Chris Remington@beehaw.orgOPMto Science@beehaw.org•What Makes a Good Life? Lessons from the Longest Study on Happiness | Robert Waldinger | TED3·4 days agoBut it doesn’t help that I live in a conservative area that doesn’t have many intellectual or techy people. I will probably end up driving to a big city for a once or twice a month meeting.
Soon I will have to be doing the same. It’s a little over an hour drive one way. Do you have any recommendations about how to find an interest group?

Chris Remington@beehaw.orgOPMto Politics@beehaw.org•Lawmaker Sounds Alarm: Trump Plotting Fake Crisis to Scrap 2028 Election and Stay in Power101·14 days agoNeither do they.
Yes they do care…very deeply. My wife was an officer in the US Army and I know many military people (active and inactive). I’ve never heard one peep about going against the US constitution.
Chris Remington@beehaw.orgOPMto Politics@beehaw.org•Lawmaker Sounds Alarm: Trump Plotting Fake Crisis to Scrap 2028 Election and Stay in Power103·14 days agoPeople in the military are conditioned to obey orders without question.
No. They all take an oath to uphold the US constitution. The entire US military will not act unlawfully nor break their oaths. It’s not going to happen.
And no one in this thread has explained, precisely, how this coup would be carried out.
Chris Remington@beehaw.orgOPMto Politics@beehaw.org•Lawmaker Sounds Alarm: Trump Plotting Fake Crisis to Scrap 2028 Election and Stay in Power214·14 days agoAfter Hegseth and Trump ended their speeches to the top military leaders there was NO cheering NOR clapping. That was a crystal clear signal to those two asshats that our military will not act unlawfully nor will they break their oaths to the constitution. So, who is going to carry out this coup? USA is freaking enormous. There isn’t a willing force large enough to carry this out.

If money isn’t stripped from politics (see Citizens United), then USA will continue to degrade.
You are very welcome.

Stop Arguing About the Ideology of Charlie Kirk’s Suspected Assassin151·27 days agoThere are copyright issues that we are not prepared to fight and could lead us into problems. If you are trying to get around a paywall, then you could install ‘bypass paywalls clean’.
If you are referencing ‘backward masking’, then that is conspiracy theory nonsense.
