I discovered Doctor Who while recovering from major back surgery from a military injury.
It's an amazing show to watch whilst tripping balls on painkillers.
Thank you.

One of the best series on WW1 I've seen/heard/read is Dan Carlin's "Blueprint for Armageddon" on his Hardcore History podcast.
I always saw WW1 as this boring, far away irrelevant conflict. This podcast turned it on its head.

How are you holding up brother?
Former PD here, had to deal with some PTSD and ended up resigning (induced by military stuff though).
Do you have any nightmares? I still get them at least once a night. It's usually a variation of "the world is crushing around me" or some shit in a tunnel...wake up in a cold sweat and scare my wife half to death. And the incident happened over three years ago.
Hope you are doing better.

Thanks for your words and I'm glad you're doing better.
It's weird: I have nightmares but my day to day is fine. I left my agency over 2 years ago due to this, and I still want to go back into law enforcement, even though I know that it's not the right choice for my family. I still want to go back in the Army. And that's DEFINITELY not the right choice. Especially since my back is fucked up from my last deployment. It's an itch that won't go away.
I still haven't figured out if I want to do it because I miss it, because I want to prove I still can, or something else. I just told my wife I spoke with a recruiter today about re-upping and going Army CID, and she just about shit a brick. Gave me the "do whatever the fuck you want but don't blame me when shit goes sideways" look. My last deployment really messed up the family dynamics and almost cost our marriage. Yet here I am wanting to go back...am I stupid, crazy, or what?
I guess I don't really have a point just ranting, but I don't really have anybody to rant to. Thanks for your words.

From a comment I made earlier:
lol dude this whole thing is a promo wtf are you talking about?? Ask Me Anything means anything, and as CEO you should be prepared to answer any questions about your product current and potential customers have. This is why folks don’t trust y’all…don’t be slippery. The internet can tell when you’re slippery. Edit: I think I get it now: Yotta is a zero interest rate startup (born out of the plenty of a complacent Fed) and now that the profit mechanism has changed (and investors likely not investing as much) you are struggling to find a compelling value prop. Unless the Fed cranks rates down, or you provide value outside of fun, y’all don’t seem long for the wind :(
