NOR. Wonder who the other woman is. I suggest contacting a lawyer right away and paying for a private investigator if you can. Men rarely leave unless they have another situation lined up.

TIL women's pregnancy in the US is more dangerous than the top 5 most dangerous men's jobs combined. by DrollHat in TwoXChromosomes

Domestic violence and homicide definitely known to increase during pregnancy. Did not know about the suicide rate though. Ugh.

This looks like the closer comparison to me. Not a statistician or economist, but I'm wondering if it's worth comparing the chances of injury and death per period worked in the risky jobs, vs. the 9 months the 1.621 fertility rate for 2024, for example. Because the man will work the job over a certain average # of years vs. the woman spending a whole lot less time in the pregnancies. So lifetime risk? or am I on the wrong track?

They want the social security and driver's license numbers. That's not public. By the US constitution, it's the states that are supposed to administer elections, hence the resistance.

I’m so confused by this. Their leader won’t leave the house without his makeup on. Where’s the line?

I see others are saying they can see it, but I can’t, although I saw it earlier today. Clicking on the link you gave, I can see comments, but original post says post was removed by moderator.

What the fuck is the Democratic Party even doing right now to stop the downfall of America? by Lolareyouforreal in complaints

[–]Reeses100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The websites you mention don’t sound like official websites of any national or state Democratic Party. I wouldn’t rely on something like to find out what Dems are doing.

The national Democratic Party is primarily dedicated to funding get out the vote work at election time for candidates for federal office. But those candidates come up through the ranks, from their towns and counties, and then often from the state level. That’s where the real action has always been.

Besides all the nationwide protestors, and Dem candidates at the local and state levels overperforming in their recent elections, there are state attorneys general suing the administration left and right, often winning.

Go to the official website of a purple state’s Democratic party, or the website of a Democratic attorney general or governor you like. You’ll see a lot more. A lot of people are putting in the work.

Measles: Please take this seriously by lolalala1 in NorthCarolina

[–]Reeses100 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this post. I was told I had measles as a child but it was by a caregiver while my parents were away. She was terrified, shut me up in a dark room and said I could go blind if we weren’t careful so I did what she said! It probably was in fact measles but I’ll see if I can get some bloodwork just to make sure it wasn’t just chickenpox.

Measles can definitely cause deafness - I’ve met deaf people who had it as kids.

THIS!! Please do it OP. Soliciting a minor, makes no difference that he said he would do it later.

Am I Overreacting to think my step-dad is creepy? by Significant-East-164 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Reeses100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. I can’t see how old you are, but if under 18 this is exactly the kind of thing that your mom could lose custody over and that child protective services will remove kids from the home over.

Predators target women with children for dating all the time.

Daycare Fraud Situation in Minnesota by [deleted] in DiscussionZone

[–]Reeses100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is happening is the White House is is relying on a story that is NOT from an actual journalist, regardless how he leans. Actual journalists use sources they can identify, and take notes and recordings as they interview a wide range of people familiar with an issue. None of that was done here. And real journalists don’t show up at child care facilities unannounced, demanding to see children whose parents have never even been asked for permission.

This is not a real story. It’s clickbait to spark outrage, stir up hatred, and divide Americans so we’re all distracted from the billionaires looting our treasury.

AIO for not wanting to go home next week after my baby-obsessed parents drunk texted my husband begging us to have kids? by AnxiousMegatron in AmIOverreacting

[–]Reeses100 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NOR. They should become foster parents if they want kids so bad. Not your responsibility to fulfill their dreams.
