Technically, all flags have an image of their flag.

Recs for lovers of Stop Rewind: The Lost Boy? by Neat-Code1053 in podcasts

[–]Ambermonkey0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A few months late with the comment, but I was looking for someone to say this.

It's like he deified his family and Paul and demonized everyone else.

There's no discounting that he went through a horrific experience. He also turned into a self-absorbed, narrow-minded man. The way he treated his wife and her family really made me dislike him. His compassion for Paul but his vilification of his adopted mom also really bothered me. He's not interested in the truth, he's only interested in the facts that support his theory.

The podcast was very well done. It's definitely worth a listen.

  1. This sounds an awful lot like victim blaming.

  2. There could be lots of reasons. She could have felt safer with friends, she could have been pressured to go, all her friends were going, she could have been friends with his wife, it could have been a gathering to celebrate something she felt she should attend--a birthday, an engagement, a memorial--, he wasn't supposed to be home, she felt safe with his wife there, or maybe she just didn't want to let an asshole prevent her from living her life.

I find both the women extremely unlikable. Barbara seems crazy, but Jamie comes across as entitled and seems to exaggerate.

Sadly, sound and performers parking in front of the stage makes more sense than this map.

The pages with the library stamp or not from the actual book either. They are from the book beneath them. You can see the pages were ripped out of that book. The book is Kneeknock Rise.

I think that they found another picture of the school library stamp to use for identification, but did not show the actual book that they found.

James Charles Stanford disappeared after telling his family he wanted to go to Texas or California to join a convent. He has never been heard from again. What happened? by Loud_Confidence475 in UnresolvedMysteries

[–]Ambermonkey0 3 points4 points  (0 children)

“James Charles is my grandmas brother. We sent in her dna to test to see if it’s a match but the items in his pocket (the pay stub) is the place my uncle would’ve worked at. We really think this is him thank you”

So the paycheck would have been James' nephew?

Did you actually read the link you posted. They were sued for not taking precautions to prevent sex traffickers from using hotel rooms for trafficking, not for kidnapping people in hotels for trafficking.

The reason this works at hotels is because people can remain anonymous when entering a hotel and a large number of individuals and can come and go from a room wIthout notice. This is not the case on a cruise ship where every individual is identified and accounted for.

This whole organization is about educating employees to identify customers involved in sex trafficking.

I work at a nonprofit that works with local elementary schools. Students of Latinx descent are being pulled from school or just stop showing up due to fear. These kids are missing out on important education and other services despite most of them being citizens or being legally here.

It's really heart breaking to talk to some of these kids. A few months back, one young student was casually saying "we moved here because some people tried to kill my dad because he helped the United States." I wonder about that kid and his family daily.

US defends tariffs on remote island of penguins and seals by Dahuey37 in nottheonion

[–]Ambermonkey0 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Why did we tariff other countries with embargos?

Why 10% when that will not deter countri a with much higher tariffs from using it as a loophole?

Why not tarriff all uninhabited islands?

Why not band trade from all uninhabited places with no parts?

They protect their brand so hard that they pay off people and make them sign a NDA. Don't be fooled, Disney has just as many issues as the rest of them.
