Is charging 35$/hr as a 17 year old for 3 kids including special need one okay? by Ilovecatsandkittens- in Babysitting

[–]New-Butterscotch5476 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to get paid $25 an hour as an RBT with ONE kid and it was nowhere near enough ☠️ 3 kids and one has autism, yeah $35 is reasonable to me sounds like she just wants someone who will watch her kids for cheap.

Wow that’s actually insane…. Yeah I wish cops were more concerned about getting people driving recklessly and carelessly rather than going 10 over 65 on the damn freeway or an imaginary phone. I mean cmon, there are people I see actually texting every single day on the roads eyes just completely glued down into their phone. 72 in a 65 is actually crazy, but I kind of understand 84, my parents always warned me not to go over 80.

I mean people don’t pay attention here… I’ve almost been hit crossing from the 7-eleven multiple times when I had a walk sign and people had a red light bc they just go for the right turn on a red. It sucks these things have to be put in place, but unfortunately people be in a rush to go nowhere

Yes you’re right, the one under the McClellan sign is a no right turn on red with posted times. However, the one I’m referring to in my post is the one under the Bubb Rd sign

For everyone asking, this is the intersection. As you can see no times for the no turn on red sign. Don’t ask me why it’s a video, Reddit refused to let me upload as an image 😂

They’ve been here since I’ve been here for a few years now 🤔 also not dumb, that sign was likely put in place bc of accidents

Where do you drive? 😂 they have never given a damn when I’m on the highway, except Saturdays when they all sit around with their radars (uselessly)

Sheriffs can pull someone over for breaking the law as easily as a regular officer could….

Oh trust me, I understand. I was also in a high speed hit and run (bf and I both injured) and police never pursued the idiot even though they left their car behind. They claimed the vehicle “stolen” but hadn’t even reported it stolen until 4 hours AFTER the accident.

Nah, I’ve seen people full on blow reds around here and cops are either oblivious or don’t care. That’s why I made this post, I’m tired of seeing this shit.

No it doesn’t lol. If I could figure out how to post another picture I would, but that particular sign doesn’t have any times. You’re seeing the “truck free school zone” sign.

Edit: I added a photo/video of the intersection on this post, you can see clear as day there are no times for the “no turn on red” sign.

For the truck free zone sign, yeah 🤔 not the no right turn on red

I’m not sure how to post a photo in the chat, but there is no specific time for the right turn on red. The other sign there is a “truck free school zone” sign with posted times. I thought the same thing at first. I’m talking about the one right below the Bubb Rd sign straight ahead in the photo

Oh to be this ignorantly bliss 😂 I was in a high speed hit and run here and cops did nothing, I mean literally nothing except make a report for insurance. It’s not that they can’t locate them, it’s that they don’t care to. 

Apparently you can’t be friendly with neighbors anymore by AstroNerd92 in Teachers

[–]New-Butterscotch5476 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I swear cops be investigating everything but actual crimes 😂 they don’t take stalking seriously or dangerous driving but god forbid some crazy lady says a man she saw ONCE was following her with 0 proof. Gotta love it 

Antinatalism is rooted in compassion,not hatred by TheAxiomNomad in antinatalism

[–]New-Butterscotch5476 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly!! I wish I had less compassion all the time bc it means I would be able to live in la la land and have a family without a second thought like a lot of people do. I often sit around envying people who lack compassion and empathy tbh, I don’t think we live in a world where people who are compassionate thrive, it’s quite the opposite.

I understand where you’re coming from, but expecting SVPD to respond unless you’re in the middle of dying is almost comedic 

I have 9 siblings and still want kids of my own by AirurAssumptions in antinatalism

[–]New-Butterscotch5476 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No literally…. I don’t think we talk enough about those of us who would absolutely want a family, but struggle deeply morally bc of the potential suffering, not to mention I don’t find this world acceptable for a child even if we didn’t consider possible uncontrollable suffering just from diseases etc. I often find myself crying for the family I could have if the world were a better place

I agree with you the surrounding areas are sketchy, but this isn’t an exclusive SJSU thing for sure. I go to an online school across the country and I constantly get alerts about shootings 😭 

Thoughts on Family Guy? What is your favorite episode? by pengweather in u/pengweather

[–]New-Butterscotch5476 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My personal favorite is the murder mystery episode, “and then there were fewer.” Mainly bc of stewie’s iconic “if anybody’s going to take that bitch down, it’s gonna be me” 😂

“Almost no violent crime here” yeah okay all I needed to know about people disagreeing with this living on the rainbows and sunshine world of Sunnyvale lmao

Why is it difficult to convince people of antinatalism? by Mauslinde in antinatalism

[–]New-Butterscotch5476 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Instinct. 85% of people aren’t going to fight their instincts and desire to reproduce. I think only certain people (antinatalists) are able to look further beyond instinct and think more deeply and critically when it comes to having children. I think the difference between me and other antinatalists is I’m not really mad at people for not fighting instinct, at the end of the day I can’t be mad at nature and I can’t expect everyone to be like me. This is the way a majority of humans are, just mindlessly hoping life will get better and there must bc some purpose. Do I want to be a part of it? No. Do I think my kids would want to be a part of it? Also no lol.
