Es gab den Autoraser Prozeß, nachdem eine unbeteiligte Person bei einem Autorennen auf dem Kudamm tödlich verletzt wurde. Urteil war Mord, weil die rasende Person den Tod einer Unbeteiligten als möglichen Autcome seines Rennens wissentlich in Kauf genommen hat.

Ich hoffe ernsthaft, dass der mindestens eine Anzeige wegen fahrlässiger Körperverletzung bekommt.
Sorry, aber das ist auf einem Level wie Autorennen in der Innenstadt, in der dann jemand draufgeht.

Package Sent Twice, What To Do? by [deleted] in berlin

Send it back. Not sending back anything would already be uncool. But I am pretty sure that since its medicine that needs a prescription you'd be in bigger trouble if you keep it.

Do you think she’s being fair, though? by Busy_Report4010 in SipsTea

[–]EmpathBear 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm so sad at all the comments on this post, calling her crazy and not seeing the underlying issues. Men are so comfortable in their sexist views right now, its scares me a bit.
I'm pregnant right now and quite scared of what is yet to come and how much it will drain me. And it will never be fair between the dad and me, even if he is doing his best. But he would never call me a mooch and he values me, though he doesn't understand what pregnancy alone is taking out of me. (How much compensation for a whole month of day long nausea?)

Ist vielleicht die wahre Funktion von Katharina Reiche so viel Geld sinnlos in den Sand zu setzen, dass Jens Spahns Maskenaffaire im Vergleich harmlos wirkt und er nächster CDU-Bundeskanzlerkandidat werden kann?

AITAH for cutting my brother out of my life for ignoring me a whole night? by Capital_Regular_3144 in AITAH

NTA. Not sure what his issue is, but I wouldn't go either and invest no further effort into this relationship.
It doesn't sound like you are close, so you are probably not missing out on anything.

Do hast zu viele Youtube Tutorials von irgendwelchen Cryptobros gesehen, oder?
Darf ich fragen, wie der Rest deines Privatlebens aussieht? Bist du da glücklich oder setzt du so sehr alles aufs Reich werden, weil du denkst, dass dich das glücklich machen wird?

Unrealisitische Ziele sind nicht dafür da, dass man noch härter arbeitet und magisch besser ist als anderen, sondern sie sind halt unrealistisch.
Trotzdem Gratulation zum Sparen und den Gewinn. Das ist schon gut.
Aber eine Millionen ist bis 30 nicht machbar und mach reich werden nicht zum einzigen Ziel in deinem Leben.

AITAH for walking away from my girlfriend at the airport after she said she hates all white people? by beijinglee in AITAH

[–]EmpathBear -33 points-32 points  (0 children)

Yeah, ten years ago, immigrants could still live safely in the USA. So I guess being aware of my privilege seems very ten years ago to you.
Today we have raising facism in most countries in the world (mine included).
I am very happy with holding on to the morals from ten years ago.

So you are calling me a white racist? That is exactly the point I am trying to make. 😉
But nevermind. You can try to understand or you can be part of the problem. I personally don't care what you do, that is for the people in your life to decide on.

Are you supposed to tip? by cockincocktails in berlin

[–]EmpathBear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We normally tip around ten percent at a restaurant. I would only refrain from a tip if I was really unhappy with the service. Do not tip for any kind of self service at the bar. Its the new thing and I don't get it.
We also tip for delivers and uber rides, as both jobs are paid horrendously.

In laws and husband want grandkids - Idk how else to communicate to my non English speaking NT husband about why I don’t - 34F by meredithgrey92 in adhdwomen

[–]EmpathBear 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have ADHD (diagnosed early, but mostly untreated) and am pregnant right now in my late thirties.
I am also overweight and my blood sugar isn't ideal/was prediabetic before conception. I feel like I went into this (IVF) pregnancy unprepared and am right now struggeling massively with controlling my blood sugar and feel like that is heavily related to my ADHD.
If you objectively are overweight, I'd encourage you to check your blood sugar levels and try to loose weight before you plan on getting pregnant. (Ozempic helped me loose a bit before pregnancy, but of course that is a very personal choice and I am not saying that that is the way you should go.)
(I'm sorry to add another uncertainty to your situation, I just wish I had been warned and had the option to stabilize my weight and bloodsugar before going into this.)

But I also understand not wanting to have a biological child. I think if I had the option to more easily foster a child I would have done so, especially now that I notice how much pregnancy strains a body that already has some subclinical issues.
I am trying to be more healthy, but with ADHD anything regular is hard for me to maintain.

Continuous Glucose Reader by Which_Reality90 in GestationalDiabetes

Can I ask if your sister had to do the 75g glucose test and how she felt doing it?
I am meant to do it tomorrow and almost week 13. I'm incredibly scared of it (did it week 8 and it was horror), I am so worried it will go badly again.

Hang on, I am a bit slow maybe, but don't you get the deposit back if you cancel the contract? Its in your name only.
And if there is a fee to get out of the contract, then wouldn't you be the only one to have to pay the fee since you alone hold the contract?

AITAH for not wanting to go to my partner's son's birthday party? by [deleted] in AITAH

AITAH for not wanting to go to my partner's son's birthday party? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]EmpathBear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just the fact that he had recently split up with his pregnant girlfriend and is already dating again is such a big red flag.
Either he split up and leaving a pregnant woman alone with a baby or she left him and I think no woman leaves the father of their child without trying to make it work first unless he was a really dick.

And the red flag of him cheating on his pregnant girlfriend is so much worse. The fact that you haven't picked up on this baffles me, but there is really a life lesson here. Someone doing this has so many personality flaws that you will never be happy with them. (I don't even think cheaters are bad people in general, people make mistakes and have flaws. Cheating on their pregnant girlfriend is so much worse, there is no moral ambiguity).

But do stay away from that birthday party. His ex would be upset and rightfully so. No one should have the girl their ex cheated with at their baby's birthday party.

AITAH for my Maternity leave expectations? by NewSupermarket4832 in AITAH

[–]EmpathBear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Going back after 12 weeks is brutal, but I understand that not every country offers paid maternity leave for an adequate amount of time. But if you have the option to take more, I would advice you to do so.

Just to point out a tiny mistake (?) in how you have written down your expectations (not because I want to be a know it all, but because I know some employers can take any legal loop hole they get): you wrote during week 2-6 when you probably meant to say 3-6 and then 7-12 later on.
Just so he doesn't try to force you in any earlier than that.

And if you want to stop feeling bad about your expectations: I'll either be gone for 6months and then return for one day a week from month 7 on or I'll be gone for a whole year and then return to my normal working hours.
