It’s the Blended Retirement System and it is a blend of a pension and an employer-sponsored retirement account. In the BRS service members went from 2.5% per year of service to 2% and gained a 5% match to their Thrift Savings Plan. So a member retiring at 20 years in the BRS would receive 40% of their base pay as pension vs 50% under the traditional military retirement system.

TIL. Thanks

Are you referring to the hate symbols of 88 for Heil Hitler and 14 for the fourteen words? I think you’re reading into something that isn’t there.

No. There is such a thing as “national socialist black metal”, but trying to correlate a baphomet tattoo with NSBM is a stretch. He very well could be a Nazi, but I wouldn’t associate that with satanism solely from some images. There are assholes in every religion, we don’t need another satanic panic out of ignorance and fear.

Might as well link to the actual source which has a lot of great content.

Not exactly what you’re asking for, but I’ve learned a lot about agriculture from Farming Simulator. It’s neat driving around and understanding what the farmers are doing in their fields.

There’s a real estate bias, but I’m a fan of the Bigger Pockets family of podcasts.

My blocked community list got significantly shorter when they introduced instance blocking. Got pretty tired of playing furry porn community whackamole.

There’s that one guy that HATES sunfish.

The most notable deaths in surfing

without her and her family’s knowledge, Galena hopped inside a package full of products they were returning to Amazon.

I wonder if someone in the family is “surprised” and “relieved” on the outside but very disappointed on the inside that their plan to get rid of the cat got foiled.

One strategy that worked with my spouse since it was also new for them is to temporarily shift into reverse before shifting into park. The back up camera let’s them visually confirm that they have made it far enough into the garage. You can even place tape down for them to indicate off of.

I back my vehicle into parking spaces almost exclusively so it was natural for me, but it did take them some getting used to. Now we have no issues and they’re confident each time.

Yesterday I tried to manifest it to be a Tuesday, but it was still another Monday. Hoping today can be a Wednesday.
