I work for my state government. After dealing with 1 cruel coworker and 1 bad boss, my advice: When verbally asked to do something, email them and seek confirmation that "per our verbal conversation, you asked that I __, is this accurate? Did I miss any details?" to present as proof if they lie.

REMINDER: Ukraine gave up nuclear weapons. Three decades ago, Ukraine was the third-largest nuclear power in the world. Ukraine agreed to completely denuclearize.
In exchange, the U.S., the U.K. and Russia guaranteed Ukraine's security in a 1994 agreement known as the Budapest Memorandum.

Please heed this advice. Every natural disaster deployment I have been to has had significant morbidity and mortality from carbon monoxide poisoning.
If you have lost power in Kentucky due to flooding and are using a portable generator, remember to keep it outdoors. Do not run it in your garage even with the door open. Portable generators can produce deadly levels of carbon monoxide in minutes.

It is quite the fragile god who needs political power to preserve and enforce their will.
It is quite the powerful God who is born in poverty, partners with the poor, washes feet, heals the sick, advocates for the oppressed, is unjustly killed and still changes the entire world.
