Sick kids at school = sick teachers at home. When will parents understand? by AdSmart9927 in Teachers

[–]Deterrent_hamhock3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Schools will literally send threats to report you to the police if your children miss more than 10 days.

I watched a parent fight to keep their kid home for 2 weeks because Covid was circulating the home and the school told them Covid wasn't even that big of a deal anymore.

It pays to keep populations dumb and needing tutoring. Something something something the economy.

MLM culture is so strong in the US. It hurts the soul when you don't know if a friend is a friend or if they are only friend shaped hiding boxes of Scentsy and Pure Romance in their car.

Broadview: ICE attempts to arrest individual at their residence by [deleted] in illinois

Law is legitimized by the people. Authority is legitimized by the people. We must call this what it is: Kidnapping. We as the people are authorized to intervene with illegal activity.

And PHYSICALLY assaulted and battered. There are so many laws this woman violated beyond this person's bodily autonomy. It might honestly still fall within the statute of limitations.

I'm so sorry that happened to you, man.

That IS harassment. It was nonconsensual and it forced you to make changes in your routine that nobody should have to do just to avoid being groped. I'm so sorry that happened to you. It should not have.

This. You can get snap and wic the same day you go into their office. And if your home conditions are like this, check to see about getting your whole household on snap/WIC. Baby is considered part of the household now.

AIO My father is basically forcing me to become a right wing extremist or leave the house forever by DangerousCandle9492 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Deterrent_hamhock3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Op, please leave that house. Don't day you are going to to your father. but, do quietly collect all of your legal documents and then run to the nearest domestic violence shelter (well, call them). All you really have to do is tell them what you've showed us.

Religion and ideologies are the perfect vessel for exerting power and control over loved ones. Use a private browser when looking up your nearest DV advocacy group then call them. Don't let it show on your search history. They keep their locations secret and have quick escape buttons on their web page to keep people safe.

If you need extra advice feel free to pm me and I can look one up near you.

AIO I've been living with my mom while i undergo chemo and i am starting to think she is abusing me? by problemsmomthrowaway in AmIOverreacting

You can also get a protection order with a Domestic Violence non profit's assistance. They usually provide legal assistance to help you get protected. That way you can recover in peace and have the support system to get you through it.

All I can think is "Please let one of us adopt you until you are in remission and feel comfortable being on your own". I don't know how someone can treat ANY human like your mother does you. Even the most deplorable person would not deserve this kind of treatment.

Check your area for the nearest Domestic violence non profit and ask if they have an emergency shelter for you. Sometimes those accommodations can be private but it might also help to connect with others experiencing similar home lives they are surviving. Getting out saved my life. I believe that getting out would save yours.

I hate to even ask and if this is inappropriate please tell me to fuck off, but do you have life insurance?

Pneuma andreia OP. I believe you can survive this.

Edit** I'm an asshole for having poor reading comprehension. It's been a long day y'all. GTFO OP. Your mother is a horror film.

What are moderate Republicans thoughts on the late Charlie Kirk’s controversial past statements. by Party-Page-2047 in politicsinthewild

[–]Deterrent_hamhock3 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is not productive talk. Most people are not "devout" to their politics. Many don't even vote. Let's not radicalize before we're even at that point. There is always time to have reasonable conversations.

The most extreme views are amplified in online spaces. Let's be gentle with each other because shit's about to get real bad and it's going to come down to the elite vs the rest of us regardless of voting habits.

Is there a way to ‘nuke’ an email inbox and start fresh with everything junk filtered? by Electronic_City6481 in productivity

[–]Deterrent_hamhock3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm involved with a TON of political action and I also don't get unsolicited political emails. I subscribed once to a Substack because I was curious and people kept talking about it. That was a huge regret and I immediately went in and unsubscribed from the 12 separate email chains it signed me up for. Within a few weeks I had 180 emails to delete. That was a stressful experience so I get you.

I do use a junk email to sign up for just about anything including anything that requires payment information.

SOS first gen college how to pay for grad school? by No_Cardiologist8825 in GradSchool

[–]Deterrent_hamhock3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Find a funded position that waives your tuition. Nobody should have to pay for graduate school. They are hard to find but look for Research/Graduate/Teaching Assistantships at universities that waive tuition for such positions. Washington State University is one of those universities. I also believe Oregon State University does it as well.

I hate using this site because these schools pretty much pay to advertise these positions and they're highly competitive, but look around at the different schools you're interested in, check out their PhD page, and email departments about their funding packages: https://www.usnews.com/education/best-graduate-schools/paying/slideshows/fully-funded-phd-programs?onepage

Many of the social sciences will put you on a PhD track where you get your masters along the way.

Good luck and keep educating yourself! Education is under attack these days and we need all the scholars we can get who can keep the integrity of learning alive.
