I’d drop Steam if that happened. There are other ways to get games and managers like Lutris make organizing them easy. I’m sure Valve knows this and with how long they’ve been successful, fucking with gamers would not make sense. Look how it’s working or for some of the bigger gaming companies recently.

The LAPD had been abusing black people forever. The OJ trial brought international attention to the situation of systemic racism in policing and the legal system. It wasn’t that black people were glad he got away with murder. Read up on the trial. The lead detective talked with a reporter on tape years earlier, and talked about beating, killing, planting evidence, and other abuses against black men specifically.

I’m not a roofer, but I’d have the vents installed the correct way. Even if it was sealed well the whole setup looks sloppy and prone to leaks. Show the boss or forman of the roofing company the pictures of the work you dont like and see if they’ll fix it. If not you could look up your local laws, the roofer may have to make this right. If they do then document the work and make sure it’s good. Either way I’d fix it, you don’t fuck with your roof.

There were a lot of positions other than RNs that are disgustingly under paid and over worked, like CNAs.

Killing a bunch of poor people in war isn’t going to save the planet. And countless animals die and have their habitats destroyed. Earth would benefit from a lot less wealthy humans.

That’s a good outlook to have. Best of luck to you.

Yeah, I’m in my 40s and just now being tested. Based on the one test I did, it seems I probably have it. If I do it will explain a lot of my struggles, but thinking about all that lost time being untreated is gonna tear me up a bit. I always heard ADHD was one of those made up illnesses and all boys are hyper, and I believed that for a long time.

Not sure that I have ADHD, but when I remember to, I put the empty bottle on the floor outside of the shower. I still forget or can’t deal with it when I get out sometimes, but it won’t sit on the floor indefinitely like it will if left in the shower.

So by “in real estate” you mean you’re a flipper and a landlord.

In the building you were going to convert into apartments, how much were you going to rent these affordable apartments for?

Crosses my mind multiple times a day. I’d probably die, but I’d be free.

I didn’t need to hear it because I lived it and already knew the reality for non white kids growing up here. I didn’t need a middle aged white man telling me how it is. And I’d rather cut someone like that out of my life for myself, my kids weren’t born then, and they aren’t going to hear that story.

Your coyote analogy is flawed. This wasn’t an immediate threat that I ignored.

I know what my job is as a parent, probably better than you do.

That’s a horrible story. I had an aquaintance tell me when I was early 20s that when I had kids they wouldn’t be as valuable as our friends kids. Why? Because our friends kids are white.

And, at least in the US, that piece of shit wasn’t wrong, but I didn’t need to hear that.
