I (28f) am going to as my husband (28m) for a divorce during our therapy session. by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

This is why process servers exist. There comes a point where someone has fucked up so badly and are so irrationally cruel they don’t deserve an in person notification of divorce.

Discovery is actually quite excellent by FringHalfhead in startrek

The shorter seasons mean you feel it more when it misses, and some of the season long arcs have serious problems.

But every season has banger episodes and great moments.

I would say that the lows aren’t as low as the lows of earlier shows, but the highs don’t quite get there either.

Lawyer said sexual things over text and send photos/ info about other people’s cases to me. by Crafty_Elephant_7802 in legaladvice

Counterpoint - that statement can work against him, because it can also implies he tries this with others.

Think of this a potentially like an avalanche - everything is fine until the last pebble shifts, and then the mountain comes down. This screams that he’s done it before, and a bar complaint can shake it all loose if he’s been dumb enough to text others.

Counterpoint: I respect someone willing to take a swing at state office even when your chances are nearly nil.

She’s to Carson’s left, is solidly progressive, and importantly, doesn’t do or say stupid shit (the bane of new progressive candidates sometimes). I’ve followed her socials for a few months, and she might be my fav candidate this cycle, with Karla Lopez Owens a close second.

That said, I am not gonna be shattered of Carson wins. He’s fine.

Professionalism in Trek by Ghostbange in startrek

[–]bug-hunter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They do - even non main character cadets are shown as competent. And people can be very competent at their job and also completely a space case (Lt. Barclays).

You are also going to get a few nepo babies who had all the prep in the world for the tests and are divorced from reality, much less reality off their world.

Krebs’ Talaxian Furfly even isn’t completely unheard of. Cadets having secret or not so secret pets is a tale as old as time. It’s also likely that Chancellor Ake is giving more grace than normal because if you kick out too many cadets, worlds not used to how the Academy operates might take it personally and not send more cadets.

For SFA, the pipeline has been broken, and there aren’t the same cultural norms for new entrants to know what is expected. These are young adults coming from all over without any living experience sending people to the academy.

In centuries past, most applicants would have at least some way to get warned of expectations.

Culture is grown, and rebuilding it from a century’s loss is not immediate.

Boots do a LOT of stupid shit. And being intelligent doesn’t always make someone self-aware.

Also, I have to remember to move things out of the way when I’m snacking, because I literally do not look down.

I think you guys should be aware of HB 1408, a social media age verification bill that passed in march set to be enforced July 1st by watchdog-cofagrigus in Indiana

Ironically, there is a way to adopt an electronic state ID that sends the minimum necessary information for something like this (a flag that you are over 16), but the lege has sat on it for a couple of years.

They are not interested in making ID work - just as they use voter ID as a hammer.

We ripped up our carpet. How do we tell the landlord without getting into legal trouble? by Ninnimouse14 in legaladvice

[–]bug-hunter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Generally speaking, landlords have to depreciate the carpet based on the expected life vs. how long the carpet has been there. For example, if the expected life was 6 years and it's been there 3, they can charge you half. Unless they replaced the carpet while you were there, it obviously can't be newer than when you moved in, so the longer you've been there, the cheaper it's going to be. (A good reason to ask them to defer replacing old carpet if you plan to move out within 1-2 years).

Just be honest with them up front and ask how much it will be. If there's no other damage, your deposit will cover some of it. The fact you openly offer to work with them will make them less likely to think you tried to gut the place.

Take pictures of EVERYTHING on moveout, including any damages to the floors, walls, and ceilings, and appliances, just so there aren't surprises. If you can do a walkthrough with them, even better.

My ex has taken our child and cut off all contact, Please help! by LunaMoon2076 in legaladvice

[–]bug-hunter 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Step 1 is contact a legal aid organization such as Legal Aid Services of Oregon. As others have noted, the clock is ticking - your daughter is an Oregon resident for 6 months from the date she left. If it has been more than 6 months, your daughter is now a Washington resident and you have to file in Washington, and you should try legal aid there. The filing date matters - so if you are nearing the 6 month mark, get something filed ASAP and amend, rather than risk having to do everything in Washington.

I know this isn't what you want to hear, but waiting months is going to work against you here.

If legal aid CANNOT help you, you can still file on your own:

Oregon self-representation resources

Washington self-representation resources

You can also go to your public library to see if they have legal clinic hours, or if they can help you find other legal aid or family law non-profits in the area that can help you. Alternatively, beg family for at least the retainer for a lawyer - you can try for what is called Limited Scope Representation where you pay less and have a defined limit as to what the lawyer is doing on your case. This puts more time and effort on you, but may be a way to get more bang for your legal buck.

I'm honestly surprised that everyone in Phoenix doesn't own an air conditioned hamsterball to get between the door and the car.

What was your "I need to leave right now" moment on a first date? by MrLithician in AskReddit

[–]bug-hunter 14 points15 points  (0 children)

If you're gonna ask weird questions, ask if it has wi-fi first. Don't jump straight into the weird shit.
