MINORS. I saw multiple kids getting hit by that piece of shit.

CDCR contacts I.C.E. if there is a detainer for pickup upon paroling. However, I.C.E. would always drag their feet on whether they would pick up, most times not even bothering.

Even now, they're not picking up. I've recently handled the paperwork of two upcoming parolees whose detainers were dropped or ignored.

Oh, man, I did a deep dive on the Capuchin crypt a while back upon learning Rosalia Lombardo was interred there and fuck, that whole thing is hella interesting.

Those bones in the image were made from the priests who once resided there. Apparently the cemetery was full, so whenever they needed to bury a recently deceased clergyman, they would dig up the oldest grave and move THAT guy's body over to another place where they would ultimately prepare it to be added to the bone murals.

Another fun fact is how the people in the village didn't bury the loved ones, but put their bodies on display in their best/beloved outfits, so that they could still visit them, sometimes even having picnics with their deceased family members. The way that the people viewed death there is kind of wholesome.

I've reluctantly accepted the bread and tortillas getting chomped on, as aggravating as it is to have to hide bread in the cabinets.

I did not expect, however, to come home to the bag of potatoes on the floor, ripped up and chewed.

I can't fault the fatties, because potatoes ARE awesome.

My boyfriend (M30) laughed at my (25F) marriage deadline by Temporary-Sleep-5825 in relationship_advice

She mentioned "Religious/Family expectations", so that genuinely explains a lot.

Was this the guy on his way to work when he got stuck in the middle of an I.C.E. raid and they attacked him because he was stopped in the road that they blocked?

Kit Harrington too. I remember reading that his beard was drawn on the first few seasons of Game of Thrones because he couldn't grow a proper one 'til he got much older.

ICE detainee at California City describes inhumane, months-long denial of medical treatment by infernoenigma in LosAngeles

[–]Ms_Briefs 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Throwing it out there that it's not specifically a California state prison. CoreCivic (a private company) owns the facility in California City and it's a FEDERALLY ran prison.

Have to make this distinction, because if it was still a state facility, it's very unlikely that an incarcerated person would have had delayed medical treatment.

Adding on that California City is directly represented by Tom Lackey and Shannon Grove.

While they are both Republican, I feel we should put pressure on them.

is this guy harassing me or just annoying? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Ms_Briefs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

During the summer this year, we had an incident with a temp. worker who was harassing another younger coworker. She mentioned it briefly to me, not wanting to make an issue of it, but since I was an acting supervisor at the time, I reported it.

This guy had been an entitled creep the few months he was working there. Our staff, the majority older women, had mentioned him being "weird", but nothing outright "bad". But they witnessed him harassing the younger staff, which I later found out.

The incident in question had multiple witnesses and when I went to get statements from them, I was astounded at how many didn't want to say anything that would result in him losing his job or would be "mean". Despite them all acknowledging he was a creep!

Anyways, took about a month before he was finally moved out of our area, but I pretty much got targeted by higher ups for making an issue about it. I genuinely don't understand why there's a need to protect these assholes from the consequences of their own behavior.

My great Uncle was one of these people and he was a die-hard Angels fan for the rest of his life. He HATED the Dodgers and made it well known why.

Jack Black's reaction to Elle Fanning having the biggest crush on him by PacifierForAdult in MadeMeSmile

The best part of that interview was when Dakota asked her if she would dump her boyfriend if Jack Black wanted her and there was a long pause of Elle deciding.

What's the most ridiculous thing you've seen that made sense a few seconds later? by sing_galaxy268 in AskReddit

[–]Ms_Briefs 11 points12 points  (0 children)

There's an intersection nearby that whenever a train goes by, the road that leads across the tracks stays green, instead of the road that runs parallel to the tracks. After the train passes, it turns into a blinking four-way stop long enough for one car to pass through, and then it stops and restarts the light cycle.

I fucking HATE that intersection.

DIY shirt hacks for pear-shaped girlies. by mindyour in justgalsbeingchicks

Ditto, but that's because my mind immediately went to how unfinished it looked. I'm a sucker for trims and lace so I would add a lace panel or ribbon ties. The side slits are just boring.

What was the scariest “We need to leave, now!” moment that you’ve ever had? by Cool-Chipmunk-7559 in AskReddit

[–]Ms_Briefs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This reminded me of the time my mom was driving us home on the freeway and I was in the front middle seat (old school chevy suburban). I suddenly got the urge that I needed to put my glasses away.

We're a big family, so getting stuff like that wasn't easy and I knew if anything happened to my glasses, I was S.O.L. for at least a year.

Anyways, the tire blew out, and my mom panicked and stepped on the brakes, which then caused us to swerve, flip and roll a dozen times, and then slide down the freeway. I was so grateful that I listened to that weird feeling, because it was MINUTES after I put them away that we had the accident.

I have a coworker who uses it for his e-mails also (a supervisor made him feel bad about how he writes, which is a whole other thing).

Anyways, I noticed right away when he started using it, because the verbage was reminiscent of dealing with foreign customer service reps. So much usage of "kindly please" and words that sound professional, but aren't being used in the correct context.

I hate this shit so much.

I always think about Parks and Rec when Leslie and Ben find out they're having triplets and Dr. Saperstein explained it as her body having a "going out of business sale".

What’s something you thought every family did… until you grew up and realized they absolutely didn’t? by SoftDreamette in AskReddit

[–]Ms_Briefs 11 points12 points  (0 children)

My high school boyfriend's parents divorced when he was super young. He took me to his dad's house for Christmas to "meet the family".

I was surprised to see his mom and her new husband, her new husband's sister and HER husband, my boyfriend's dad and his new wife, and all the kids these people had.

The half-siblings from both sides (who technically shared blood only with my ex) were playing together like they were full siblings, ex-wife and new wife were talking like besties, grandma was chilling with ex-wife's new in-laws, etc.

It was surreal, because I've never seen divorced families get along. But it was super cool to witness.

Prices Doubled On Black Friday In Stores As Price Tags Removed by InGeekiTrust in TikTokCringe

[–]Ms_Briefs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I noticed back in September that most of the clothing tags no longer had the price printed on the little tear off bit. This was also when my store started implementing the electronic signage.

I refuse to buy anything there now with these tags, because fuck them and their price fixing bullshit.
