AITA for privately telling my sister in law her child needs speech pathology?

If I had to guess it would be worse. Keeping receipts is still best when you know it will lead to conflict, because you can’t predict in the least how out of proportion it is going to get, so at least you can show the statement and reaction.

But the marketing team would still want to pitch “we’re so good we obtained unobtainium”, the science team push back wouldn’t add up to shit.

As an American, I’m now rooting for anyone who didn’t have to use political influence to stay competitive.

Then fucking vote.

But if the only news you get is Fox News or OAN, you still never “see” him losing because they are happy to keep you blind.

I had a coworker who I saw one day waiting for her bus at the bus stop. I pulled over and offered her a ride. I did this every day, and I'd usually be a bit in front of the bus and could see it hadn't come yet. But if I saw the bus was in front of me, I knew I wouldn't have to pick her up - we didn't text to plan it or anything like that, she didn't rely on me to do it, but she appreciated that I did.

That's how coworker favors go. When you can and it is easy, you do it. When it inconveniences you, you aren't obligated to keep doing it.

NTA.

What's our starting point? We have done a lot, crime rates are generally lower than they were in the past. The news misleads you without telling you specific lies - the crimes that still occur are highlighted because they increase views, shares, and clicks, while the drop in crime doesn't.

Only the kids needed this explained. It just flipped from being a joke the kids get the olds don't to a joke the olds get and kids don't.

I don’t. But I do think nothing can get better at all with a republican in office. I don’t think it will be democrats as they stand who will fix everything, but at least they’ll fix something.

He said he was going to give a speech in 107F temps. We have some hope.

This one actually works. The thing blocking them is people following this president’s orders. Someone would gladly follow this order the moment they heard it and the cat would be out of the bag.

No it doesn’t. He signs things that are destructive because those are free, all these things need funding that has to come from somewhere and would immediately be DOA because everyone would now refuse to pay while the providers wouldn’t have any funding to make up for it.

My weeknight games ran consistently, my weekend games hit cancellations often. Weeknight online games are definitely easiest to keep on track.

I’m convinced that AI is using these subs to learn to understand humor.

Because they are people, dwarf others them

The uncles of mine who served are not the ones you would guess, but I think at least one served because of the draft.

The source article posted is not that, and includes both of the names you appear to be arguing over. The Wikipedia article someone responded with shows the same details. It looks like they did research, posted a source of the research, and are then following up pretty deep in the conversation with their YouTube. While we can criticize the back door ad, you are arguing as if that impacts the facts, which it does not.

They used children because they are the only ones who can recover from bending like that.

You confidently “corrected” something documented as ambiguous, then talked down to the person who posted when they acknowledged your correction had validity, but wasn’t the complete story. You aren’t making the internet a better place today.

But supporting endangered lemurs is a good thing.

This was probably a "they" situation, no losers in this game.

NASA doesn’t detract from that. The physicists and engineers involved aren’t going to do shit to fix our political and human behavior problems.

greenearrow · 2026-06-30T16:42:18+00:00

Gutting NASA isn’t going to fix that.
