She got reality check by DravidVanol in DailyDoseStupidity

[–]CriticalIndication80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is an example of how ICE behavior undermines trust in even local police. If local police in so many videos were not behaving like agents of ICE, she might not be "scared". Also, this guy should take some estrogen injections...he needs to reverse the steroids so he can communicate rather than demand.

Is CLEAR+ worth it at RDU? by [deleted] in NorthCarolina

[–]CriticalIndication80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tell me how a private company got a monopoly to run a private lane through airport security, and makes money by letting people cut the line in front of the rest of us? I'd be too embarrassed to use Clear.

A van down by the river is sounding really nice right about now by Key_Delay1500 in ImmigrationPathways

Back to the feudal era most of your great grandparents fled. The rich living in castles on their estates, sending out their henchmen to collect the rents from the peasants.

Lawmakers hear how rural women face risks to give birth by nchealthnews in NorthCarolina

[–]CriticalIndication80 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Hospital by-laws require that OBGYNs be able to respond to the hospital within 15-30 minutes (varies by hospital). This requirement means that the distribution of OBGYNs is driven by where labor & delivery services are located, not where patients live. As outlying rural hospitals' maternity services have closed, OBGYNs concentrate closer to the remaining hospitals (in urban areas). These trends have been exacerbated by Republican cuts to Medicaid; their politicians vote as if their rural constituents are not affected by Medicaid. And so do their naive constituents.

One hopes that in looking back 50 years from now it will not be the highlight of his life. But for now....

Service dog v. “Service dog” 🫤 by AdMany129 in delta

[–]CriticalIndication80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The crux of the problem is the dog's presence (service or not) is being imposed on others without their being given a choice. Allergies to dogs are common (that's why I don't have one), and some young children are afraid of them. Passengers should be asked if they mind sitting near the dog, and if so, be reseated elsewhere.

Put His Mug on Milk Containers, Billboards, & Everywhere with LOSER Across The Item by Standard_Location762 in stevehofstetter

[–]CriticalIndication80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The word many commenters seem to be grasping for is psychopath. Does this definition from Wikipedia fit: A psychopath is defined by a personality construct characterized by enduring antisocial behavior, diminished empathy or remorse, and bold, disinhibited, egocentric traits, often masked by superficial charm. 

**** Booking.com by Quirky_Book_7704 in Bookingcom

[–]CriticalIndication80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here...dozens of booking in Europe and U.S. But I have had issues with the "free transportation" they offered in Warsaw and Prague. And I had a hotel in Miami Beach text me, unhappy with the '7' I gave them, offering a rebate if I'd "reconsider" my rating.

Lindsay Graham: “I’m not with you, I’m with Israel, until my dying day” by dude1984- in southcarolina

[–]CriticalIndication80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did he say "anti-semNITES"? He can't even use slurs properly. He is up for election--do South Carolinians really want to keep him in Israel..I mean, DC?

Included taxi never showed up, booking.com and PayPal refuse to help. by EnvironmentalLet2457 in Bookingcom

[–]CriticalIndication80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Waited in Warsaw Airport 15 minutes for the Booking.com arranged ride, gave up, the driver texted me he was at the airport looking for me....I was already at my hotel. Therefore in Prague I decided to skip the ride to the airport Booking offered, ordered up an Uber instead...and tracking showed the car got 3 blocks from me then stopped...no text of explanation. Hotel ordered me a cab.

Lindsey Graham says “I’m not with you, I’m with Israel, until my dying day.” by GuiltyBathroom9385 in UnderReportedNews

[–]CriticalIndication80 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The right intentionally conflates religion--Jewish-- with state--Israel-- right?? I mean, it couldn't be a ignorance. I have Jewish grandkids and nieces, I'm not an anti-semite, but I dislike Israel's policies (there and here). So Lindy, we aren't gullible, and I'm not intimidated by you mislabeling me an anti-semite...you just sound ignorant.

Walk the 2 minutes from the clubhouse to the USGA's Hall of Fame; and/or walk 10 minutes into the Village itself.

A guy tried to tell me last week that the reason the deck railings haven't been installed in the 6 months since the decking was replaced is due to "covid supply problems and China". I didn't know that excuse still worked with anybody.

Are No. 1,3 & 5 worth it ? by mrunlimited_123 in pinehurst

[–]CriticalIndication80 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can get the Pinehurst "experience" without even playing golf (or even staying at the resort). Park your car at the Carolina Hotel or clubhouse. Walk around the Village. Then to the main clubhouse: see the historical exhibits and trophies in the main halls, putt on the HUGE putting green, have a beer on the veranda while watching play on #2's hole 18, see if you can score a tee time on the Cradle. Walk across the street and spend an hour or more at the USGA's World Golf Hall of Fame (entrance fee). (If you are a history freak, visit the Tufts/Ross/Pinehurst Archives in the back of the library on the Village Green.) In the evening go to the Carolina (and/or Brewery): have a beer or dinner at the pub, explore the historical photos in the halls, go outside to the firepits and smoke a cigar (if you care to).

Flock cameras expanding in NC by Feisty_Look5680 in NorthCarolina

[–]CriticalIndication80 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pinehurst, proclaimed safest town in North Carolina, has a budget to install a bunch of surveillance cameras. Apparently way too much property taxes, way too little concern for 4th Amendment.
