Truthy Bomb by OVD : VA appointment and update

 Hey everyone,

  So late last night I got a call from the Oakland VA for an Ultrasound appointment. So I was able to find a ride in short notice and went to the appointment this morning. It's for cancer screening but I know my Doctor just put it in so I'd still be in the system current. The VA was a ghost town. I saw 5 people the whole time I was there. I got a strange Email about Oakland VA falling under SF instead of Northern CA VA now which means they maybe closing it soon. making it really hard for the thousands of Veterans here in Oakland. That shows Biden doesn't give a fuck about us anymore than Trump did...great. 

   Anyways I made it. I'm in massive pain but I'm eating a cookie right now...then it's back to bed.

    It amazes me that veteran care is like that in California. here we've got two great Veteran's clinics plus mobile ones for rural areas, that is just bullshit for you to have to worry about getting to see a doctor 😡 not that your body could take it, but if they do move the clinic do they then provide transportation? Enjoy your cookies...Maria

      They have busses to some other facilities but if you use them you are literally trapped there for most of the day. Something I can't do.

      Yeah that's what I figured and it definitely sucks to be done with an appt and have to wait to get home

    Btw, I only made it 20 miles on my Pan sunday, had to have a friend ride it home and have been in dire pain since, so even though I already knew it, that's that for me riding ever again 😥 have a good night..Maria

    The way veterans are treated is outrageous and despicable. ESPECIALLY combat veterans with physical and emotional damage. I am very fortunate that I don't have to depend on the VA for my own healthcare.

      We're fortunate here now to have the service for veterans that we do but it was a long time coming but definitely is not like this every where and that fn sucks. The way our veterans are treated or shall I say not treated is an embarrassment in this country 😥

    The saddest part is...even though the VA has many issues it's still better Healthcare than most people pay tens of thousands of dollars a year for.

Truth Bomb By OVD : Ukraine (Proxy) War updaye

 Hey Everyone,   So the war in Ukraine has been bloody but not much has happened the last month in regards to land controlled by either side. The HIMARS are doing serious damage to Russian command and supplies and they only have 4 of them. The Russians said they took them out but that has been proven to be a lie. The only reason Ukraine isn't dominating and taking their land back is the west isn't supplying enough. It's obvious the west IS considering this a Proxy war. That means their goal is to bleed Russia by keeping the war going. This is why the Ukrainians are not getting enough support. I warned of this but now it's clear that it is the case now.    There is talk of giving them 30 HIMARS and F-15's, F-16's, F-18's(Hornets are used by the USMC like the A-10's) and A-10's. But it's just talk and these will require training. Maybe next year is what I'm hearing. Thousands of Ukrainians will die because of these delay's. Also if the Repu

Truth Bomb By OVD: Ukraine war update

 Hey Everyone,   So the front lines haven't moved much but the fighting is fierce along the whole line. It's still winter but spring is around the corner so both sides are gearing up for spring offenses. The newly promised Tanks from the west still haven't arrived and there isn't enough of them to make a difference. The Russians are losing thousands of Troops but their real purpose will be seen soon enough. You have to understand Russian war doctrine to see what the real Russian plan is. So lets talk about that. The Russians throughout history have used the same playbook. They invade or instigate a war thinking they will win fast. Then they lose badly as their forces are poorly trained and corruption ensures they are poorly equipped. They respond just like they are now by conscripting massive amounts of men and plugging the holes and holding the line. The second unsaid part of that is these conscripts are also being used to keep pressure on their enemy and use up their

Truth Bomb by OVD : Personal update

 Hey everyone,   If anyone is even still reading this...My feeling of isolation is getting bad. Really bad. Being cut off from Facebook was bad enough. I haven't heard from a lot of friends from real life for more than a year now. Twitter helped and I made some new friends and was able to connect to a bunch of fellow Veterans. That's gone now too. So now I kind of drift from day to day with little to no contact with the outside world. It's demoralizing to say the least. I'm down right depressed and don't see any future for myself anymore. I've always been a very social person and now I have no way to reach anyone but this and the numbers of people that even read this anymore has dwindled to a couple. Soon I'll probably stop bothering with this either.    My pain levels are through the roof. I got only an hour of sleep last night(and why I'm typing this at 5 am. Pain meds and pot cookies combined didn't help. My left leg is now starting to get as bad
