I went to a middle class highschool and didn't hey approached once. went to a community College in a lower tax bracket area due to the drive bieng easy and suddenly I've batted off the same recruiter 4 fucking times. I am mentally ill, and physically unfit. I couldn't join if I wanted to. one of my friends with what is clearly undiagnosed depression and bieng about 10 lbs underweight was recruited for the marines.

I can respect some officers and all the enlisted. but the generals and the recruiters are all scumbags directly perpetuating our broken system.

It’s an extremely beautiful town on the Oregon coast. It’s about an hour and a half from Portland. I’ve been there multiple times for business/sight-seeing. It’s tremendously beautiful and I’d consider living there if I had the opportunity and the means to support it. I recommend checking out the nearby town of Seaside, Oregon too.

Not sure how this is uplifting news. Prior to this, it took 6 months to book another therapy appointment. Occasionally doctors show up late to their own appointments or cancel on the day of. I've had to tell them I will kill myself in the VA parking lot just to get them to refer me to a therapist in the local community instead of waiting twice a year to speak with someone.

I did not state lower income neighborhoods only under privileged as it is a better blanket statement because I consider lower middle class in this as well.

The most enticing offer the military for free education is obviously a ploy to attract people from families that are not that well off ( well off as in the family is able to provide for the child through out 4 years of college without the child also needing a job to supplement).

At any private school or at least upper middle class to upper class school army officers are non existent at jobs fairs. Why is that? Obviously because the military provides no benefits to them.

Our military preys on the future generations of our society by offering them hope without showing just how transparent their support of veterans are after they been put to use. Staying in the military grants better medical benefits then after you get out because ( gotta keep their meat bags in tip top shape) why should the government care about you after you have lost your usefulness. After people have fought and lost for our country.

See, here, “brilliant” could mean a couple of things:

A. You legitimately think I am brilliant, or that my statement was brilliant.

B. You are using thinly veiled sarcasm.

C. You view personal attacks as brilliant.

Multiple sentiments, all in the same nine letters. Now, like this, some words can have multiple definitions. For example, if I use the word unnecessary, it could mean:

A. I feel as though your pedantry is unnecessary

B. I feel as though this conversation is unnecessary.

C. I feel as though your access to technology is unnecessary.

It’s really neither of these things. The definition I would like to convey is: Continuing to entertain such a mediocre attempt at being an unnecessary specimen on Reddit would be unnecessary.

That’s a lot, I know.

If you need any help slogging through such an immense concept, please do let someone know.

And honestly, if you take sound health advice from strangers on the internet as a personal attack, there could be a far many things to sort out within yourself before you start to worry about requisite vitamin d intake.

Or, maybe that’s the problem?

Again, I suggest you go outside tomorrow, it’s good for your physical and mental health.
