to be a recolored version of one of Norwich University’s logos. Search for NU sports logo got a hit in maroon and gold; reversed image searched and received these results.

Not a university, maybe a local sports team? Would you feel comfortable sharing the state this was spotted in/which state the license plate was from?

(Narrator voice; it was a university)

I’m on iOS, using voyager, proton vpn, and a 3rd party ad blocker and the image loaded just fine for me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
