You’re in luck!
Series.. Short film.

Troops already get blood drawn every two years, specifically for HIV screening but for general health purposes and tracking as well.

The referenced video, for everyone to enjoy.

When I was in high school, the local classic rock station played hits from the 60s and 70s. Now it plays Nickelback.

I also make jam, and I also get my supplies from pick-your-own places! I currently have a bag of strawberries and a bag of blueberries that I’ve picked in my freezer waiting to be converted.
Over the years I’ve done those two, along with plum, raspberry, pawpaw, cranberry, blackberry, pomegranate, and mixed berry. I’ve tried and failed at grape, but that was mainly because I didn’t boil it down enough to actually become a jam.
My favorite I think was the pomegranate, though that was so much work I’ll probably never do it again.

Cheetara was paired with Tygra in both the comics and the reboot of the show.

My grandmother was British, and she’d cook the most amazing roast potatoes I’ve ever had. Its just a shame she made them by sacrificing the roast beef…

Our development branch is “working”, then we have specific dated snapshots where we run our datasets through our programs.

Mass Effect Andromeda. I loved the original trilogy, even the third one, and I was hopeful that they’d live up to what they were promising. Instead, we got a garbage game that completely tossed the idea of exploring a new galaxy. I tried to play it 3 different times, just to give it a chance, and I couldn’t go through with it.

I’d say part of the problem for Andromeda was that everyone else got there first in terms of colonization; the player isn’t exploring a new location, untouched by colonists, they’re going to an established settlement and exploring around that instead.

One of my cats periodically likes to stick his head through the window blinds at 2 in the morning to look outside. When he does that he makes these terrible choking noises, which causes me, if I’m awake to hear it, to run out and check on him. At that point, he’ll pull his head out and look at me like I’m the idiot for being worried about him…

Oh, it’s a great book. Or at least, I liked it a lot. The library mulching was opposed by most of the characters.

This reminds me of the book Rainbows End, by Vernor Vinge. In it, a company uses a mulcher to grind down all the books and shelves in a library, then uses scans of the scraps to reassemble the books in digital form for an AR version of the library.

Current hourly forecast says we’re gonna get thunderstorms around 5 here, but the rain will start at 3.

Raw spinach is great, I can just eat handfuls of that all day. Cooked spinach is gross, both in flavor and texture.

He’s playing shuffleboard, I think.

Cause only the good die young.

A fire extinguisher. I’m glad I’ve never had to use it so far…

I thought trains were the most efficient way to ship goods, though I’ll concede that trains are notoriously bad at crossing oceans.

I agree on the whole anthem/pledge thing, but flyovers do have at least some value in that they give pilots flight hours. Those planes would have to be in the air anyway for training, so they might as well use them for advertising via flyovers.
