12 : To You, Someday 2021


If when entering the open area (after speaking to the girls) you see the Beast being thrown off the cliff, you'll have a slightly different experience (and consequently, receive a different ending). When you reach the third climbable wall, you'll find a large bronze cross at the top. Take it and drop down behind you, then take a left then a right quickly after. Use the stasis totem at the edge, then turn around climb the same wall you just climbed. Veer left as you go forward, crossing the now risen slab toward the chapel. The monster will jump at you, causing you both to drop underground, where you'll find the clock. If you've purified the hearts and stop it, you'll kill yourself; if you place the medallion to the right of the clock you'll start the game over.

A survey by personal finance site GoBankingRates asked people to rate their confidence, on a scale of 1 to 5, of someday being rich. A quarter called themselves "very confident," but most also admitted they weren't taking any steps toward reaching that goal.


Our true person is outside of time and space, but looking at the paperwork, I can, in fact, see that I was born in 1954. My inside self is outside of time and space. It doesn't have an age. I'm every age I've ever been, and so are you, although I can't help mentioning as an aside that it might have been helpful if I hadn't followed the skin care rules of the '60s, which involved getting as much sun as possible while slathered in baby oil and basking in the glow of a tinfoil reflector shield.


You're going to feel like hell if you wake up someday and you never wrote the stuff that is tugging on the sleeves of your heart: your stories, memories, visions and songs -- your truth, your version of things -- in your own voice. That's really all you have to offer us,and that's also why you were born.


Seven: publication and temporary creative successes are something you have to recover from. They kill as many people as not. They will hurt, damage and change you in ways you cannot imagine. The most degraded and evil people I've ever known are male writers who've had huge best sellers. And yet, returning to number one, that all truth is paradox, it's also a miracle to get your work published, to get your stories read and heard. Just try to bust yourself gently of the fantasy that publication will heal you, that it will fill the Swiss-cheesy holes inside of you. It can't. It won't. But writing can. So can singing in a choir or a bluegrass band. So can painting community murals or birding or fostering old dogs that no one else will.

Being polite is a small act of kindness we can do for everyone we come across. It is not a trivial thing. There is power behind saying "thank you" and "please," giving someone a warm greeting or taking time to make small talk. These little things instill positive feelings in those around you, especially when you first meet. Different situations will call for different levels of politeness and formality.


As the law currently stands, every \u201cmale citizen\u201d and immigrant \u2014 regardless of legal status \u2014 between the ages of 18 and 26 must register with the Selective Service System, the agency responsible for running a draft. Rep. Chrissy Houlahan of Pennsylvania, a Democrat and former U.S. Air Force officer, wants to strike the word \u201cmale\u201d from the bill and expand the registration to all Americans, regardless of race, color, sex or gender.\n\n\n\nHave questions about the military or the draft and gender? Email us.\n\n\n\nHoulahan introduced an amendment to the 2022 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) that would require women to register for the first time in U.S. history. Opening up the selective service to all genders has bipartisan support in Congress, but some of the loudest opposition stems from conservatives who have said America\u2019s \u201cdaughters, sisters and wives\u201d should not be compelled to \u201cfight our wars.\u201d \n\n\n\nThe amendment, however, did not make it into the version of the NDAA that the House passed in December.\n\n\n\nThe military has not issued a draft since 1973 and is unlikely to do so in the foreseeable future. Women had previously been ruled ineligible for conscription because of military rules involving combat, but those rules have since been changed. Still, the country remains divided on who should be eligible. \n\n\n\n\u201cThe military selective service system hasn\u2019t been used to draft Americans in decades \u2014 I hope it stays that way,\u201d Houlahan said in a statement. \u201cBut should our nation face a catastrophe so large we need to activate our selective service system, we must be ready to have all hands on deck. That includes women.\u201d \n\n\n\nWhat would this amendment mean for women?\n\n\n\nEveryone, including women, would be required to register with Selective Services when they turned 18. However, registration does not equal mandatory conscription. Involuntary summons have been used only a handful of times, most recently during the Vietnam War.\n\n\n\nKara Dixon Vuic, who studies gender and the U.S. military at Texas Christian University, said the passage of this amendment would be \u201chuge, though largely symbolic\u201d when it comes to the fight for women\u2019s rights and gender equity in the military. \n\n\n\n\n\n\u201cRight now, the only legal difference between what men and women do as civilians is men sign up for selective service,\u201d said Vuic, who is currently writing a book on the history of military draft eligibility in the country. \u201cIt\u2019s not that women don\u2019t have to; it\u2019s that they can\u2019t.\u201d \n\n\n\nIn 1980, when the Carter administration sought to reactivate the draft, a group of men filed a lawsuit arguing that the law violated the Fifth Amendment and supported gender-based discrimination. The following year, the Supreme Court ruled that because women were banned from combat roles, they could also be excluded from conscription. \n\n\n\nThe ban on women serving in combat roles was lifted in 2013. Since then, Vuic said the change in conscription policy has been expected. \n\n\n\nHow likely is it that the draft will be reinstated?\n\n\n\nNot likely. The United States has maintained an all-volunteer military for nearly 50 years and recently concluded its longest-fought war without turning to the draft. \n\n\n\n\u201cWe fight wars differently now,\u201d Vuic said. \u201cMost people who think about this kind of issue don\u2019t think there will be a draft again. The kind of massive land armies and total-war invasions seem to have gone by the wayside. Our technology, weapons and goals are different.\u201d\n\n\n\nHistorically, the draft has impacted single men from lower middle classes \u2014 those with fewer options. Those who were married, responsible for dependents or enrolled in college courses were eligible for exemptions. In an effort to ensure a more fair and equitable system, the Nixon administration ordered a lottery system in the late 1960s. \n\n\n\nIf Congress and the president were to suddenly reinstate a military draft today, the Selective Service System would conduct a lottery to determine who is drafted \u2014 prioritizing the 20-25 age group, according to the agency. \n\n\n\nEven if a woman were to be randomly chosen to serve, Vuic said, they are still probably not going to be sent into active combat. Most men who were drafted in World War II, she added, were not sent to the front line as there is a higher need to fill supporting roles, including those in intelligence, science, engineering, health care and aviation. \n\n\n\nThree recently drafted soldiers sign papers in Columbia, South Carolina in October 1972. They were among the last soldiers to be conscripted before the conversion to an all-volunteer military.\n (Ed Eckstein\/Getty Images)\n\n\n\nWhat is the history of conscription in the United States?\n\n\n\nThere have been different iterations of mandatory military service throughout U.S. history, but drafts are fairly rare and have always been controversial, Vuic said. Many believe that conscription is an overreach or abuse of federal power on civilians\u2019 freedoms. \n\n\n\nUnder British rule, each colony formed its own militia composed of adult men. During the Revolutionary War, George Washington struggled to attract enough soldiers with cash and the promise of land. After the war, as the country\u2019s first commander-in-chief, Washington tried and failed to pass legislation to register all men for military service. \n\n\n\nIt wasn\u2019t until the Civil War in the 1860s when Congress gave President Abraham Lincoln authority to require the registration of all able-bodied men between the ages of 20 and 45. The Confederacy also passed its own conscription law, requiring all White men \u2014 and later slaves \u2014 between 17 and 50 to serve for three years. \n\n\n\nCongress authorized drafts again during the Spanish-American War in 1898 and in both world wars. During World War I, the Selective Service Act in 1917 drew a wave of opposition. Tens of thousands of men applied for exemptions, hundreds of thousands failed to register altogether and more than 75,000 were arrested in New York. There was less opposition in 1940, as the United States warily watched World War II unfold. Following the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941, the lawmakers gave the president power to send draftees all over the world. Then again in 1948 as the Cold War intensified, President Harry Truman reinstated the draft for men between 19 and 26. \n\n\n\nIn 1965, opposition to the war in Vietnam and protests against the draft spread on college campuses and military centers. In the following years, thousands of young men destroyed their draft cards or left the country. The Selective Service Act expired in 1973 and ended the government\u2019s ability to enforce conscription.\n\n\n\nIn 1980, the Selective Service System became active again, but the United States continues to operate an all-volunteer policy. There have been repeated efforts in Congress to include women, including in 2014 and 2015. Then, in 2017 the Senate passed the annual defense authorization act but the requirement to include women was later removed while the National Commission on Military National and Public Service studied the issue. The commission released its final report in 2020 and recommended requiring women to register for selective service. \n\n\n\nRep. Chrissy Houlahan prepares for a hearing on Capitol Hill.\n (Tom Williams\/CQ-Roll Call\/Getty Images)\n\n\n\nThe amendment has bipartisan support. What are the proponents saying?\n\n\n\nAccording to a 2021 Ipsos poll, overall support for drafting women has decreased in recent years. In 2016, 63 percent of Americans supported drafting women in the event that Congress reinstated conscription. Now, that number is 45 percent \u2014 with more than half of all men and about a third of all women in favor. \n\n\n\nMeanwhile, many experts and women veterans applaud a move toward equity in the military. \n\n\n\nSuzanne Chod, a professor of political science at North Central College in Illinois, said there is not strong public support for women registering for the draft. Though a bipartisan issue, support still tends to fall along party lines, with Democrats more likely to identify as feminists who support complete gender equity, she added. \n\n\n\n\u201cThis overall lack of strong support, though, illustrates what we call benevolent sexism, which is a sexism that rests on paternalistic beliefs: \u2018Women need protection, and their skills are nurturers, not fighters. We need to protect them from war so as to not corrupt their virtue and purity and inhibit them from fulfilling their duties as wives and mothers,\u2019\u201d Chod said. \u201cThis was the same argument made in the 19th and early-20th centuries to bar women from voting.\u201d \n\n\n\nJen Burch, a 34-year-old Air Force veteran who deployed to Afghanistan in 2010, said she supports the change, alongside most women in the military. Women are the fastest-growing veteran population, and more than 300,000 women served in Afghanistan and Iraq. \n\n\n\n\u201cThis is another step in moving forward for women to be equal, to have the same responsibilities,\u201d Burch said. \u201cWomen are just as good as men and should be part of the draft.\u201d\n\n\n\nRepublican Rep. Mike Waltz of Florida, a former Army Green Beret, has voiced support for Houlahan\u2019s amendment. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand of New York, a Democrat, and Sen. Joni Ernst of Iowa, a Republican and the first woman combat veteran elected to the Senate, have also publicly supported the change. \n\n\n\n\n\nWhat about those who oppose this change?\n\n\n\nThe draft amendment is not guaranteed to pass.\n\n\n\nSen. Josh Hawley of Missouri and about a dozen other Republicans \u2014 including Sens. Marco Rubio of Florida, Ted Cruz of Texas, Tom Cotton and John Boozman of Arkansas, Cindy Hyde-Smith of Mississippi and Mike Lee of Utah \u2014 are working to remove it from the NDAA. \n\n\n\n\u201cIt\u2019s one thing to allow American women to choose this service, but it\u2019s quite another to force it upon our daughters, sisters and wives,\u201d Hawley tweeted. \u201cMissourians feel strongly that compelling women to fight our wars is wrong and so do I.\u201d \n\n\n\nCotton said he would work to remove the amendment before the defense bill passes. The military has \u201cwelcomed women for decades and are stronger for it. But America\u2019s daughters shouldn\u2019t be drafted against their will,\u201d he said on Twitter.\n\n\n\nIf passed, the law would bring the United States closer to the same standard held by other countries, Vuic said. In Norway and Sweden, military or some form of national service is required of everyone. In Israel and North Korea, women are expected to serve but with caveats, including ones that explicitly bar combat roles. \n\n\n\n\u201cThe military relies on women in service,\u201d Vuic said. \u201cThose opposed to women being conscripted are not saying no women in the service altogether \u2014 but just conscriptive service, particularly conscriptive combat. That argument conflates a socially and culturally conservative idea that, to me, says they don\u2019t fundamentally see men and women as equals.\u201d \n","post_title":"The 19th Explains: Could women qualify for the draft someday?
