Nonsense. Yes on tanks and manpower, but the Russians would've starved without lend lease. Both in Industry and in aggregate. The only reason they could make all those tanks in the first place was because of American trucks.

Tunnel networks that emerge underneath hospitals?

You put words onto page with which given a thousand I could not have equaled. We will all follow, in time. "I see life as a roadside inn where I have to stay until the coach from the abyss pulls up. I don't know where it wil

A lot of the same for me, down to reading silly non-fiction books just to read something as a child. This has become nearly vestigial as I've gotten older. I'm curious what books you felt were 'for' you?

It's wide ranging. For example, when I was diagnosed with one of those things that requires a hematologist I told the receptionist jokingly: "I got the spicy diagnosis"

This is correct. I have an extremely rare leukemia <1 in 100k, and as said above, the only cure is allogenic marrow transplant. To put it bluntly, survival is at best a 2/3 dice roll - and that's if you're diagnosed before

What about leukemias?

I'm not on a ton of medication, but it's very possible. The drugs they put you on are varying kinds of brutal.

Anecdotal but I have epilepsy and my memory has started decreasing since I started having seizures. Even now thoroughly medicated, I'll still have moments where I completely lose my train of thought, and have to rethink how I arrived t

There are plenty; anecdotally, I run into them more than not.

So censorship is okay as long as it's politically aligned with the powers that be? I'm not a nazi, but that seems dangerous...

So enforce it.

This seems like an assertion based on incomplete evidence. Not saying you're indelibly wrong, but presuming there is such a thing, one would think it's infallible, and thus you're not going to accidentally slip into paradis

A difference in philosophy is not cause for immediate therapy. Most therapists are glorified echo chambers and only adept at at 'fixing' the more popular ills. For 200 bucks an hour.

I think contemporary AIs would be more alarmed by accidentally dropping the n word and/or something entirely antithetical to the current zeitgeist and then be neutered. ChatGPT is hilarious if you ask it the right questions in the nu

Are the CIA agents in the room with us? If so send me an offer, frankly it'd be an improvement.

Thank you very much, this was exactly what I was looking for. Just In vaguest terms, if you could go over your own route, with no personal details, obviously, I would be appreciative. What barriers existed, what would you prepare for differ

Weirdly I was considering officer candidacy in a topically relevant career area. Again, I don't know regarding the symptoms yet, especially since when they present - it's pretty damn obvious that something is amiss. Anyway thank y

It is not, yet somehow technically defrauding the US gov doesn't seem like the best idea in the world as a career starter. Anyway, while I am in excellent shape, I don't have the whole of my twenties to piss away on a whim, so you

Potentially Epilepsy. No sign of it in childhood, or early twenties, but the last two years have been somewhat fun. Symptoms present, to the best of my knowledge as a minor case of JME - minor because as far as I can tell, there's no l

And brave doesn’t even attempt that. They perpetuate the Google monopoly and bolt on their own monetization schema as a ‘feature’ toward the user.

Something insinuates that you're not being entirely honest in your arguments.

That seems blindly naive but okay.
