Multiple USS Abraham Lincoln sailors have tried to go overboard amid extended deployment, families say (r/news)
- traceyh415: My father was deployed for six months with no port of call during the Cuban missile crisis. It changed him as a person. He would NEVER wait in lines, did not like confined spaces, did not really like to be around people that much. My understanding is that it was like doing a jail sentence especially the way they were isolated from outside communication.
- AstralElement: As someone who was stationed on this very ship 23 years ago on a year long deployment, I really feel for these sailors. Deployment sucks, extended deployment really sucks. Your whole life is on pause. You can’t be with your family, you often have few friends, the food is often not great and really bad watch rotations if you’re early in your Naval career. The only saving grace for me with videogames and reading. People talk about how big they are, but it gets really small really fast. You don’t really have internet, maybe some email… that’s it.
- Whatdoesthibattahndo: We’ve never had a carrier from this era deployed for this long. Things are going to break in ways we didn’t even know they could break. Normal schedule is 6 months deployed, 6 months work-up, 6 months qualification and preparation for the next deployment. USS Lincoln is probably going to need longer and some maintenance might have to be pulled forward due to increased wear without proper work.
AP Exclusive: ICE plans to give officers gloves that can deliver painful electric shocks (r/news)
- One-Environment-1444: These are good to repel people. You shock them and they want to get away. But people are already trying to get away from ICE not attack them. So these will mostly be used for holding someone down and shocking them while they are already in custody. I bet there is no way to determine when they have been used also. You watch.

Credit card debt rises to \$1.26 trillion, nearing all-time record (r/news)
- CharlieKonR: [“Economists have also pointed to rising prices, including for essentials like groceries and gas, as a factor behind rising card balances.” …”The percentage of credit card balances that were more than 90 days delinquent rose from 7.6% to 12.8% from mid-2022 through early 2026.”
“There are a lot of households who live paycheck to paycheck, and it just needs one thing to happen to them that could lead to a delinquency,”
Not just discretionary spending, either. Not good.](https://www.reddit.com/r/news/comments/1vlylun/comment/p3591pb/)
- za72: The economy is cannibalising itself, ~healthy markets gave way to greedy interests to continue to appear to be healthy… now we’re here… this is generational debt as in decades on top of decades of debt
- allllusernamestaken: [I work in consumer fintech. We have the data. It’s not pretty and I’m honestly expecting our Lehman Bros moment to happen soon. I don’t know what it is or when it’ll happen but it’s going to send shockwaves into the economy and whole thing will come tumbling down.
If you’re still employed, trim whatever money you can and put it away in a rainy day fund.](https://www.reddit.com/r/news/comments/1vlylun/comment/p35ofnd/)
What’s a “common knowledge” fact that you genuinely had no idea about? (r/AskReddit)
- theguyfromtheweb7: I hate this one, but here we are: when I was a kid, like 8 or 9, I thought that the sound cicadas make actually came from the sun because, in ever cartoon in the 90s, if it was hot in the show, they’d zoom in on the sun shining and that sound would go with it.
- procrastinatorsuprem: I was about 7 months pregnant when I found out that women bleed for weeks after giving birth.
- nvd20: I had no idea that tiny arrow by the gas icon tells you which side the tank is on.
