  • Bad, but I found this. It may be a translation issue, but it seems significantly less spiteful and more regretful than I how read your description.

    I do get it, it’s like getting a limb caught in a bear trap and not chewing through it. Sure, we’d all hope we would do it and know that it’s the best chance of survival, but it’s not easy to do. I’m not confused, just sad, worried and tbh, a little angry at the democrats. They could have made this an easier choice for us, and they might have won. I’m also angry at people who didn’t vote for Harris, but I really can’t understand how difficult it is for people like Abed Hammoud, so I’m going to save my anger more for the people who voted for trump










  • Since then, she said, she has heard from “thousands and thousands” of other parents who had become disillusioned with what she described as “the fascism of the Democratic party,” such as “mandatory vaccines or maybe medication down the road.” she said. “We already have mandatory chemotherapy that kids have to get—you can get your kid taken away from you if you don’t give them chemo if they have cancer.”

    Regarding the vaccines: they’re mandatory for spending time with other children, which is reasonable, as it’s the only way to protect children with suppressed immune systems from communicable diseases while in places like schools.

    Regarding the mandatory chemo: Christian scientists ruined it for you, I’m sorry. We can’t trust parents to act in the best interests of the children in their care, because a bunch of parents refused things like tetanus shots and antibiotics, and children died for no good reason. A possible solution would be to have the patient’s doctors decide with input from the parent (s) and patient themselves, but I suspect that would go over even worse.




  • I’ve got super straight, fine hair (1A), and it sounds like you might, too. If you’re having trouble keeping your hair in a ponytail, can I ask if you’re brushing it thoroughly? Just because mine holds much better if I finger comb it and use natural bristle brush to smooth it where necessary. That only works for me after shampooing when it’s shorter than my shoulders/I use conditioner or a similar product, though.



  • They can legally also do it while working, though. It’s their car and they’re not an employee, so Uber certainly can’t tell them not to. I guess I don’t really see what you’re trying to say: do you want him to not be allowed to pray while working, or do you just think it’s a dick move? If the latter, do you think it’s reasonable to pepper spray him for it?

    I’ve got misophonia, and sometimes people make sounds that make me super uncomfortable. In an Uber- style situation, I tend to just politely ask them not to (unless it’s a breathing sound, in which case I just try to distract myself)), which has never not worked.
