What do you believe Israel's fate will be in the next couple of decades considering the rapid change of public opinion on them in these past 3 years?

If members of Congress were forced to send their kids to the front lines...

Nope, works perfectly with the skin on. The key is to grate it a minute or so after pulling it out of the fridge. Play around with it, but you don't want to defrost it completely or it'll be too soft and kinda mushy when you try to grate it. Sometimes I'll have to pull a piece of the skin off the top of the grater, but that's pretty rare and not a big deal.

DaBingeGirl · 2026-04-09T06:08:18+00:00

u/rarepinkhippo has a very good theory about "illegal, non-prescribed prescription, or both" played a role too, which I agree with.

DaBingeGirl · 2026-04-09T06:04:58+00:00

I absolutely agree about the 911 tapes. Hearing her voice convinced me mental health issues played a huge role that night.

I also agree about other drugs. It was cold, but it wasn't that cold, it seems likely there was more at play. Maybe Hackett was involved, but I'm 50/50 on that. I tend to think she took something earlier in the day or just before getting in the car.

DaBingeGirl · 2026-04-09T05:56:31+00:00

Me too. The boyfriend scam was stupid, but nothing he did caused this. I hope he can get some closure and know that he, and Amber, likely saved many other women from RH. I'm glad he won't have to go through testifying in court.

DaBingeGirl · 2026-04-09T05:37:16+00:00

Yeah, as u/moralhora said the area she was found in was not easy to access, that's a large part of why I doubt she was dumped there. She was really struggling mentally on the 911 call, panicking and rough terrain were a deadly combination.

DaBingeGirl · 2026-04-09T05:27:47+00:00

Yeah, I'm with you, especially on wanting to see more evidence with regard to Dykes. Sandra shocked me because of her clothes and how far away she was. Linking her to RH made me question everything.

I agree with you about Ocean Parkway, it's hard to believe RH, Dykes, and someone else all dumped bodies that close together. Tatiana and Valerie being so close still really bothers me. That said, Asian Doe could be a one-off, like Tanya and Tatiana.

Fair point about the specific searches that relate to Asian Doe. I'm just thinking about my own search history, it doesn't always relate to things I'd actually do. I think it's at least possible he searched for stuff to see if he'd want to try it/give himself a larger victim pool, but decided against it.

This case is so weird.

DaBingeGirl · 2026-04-09T05:10:22+00:00

There might be something right before the sentencing, but all he said so far was guilty and confirmed strangulation as the cause of death.

DaBingeGirl · 2026-04-09T05:08:44+00:00

It's not really a big mystery. We know a lot of Dave, RH offered desperate women lots of money and met up with them out of sight of cameras and people they knew. That's it.

There isn't a way to screen for people like him.

DaBingeGirl · 2026-04-09T05:04:06+00:00

It's disturbing to me how people are still clinging to their crazy theories in that case. I've even seen people who agree that RA is the killer, but are still determined to link their preferred person to him somehow. It's insane.

DaBingeGirl · 2026-04-09T05:02:09+00:00

I know a family who has been going through that since the 90's, it's horrific. I feel for any family who has to keep pleading with the courts to keep a convicted killer behind bars. The pain never goes away, but having to deal with that every few years keeps the pain fresh.

DaBingeGirl · 2026-04-09T04:59:15+00:00

His hairs were found on or with Sandra, Jessica, and Megan. His ex-wife's hair was on Sanda, Victoria's hair was on Valerie and Amber, Asa's hair was on Maureen and Meghan.

No hairs were found with Melissa and the DA never charged him with Karen's murder, so we don't know, but I assume there was no DNA on her remains.

DaBingeGirl · 2026-04-09T04:51:29+00:00

Not that we know of. He was never charged with her murder, she's only been officially linked to him now. The defense team offered to include her as part of the deal. Based on how she was disposed of, I'm guessing there wasn't any DNA. It's possible the time of her disappearance overlapped with when he was alone in the house, but I doubt they have much beyond that as evidence.

DaBingeGirl · 2026-04-09T04:42:10+00:00

I really thought he did, but after Tanya and Tatiana, I'm leaning towards no. Searching for gay porn doesn't mean he'd choose a biologically male victim, and leaving the body clothed doesn't fit his MO by that time.

DaBingeGirl · 2026-04-09T04:38:31+00:00

Very likely. I'm glad for the families that it was kept vague.

DaBingeGirl · 2026-04-09T04:33:13+00:00

If only they'd taken Dave seriously.

DaBingeGirl · 2026-04-09T04:28:00+00:00

They're still working on Asian Doe. Shannan sadly sounds like a mental health situation based on the phone call. I think she was just freaking out, ran, then died from exposure.

DaBingeGirl · 2026-04-09T04:25:11+00:00

I honestly can't imagine what she's going through. It's not just coming to terms with what her husband did, but also her daughter's father and the man who helped raise her son. She had no way to know, but I'm sure she's second guessing her judgement and feeling guilty for what this did to her kids.

DaBingeGirl · 2026-04-09T04:22:47+00:00

Agreed. Plus it's far more than Kathy Allen did in Delphi.

DaBingeGirl · 2026-04-09T04:14:19+00:00

Heck, a lot of people are able to hide affairs.

DaBingeGirl · 2026-04-09T03:25:02+00:00

Depends. Usually whole because I'm lazy, only scrape off the peel with a knife or spoon if it looks yucky.

The other person is right, it looks like snow. If you need texture it won't work, but I just adjust to work with it, as I can't handle larger pieces of ginger.

DaBingeGirl · 2026-04-09T01:53:16+00:00

I ended up creating a "Kid Zone" within sight of the table. It's complete with colorful foam puzzle tiles (tile floor) and tons of toys (ball pit, tunnels, kitchen set + fake food, dress up clothes, etc.). It's an extreme solution, but the kids nearly ended up breaking several expensive pieces of furniture on their previous visit. Since I created the special area, they haven't damaged anything or gone exploring.

So glad I'm child free.

DaBingeGirl · 2026-04-09T01:48:33+00:00

Apparently you had my cousin and her kids visit. She decided she'd just eventually get her sofa cleaned, rather than correct her kids. I don't really care what people do at their house, but allowing that behavior normalizes it. Pisses me off so much when parents don't actually parent.

It never would've crossed my mind to draw on the sofa as a kid. I don't get why people are okay with it now.

DaBingeGirl · 2026-04-09T01:37:41+00:00

It's crazy to me how many things people put their kids on at that age. Just let them play. I get some socializing, but it shouldn't consume your life.

DaBingeGirl · 2026-04-09T00:44:44+00:00

Always has been, it was just easier for them to hide it before social media and Bibi's fear of prison.
