As someone who lived on a military installation for nearly 20 years during my enlistment, I can tell you exactly how they think: the idea of random people (soldiers or civilians) walking around with a personal gun is seen as an automatic risk that could let a terrorist or insider threat get armed and cause havoc. So they ban or heavily restrict them for everyone to ‘prevent issues.’ It’s the classic gun-free zone mentality applied to bases, even though service members swear an oath and train with weapons daily
@DerrickEvans4WV If the 2A is our God given right why do Soldiers have to ask for permission to carry and bear arms? Soldiers and civilians alike should be allowed to carry and bear arms on any military installation.
🚨BREAKING: Pete Hegseth just signed a memo permitting service members to carry personal firearms on base.
“Not all enemies are foreign…Some are domestic. Confirming your God-given right to self-protection is what I’m signing into action today.”
@DerrickEvans4WV No, could we get someone to authorize an open Cary for the entire nation? I mean everyone, besides those who have been convicted of felonies and such
So now, in college, they teach people that whites never amounted to anything? Who do they think built this country? How do you get to this level of indoctrination? How? And why doesn't she realize how racist she sounds? Ughhhh.
These people vote.
🚨 Mind-blowing stat from Sen. Warren:
Elon Musk’s net worth is now ~6.5 million times the median American household’s wealth.
She says it’s time for a wealth tax on billionaires.
Is punishing an inventor, an entrepreneur, and a risk-taker who builds something massive with new taxes the fix?
Tesla, SpaceX, and Starlink have created millions of jobs and trillions in value.
Wealth tax sounds fair… until the jobs, tech, and future growth dry up.
Grok-4.20-Beta 1 just ranked #1 in Medicine & Healthcare on Arena (with style control)
The multi-agent version scored #3
xAI literally has two models in the top 3 for medical AI....dominating the leaderboard
And this is not just about rankings. Grok has actually helped people through serious, life-or-death medical situations in the real world
Medicine is one of the hardest AI categories to shine in because it requires the utmost precision, and Grok just crushed it
Grok is designed to actually help humanity... and this proves it
This young man went out for a meal by himself.
He said: ‘You don’t know lonely until you have to take yourself for that meal alone because sitting in a room with strangers is better than sitting in your own thoughts in an empty room’ 😔
Would you go to a restaurant by yourself?
Existing aircraft like the Boeing 777 could be used to help cool the planet.
A new modeling study from University College London suggests that stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) — a form of solar geoengineering — could be carried out using modified commercial jets, such as the Boeing 777F freighter, without needing to build expensive, specialized high-altitude aircraft.
The technique mimics the cooling effect of large volcanic eruptions by releasing sulfur dioxide into the upper atmosphere. Once released, it forms tiny reflective particles (aerosols) that scatter sunlight back into space, reducing the amount of heat reaching Earth’s surface.
Traditionally, SAI was thought to require flights above 65,000 feet (20 km) in the tropics. However, researchers found that injecting particles at a lower altitude of about 43,000 feet (13 km) over the polar regions (around 60°N and 60°S) could still achieve meaningful cooling. This altitude is within reach of existing wide-body jets like the Boeing 777 after modifications.
According to the simulations, releasing approximately 12 million metric tons (about 13 million US tons) of sulfur dioxide per year — primarily during spring and summer in each hemisphere — could lower global temperatures by roughly 0.6°C (about 1.1°F), similar to the temporary cooling caused by the 1991 Mount Pinatubo eruption.

@OGQueensgirl@Maguro_Maznaga Short term thinking I’ll do anything so that I can win because if the other side wins, it’ll be so disastrous will never take power again.
Maybe you have demographic distinctions the way we do. We say, red and blue states. Red is conservative and blue is liberal. Within blue states, they have "sanctuary" cities where the city opens up their doors to "asylum" seekers, but it's another way of saying, "You're safe here if you are an illegal". How Biden won was they flew illegals and allowed open borders. Trump was the one who should have won.
So back to California is corrupt. Yes, down to the bone, corrupt. And now, they cannot recognize when the country is doing better because they are in their own swamp.
Be honest… does ANYONE actually use these words in real life? 🤣
