I fought Iraq in 2003 but the first president I could vote for was Bush v Kerry.
If that doesn’t do it I don’t know what will.
Also, please stop reminding me how old I am.

Crocs or sandals. Wear them with socks. This keeps your feet dry so they don’t smell and you can easily remove them for comfort and put them back on to go to the bathroom.
And
Any noise cancelling headphones with something to play music or podcasts. Even if you sleep through it, planes are loud, you should protect your hearing.
Easily ants. Google ant swarm animal. But not right before bed. There’s a few insects that are evolved specifically to fight ants but everything else is food to them.
If you’re being hailed as a hero in the US and you aren’t a politician…
Run. Do not walk away, run. Society is absolving itself of caring for you after the inevitable sacrifice of your health and/or sanity.
Also research the downside first. Some “dream jobs” are marketed that way for a reason.
Bloomberg, Forbes, and Fox News jump to mind.
Edit - you know looking at Bloomberg’s site again I think you could make an argument for it but it does appear to be mostly concerned with fact based news centered on the finance industry. I’m just used to seeing shit guest opinion articles from them.
Edit edit - in their place I offer up CNBC with their personal finance propaganda perpetually trying to convince Americans they just aren’t budgeting well enough.
I see how that happened. If you check down thread though you’ll see I would rate a campaign organization for the GOP as right, not far right.
Then it should at least be accurate.
I expect the fact based objective sources to be rated as center/not biased. And sources calling for a complete destruction of liberal democracy to be far right, yes. The campaign site should be listed under Right as it’s transparently a partisan organization.
The comparison with leftists here would be if they listed Anarcho-Communists as “left center”. But then your response tells me everything I need to know. You’ve gone right into exaggerated rhetoric meant to paint me as someone from the far left.
You can check the categories on the MBFC website yourself but a couple choice picks in the “right center” category are the Ayn Rand Institute, advocates for self governance, and American Action Network.
The first two are libertarian and pro Anarcho Capitalism. The second one attempts to masquerade as a non political education tool about politics. And third is a partisan group that runs campaign ads for the GOP.
Meanwhile in left center we have NYT, WAPO, and BBC.
You can check this yourself on MBFC’s site but sure I’m feeling useless today. Link
Sinclair and Fox News stations would be center right. Fox Opinion TV would be Right to Far right depending on the show and Ayn Rand is far right because it’s anarchy-capitalism.
Center, or least biased are your fact based papers of record. BBC, NYT, WAPO, Baltimore Sun, LA Times, etc.
US politics is too.
This needs to die in a fire. It’s not the US Overton window. You can see that by far right sources listed as right center. Like the Ayn Rand Institute.
The bot isn’t even tuned for US bias. It’s tuned for conservative US bias. The papers of record that work really hard to be objective get listed as “left center”.
It’s not even on point for American politics. It’s clearly a conservative viewpoint.
Worse it lists BBC as “left-center”. Which is weird in itself since the designation is usually lean left or center left. Political scientists don’t stress the loaded word first. So much about MBFC exposes the site as a biased amateur project it’s hard to imagine how it got as much traction as it did.
Check out how they rate Guardian and how they rate the Ayn Rand Institute. Then check the fact checking difference between Guardian and NYT. It just gets worse the more you look at it.
That is the instance. Other instances like lem.ee aren’t doing it. At least I don’t think they are.
My favorite was when he accused the entire world of giving people to Harris so she could place them into the US as harmfully as possible.
