Hegseth is low human capital and so is much of the rest of Trump's cabinet.
You just said your primary objection to him was aesthetics. Which is it?

This group probably does not double check targets to make sure they aren’t schools- if I had to guess, their job is to write forms that the people checking targets to make sure they aren’t schools fill out.

The US military maintains a network of schools for service member’s Children. This is the best public(Catholic schools are better) school system in the country going off test scores and is a regular line item in the budget overseen by the DoD- it’s not ad hoc.

Nobody thinks the US military was trying to kill Iranian girls on purpose.

I don't think you should be friends with people you don't like. But you should befriend people who you don't like that much. Talk to your coworkers, your neighbors, your in-laws' cousins, make friends with people you're connected to by circumstance and not robust common interests. The modern western idea of adolescence has destroyed this concept of connecting with people who are... fellow citizens, and not fellow anything else, by imprinting social bonding through an idea of absolute similarity. Learning to bond across an inferential gap is a core human experience we're missing, and you should seek it out. Maybe you'll help someone else, maybe they'll help you.

I mean petroleum producing parts of Canada will eventually secede and the country will collapse. One party Canada won't last forever.

The drive by’s and burglaries gone wrong murders which go unsolved were also not committed by Einstein. Statistically Dr Moriarty’s murders were all committed against cheating spouses or something where you don’t need Sherlock to figure it out. Dumb, impulsive people kill more randomly, because they are dumb and impulsive.

Of course, we must bear in mind that most murderers are impulsive dummies.

Or mom makes her put herself out there until she goes out with someone. It happens.

This was probably something built into the software and not something deliberately chosen by the business.

Doesn’t speed dating have a problem with not being able to get enough men?

It’s way easier to follow swing dancing than lead, or at least I had more trouble learning it than the women I danced with did. Either I’m unusually bad at dancing or one role is easier than the other.
It’s worth noting that in my bubble, Woodstock is just some people doing drugs in a desert, including among the elderly.
Edit: it shows how much importance we put on it to not know it was held at a different location from burning man. I don't understand why 'some losers did drugs at a concert' is famous.

If you sit in the right shooting lane, you’ll get a couple of shots off every 20-30 minutes. The season is usually the longest of any game species except rabbits or squirrels.
A dog is helpful, but you can just sit in the shade watching with a Gatorade and a shotgun just as well without. Dove dogs make great family pets, like duck dogs. The birds aren't very big, but there’s a lot of them, and you can easily stack up enough to have some kebab or dumpling protein for the off-season.

The most important factor in anyone’s life before a certain age- probably more like 21 for most people, but certainly before 15 or so for the vast majority- is not government policy. It’s parents. And parents in the US are unusually willing to exercise their authority to curtail screen time/electronic entertainments. That they do so imperfectly is a much more eminently fixable problem than screens being bad.
Banning social media before a certain age, for example, will meaningfully convince parents to enact and enforce that rule in a way that Chinese gaming laws likely won’t, because American society is different from Chinese society and the inherently subsidiarist nature of minority allows this solution to work better.

You don’t need a foolproof system. You need a system that imposes enough friction to meaningfully reduce the fraction of teens on social media.
These are very different things. Notably, the drinking age does not mean 0% of your local highschool goes to a kegger before graduation- does this mean it doesn’t work and should be abolished?

But US parents are already unusually likely to set screen time/technology use limits, partly driven by conservative parents’ ideological beliefs. That they often do this in a non-optimal way and it isn’t spread evenly through society are fixable-ish problems.

While that’s fair, there’s a pretty easy remedy against the classic pump and dump- don’t sleep with him until you have your relationship. The classic pump and dump scenario might include some deception, but it does not typically imply rape.

Because women get a steady diet of fear porn about how men are all out to get them(and to be fair, some are. Not all or most, but certainly some). When they've had 'men are malicious and dangerous' pounded into their skulls they'll not go out of their way to meet men. Simple as.

You're plenty young enough. My grandpa hunted into his sixties and only stopped because he had shoulder surgery for something unrelated and never recovered enough to handle the recoil. My hunting club has guys in their seventies, but they get the young guys to haul their carcasses and skin them for them. They are, to be clear, not rabbit hunting.

Fall Turkey hunting, yes.
Spring turkey hunting is a different animal, you will be calling the Turkey in. This is a very high skill endeavor and you probably need somebody to teach you. You also need head to toe camo; veil, camo boots, gloves, no hunter orange, because you’ll probably be on the ground and turkeys see color very well. On the plus side they can’t smell. IMO you’re better off dove hunting if you want to switch to mostly birds.

Probably pulling overtime to recommend a course of action in the ME.
US bases include housing for soldiers and their families, like normal cookie-cutter suburban neighborhoods. Changing this changes the model of military service.
