I know the apostrophe is divisive, but I'm in a bad spot, ok?

/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

My fam had SoS—Shit on a Shingle. Canned corned beef hash and potatos on a toast. It was cheap and always available at the base commissary—wherever we happened to be stationed.
I’m doing pretty well now. But I still make it once in a while, maybe to kinda remind and contrast myself of where I came from.
Crazy to me that the military can't pay enough to allow families to be supported on military bases.
It’s even crazier than you think. They actively make it as hard as possible. Live on base?—they take the whole BAH. Live off-base? Cool, well now your BAH probably isn’t enough and you have to commute and checkpoint every day. Living in a high cost of living area? Well they only have a few categories of high CoL, so you might get paid the same adjustment to assign to Langley as you would to Ramstein even with oversea housing allowance. And everything is expensive there.
We did ok. Dad was an officer so he was in the good pay scales, but it was still far from the lavish lifestyles Hollywood might have you think officers live. Maybe the O-7s and above live it up.
He got a phat retirement though. So that’s pretty dope. Personally I’m happy as hell to be 100% civy and working in private enterprise.
