LGBT+ are the values of a nominal variable sexuality. (maybe not the T tho). Ls are almost only going to sex with other women. If they go both ways, then they’re B, not L. If they go all ways, then they’re P(ansexual). So it seems like less of a spectrum, and more of a single variable. I may be wrong since Im not up on the latest in sexual identities.

While autism is a variable (levels 1-3), it’s ordered, not nominal. The autism spectrum is made up of many variables that are also continuous, not discreet. And they are positively correlated. If one variable is high, it’s likely others would be too. So, you can’t say someone is a kind of autism anymore than levels 1-3. Beyond that, the spectrum varies way to much to typify.

it doesn’t mention Jesus

lol 😆

Nah, I don’t need to identify. That’s too restrictive. I’m looking for a shorter way to describe it when asked.

Maybe not then. It’s what a teacher told the class. I’ll have to check once I get home later.

Thanks! This gave me a lot to think about

Yep! I was trying to find a short way of describing my situation in this area when asked about it.

Thank you! I found a free copy on on Google Play Books, so I’m gonna give a look with my balls of eye.

Fun fact: I remember learning about this in school. Apparently, that’s the Bible that people in court typically swear upon. 🧑‍⚖️ maybe not

This is it!! Thank you very much 😁

I like this one too! Thank you

Thank you! 😊 It gets more true every day. Yours is cool too. To me, it has a sense of paradox or maybe being on a different schedule than the rest of us.

Yes! I like this one. Thank you.

To me, that seems to exclude the Jesus part tho.

I was in the US military, so that was my angle. Don’t know about the rest. @[email protected] seems like they might have been in the US military also.

no problemo

Small unit leadership. Units down to the squad level (13 Soldiers/Marines), are in control of themselves. They are given objectives, constraints, and all relevant info, then told to achieve the mission. They’re also in constant communication with other nearby units. There is no solid plan. It is all contingency.

Squad leaders get a 5 paragraph order: SMEAC

• Situation: What the battle field look like.
• Mission: What needs to be accomplished. Who, what, when, where, and most importantly, why? The why lets unit make adjustments as necessary.
• Execution: Overall greater goal, enemy weak spots, and what other units will be doing for the mission.
• Admin & logistics: Beans (food), bullets (ammo), band-aids (medical info/gear/plans), & bad guys (EPWs)
• Command & signal: Command structure and communication matters

These units figure it out on their own and coordinate with other units that are in control of themselves also. From what I hear, Russian troops are all dependent on commands from an officer! lol. That would be insane in the American military. Everything would get paralyzed every time there is an unexpected issues, which in battle, is basically all there is. Battle is a series of unexpected issues. To quote the philosopher Mike Tyson, “Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth.”

tl;dr: The American military is trained to function assuming units know how they function best and everything will go to shit. It’s designed to maximize individual strengths and be chaotic af. American units don’t know what they’re doing until they’re doing it.

I think he walked in, said the message, and died right there just like in a movie.

What if it was 1 million people vs 1 person?

Everything with this guy is a scam. I wonder what this one is going to be.

Though I’m not gonna say my name here, I could respond to that thread.
