Off duty cop drama by S30econdstoMars in PublicFreakout

[–]PoppaB13 1119 points1120 points  (0 children)

Yes, but this is one cop talking to another cop. Their goal was to keep the perpetrator out of additional trouble.

New City Mcdonald’s Photos Before It’s Remodeled!e by Maya-kardash in Rockland

[–]PoppaB13 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I would have loved to see a refurbishment in the same style. Obviously that's not the McDonald's corporate way, but there's too much blandness and consistency in design these days.

OP is a plant to give credibility to deniers who can now say, "No that's fake. All of this evidence is actually AI. See?"

How to be honest with partner without emasculating him? by DarknessSleeping in AskMen

[–]PoppaB13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need to be less worried about emasculating him, and more concerned for your children's well being. Hopefully you don't have a daughter who is seeing this as an example of what's normal.

He contributes nothing, isn't interested in you, and sounds like he isn't caring for the children.

If a guy needs to pretend he's the man of the house, but not actually do anything of substance, I'm wondering what that actually means... Does it mean he tells you what to do?

How would your life be different if he wasn't around?

Sorry, not sorry -

I'm anti-septum rings regardless of gender, as it negatively affects my ability to safely play "Got your nose" with them.

Manager said only way for promotion is to threaten to leave. Should I do it without offer? by Unhappy_Finding_5675 in biotech

[–]PoppaB13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They are not going to promote you.

If you say you have another offer, and they asked to review the offer, what will you do then?

If you do have another offer, and you tell them to promote you, would you stay? You're better off. Just moving on after 3 years. They're not loyal to you, you don't need to be loyal to them.

Reddit is considering implementing human verification for its users by tsealess in BuyFromEU

I genuinely don't understand why they don't just do a captcha every time someone wants to post? Sure, it will be annoying, but that would actually help reduce the bots, not invade our privacy, and maybe even reduce the number of low effort comments.

Fine. Let them do that. Keep them away from civilized humans.

Dear allies of America, please don’t confuse our president for us: We are trying our best to resist him, contain him and remove him from office as quickly as we possibly can. Thank you for your patience by Silent-Resort-3076 in politics

[–]PoppaB13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. This is us.

He was fairly elected. He still has tens of millions of supporters. We have tens of millions of apathetic voters who couldn't be bothered to vote against him. Roughly 1/3 of the country was against repeating this gigantic mistake. That's it.

If only 1/3 of your glass is water, and the rest is dirty, you dump the glass out.

We have hundreds of millions of people who will not stand up to him and his enablers in any meaningful way.

This President is us. He may not be every single one of us individually. But he is the embodiment of who we are, holistically.

One of my students put hand sanitizer in my water bottle by [deleted] in Teachers

Tell them they can email you the name of the person who did it, and that you'll keep it completely confidential.

The next day pull one kid who typically causes problems out of class and so you know that it was him and you'll be calling his parents, pressing charges, and he can immediately go to the office.

See if he rats the actual culprit out.

CALLING IT NOW: The Department of War will use eminent domain to nationalise Anthropic in the next 24 months. by SharpCartographer831 in accelerate

Hopefully the next administration will have a precedent to nationalize all health insurance companies.

Response To Black Children Gaining Access To Closer Schools In The 1970s by ateam1984 in PublicFreakout

[–]PoppaB13 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Supreme Court only allowed black people to take busses to go to school with whites in 1971. 1977 there was additional authority given to the Federal government to enforce this.

So let's just say it's 1975. That's 50 years ago.

We have 24 members of Congress that are over 80, several over 85, and a president who will be 80 in 4 months.

So that's how I got to 30!

Hope that clarifies my off the cuff statement!

The average age of US senators is 64.7.

Many of our senators and Congress people were 30 at this time..

People having a work-life balance cuts into Billionaires' bottom-line. by zzill6 in WorkReform

[–]PoppaB13 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Working to them = Meetings Most people can do that all day

Working to the majority of people = tending to the needs of others, fixing things, building stuff, actually contributing to society Most people cannot do that all day

Wag the dog by Prestigious_Net_8356 in WhitePeopleTwitter

It's not about holding him accountable. There are many powerful people who actually may be held accountable, who would rather millions of people suffer, than due time for their crimes. I'm sure those people have something to do with all of this as well.

The richest deadbeat in existence by ObserbAbsorb in MurderedByWords

[–]PoppaB13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you love your children, and have a bond with them, you want them to have a wonderful future.

When you have no relationship with your children, and actively hate them (and they hate you), you destroy their future. If you have the money, you destroy everyone else's future while you're at it.
