I want polio survivor Mitch McConnell to personally witness the collapse of the health care system that he helped create as he needs it more and slowly mummifies. Stephen Miller can leave now.

Not all employers pay while on service time. Many don’t, and soldiers will use PTO to keep income from the regular job coming. I did when I was in the Guard. Their job has to remain open for them (with caveats of course) because that is Federal Law under Soldiers and Sailors Civil Relief Act.
It genuinely fucks with the pay, credit, health care, and life in general for these folks. Come reenlistment time, many will remember these shenanigans.
They get paid, just in six to eight weeks. They don’t accumulate leave or have health care for dependents and spouses. Fun fact: when I got called up for Gulf War Part Deux, I had 4 separate Title 32 orders over 2 months before the Title 10 order. Kids had no insurance, we had no pay for 2 months.
Depends on if they are under Title 10 or Title 32. Title 10 is the “you are active duty and we pay you on the 1st and 15th of the month.” Title 32 is “you are paid at the end of the month following the end of orders.” Like Annual Training, disaster call up, etc.
When Pelle Alqvist came out in the crowd to do the closer “Tick Tick Boom,” he stood right next to me.
I got you covered. We’re financing this.

“Weather conditions have improved tremendously over the mainland, so you won't have any trouble at all seeing the target. Of course, we mustn't forget, that means that they won't have any trouble at all seeing you.”
And you have the perfect setup for turning to the 11yo and saying “You go to eleven..”
And balance. Spinny things need balance or they shake to pieces.

The Akron skyline stood unmoved. She just wanted some schooling, the GI Bill, a little scratch, some social mobility maybe. Now, the Second Toledo War had gone regional, touching on national issues. Here she was in an under-armored truck in Ohio. “One weekend a month & two weeks a year my ass!”
With West Virginia streaming out of the District, Maryland called up its militia and moved into DC. Annapolis released a statement that “since Charleston is occupying the Capital, we have to balance it out as a Northern State.” The President immediately posted “no thanks” to social media.
Madison replied that the occupation was justified since Lansing took Toledo. “Read history”, said the Wisconsin Governor. “You got statehood as a direct result of trading the UP in exchange for giving up Toledo. Since you took Toledo, you forfeited the UP. We took back what was ours plus interest.”
This last was the thing that caused the pause in the war. Lansing protested the northern occupation in the most extreme terms, pointing out that Wisconsin had “nothing to do with Toledo.” The Governor of Michigan stated “Toledo is an A and B thing, so C your way out of it!”
Wisconsin was the real wild card. Surging across the Upper Peninsula in a cavalry blitzkrieg, the Badgers took the entire thing as far as Newbury in a single day. The following morning they took the rest as far as Canada having informed Canada there would be a ten kilometer buffer zone.
When Lima fell, the tank factory ceased, and the real handwringing began. Would Dayton hold? Or collapse into Cincinnati to simplify the defense? Indiana tried to get in with a push from Fort Wayne attempting to cut the supply lines. The Free City of Gary rising up & choking the rear stopped that.
She looked at the map and sighed. Even in an absurd world, The Second Toledo War was absurd. A combination of Michigan MPs and HQ units took most of the Ohio shore. Cries of “Charleston or Bust” led to the recall of forces from DC. This is nuts, she thought looking at the Akron skyline.
I wish I could get MSG with my ramen. But in this economy?

Beit Hillel taught “How do we know that pizza is for any time? Pizza at supper and pizza at evening are both written. So supper is not always when the sun sets. Supper can be at noon or at midnight. Pizza is permitted at anytime.” Beit Shammai taught “only when it’s on a bagel.”

Pfft, calipers are for measuring the other head.
"Never mind," I said. "It's your turn to lobby for SB 21." I hit the brakes and aimed the SPE toward the straightaway of Point to Point. No point mentioning those LLCs, I thought. The poor bastard will see them soon enough.
Then it was quiet again. My Chancery Court had taken its shirt off and was pouring beer on its rulings, to facilitate the extraction of wealth process. "What the hell are you yelling about?" it muttered, staring up at the sun with its eyes closed and covered with worldwide frequent flyer miles.
And suddenly there was a terrible roar all around us and the sky was full of what looked like LLCs, all McKinsey & litigious & feudal around the special purpose entity, which was going about a 100 with the top down to the Caymans. And a voice screaming "Holy Irénée! What are these goddamn filings?"
We were somewhere around Winterthur on the edge of the Brandywine when the drugs began to take hold. I remember saying something like "I feel a bit parched; maybe you should lobby..."

1 Sep, DC - The Jobs Report was released today, with August at “Bigly” and July revised to 1 billion. The President praised the report, citing DOGEing the previous commission as key to the gain. When asked about using an adjective instead of a number, he responded with a thirty minute invective.
You are correct. Coon’s primary motivation in life seems to be gathering frequent flyer miles.
I estimate about half a Billy, or two Alecs in the old currency.
Now all of Jerry’s spicy bangers will be mashed with a resounding “No, Jerry!”
Forty thieves? Payments? Forty thieves making payments? This magic flying carpet can be yours for four easy Alibaba paychecks?
Underrated comment.
@coons.senate.gov will only work to protect his constituents if there are frequent miles involved. Maybe a trip to Flock HQ is in order.
I need to work that into casual conversation sometime and see what happens.

You could only get that many words on a backwards facing cowboy hat. The “Make Rhodesia Again Party” would fit on a much smaller hat and have the same clarity.
It was “Bleeding Kansas” for a reason.
¡Esta! ¡Esta es la cosa más importante que hacer!
The analysis that made the most impact with me so far is a) this assumes that floods can be voted out of office, which is dumb, leading to b) “reinventing Calvinism from first principles” and the attitude that everything bad in life is a result of your choices & you should’ve picked better parents.

Well, it’s no Hale-Bopp, but I guess with all the cuts in the Big Beautiful Bribery Bonanza Bill Of Lading, cut backs are expected.
You can’t draw and fire a 1400 caliber pistol with your hands, so over here is where the magic happens.

This is a vital message: one of the larger reasons BlueSky is refreshingly free of alt-right shitlords is because in the early days we made a gentleperson’s agreement to starve these fuckos out and it worked. No likes, no quotes, no engagement. They got bored and left. Please keep the Old Ways.
Dock Ellis looked at the catcher’s mitt and saw Tricky Dick’s face giving the sign. “Christian baby” Huh? “Christian baby. Don’t make send Kissinger out to the mound. Christian Knuckle-baby. Do it.” Dock stood up, looked in his glove, and his eyes widened. Maybe they’ll bunt and drop short.
