How do military families balance personal political views with respect for civilian leadership?

Clear as mud? Good.

A lot of tongue biting happens, at least in my family.

I went from a kid who had lived and traveled all over the country, to a Sailor who lived/traveled all over the globe, living abroad for almost a decade. I've seen poverty that would make the hardest Conservative cry, and seen government abuse that would make the biggest Statist Liberal scream for revolution.

Why did my ex of 2 years move on so fast after he left me? Why does he act so cold towards me, and as if I don't exist?

I went into GW2 with a jaded view; no real plans were in place, no strategy other than kill the enemy. 20 years later, we are still paying the price for that foolishness.

Oh, and we're going to be in a major war inside of 5 years, so get ready for that.

While I am a Never Trumper, am concerned about the environment (hey, I like clean air and water, sue me), and agree we need some form of social safety net, I also belive we cannot afford to have Daddy Gubmint be the answer from cradle to grave. We have a HUGE bureaucracy that was never meant to be in place, too many rely on government to be their be all/end all support system, and too many suck on that government tit. We need term limits at all levels. We need to scale back SPENDING on a major level…while not reducing tax receipts, at least not for the forseeable future, until we get the budget balanced, and make headway on the national debt.

Is Europe willing to risk losing its alliance with the United States, if they choose to continue the war in Ukraine?

We as Americans by and large live in a protected bubble of ignorance about the rest of the world. Now, before my Eurozone affiliates sneer “told you!”, that's largely because we have what are essentially 50 different countries all jumbled into one, where there are at least (by my count, anyway) 4 different dialects of English alone, not to mention all the other languages floating around, and most people are getting rather Balkanized in their views. Travel is a luxury most can't really afford. Not when 90% of the population is one bad injury/illness away from bankruptcy. Yes, I am pro-UHC; even with it's inherent issues, it's better than what we have.

I am 3rd Generation Navy, joined in 91. Pop was an old Cold Warrior sub driver who had the keys to Armageddon for years. Big Bro is the Black Sheep (Army), and Gramps joined to fight the Japanese that killed his brother, only to be a gunner on a cruiser facing the Germans.

On the flip side, the poorest among us usually has a car, a tv, and an obesity problem, which you don't really see elsewhere.

Hello,hope y'all doin good, i came to Quora to share my strange story , a very weird one , a story when luck smiled at me ,maybe u will enjoy it , let's begin,have fun... A year ago ,I was a real porn addicted(btw I was 18) ,but never had sex before, I don't have a gf I didn't try to find one even ,always thinking to go to find a sex worker but then I just don't , everyday watching different bodies getting fucked and everyday enjoying. One day, I was watching porn, a big ass lady with big boobs ,just after seeing her the image of my female cousin poped in my mind, (let's introduce her : she's 35 years old , very big ass , nice boobs ,not very big but nice,always wearing tight clothes , she's divorced ) and I thought of me fucking her ,I never had sexual desires for her but now I do days went by and when I met her I was so horny ,I couldn't stay with the family cz my penis was clearly erected , I realized this is my first time I get horny for one of my family ,it not illegal in my country.well to make a long story short( if u want details just text me I will tell u 😊),I decided to give her signs that I want to fuck her,finally I decided to have sex and with my cousin , I thought it is the best beggining for me, i started touching her when I came across her in a narrow place , make her feel my hard cock when we hug , I thought it will hard and I will be ashamed but no , I felt nothing and she said nothing , probably she thought it was by mistake,anyways, I decided then to talk with her about sex, waited for her to be alone in a room and talk with her, I confessed everything about me watching porn and addicted..etc,she said it's normal and u are growing up and u must have sex,well at that time I was like whaaat????? Well I didn't control myself and asked her for sex ( horny like I Ve never been before) she said that she will think Abt it ,2 weeka went by then she called me ,telling that she reserved a room in a hotel and we meet tonight ,we met,and bruuhh, sex is great , I mean, I had to find a pirstitue ,what I was waiting for to have such a feeling ????, I will never forget that night, I started kissing her she was kissing hard ,she misses sex so bad , she sucked my dick and swallowed my semen ,I felt I'm in a dream , then when fucked ,her ass was very big and the anus was open ,didn't struggle to get my hard cock inside it , she was obviously missing sex , she was shouting ,fuck me yh fuck me , I go fast after every word until I cum , we did that 3 times , then we went to her pussy , using condoms I fucked her so hard the moans were higher , everything was perfect ,in the end I asked her to lick her body , licked pussy ,ass, boobs,then she sucked my cock until we sleeped ,all I know that she was dirty ,well before even having sex with her I knew she is an open minded woman , and a woman that looks that she donesnt know anything , but she knows everything, but never expected having sex with her ,well she was horny and that helped...but no one of us regretted that sex ever.. We still have sex from time to time ,and I started having sex with sex workers , joining threesomes..etc If u want pics of her text me.
