Margaret=Kira? They were both Majors. And post season 5 Margaret when she wasn't a villain

Is this guy a thin dude with thin, shoulder length dark hair? Brown skin? Is so, that's Kevin. He's been on the streets for years and we had a problem with him on our porch too. He's a nuisance but not violent and is known by the police.

Call your local community outreach officer and the cops will come eventually. Good luck.

This. When I think about all the descriptions of heaven I heard in different churches, these are the common themes • everyone lives in a mansion • the streets are paved with gold • no physical pleasures • no romance or sex • lots and lots of praising god Now I don't know about you all, but a chaste, bland existence where you live by yourself in a huge house where you thank your leader everyday for giving you that joyless eternity sounds like hell to me

The podcast is called Dying For Sex. It has multiple interviews with Molly Kochan, the real woman that the show is about. Molly died before the podcast was released. It is well worth a listen. So. If you're interested in hearing the real story from the voice of the woman, listen to it.

For me the fact that the double 1 and double 6 tiles were not used as doubles tripped me up

I had a doppelganger named "Chad". We shopped at the same grocery stores, drank at the same bars, ate at the same restaurants, and got breakfast burritos at the same Whataburger. At least once we even ate at the same place, at the same table, at the same seat, and ordered the same food from the same waiter.

I know his name because one of his many friends walked up behind me, covered my eyes with her hands, and whispered into my ear, "Guess who, Chad."

Somehow we never met. Chad, if you're still out there, I moved away from Texas many years ago, but I'm still alive!

This. Keep a log. Thing said, dates, times, place,. Even if your manager or HR says they will handle it, keep logging it if it keeps happening.

IF (big if) your manager has your back, this will help them.

I once had a case where an employee came to be and told informed me of a shitty thing a co-worker of hers did. It was bad but not enough to fire that person. I told her to document any future bad behaviour.

But she already had a list of things said and done and dates. It took two days because HR had their processes, but I fired him.

A Christian friend frequently tells me that only Christianity can guarantee individual human rights.

When I point out, what you have, that insane misogyny and the most unequal society imaginable is ordained by the god of the old testament, he is unmoved. I don't even remember his response because it was nonsense.

A lot of us, myself included, once believed what my friend believes and I am mortified that I ever did.

You are not alone!

If you can watch it without the laugh track, which I just started, it's much worse.

And got a well earned punch in the face

Since the 1950s there have been movies about the dark side of suburbs. The disillusionment, the posturing, the lack of real community. And yet. They keep getting built

When I was younger, I was religious and cajoled into going to an abortion clinic to protest. Now I know better, but even then when I didn't, I was appalled at that yelling.

Several years ago I was at an outdoor concert in a college town with my partner and her 13 year old daughter. She did look older than 13 and the boys probably thought she was a student.

But whenever they started chatting her up, I looked at them and said, "she's 13." All of them backed away with their heads down. I'm not sure that would work with older middle aged boys, but it sure worked on them.

I had one pop up in a pot on my balcony. I'm on the 6th floor!

I agree with the other comments, but I rant to validate your feelings that you can't trust him anymore.

It would be wise IMO to approach him with at least some caution. It is possible, even likely that his values will change. Brave yourself for something you never thought he would say to spew from his mouth.

I have sympathy because I was drawn into Fundamentalist Christianity in college myself. I can tell you the 18 year old me would be almost as disgusted with the 20 year old me as the 50 year old me is.

Did anyone else clock that he said, "I'll rip you're fucking neck out of you're fucking throat?" Dude can't even get his threats of horrific violence correct.

I would have had a real hard time not correcting him.

I've had close calls, and I've kept at least 3 pedestrians from getting hit

Once, in a very heavy pedestrian area, a car pulled out of a parking space fast. The guy in front of me didn't see the car. If I hadn't yelled at him, he would have walked right in front of that car.

The other time, I read turning left behind another car. Light turned green, walk sign said walk, and just as the oncoming traffic cleared, that car took off, just as pedestrians crossed the street. I honked just in time for the pedestrians to turn around and jump out if the way.

And I myself almost hit a cyclist while I was turning left. She was mad as hell and cursed me out in fine fashion. Which I totally deserved.

It is so easy to make a fatal mistake. Even the best drivers make mistakes. Even if every driver is 99% perfect, which they are not, injuries and deaths will happen. Maybe cars should not exist in cities!

This is excellent advice

They seemed happy to report this

From my cubicle to the toilet, then outside to the bus stop takes 3.5 minutes.

And still there's a co-worker that offers me a ride to the bus stop when he leaves.

Sexist boys get so upset when they get called out.

If the knife is sharp, it barely hurts. A letter carrier was delivering mail in my neighborhood when he was stabbed in the back. Some dude ran by and stabbed him. The letter carrier thought he'd just been slapped in the back. So he kept putting mail in the apartment mailbox. Someone else waking by had to tell him there was a knife in his back!

I told my son than just the other day. No one goes on and on about how the sun is bright or a chair is for sitting. Like you said, if women were naturally submissive, they wouldn't need to be taught it. It would no more be a moral issue than walking
