So, veteran here. I've tried to talk people out of joining the military or at least trying to avoid jobs with high probability of seeing combat. Usually the result is they just start prying about what combat is like and make statements about how much they want to experience it.

Another tack I haven't tried but it might be more effective, is to describe how miserable it is to have the stench of a burn pit wafting over you, always wondering if the distant gunfire will move in your direction, being stuck manning a 24/7 watch where if even one person who can do that job dies or is otherwise incapacitated you will be stuck doing 12hr shifts instead of 8. Then you get back home and have to fight tooth and nail for benefits from the country that fucked your life up in the first place.

War is hell, coming home is hell, forcing that on someone can only be justified if they are literally at home fighting off an invading force.

Not always, I'll often forget to shower until I look in the mirror and realize my hair needs to be washed. Peak pandemic I'd sometimes go a few weeks without showering until I could smell myself. Just not something that's on my mind most of the time.

Meat chickens are called broilers, and egg chickens are called layers. Since they have been selectively bred for each specific purpose

Have you considered switching to Matrix or Signal over Discord?

I'm the main character, obviously, why else would the sun revolve around the earth? Purely to honor me the main character, reincarnated in this dying world to save it from the demon lord known as See Oh Too, and its generals Shell, BP, and Chevron. /S

The best kind next to feta
