@AJA_Cortes The final stage of the slow merge between RW autist Twitter with bro-bodybuilding Twitter is surprisingly.... surrealistic.

Spot on. I’ve seen it firsthand.

@MarmotRespecter Homeschooling is a 50/50 split between motivated parents teaching their kids and conspiracy minded moms who have separation anxiety from their children and thus allow them to just play all day without school

@NecktieSalvage Now I know you’re Dutch. 😅

The training these guys do is insane. ~80% of those who try to be USCG rescue swimmers fail out.

You have to be in Olympic-tier physical shape, cold-tolerant, able to keep your cool when beginning to drown, etc.

Not only are you getting into helicopters in weather conditions so serious that not even the Navy will fly (hurricanes and so on) you're riding that helicopter into some of the most dangerous sea conditions -- breaking surf, giant swells, and crawling into sinking, burning ships to drag half-conscious 200lb victims through ice-cold water to a swinging, dangling helicopter basket in the dark. You're wearing a ton of gear, jumping out of helicopters. The helo can only stay so long at the scene before they'll need to refuel. You MUST keep your cool.

Oh, and the people you're rescuing are often in shock, meaning they might sock you in the jaw while you're trying to save their life. It's a physiological, brain-stem type response. You just gotta manhandle them into the basket and carry on, I guess.

These guys read all about it, devote 100% of their free time to training their bodies into freakishly-fit swimming machines, sign up, do boot camp, crush the swimmer training, watch most of their classmates fail out, and then go and do the job.

And when it comes time to rank up, it's often one of the slower jobs in the CG for making rank. The pay sucks. You'll probably do time in Alaska. It's not a directly transferable skill to any civilian industry so post-service job opportunities aren't that great. Their bodies are often broken by the end of it. They see people die -- sometimes kids, sometimes in a bloody mess, sometimes missing a chance at rescue by one second. They make mistakes, and people die. They have to live with it.

They're heroes, plain and simple.
VERY few could do what these people do.

No one thinks mass immigration is good for America. It’s either good for them personally or it is punishment driven by spite and jealousy. All other excuses have been swept away.

We need to talk about the reversal of the technological improvement, how new products are often inferior to the old models they replace.

I bought some new Apple AirPods (gen 4) and the sound quality is noticeably WORSE than my old gen 2’s.

How is that possible?

@WardoftheStates Can you elaborate?

@siegfriedmuell It’s good.

Watching "American History X" on VICE and they are bleeping every f bomb but not every n-word. Who are they censoring this for, my great-grandparents?

@_tweetness People who are happy with their current glasses usually don’t like to change them. That’s why they ask you about your old glasses.

[Logan Rhodes @LoganRhod]

@_tweetness I understand. That’s normal.

Refraction is determined through objective and subjective tests. Your (the patient’s) answers to those questions are the subjective part.

It doesn’t mean the doctor doesn’t know what they’re doing.

[Logan Rhodes @LoganRhod]

@_tweetness “I have to tell them if I want it changed and how much to change it.”

Sounds like they sensed you’re picky and are just trying to give you what you want to make you happy

@JoshRainerGold Is there any proof that this guy is a real practicing doctor?
He seems to have a ton of free time to shit talk online for someone who’s supposedly a surgeon

[Logan Rhodes @LoganRhod]

@JoshRainerGold He’s a nasty guy to interact with online, he insults his own fans regularly.

Is he actually a neurosurgeon? I’ve never seen any evidence of his credentials.

It's pretty silly to see grown adults scurrying through a snow covered parking lot (at a high end grocery BTW) because they aren't wearing a hat, gloves or winter coat.

[Logan Rhodes @LoganRhod]

Why do people not own boots or proper winter clothing anymore?

All winter long I've seen people struggle through the snow in wet tennis shoes and the customary athleisure.

"Lesbian Biden aide accidentally rams military aircraft into airliner, killing 70" is an absolutely nightmare headline for the previous regime.

To put it mildly, there are powerful incentives for officials to muddy the waters of this investigation.

@NecktieSalvage An abomination
