This is not legal advice, just the musings of an old Sergeant. If you are refusing to follow what you believe to be an illegal military order, stand your ground. Respectfully refuse the order. If offered NJP/Article 15 you should refuse and demand trial by court martial.
I think it’s important to note that tax breaks are why grocery stores and suppliers give such great deals to food banks. It isn’t out of the goodness of their hearts. Late stage capitalism is kinda shitty.
Remember that while food banks welcome donations of food, they prefer $$$$$$$. They have deals with grocery stores and suppliers. You can only buy one dollar's worth of food for one dollar, but they can buy several dollars' worth. So don't, like, buy food to donate it, just give 'em the dough.

Why in the fuck is this not being reported by every paper and news organization in the country? The Google results are literally all Bluesky and Threads. 🤯

A Republican friend was so shook by this video and the fact I’m no longer Republican he started a group chat with other acquaintances from my old milblogging days because he’s concerned for my mental health from the investigations I work. The CSAM stress must be why I stopped drinking the kool aid!

I’ve know Fred for something like 15 years. He is the real deal. He will represent the second district and ALL of Missouri in Congress with the same honor and integrity as when he served the nation in uniform. I whole heartedly endorse Fred Wellman for Congress!

I understand maybe a dozen words in Spanish. I listened to Bad Bunny for the first time today and despite not understanding the lyrics I can tell you, “This slaps.” It’s just good music. Damn good. I’m looking forward to the show.

The State of Missouri maintains a website where you can find the names, job titles, and salaries of any State employee. Just something to keep in mind.
Identifying public officials isn't "doxing." People have the right to know who is working for their government. Nor, for that matter, is it "radical left-wing terrorism." So it's frustrating to see platforms caving to these bad faith characterizations. www.technologyreview.com/2025/10/06/1...

People over Papers was removed by Padlet, the platform it was built on, yesterday.

Trump on pardoning Ghislaine Maxwell: Haven't heard the name in so long. I’ll take a look at it. I’ll speak to the DOJ. A lot of people have asked me for pardons.

I was cleaning out the office at the house we’re preparing to sell and found an album I’ve been looking around the Internet for for years. I stumbled across the CD while I was deployed to Iraq and I listened to it daily the entire deployment. I had assumed it didn’t survive the multiple moves

Real cops with real warrants don’t give up when the arrest is lawful! ICE MUST GO!

The only reason she won is she sat next to Vince. She would have lost 7-0 to every. Single. Other. Person in the final five.

I’ve been trying escalate my #cooking game over the last year or so. The biggest lesson: there is no such thing as fast AND good cooking.
You can, at best, get fast and alright. Or really fast charcoal.
For Pete’s sake, rest your proteins.

GLIZZY IS GOOD BOY! I’ve already got my own two lovable doggos but if you have room in your family I highly encourage adopting a doggo. Adoption is awesome, our precious two dogs were adopted! (Current doggos were not due to need for very specific traits due to kiddo medical needs.)
Hello! I came across this post on bluesky and I fell in love. I cannot, for many reasons, adopt Glizzy,
BUT I figured we can all help Glizzy get adopted along with some other loving pets!
