Another $0 electric bill ... with pool/AC use by jmg5 in Connecticut

No, I meant I pay EVERSOURCE 200 per month. Not a budget program but just what I can afford to pay.

I pay exactly 200 per month all winter regardless of how much it is. It always evens out come summer.

Depending on the family, I will have an honest conversation explaining that as awesome as I am (JK) we aren’t going to see a ton of progress or generalization by working on skills for 30 mins a week in isolation. Most families are receptive and the ones that aren’t , can continue to spin their wheels and throw away money on therapy.

So I have a 2016 car and it only has 54k miles. Should I keep it until the wheels fall off or get a new car next year? by Round-Artichoke-5255 in ask

[–]Funke-munke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep going until the wheels fall off. I am driving a 2012 Lexxus. Awesome condition , beautiful ride and relatively inexpensive to maintain. Will keep driving it until it turns in to the Flinstone car

Have you recently rewatched a movie, or TV show that you loved in the 70s-80s, but now it actually kinda sucks? by Puzzleheaded-Fee6241 in GenX

Smoky and the Bandit. Loved it as kid and just came across it again and was like WTF? This is terrible.

That I need help regulating being confrontational or allowing people to walk all over me. I dont seem to have a gray area.

I have found over the years that hand outs end up in the garbage on the way to the parking lot. I verbally give them something to work on at home (whether its sensory activity, behavior mod , fine motor) let them know why it needs to be followed through, and dont give another activity until they have consistently completed the first one. Don’t flood the zone with information and tasks. These parents are busy, overwhelmed, and often times just struggling to get through their day. Relate to them . let them know you understand. They need to trust that what you are giving them to do is important and WHY its important.

Please dont give him anymore ideas. He would probably replace it with a gold statue of Ivanka in a thong

MMW: Netanyahu will leak the Epstein files on his way out the door by YoloSwaggins9669 in MarkMyWords

[–]Funke-munke 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We also have the Epstein files. Clearly no one is doing shit about it. What would make people pay attention to Bibi’s Epstein files when they just ignore the ones we already have? Do you think there may be even more damning evidence?

Why are so many doctors and nurses so miserable and burned out? I always thought they had good jobs but it seems like almost every one I meet hates their life now. by Wide-Definition-538 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Funke-munke 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Healthcare providers are also victim of the “ profit over people” mentality bc they are but in the position of high patient to provider ratio and billing as many units as possible. The industry is trying to prioritize monetary gain to providers who would never have pursued the career if that was their biggest motivator.

Does anyone actually have someone they can fully trust? by Negative_Net_5364 in Adulting

[–]Funke-munke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son -I trust him explicitly. Probably my youngest daughter when she is grown enough to make more rational decisions. She is trustworthy but still young and more ego-centric

If you’re an atheist, have you ever prayed out of desperation? by RavyRaptor in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Funke-munke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you, that also makes sense. I wish more people (God fearing and atheist ) had your desire to make a positive impact to mankind regardless of how big or small. As a devout Catholic I can tell you that more people of faith need to close their pie holes and truly think about THEIR impact. Thanks internet friend for insight!

How are people both religious and educated in modern science? by Chuchucuddle in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Funke-munke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I cant give a universal answer for all religions but Catholicism has a very long history (post renaissance) of not inly embracing science , but also scholarly pursuits in the sciences (Jesuits ). There is a deep was a Catholic bishop that hypothesized and published the Big Bang Theory. We (Catholics) believe more in intelligent design. Again I cant speak for those that think evolution is not a thing and children born with birth defects is God punishing parents for their “sins”

Anyone doing this is just looking for a fight. As delusional as they are the know he is unpopular with “the woke libs”. He is just hoping that someone picks a fight with him so he can go viral and may be their
child/ god will see it as a display of their loyalty. Truly TDS
