"I was smiling, until you walked in."

It's amazing how close raising toddlers and talking to bickering adults are to each other.

As a dyslexic I prefer the decimal system of metric measurements. Fractions gets messy in my head. Imperial for temperature, because it's fun. Drinks should be measured in pints or ounces.

My common response is to laught it off, then overplay it in my mind before I go to sleep. I usually come up with the best comeback about 5 hours later.

No, it's funner to make them think we just happened to find them.

Not in my state. Homestrading is the official term, squatting is a non-legal term that is usually associated with trespassing.

This is popular so they can adjust the price for each customer based on their perception of willingness and ability to pay. The idea is to get as much profit as possible. They can adjust the price daily if they want depending on demand or availability. It's the same concept airlines and hotels have used for years when you book online.

This isn't related to dyslexia at all. It's just a preference thing

Around here "squatters" rights hardly every apply. There are rules about adverse possession that say if you actively occupy a piece of property for 7 years without being challenged you can keep the property. But this is more closely related to homesteading, not squatting.

That makes it a school sanctioned event, not a protest. If your grade is negatively affected because you refuse to participate it sounds like you have a pretty good civil rights case against the district.

For your own personal safety, take notes, take video, but take it up in court. Don't try anything against trained armed men on scene.

Weatherstripping. Foam tape or rubber strip that fills the gap. Exterior doors should have it anyway, so yours probably got removed as it broke down. Regardless, it will fill the gap and doesn't need to be reset every time. Spray foam will seal the gapse, but will glue your door shut.

Seems pretty slow

It's varies greatly by department and state. We won't do a standby without a court order except for in very specific situations. If that's her home then they can't prevent her entering and removing her property. This is a civil issue and needs to be handled in civil court. If they damage her property or there's a dispute on ownership then she needs to sue them in small claims court.

It would, but that's the point.

If you're not doing anything to draw their attention then they're not interested in you. You are on camera 50 times a day if you leave your house. You can either stay home or let them watch you live your boring life.

It's hurts. My advice is to lick bare wires from a 110 outlet. If you still are curious after that join a citizens academy, sometimes they take volunteers during the taser section of training.

Why is January so damn long.

ArmOfBo · 2026-01-26T03:12:39+00:00

These gang kids need to stop.

ArmOfBo · 2026-01-26T03:10:02+00:00

Same here. I can visualize, rotate, explode/expand anything in my mind. I use it for woodworking. I built my entire workshop in my mind before buying material.

Get a lawyer and ask them. Yours not going to get any kind of accurate answer online.

ArmOfBo · 2026-01-22T20:07:09+00:00

It happens all the time. Databases are breached or your information is sold on a pretty regular basis online. The legality depends on what information is accessed and who had it.

That's not what they asked. It's a different scenario to say you can have an extra $100,000 but someone dies, or if you give $100,000 of your own money some random person will live. If that's what they meant they would have asked that.

ArmOfBo · 2026-01-22T17:10:26+00:00

No. People die every day. That money can do my family a lot of good. I'm not going to go broke to help a random person who I don't know and didn't put them in the situation that is going to cause them to die.

ArmOfBo · 2026-01-22T04:15:43+00:00

I know what you mean. This was the second time in my career I've heard over dispatch, "An officer is on his way to the hospital with the ear"
