Interesting notion... sounds doable except I don't have the public speaking charisma nor a crowd-silencing compelling story to pull it off.

I attended a few "career survivability" seminars during my 27 years. The best, without a doubt, was Bobby Smith, the Mississippi Trooper...

Two guys I worked with killed themselves. The agency could have not cared less... sent out the perfunctory 'thoughts and prayers to family during this difficult time' email then never said another word, as if they never existed.

That's the $60,000 question... would WWIII be total annihilation as so often predicted... or is there a spectrum of possibilities??

All I know is Reddit is full of videos of the turrets of Russian tanks popping off like bottlecaps and unexploded missiles sticking out of the Ukranian dirt,...

My 'normalcy bias' (assuming tomorrow will always be like yesterday) has me thinking all this talk of Putin pushing the red button is mostly hot air, used to impress his domestic audience (who adore their pale little toughie in the Kremlin) and create risk aversion in NATO and the U.S. from helping...
