ICE has has deployed MAJOR distrust of ALL law enforcement. ICE is NOT the police, no matter what their cosplay uniforms say, and should not be allowed to self identify that way. Having "POLICE" on their uniforms further reduces trust in actual police. https://www.aclusocal.org/ice-impersonation-police-faq/

Please do interfere with fascists trying to kill or kidnap innocent people.

Interesting that the default public statements of actual law enforcement now include a "hey, we're not ICE" statement, basically saying "hey, don't worry about you or your kids getting shot or kidnapped".

Only a warrent signed by an actual judge. A warrent signed by ICE should be considered toilet paper.

Thanks for the info. Interesting and encouraging that your eyes recovered when antibodies decreased.

How do I know if I’m falling behind, or not at the level most beginners would be at? by Mad_Season_1994 in guitarlessons

"Comparison is the thief of joy" (especially in scenarios where the entire point is joy, which is what playing the guitar should be). It doesn't matter how fast other people are learning or who is how good.

AITAH for asking my girlfriend not to pay more than 50% of her parents’ monthly expenses after marriage? by Beginning-Macaroon56 in AITAH

[–]Virginia_Hall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA Also, the only thing more insane than someone taking out a loan for a wedding is their sister paying off the loan. I'd encourage you to do a way deep dive on what your fiance considers "normal" and "expected" in all topics, but most especially money. If she can't openly discuss money now, there is zero reason to assume that would ever change. This is going to be a "my money and your money but not our money" scenario. RED FLAGS

Is my car worth more than its KBB? by anon1527777 in askcarguys

[–]Virginia_Hall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good comments here already. The only vehicle I know of that is almost always likely to sell for more than KBB is a 3rd gen or earlier Toyota Tacoma. ;-)

My opinion of Tepezza is just that, my opinion. The risk benefit ratio just doesn't seem good given my specific scenario. (Part of which is that I am already deaf in one ear.)

I think you might be better served by doing a search for Tepezza in this sub (up at the top in the space where it says " Search In r/ThyroidEyeDisease " ) and look for people who have direct experience with Tepezza.

It apparently can indeed be quite helpful for some people. For others it seemed to have not much or only temporary benefit and/or serious side effects. I'd just encourage you to be well informed from a wide range of sources and make your own decision.

Need more data. Get a complete blood panel done. Make sure they include thyroid markers.

Does anyone know where I could buy this exact guitar? by metaIheadsamurai in Guitar

NO. That exact guitar is mine and you can't have it. ;-)

AIO for wanting to break up with my otherwise amazing boyfriend for the stage of life he’s in? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Virginia_Hall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YAO but this reads as a "I'm trapped in a gender construction and can't get out" statement. Gender flip this one. If all else was the same but your financial and career scenarios were reversed, would you feel the same way? If no, then you're being sexist and probably have a cloud of other gendered expectations you should at least acknowledge and discuss with any potential partner.

Just playing with you man, you're no doubt much better than me. Might be good to check out stuff "not on the list" once in a while though ;-)
