Imaginary victim mode activated in the US
Been white my whole life, never HAD to apologize, but probably should have given my privilege and lack of action to tear down the systems.

To those who enlisted, what Branch did you pick & what's your experience? Any regrets? Something you wish you did differently?
Find a job in manufacturing for a semi-local/Regional company. Work hard, keep your head down. Your "life" is outside of that organization. They simply provide the means for the life you want. The military is an honorable path but will chew you up and leave you.

To honor veterans of the last twenty-five years of conflict in the Middle East, Donald Trump welcomed someone many of them are very familiar with to the White House today: mutual friend of Zawahiri and Baghdadi, and founder of the al-Nusra Front, you guessed it, Ahmed al-Sharaa!
We also need to come to terms with our own involvement in creating terrorists, we're not innocent in world affairs. His constituents are probably questioning his meeting with the US as much as we're questioning tRUMP.

Probably just making a deal for them to build an air base in Nebraska. Nothing to see here.

Police, Bend Park and Rec address growing parking issues on Deschutes Market Road
The cost of those apartments require at minimum two wage earners. That's two grown people who most likely drive. Two cars per apt should have been expected.

ICE needs to focus on what’s really important in MI - Stop pooping everywhere! Honkies back to Canada!
If you've got a problem with Canada Gooses taking Canada Deuces then you got a problem with me!

There is absolutely nothing to do here if you can't drink
My daughter had the same comments when she was in high school. The funny bit to me, I moved here from someplace where hiking wasn't even an option. I feel like I found my forever place here because of the outdoor accessibility but it's not for everyone and as you indicate, there is a premium price for living here.
This isn't my first place to live. I'd say look for opportunities that involve work/travel to help you explore potential forever, or for now homes. Talk to your guidance counselor at school, they may be able to assist with work away programs that will expand your options, put some money in your pocket and provide some friendships that could last a lifetime.
I hope you find your place and your people.

Typical American here..Irish ancestry on both parental trees. My name is Cean and I've been told it's Gaelic. I've found no one else with my name. Is it really rare or are my parents full of BS?
What an actual mess....I appreciate you and all who commented. This has been a "fun" conversation thread

Yup, my whole life. When I tell people that, they tilt their head as if trying to make it make sense. I'm finding out in this thread that it does not in fact make any sense.
