WTF? (**NSFW**)
CEO (who is married) of a not small company got publicly caught fishing off the company pier. Hilarity ensued. Company is not small, but not a household name, so if you don't know who that is, it just means you are living right in terms of social media consumption. His wife has since removed her married name off of her Linked-In account, as a barometer of how that's going.

Starting a podcast before being selected for a military pilot slot: Good or Terrible idea?
Podcast? Hard no. A video diary, that you might or might not edit/cut/splice and selectively release long after you've reached some level of success? ...still probably no, but maybe this over the podcast idea.

Lol; I grew up in a suburb. I usually lead off with I'm from Chicago, unless they're familiar then we can get more specific. I sure as heeeeelllll don't say I'm from Englewood.- E-7A Wedgetail
Had friends that were ABMs. They tried. A few had moments of helpfulness. But overall, BACN was 1000% more useful than Darkstar, any day.- Israel strikes Tehran

Speaking of which- The Next President is...
No-one has to. It's obvious at this point. If whatever media you choose is headlining something that rhymes with "fine people on both sides", it's 99% certainty that checking the surrounding two minutes or less of tape will yield the polar opposite of the narrative being peddled.- Track Selects and Assignment Nights
Ahhh, that makes a lot more sense.- Track Selects and Assignment Nights
So these are FAIP awards going to the T-38...before they've ever flown a T-38. Bold move, Cotton- Track Selects and Assignment Nights
Mix? FAIP, AdAir?- How do you feel about your airframe and mission?
Any time it’s written or said that the Air Force supports the CAS mission: Straight up bullshit.- F-35 Lightning info
Juxtaposed against our decision to kick Turkey out of the Fat Amy club for their decision to shop at the other retailer...could generate some interesting rebuttals.- Lighten Up Francis!

Does beg the question why the entire order was for family models.- The Next President is...
That would be, in essence, the extent of the process that they are due. An officer in the field should be able to investigate and determine legal status fairly easily. I can prove my legal status lickety split...I get to stay. This idea that every alien should get hearings ad infinitum is absurd.- China 6th Gen Fighter?
Slightly off topic, but with just enough venn overlap: I’ve lost count the number of times a CA I’m flying with (.civ guys) says “I think they should just build new A-10s.” As long as we have another hour in cruise, I’ll paint the picture of 50 years of technology advances being the toys in the Eyes Wide Shut party between DoD program requirements and industry, and how that would create an incestuous love baby that will only get ripped apart across as many congressional districts as possible to create some too-big-to-fail abomination that would resemble the original A-10 about as closely as an ice cream truck. And I somehow feel re-victimized every time.- Commanders are dropping like flies this year
Ok, maybe my reading comprehension is falling short, but all I’m seeing is “loss of trust and confidence” boilerplate. Quick talk on?- The Next President is...
Usually around o6, always seemed like the callsign starts getting downplayed, spoken less and less in public settings. Don't think I’ve seen anything about this CJCS since he was first mentioned that didn’t state his callsign at least once in every instance. I like it 🤘- 8 Mk-82s whoopsie
Basic training rules. It's what a typical DACT ladder is based off of, among myriad other joint TTPs. ...at least from the AF perspective.- March Madness
