Prof. Kingsfield

Whats the age when you just give up? I’m 58 this year and don’t feel like giving up yet. I still wear the vans and listen to punk and metal and enjoy a drink. Don’t think I’m embarrassing myself to be honest.

Post 9/11, a massive number of online VA disability coaching sites appeared. This is a partial list: Reddit: r/VeteransBenefits, r/VAClaims, r/VeteransSuccess, r/VeteranHelpingVeteran, r/Veterans, r/VeteransGuide, Websites: HadIt.com, VeteransGuide.org, Facebook Groups:(Veterans Claim Support / vcs.online, Veterans VA Disability Claims C&P Exams & Nexus Letter Assistance / vetsdisability, Veterans Claims Assistance Group, VA Claims - Veterans Helping Veterans)

Btw, the VA problems cut both ways In my line of work I spoke with hundreds of pre 9/11 vets, especially Vietnam/Korea war vets who had to fight tooth and nail for disability benefits

@MurrayHillGuy1 How much is your heart rate elevated?

Week 4 on Reta: – 16 lbs down – lifts are all up or holding steady – abs visible, insane vascularity – confidence through the roof – libido is high, having more sex than I have in years – focus and drive have never been more locked in why is everyone not on this?

@PubWanghaf Reform is always hated by those who characterize "fixing something" as attacking it. By that logic, repairing your car is anti-car.

The VA fraud is a perfect example of why nothing gets done in this country The lines are so blurred between genuine disability and fraudulent claims that bringing it up inevitably offends people and nothing gets done I know from MANY firsthand experiences how fraudulent many of these claims are. Too bad I guess. The topic is saturated in feelings and emotions. So bringing it up causes an outpouring of whining and totally missing the point.

@drterrysimpson Terry--your AI-written post, while directionally correct, is annoying to read due to excessive AI-styling. Less AI and more Terry would be appreciated good sir.

The most predictable reaction to GLP-1s isn’t from patients—it’s from parts of the fitness industry. Because GLP-1s don’t just change weight. They change the business model. If your entire brand is built on “just cut carbs harder,” “just grind more,” or selling willpower as a subscription service—then a medication that quiets hunger and improves metabolic signaling is… disruptive. So instead of adapting, some mock. They call patients “lazy.” They call physicians “drug dealers.” They pretend biology is a moral issue. But here’s the reality: Obesity isn’t a failure of effort. It’s a dysregulation of appetite, satiety, and energy balance. And medications like Ozempic don’t replace lifestyle—they make it possible. They quiet the noise so patients can finally: Train consistently Recover appropriately Choose food instead of fighting it The smart coaches already see this. They’re not fighting GLP-1s—they’re working with them: Building strength to preserve lean mass Programming exercise patients can sustain Supporting nutrition that actually nourishes Those are the professionals who will win. Because the future isn’t “meds vs lifestyle.” It’s physiology plus training plus nutrition. And yes—if you want a foundation that actually has decades of outcome data? The Mediterranean diet still wins. Less noise. More life.

@gas_biz 90% of my electrical power comes from a nuclear power plant 18 miles from my home, so unless you deliver uranium fuel rods, you don't deliver my fuel.

Freedom from gas prices? Brother I deliver fuel to the power company that charges your Tesla. You're still my customer. You just don't know it.

@OwenGregorian This old man makes me angry.

Behind The Times: Woman Named Karen Arrested For Vandalizing Cybertruck | Not the Bee No joke, this is a literal Karen who has been arrested in North Carolina for vandalizing a man's Cybertruck. Please don't send us a letter. Yep, Karen here allegedly took a piece of lumber with a rusty nail and attempted to scratch the crap out of the dude's Cybertruck. The owner was shocked because this happened well after all of the Tesla attacks last year. Karen's a little behind the times. Here's Local 12 in Charlotte: According to a statement from the Caldwell County Sheriff's Office, deputies arrested a 67-year-old Karen Cooke Lewis on Tuesday in connection with damage to a Tesla Cybertruck, authorities said. Lewis was charged with misdemeanor injury to personal property after a man reported that a woman used a board with nails to scratch his vehicle Sunday in Collettsville, according to the Caldwell County Sheriff's Office. Investigators said the vehicle's onboard camera system recorded the incident, allowing deputies to quickly identify the suspect. What kind of sad life have you lived if, as a 67-year-old woman, you're out vandalizing Teslas because you're still mad at Elon or something? I'm not saying that she's the reason for the Karen stereotype ... but the shoe certainly fits. Her mask was apparently as effective at hiding her identity as it was at preventing the spread of Covid. notthebee.com/article/north-…

@Tribble_Bait @FurkanGozukara Islam teaches that it is acceptable to lie to, steal from, and even murder infidels. It is impossible to have any kind of relationship with the Iranian Islamic regime.

@FurkanGozukara Yeah. Iran's going to tell the truth. They said they didn't have missiles that could reach 4000mi, too, didn't they. And now we know that isn't true.

Top Iranian official drops a massive bombshell. He confirms diplomacy is completely dead because Trump intentionally used peace negotiations as a deception to launch surprise military strikes. Iran is now preparing for an existential war to the very end.

When almost one in three ex-military have a disability rating despite most having never been in combat, something is terribly wrong. As of 2022–2023, approximately 30% of U.S. veterans have a service-connected disability rating from the VA. The 2024 Census Bureau report shows the rate of disability doubled from 15% in 2008 to about 30% in 2022.

Less than 1% of the population ever serves in the military. So maybe hush about VA benefits when you couldn’t be bothered

@TechOperator That is a completely normal reaction--I even felt that way when I retired! Everything will work out well for you.

Post-resignation day 7: This is going to be an emotional rollercoaster. One minute, I'm relieved; the next, worried. Excited, and then terrified. One great night's sleep, followed by a sleepless night. But I know it's going to be OK.

@TechOperator @Dietrichatlanta The IRS hates this one trick!

@Dietrichatlanta I'm tired of being raked over the coals on taxes. One more benefit to quitting my job!

Me having to pay back the $7,500 EV tax credit I did not qualify for last year.

The Neville Chamberlains of the world are the true danger.

HOLY SHLIT The DOJ found over 300,000 DEAD VOTERS on just a partial review of voter rolls 300,000! But Democrats told me this is impossible and never happens!

@BRICSinfo I've never sent drones and missiles to blow up my brothers, but hey, that's just me.

JUST IN: 🇮🇷 Iranian President Pezeshkian says Iran is not seeking war with Muslim countries. "They are our brothers."

@InsaneReality I've heard of cars getting bricked but not cemented.

Driver cuts through an active work zone to make a turn… instant regret

@DriveTeslaca This old man makes me angry.

Here's the Sentry Mode footage of 67-year old Karen Lewis vandalizing a Cybertruck with a board and nails. She then placed the board under the front tire, presumably hoping it would be driven over. She also placed an aluminum sign under another tire, because? She has since been arrested and charged with misdemeanor damage to property.

Today, the Islamic Republic hanged multiple Iranian civilians, some of whom were just teenagers. Amnesty International? Silent. The UN? Silent. Human Rights Council? Silent. The Red Cross? Silent.

The regime in Iran just executed 19 year old Iranian wrestler Saleh Mohammadi for participating in January protests. He never got a red carpet pin He never got CNN or NYT articles Leftists never showed any outrage But they did for his killers Khamenei & Larijani
