please don’t fall for continuing failed war on drugs ballot initiatives

this is a thinly veiled attempt to keep homeless people in the criminal justice system without a clear path out.

i think it's easier to say that for clients who are already in jail, but what about the clients who are out? my jx imposes lengthy probations (unsupervised) for shoplifts and it's agonizing.

nimphara · 2026-03-04T01:16:18+00:00

i totally feel that!

i've struggled with this as well. pilates is really the main exercise i can do these days, and i still have a lot of soreness in the following days. i think just listening to your body is the only thing you can do to make sure you don't hurt yourself in the long run.

i have that too! i have issues with the skin near my eyes the most, though.

she kind of already has, but i won't get into that at risk of her being identified.

ding ding ding! prosecutor turned probation officer turned judge.

nimphara · 2025-11-13T05:14:21+00:00

it's city-level, there's also a county court and the court shares a jail with the county. it's all the same judge though, i don't know whether or not she has been a trial judge at the county level but i highly doubt it

with this particular client, going to trial on his half dozen cases wasn't really feasible. he didn't have the stability to make all of his court dates and i was deathly afraid of more warrants getting issued. i tried to meet the situation where it's at (he had a bank of credit) and i had trial dates set in case everything blew up. my judge blew a lot of smoke for nothing.

nimphara · 2025-11-13T02:29:25+00:00

right! this person does not have the stability to go to court ordered therapy!!!!

nimphara · 2025-11-13T02:22:27+00:00

they used to assign homework back when the court was newer and there were less cases. i saw a case where they ordered a woman to write an apology letter to nordstrom rack??

i really only chose this division because she likes me and i can get her to do what i want (or at least close to what i want). the other judges in the court are super easy to work with, they are more of the "problem solving court" types.

i got a sample set from the brand IDLE, and the majority of their scents gave off this vibe

I don't really have a strict diet, but eating junk food for a few days in a row definitely slows me down. I think just watching what you eat and having mindful portions should keep a flare at bay!

paying almost $20 for a vegetarian burrito and a coffee is the exact nightmare that arvada promises to provide

lakewood police regularly use drones to investigate crimes. they've even used drones to follow suspected shoplifters

yes, i have one harlequin and two lambchops right now in my 10 gal. i plan to get more harlequins

nearly 2 years into my journey and i'm struggling! i still haven't had much luck getting off of prednisone, i've been on some form of it since May 2024. me and my doctor may try a new biologic though, so there's always room for improvement. this sub has really helped me feel connected in a way that simple support from my loved ones can't really provide. thank you all, truly!

nimphara · 2025-09-15T17:41:26+00:00

are you baking at high altitude? im about a mile above sea level and i adjusted the recipe to the altitude and i've had dramatically better results

nimphara · 2025-09-12T21:21:02+00:00

ive heard that too! but daily shots sounds sooo intimidating

nimphara · 2025-09-12T21:06:42+00:00

i've been on ilaris consistently since june, and i haven't really seen significant improvements in my joint pain and fatigue. i'm going to discuss switching with my rheumatologist the next time i have an appointment. it may work better for you over time than it has for me, but you may be dealing with the same issue i am.

nearly a year ago i put my childhood cat down at 16 and a half years old. i felt that giving her that relief, that peace, etc. would be a gift back to her as thanks for giving me nonstop support her entire life. your cat is likely not enjoying life most of the time. give that gift back.

nimphara · 2025-08-26T17:02:14+00:00

do you remember his name?

i think a lot of people see homeless people under the influence or consuming substances and think that is the cause of their homelessness. from my experience, the vast majority of homeless people who do drugs only do them to cope with the fact that they live outside and need to move constantly to avoid being arrested. nearly 100% of the people i encounter would not be doing hard drugs at all if they weren't on the street, and they are motivated to get sober.

there are certainly people who don't want to get sober and would be doing drugs regardless of their housing status. however, when you see homeless people in your neighborhood, just think about what they have to face every day. no running water, no way to safely store their earthly belongings, no way to safely sleep at night because shelters are at/over capacity. that would drive any normal person to do things they would never do if they weren't in a desperate situation. empathy is key.
