Teo's Hot Take: With very few rare exceptions, the U.S. Military has never given us, and probably never will give us, our constitutional rights and freedoms. They were not there to uphold the Voting Rights Acts, prevent unconstitutional kidnapping and internment of Japanese-American citizens...

... during WW2, or even protect Roe v. Wade from being overturned. If anything, the U.S. Military will be the primary instrument used to strip U.S. citizens of their rights and freedoms. Am I wrong? Well, when was the last time the military disobeyed clearly illegal orders?

So is there anyone who can help me with a soldering job, or know someone who can? I'm hoping to install new TMR joysticks in a PS5 controller. Someone local to Orange County, CA would be nice, though Los Angeles and San Diego aren't out of the question.

FYI, I was admitted to the hospital a week ago for problems with breathing. After much testing, poking, prodding, and masking, what seemingly started as exasperated asthma turned into possible pneumonia infections and then a viral-triggered heart failure leading to fluid in my lungs.

I was given an angiogram, but found no major blockage (yah!), but I still had problems breathing and coughing. I'm better now and have been discharged. I no longer get as winded when I need to wipe my own ass. Anyway, everybody have a Merry Christmas, and don't make the Baby Jesus cry.

"Juice me up, Doc!" I got another steroid, this time injected into my right hip. I've been having problems beathing the past few weeks. I feel better already. No xenomorphs on the x-rays.
