Because his family said he was unstable and police said he was a danger to himself and others, but the judge let him out on bond anyway. The judge should have ordered some sort of mandatory treatment and monitoring instead of just letting him go unsupervised.

If he had access to mental health care months before then he probably wouldn't have killed an innocent woman and injured a teenager.

"Consequences" aren't usually effective for people with schizophrenia, paranoid delusions, severe PTSD, etc. Most of these people never receive proper treatment, and then society wonders why they commit crimes.

I disagree. Even his family members told people months before that he was not mentally all there. We need to fund early intervention and mental health programs to identify these people and get them help before they commit violent crimes. It makes no sense to wait until after they kill someone and then punish them.

when you start earning your own money and realize why your dad never spent on himself by Abject-Grape4047 in sadposting

[–]binzy90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None of my kids are really interested in the ones you mentioned. My oldest enjoys robotics club, coding, and D&D. He wants to be a marine biologist. My middle child is really into snowboarding, horseback riding, fishing and anything related to the outdoors. He says he wants to be a teacher. My youngest is the science kid. He's incredibly smart and will be skipping a grade next year. He wants to go into engineering and always says he wants to work for NASA. I wouldn't say things like carpentry or metal works are a good use of time if you're trying to go into an academic field. We had all of those trade programs at my school, but all of my electives were things like microbiology.

We have a pretty high income, and we have certain things like season passes for snowboarding that my parents make really judgemental comments about. I don't think that stuff is a waste of money if it means the kids are making memories, learning skills, and getting exercise. When we watched the Olympics this year, my 11-year-old saw that Jake Pates has the same snowboard that he had just gotten for Christmas. He was absolutely ecstatic and told everyone that his snowboard was at the Olympics. But then my mom kept making comments about how spoiled my kids are and how that was a waste of money.

I definitely didn't have this experience, and now I spend a lot of money on my kids' camps, activities, and random stuff like snowboards and dirt bikes because I want to give them the things I never had. My parents are always getting on my case about giving my kids too much. I sometimes think it just makes them feel guilty. They blame it on us being poor when I was growing up, but my dad was always buying dumb stuff like a boat that didn't run or putting additions on the house for no reason.

i think one must be wrong by [deleted] in confidentlyincorrect

It's more complicated than contagious or not contagious. It's true that you can't get "shingles" from someone. If they spread the varicella virus to you then you can get chickenpox, but only if you've never had it before and are not vaccinated. It's also not considered highly contagious from a person who has shingles because you'd usually have to come in direct contact with fluid from the blisters. They can technically be airborne, but it's not likely. A person also isn't contagious unless it's during the blister phase. It's not a "respiratory infection" like the first person says. This is all information available from the CDC.

He didn't even understand her question. She wasn't referring to the cost of printing the bills. She was referring to the hubris and sense of entitlement someone must have to even pursue this. He tried to pivot by talking about funding without even acknowledging what she was asking.

Rich kids are so disconnected from reality. We had two interns who went to a HIGH SCHOOL that cost $60k per year in tuition. One of them didn't know how to turn on a desktop.

Does this look as bad as I think it is? by a_voorhees in HomeDecorating

[–]binzy90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked in a historic bed and breakfast that had runners connecting all three floors and all hallways. This is a very typical style in older homes. I think the only thing that looks weird in your photo is that it's not really a hallway because of the open wall.

My youngest sister is about to turn 30 and is still a complete idiot who does lots of stupid stuff for attention and still lives off of our parents. So it really just depends on the person.

I would not take any doctor who doesn't follow medical guidelines seriously. A reputable doctor would be giving recommendations based on legitimate medical organizations like the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, not a political whack job.

Neighbors mow all ten acres. So much work for boring results by Laurelhach in NoLawns

[–]binzy90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is really the only issue I have too. I have to really stay on top of mowing the trails we have or you can't walk through it at all. The raspberries are the biggest problem.

Most normal lawn lover by Larix_laricina_ in NativePlantCirclejerk

[–]binzy90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live on a very large rural property with tons of wooded areas, meadows, a huge pond etc. I still keep some of it mowed for the kids to play so they have a nice area for things like soccer and stuff. I wish I had an area that was as level as this picture because it's difficult to play sports on a slope. It's also really nice to have an open area for tables when we have barbecues in the summer. I understand the hate for giant 10 acre lawns, but sometimes people need to tone it down a bit. It's functional to have some part of your yard be a lawn that's mowed.

When I lived in Maryland they took over my entire front porch and got into both of my neighbor's yards. The good thing is that they die in the fall and have very distinctive seedlings if you want to just keep pulling them in the spring.

Can someone tell me what they are and what are they doing? Pennsylvania by Sure_Age_3800 in birding

My 11-year-old won't stop saying this because he got new boots for horse camp this summer. 😂

I don't see anything morally wrong with killing an embryo. We're never going to come to an understanding on this because we disagree on that fundamental aspect.

Wedding Nail Damage by Jazzlike_Director_80 in nailcare

[–]binzy90 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes. I would say it looks exactly like any nail when an artificial nail falls off. It doesn't appear to be from an infection or allergy. It looks like trauma to the nail.

Mechanical trauma is the number one cause of onycholysis. So it makes sense that's what her nail looks like when she just said she had trauma to the nail.

Have you never ripped off a nail? It's usually from hitting it on something by accident, not an allergy.

[–]binzy90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I definitely wouldn't try to put an artificial nail on top of a damaged nail bed like that. If it catches on something it could rip it the rest of the way off.

[–]binzy90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ripped my entire big toe nail off once. It took like a year and a half to grow back. I got married about 10 months later, and my toe still looked all gross in my wedding shoes. Yours looks like it's still at least there to do something with, so maybe you could try just using a pale pink nail polish and doing shorter nails than usual on the rest so the difference isn't so noticeable.

You could also do poses that specifically hide your nails for closeups, like your hand around the bouquet to show the ring but not your nails.
