great news there is a very low chance i'll have to ruck at bmt. i'm about to cry actual tears of joy that was the ONLY exercise I was scared about.

[desired-misery]

It's going to be a while out because I have many thoughts and am focused on whumptober (and then a re4r fic that expands/explains some strange Capcom decisions that I will force to make sense hahahah), but I'm getting more and more angry (and inspired) about Jill so I'm gonna need to do a fic that has some scenes from STARs era Jill and Chris because omg!!!! Because now I cannot shake the desire to write a scene of Jill watching Wesker obsessing over Chris even during the STARS era because Jill goes from "great, this Wesker asshole also seems to be underestimating me/pushing me off to the side because oh no, I have boobs" to "... there is something else going on here... it's not just Wesker being sexist..." Because why THE FUCK is Chris still pointman when Jill is there??? Jill is SO OVERQUALIFIED???? Like yes, Wesker, keep the PILOT in charge (you know, Pilots are famously good at organizing and directing ground team forces) and pass over the literal Delta Force operative you fucking added to your team!! But that's another rant about Wesker being creepily Chris obsessed to the point of blinding him to Jill being the real threat. Because Chris clearly looks up to Wesker/wants his approval so Wesker gets validation from Chris. While Jill is super duper unimpressed with Wesker/thinks he's okay but Jill has many thoughts about her new boss. (Not necessarily thinking badly of people who aren't military, but more of a "Wesker doesn't get it, it's a huge cultural gap that I have no hope of explaining to him, so I'll just knuckle down and try to prove myself" but then switching to "oh, so Wesker does not care about my skills or experience. Cool cool. Great. Another place that gives lip service to MY service but then benches me. Very cool of you, guys") but yeah.... Yet again a great moment to focus on RE characters realizing that they don't fit that well into "normal, civilian life" anymore. Especially because Jill, being a veteran, her job as a cop is way tamer than her time in the military, probably feels a weird mix of "I'm glad things are more calmer stateside" but also probably has moments of "wow none of these people understand what I've been through and I feel isolated..." Jill probably jumps into fighting bioterrorism with some thoughts of "thank god, I've trained for this and I am uniquely qualified-- I'm making a difference!" ( People joke about some veterans "don't have PTSD, they have nostalgia", but in reality the culture of the military/being in life or death situations so often, but also having such trust in your fellow soldiers/a system/responsibility... that's what really affects solders who come home from deployments. The civilian world is so low stakes, and people aren't held accountable in the same ways so veterans get frustrated. Not to mention they suddenly don't have anything familiar around them/no familiar structure that unifies their day-to-day experiences. . Another rant lol)

I think you will love the changes I am going to be making to the BSAA/post-RC organizations that Chris and Jill work for. Long story short, Jill is going to end up being the lead/commanding officer over Chris since she has the more applicable experience, etc, but that's a whole mess of a discussion and I haven't sorted out the finer details... but basically Chris learns a lot from Jill both at the RDP but also in the years leading up to Chris leading Alpha.

maybe a little bit of a hot take BUT personally i'm not so much of a fan the way they portrayed early game Jill in the RE1 remaster

Like especially considering her history in the U.S military, especially when you consider her history with special forces - especially when it comes to Delta Force , Jill is fully capable of handling things on her own when it comes to everything .

The biggest kind of gripe I have surrounding this is the first initial encounter in the game, all she does is run back to Barry , bursts through the door, points to it and goes "Barry, it's a monster!" and lets him handle it

Personally I think that Jill would have shot it herself the second she realized something was wrong, that it was chasing her down , and not run back to Barry and let him handle it when she perfectly could have handled it herself. Like ; she was in DELTA for goodness sake , she knows how to handle hostile situations, she knows how to be independent when taking on missions and tasks, she's fully capable to dispatch dangerous situations on her own . She doesn't need to let someone less trained than her to handle it.

maybe i'm just slightly petty about it HAHAHA but yeah

Jill's a very strong woman and I need them to focus on that way more

Every Base ER Has a Story (or 20)

These two things happened at the same night at the Fort Leonard Wood ER when my S.O. was stationed there several years ago.

My husband brought me in due to abdominal pain that spread into my  back.  I checked in and took a seat.  

Some time passed, probably only minutes, but I couldn’t have kept track if I’d wanted to, and two young men in the ARMY were dragging an unconscious 3rd between them.  They were in uniform, the day had been hot, so if i had to guess, it was heat exhaustion and/or/with dehydration.  They manage to prop him up in a chair and one of the two alert men check him in.

Then, staff make him wait.  The men with him start stripping his blouse off. 

Now, for clarification, it’s only them, myself (with my S.O.), and another woman in the ER. Since I had been there, no one else has gone in, or come out.  

I am not a quiet person by nature, but I’m in no shape to yell at some bitches behind the counter to do something about an unconscious young man in the ARMY.  Who leaves someone unconscious like that?  I’m about to say something to my S.O. about telling them to get the young man back to be treated, but before I can, the other person waiting stands up and plays the part of yours truly: Woman Who Takes No Shit.

I was quite proud of her.  Also a bit jealous.  Mostly because she had the patience and ability to command where as I would just bark orders and expect them to do as I say.

No, I am not an officer’s wife.

No, I do not think I am better than anyone else because of my S.O.’s rank.

I simply think it’s an injustice to leave another human being that way and expect other human beings to react the same way to the suffering of others.

Oh, but man, did things move along when she had her say.  Someone wheeled out a wheelchair and the two that brought him in, placed him in it.  Then they all went back.

Now let me just pause for a moment here to explain to you the general attitude of the people working at the Fort Leonard Wood ARMY hospital (officially  General Leonard Wood Army Community Hospital).  It was shit.  They treated you like shit.  They didn’t even look at you when you spoke to them when checking in, and, if you were to die while standing there, I’m fairly sure no one would have noticed.  Or cared.  So this event wasn’t a one time thing.  I have many FLW Hospital horror stories.

Moving along, I finally get to go back.  It’s been at least an hour, according to my S.O. meanwhile, the waiting room had been slowly filling up and no one else had gone back since the unconscious ARMY man & company.  When I go back, I pass a bunch of empty rooms, and a nurses station with several nurses and two doctors standing around, chatting with each other.  Nice work, guys.

Taken to a room, I get my temp and BP taken, then I get to WAIT SOME MORE. Not sure how long it was, felt like forever, but it usually does when you’re in pain. 

Eventually the doctor comes in, I explain my pain as he’s looking at my medical history in the computer.  Trust me, there’s nothing in there that screams MED SEEKER.  I didn’t even come looking for pain killers, I came looking to find out what the hell was wrong with me.  

The doctor asks me a few questions.  While I don’t recall them, I do recall them not being quite relevant to the situation, and the feeling of confusion.  Then he asks, “Are you sure this isn’t just your Bi-polar disorder?”

Say what? Are you kidding me?  Yes, my brain has moved to my abdomen and instead of causing severe depression, it’s causing such severe pain I found it necessary to go into the ER so I can be asked ridiculous questions by someone under qualified to care for anyone who is ill.

I don’t recall the outcome, it was many years ago.  I just recall the rage I felt at being asked if my abdominal pain was due to my bi-polar disorder.  

Where did you get your degree? Oh right, military training. You probably don’t know what a degree is.

Welcome, Welcome!

Hello my darling, sweet readers. My name is Bethany, and it’s wild to think that this is my first post in what could soon could become a community for hundreds of thousands, if not millions. 

So? What makes me qualified to give advice to young moms? Well, I am a full-time homemaker and the caretaker of my darling son, Otto, who is three months old. I was just planning on just being a dog-mom for a few more years until my husband transitioned out of the Coast Guard. (Yes! I’m a Coastie wife! Any other MilSpouses out there?!) However, God had bigger plans, and I couldn’t be happier. 

I’m going to be posting about stuff that has made my life easier, accounts I recommend, and some stuff to help fill your soul when you are running on empty. Until then, let’s (try to) get some sleep!

Well at 17 I just got my highschool diploma, you guys know what this means? I get to sell my soul to the military (the National Guard in particular)! All I need to do is study up for my ASVAB, work out for my physical, and prepare myself that is the mental and physical torture that will be basic training. In all seriousness tho I'm excited to be going down this path (especially since it pays for school and gives me big money 👀) and I'm happy to be training to become a future airman in the Chairforce

The simple truth is that for most of human history, we didn’t have chairs. In earliest times, when people sat at all, they used objects of convenience. Fallen logs, rocks, stumps or they just sat on the ground. Often, people didn’t even use that. In Asia, even to this day, many people prefer simply squatting or sitting on their heels. The very first chairs that came into existence were incredibly rare, and their use was reserved for people of extreme importance: kings, high priests, and the like. Unless you were one of those, you were virtually guaranteed to go your entire life, never having sat on one. #chair #pilot #chairforce (at Pasadena, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkPEL1xPuZv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

FLEXIBLE CHAIR IS BASED ON HUMAN PSYCHOLOGY AND SPORTS

Being within the house all the time, many of us are on Pinterest making mood forums of furniture we needed we had! On that board is my all-time favored studio, LAYER Design, who has unveiled a chair referred to as Membrane which I want for two reasons – 1) a alternate of surroundings in my home so I can have something new to sit back on and 2) because it's miles a beautifully crafted product that works for a flexible lifestyle. The modern-day times have taught us a lot, and one of these matters is choosing products which can be incredibly purposeful in numerous situational settings. Brands like Herman Miller, Steelcase, Haworth Zody, and Serta are making some of the best designs into chair.

The Membrane has been defined as a especially engineered, ultra-light-weight chair that resonates with the bendy desires of future houses which actually shows within the information of its build. Its form and function were based totally on qualitative research from the sports enterprise and mixed with minimal visuals which resulted on this sustainable chair. The assembly is simple – there are 8 supporting tubes with 2 ring-like tubes that form the shape of the chair. You then pull the stretchy, cushioned material over the assembling on skeleton and that’s it, that is your chair. If you move houses or want to carry it out for camping, you could just fold the fabric and acquire the fast tubes to set it up anywhere you like. “We supply technically worrying answers that respond meaningfully to human behavioral trends,” says the team. The chair is portable, cutting-edge and based on a design strategy that money owed for emotion as strongly as useful desires. The materials they are using to provide it an ethereal appeal in contrast to the cumbersome fixtures we are used to, it honestly lightens (see what I did there?) up the room. LAYER Design desired to create a chair that was progressive with its cloth use however also based on the ever-converting human needs and that they have brought it with Membrane.

No Emergency Exit Found

Congratulations, you married into the military - the NCO side.  Or, in my case, my spouse joined up one day and came home with the big surprise.  That was 12 years ago, and we’re still together despite that little (read as: giant) incident.  

You’re the new spouse. So here’s the question, will you and yours make it to the two year mark?  Never mind two.  What about one?

I’ll just start with the spouses coming into the fold whose partners have already been in the military.  You’re in for a big shock and someone needs to tell you, because no one ever does.  You are never coming first.  Not if your partner wants to be a part of the military.

So, don’t throw a tantrum when they work late, or when they have to go out into the field for a week with no contact, or especially when they have to deploy anywhere from 9-18 months with occasional long durations of communication blackouts.

Don’t repeatedly call and bother them at their work number.  Unless you are completely incapacitated and incapable of caring for yourself, whatever it is can wait for them to come home, or sit in a text message on their phone until they can get around to answering it.

Also, don’t expect there to be a ton of money.  So don’t think about overspending, stop partying like you’re rich, and for the love of everything that you may consider holy, regardless of whether or not you have a religion, don’t start having babies immediately from day one.

With some of the highest divorce rates in the country, do you really even need to ask why?

Oh, but you’re in love?  And they’re about to deploy?  Trust me, marriage isn’t going to help that deployment, and the deployment isn’t going to help that new marriage.  Especially if you’re getting pregnant just as they’re leaving.  Surprise! Good chance no one may be there to help you.

Now that you’ve had some time to think about it, know it’s not my intention to prevent marriages, but to make people think before leaping into one.  I’ve seen the high divorce rates around me in friends, neighbors, and strangers in the neighborhood.  The military is like high school, people gossip constantly, you will always know what’s up even if you just talk to one person.  

I’ve also seen an immense amount of counseling go into young members of the military, who “just want to be with the person I love most.”  Not a lick of sense in the head of someone with little to no life experience outside of life with mom and dad and their short existence without them.  One of the biggest reasons they jump in is because they’re leaving.

If you can’t wait out that deployment to get married, can’t make a long distance relationship work for half a year without being faithful, then I’m afraid things are likely to go south for the marriage.

Think of the kids.

And the pets.

Poor pets. :(

But that’s for another post.  Until then, this is the W.I.F.E. with crap you didn’t want to hear. Ta!

P.S. - I’ll try for “nice” next time.

Yeah it's called wanting to go to Hawaii, Italy, or the UK for my duty stations and getting fucking Ft. Hood. I think the airline service is the Air Force?
