Word is he separately has a legal case against the USG due to his refusal to receive the covid vaccine on active duty. I believe his is the case the Supreme Court just shot down. I cannot verify the authenticity of that rumor, but the names seem to be the same.

Also heard USAF guy, SLC based.

I’m fairly certain that was what was reported in the news

There has been a lot of recent news that has really given me pause. I'm kind of in that mode where I hope nothing weird will happen to me and I'm not trying to make light of these situations too much.

Because it's getting really weird out there....

I am here to tell you that if it can happen to Joe, it can literally happen to anyone. Nobody is immune..

It has made me pause and really think as well...

Don't take shrooms because you're sad. If you're sad tell someone, might be your spouse or your best friend, hopefully you have a priest/minister/preacher/chaplain. I'm convinced that pilots are subject to all or more of the stressors that cause "civilians" to go off their rocker and they're convinced (for good reason) that if they say it out loud they'll lose everything they've worked for. You don't need to go to your chief pilot or the FAA and tell them you're sad, but you do need to talk to someone that knows you. Keeping that crap bottled up is bad for not only you but also the people around you. Honesty and humility when talking about yourself is hard, but talking to someone you trust openly helps. Don't let it fester, put your ego aside and find someone you can talk to privately. That's the only advice I can give, trying to talk to a bunch of type A personalities is like hitting yourself in the head with a hammer, it feels better after the pain stops.

Maybe. My point was more about talking to someone, anyone, before going off the rails. An ATP is not a shield against the hardships life presents, it might be a magnifier, just saying...
 
I’m not sure of the attraction of mushrooms. Pick the wrong kind, which happens to look just like the tasty kind, and it dissolves your liver and kidneys over the course of 7 excruciating days.

I think the good ones grow in cow dung. Not putting that in my mouth. Who figured that out?

wait, are we talking food mushrooms, or psychedelic mushrooms? I think porcini season was just upon us up here, or at least CPB radio told me so. Those and chanterelles are fungi's gift to humanity. Obviously I don't forage myself, because of what you say, but who knows.....maybe one day I will learn from an expert.

I grew up on Whidbey. Many of my peers tried mushrooms before their first beer.
