    30 years after I get my first AOL disk, reddit cancels itself and I’m back getting news about Osama’s killer from AOL.

    I mean to be fair assault and public intox are about what i’d expect out of most military vets. It isn’t like the VA’s giving them good mental health assistance after they return home.

    I’ve noticed quite a bit of information posted from sources i don’t really recognize. I usually try to find an AP article if i can since most outlets are just quoting them anyway.

    Edit: people seem to think recognize = aware of. I don’t recognize AOL as a news source.

      If you’ve never heard of aol.com, it’s probably older than you are.
