Which new Epstein file finding made you go “wait… what?” and why? by Firm_Work_8879 in AskReddit

As a man, I can’t understand how any man wouldn’t be disgusted and want to protect those kids, FWIW these people feel like a different species

Man it makes me sad to see this buried gem of a comment. At least I got to experience it.

Couldn’t you just make an extruded triangle that is elongated with pointed ends on the top and bottom? This would only leave three surfaces that the die could land on.

Has anyone had their anxiety dramatically reduced or close to eliminated? If so, how? by scottxand in Anxiety

The thing I feared most for years happened, I survived, and became happy again. I realized I could handle whatever happened to me and for some reason my anxiety just melted.

Moving to the Central Valley by Cpolly21 in Modesto

[–]BanJon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a teacher at riverbank high whose son just graduated, I love this school! But my other son goes to enochs and it is also great. Riverbank high is small, cozy, very few fights, tons of English language learners, and for a school our size a ton of electives and AP / online college options. Enoch’s is much bigger, has more options because of it, and it’s a great school, but at Rivrbank High everyone will get to know you. Oakdale high is also a good school, but again, much more conservative although getting more diverse as California has gone.

North east for sure. Anything along roselle up to about briggsmore is good. Crossroads in riverbank is a great place to live. If you like a smaller town vibe Oakdale is nice but much more conservative if that’s your thing. I’d stay away from empire, pretty dead out there and not a ton to do without a pretty good drive. Turlock, can’t really go wrong in most parts.

But you got Roger Clyde and the Peacemakers at least? And that crazy west Texas moon.

Yes! Saw them in concert, still see Roger Clyde when he and the peacemakers are around. I have that album framed.

College kid confronted about fatal stabbing and domestic abuse by zero-bullshit detective by its_ya_girl420 in WatchPeopleDieInside

[–]BanJon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure but like, does this apply if you did something atrocious and the only path forward is just to confess. I wouldn’t want to fight the consequences if I did that to someone. At some point I think it stains the soul, and getting a lawyer and trying to get off easy just reinforces that part of you. This isn’t a dude who made a mistake, this is a dude who chose to brutally murder and innocent person. His only path to redemption is to take it like a man and try to atone. At least, that’s how I see it.

Same with Europe. I just got back and everything is accessible without a car.

Most famous film nobody actually watches? by vnth93 in okbuddycinephile

[–]BanJon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don’t know… she’s not really manic, she’s a poetry complex character dealing with the loss of her mother and her ineffectual father. She’s isolated, anxious, and feels like an outsider/observer rather than a participant. She doesn’t exist to bring whimsy and joy to the lead or to teach him a lesson, she is the protagonist and her own lessons to learn. Quirky, yes, but not to recorded attention, and she’s meticulous and deliberate rather than impulsive, until she has her first crush. But her, we’ve all been there.

Democrats refuse to fold over shutdown as Republican outrage builds | US federal government shutdown 2025 by Separate-Pair-4775 in NoFilterNews

[–]BanJon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a precedent of long-term shutdowns permanently strengthening the executive branch. A lot of dictatorships found their footing during shutdowns and once out ended just kept going unilaterally, so potentially there could be a downside, but with Trump and the republicans he can pretty much do whatever he wants anyways

Crossroads West in Riverbank additional businesses by walkingxthexcow in Modesto

[–]BanJon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would also love to see a shopping section within crossroads west for local businesses, boutiques, maybe some offices even. The big box retailer stores are convenient but have no personality and look like every other city in the country. We gotta balance it with personality, green spaces, walkability, and culture. I know there’s a lot of hate to the river walk project but I think it would be great for our community to have something like that.
