Totally agree. Mitigating circumstances, absolutely. Self defense, nope. There should be some punishment. What that should be, I do not know.

Most 17 year olds charge with murder, or some variation of killing someone, aren’t charged as minors. That’s not taking a position on this specific case, it’s just a fact.

This is my fear. I’ve only had the house 2 years, exclusively rented before. I’m ‘making it’ right now, but a few years down, who knows. Sorry for you, hope it comes out okay.

Did any of you read and understand the article?

Yeah, but Israel /s

Discover is the best one I’ve ever had. No annual fee, started out with 0% interest for 18 months. I constantly get 0% balance transfer offers for 12 months, sure it costs a 3% one time fee, but it sure saves money on interest. Plus, their customer service and fraud dispute are the best imo.

Who cares? Fuck reddit. Half the content is bots anyway. So, bots stealing content to train AI to make content, which the bots will steal and repost. Circle of death for reddit. Good luck with that IPO.

You’re stating that “not guilty” doesn’t mean “innocent.” I’m adding that “not guilty” doesn’t always mean “guilty but got away with it.” Which part confused you?

Similarly, “not guilty” does not necessarily mean “guilty, but we couldn’t prove 100%”. So, a lack of conviction is not evidence that they did commit a crime, as you’re implying. This is especially relevant to rape cases.

Perhaps I wasn’t clear. Employees are clocking in early and not performing work related duties, and employees are clocking in before they even show up to work. What I meant by my last question is that employees are stealing wages. I know that won’t be popular, and it’s not at all to say that employers are worse at it, but your comment on the subject brought into mind because it’s definitely related.

I see this quite often as a manager. Shift is 8-5, hour lunch. Per policy, deviance must be approved by the supervisor. I get people all the time clocking in at 740ish and not starting work until 815ish, circle jerk around the coffee pot. In fairness, I SHOULD dock that time, but I don’t. Write up for violating established policy. I had a guy a few days ago, clocked in at 8, text me at 815 that he is running late because he can’t find his clothes (what?!). Who’s stealing wages in this scenario?

According to stats I’ve read for my state, most of wage theft is former employees, whether they quit or were terminated, not getting their final paycheck in the time frame dictated by law. I don’t really see this as wage theft, because IN MY EXPERIENCE, tracking down former employees can be difficult, even if they quit yesterday.

This NOT to say other forms of wage theft don’t happen maliciously.

Sadly, lots of people.

Perhaps they didn’t plan or execute the attack, but they certainly supported and supplied it, as the article suggests.

I, for one, did not take your comment in a bad light. I’m in my late 40s, and most of my peers that I’m comfortable with have anxiety or some other mental health issue, myself included. I’m not sure what generation classification I fall into, but it really doesn’t matter; it’s not a generation specific problem. I guess I don’t really have a point here. Maybe that it’s a problem of the times rather than DOB. Or I’d guess 15% of people don’t report.

I’m in the same boat. She’s convinced that using twice it every 6 months is worth it. I don’t even know what we pay for it these days, $14.99? Not worth making a big deal about at this point. We did cancel Hulu (better than Netflix,
imo) and paramount some months ago, so I’ll take that and deal.

I feel bad for you.

Wait, I’m out of the loop. A collection of people won a 1.5 billion dollar lawsuit over something posted on the internet the they did not like? I barely know who Alex Jones is (good thing apparently) but still.

I don’t disagree. Elected officials/governments are inefficient. But that fact is not unique to this situation. How much taxpayer dollars have been wasted on the federal UFO investigation? My own city government has spent billions (with a B) on addressing problems that don’t exist. Now, I admit, I don’t know what “people with 2 penises” refers to, so maybe you made that up to prove some point?

Physical.
