She didn't say she wasn't familiar with the department of labor, she said she wasn't familiar with their report. What an idiotic headline.

I found out recently that Anyone But You was just a remake of Much Ado About Nothing, which I mean... Is there anything Will Shakespeare hasn't touched!?

Sounds like you were the correct amount of high. It's the only way I get that introspective.

Lol, I guess an oiler would be smaller than a carrier, huh. We'd be refueling on one side and a carrier would be refueling on the other. While we're pulling pallets over via span wire, like chumps, the carrier was just using its helos. Good times

Okay then, I'm being performative. I feel better about myself, thanks.

I guess I just assumed it was IVF, but he never said that. Am I the only person who thinks of a turkey baster when they hear "artificial insemination?"

Great review, random person on the internet!

It's so weird that so many people are calling being accommodating in such a small way "performative" or whatever! I think some people just can't handle change and blame others for it.

I have these conversations all the time and I'm so amused by them, because everyone has wildly different stories.

For my part, 3 ships, all small boys. In the early 2000s we would put socks, undershirts, and skivvies in laundry bags to be taken to ships laundry, where the Ship's Servicemen (SHs) would use industrial washers and dryers to do entire berthings worth of laundry at a time. That's why all uniforms had to be stenciled, they would mostly be thrown in together and then sent back to the right berthing to be divvied out by the compartment cleaners that day.

You could take your chances with your civilian clothes, but for the most part we would go in search of laundromats and cleaning services during port visits.

By the 2010s ships laundry was used mostly for coveralls, and a portion of the space was carved out for individual washers and dryers. I think we had 4 or 5 washers/dryers for the ~280 crew, then a set for the wardroom and a set for the chiefs mess.

I never deleted my shit, but I'm not sure that would have done anything anyway.
