I can’t believe I actually have been evaluating my house and property for defense against possible action from my own tyrannical government .. people are making comments around here that seem like they’re going to form their own “ice “ style groups to enforce loyalty. I am blown away.

We used to build the pier for offload out of ice every year.. definitely a step in the right direction.

usantarcticprogramBig news: the launch of the NSF Discovery Pier!On October 25, 2025, @gunderson_marine launched the new NSF Discovery Pier, built for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and headed to Antarctica to support polar logistics and science. The vessel will journey nearly 6,000 miles across the Pacific Ocean and Ross Sea to reach McMurdo Station via New Zealand.Why this is a big deal:❄️It will enable a stronger, more reliable supply chain = fewer delays and greater resilience for Antarctic operations.❄️No more rebuilding the ice pier each year. Crews can focus time and resources on science support and station improvements.❄️Part of NSF's ongoing modernization through the Antarctic Infrastructure Recapitalization (AIR) program, building for the future of polar research.The pier is expected to be fully operational in January 2027.The name of the pier is a nod to the National Science Foundation's tagline, "Where Discoveries Begin."📷: @gunderson_marine #USAP #Antarctica #McMurdoStation #Infrastructure #EngineeringInnovation #Sustainability #ScienceSupport #DiscoveryPier #PolarLogistics

I think VA psychiatrists are sharing information with other powers on which ones are aggressive, etc. Just weird inquiries from the VA after my last appointment with the shrink.

For the umpteenth time, I have grown weary. I’m trying to explain the side effects of a TBI to people. I’m worn out. I can’t do it anymore.
