I am low contact, but she is way too mentally ill to have positive relationships with people. I sympathize that she can’t control it, but it’s kind of like asking me to put my hand on a stove to please someone else. I truly gain nothing but unpleasant feelings from being around her. I feel nothing but aversion to the thought of being around her. Even as a child I avoided her.

It just doesn’t bug me to eat the same thing all week, and I’d certainly rather cook less than more. Salads and sandwiches might be good for you, because you can change the fillings.

That’s the point. Negligent actions often aren’t intentional. You can be negligent and not intend to harm someone. Not knowing things you should have known is hurtful.

There’s often an element of negligence though.

just your typical kavanaugh stop.

Wow. There was just zero reason for him to say anything. Nobody is accusing Fortnite of being unsafe for kids. And he chose to say that. For himself.

How’d you feel after? Ours in PGH had a low turnout but I always feel better after going. Less alone.

Extremely common. I got into this unfortunate habit of hitting post and then editing typos afterward, and I think it increased the amount I do it by a lot.

Soup party sounds awesome.

I’m waiting on laundry, then I’m going to go to the gym, then I’m going to make mushroom stroganoff. Yesterday I managed to read 3 whole pages of Monday’s reading assignment, so hopefully today I can beat that.

My dad is still working on accepting that I’m not going to be able to work an enjoyable job in my life lol.

The AI doesn’t understand anything in any language. It’s just putting words in order by their association.

standard American big weekly trip + a few small trips, like a single bunch of spinach or a single carton of oat milk. American products are portioned to be family sized, so you’ve got a few days worth when you buy something.

It’s just part of our mating dance. It feels good and gets us in the mood.

“He said attorneys submitted her birth certificate and other documentation that they say proved she’s a U.S. citizen. But it still wasn’t enough to get her released from ICE custody.”

"In my years now of being an immigration attorney, I have never had to go this far for a case. What we were finally able to get and what we worked on getting was a lengthy affidavit from a medical professional, a doctor who described why the birth certificate was authentic,” Pérez said.

“Her attorneys say she remains under ICE supervision. They said the Department of Homeland Security continues to challenge in federal court the claim that she is a U.S. citizen and she still faces the threat of deportation.”

Horrifying but lines up with what happened in Chicago. They only care about what their internal data says, not facts.

Steal, guys. The word is steal.

I haven’t done any research into this idea, but I was thinking it could be a fair compromise to have unrestricted state visas . As in, the visa is only valid to live and work in that state. This would allow each state to flexibly respond to the labor needs of its economy each year. Then federal citizenship can be a restricted process, and limit migration to states that can’t utilize the extra labor.

But yeah they’ll probably come up with a massively insufficient increase and pretend it’s progress.

There isn’t a limit to filing them. There are a TON of limits to winning them though.
