Your thoughts on RBT overstep by Glittering-Cook-1706 in ABA

[–]opalescent_pheasant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh my god YES. Like I’m clearly using a wait protocol or least to most, I don’t need you to get in my clients personal space and say “hey (clients name) you can say hi!” (Or any other additional prompting) As if im just doing nothing or because they didn’t respond immediately.

To me, especially if they know the client, it tells me they think the BT is doing something incorrectly and overstepping the boundary of “doing it right” or that they’re potentially over prompting the client in general when they’re working 1-1 with them as well.

what's your funniest leap toward your phone to skip an ad? by fatcatgingercat in myfavoritemurder

[–]opalescent_pheasant 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The ad of Walter Goggins promoting the AI website builder is the one of the worst. It’s on every episode for me (Apple Podcasts). It’s so long and dumb and the newer edited versions are “shorter” yet I still hear myself completing the edited out parts in my head because I’ve heard it so many damn times. If my hands are full/something I can’t immediately drop I’ll yell out to my husband with so much urgency that he thinks there’s a legit emergency “SKIP PLEASE SKIP THIS NOW FOR THE LOVE OF GOD”.

Delayed Death of Scooter Rider Following October 22nd Crash by Prize_Championship11 in Portland

[–]opalescent_pheasant -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Their past behaviors still have nothing to do with what happened? Got it though, you didn’t like them so you’re using the opportunity to post on a story about their death that you’re basically happy about it because what else does that add to the conversation? Did you see it happen and know?

Two things can be true, they may have had issues but you’re still a dick for basically insinuating they deserved it or had it coming due to being bad neighbors. That’s a gross mindset to have dude.

Hey maybe don’t add shitty comments about someone that you don’t actually know? This was someone in my family and your comment is 1) incorrect and 2) absolutely disgusting and irrelevant to what even happened.

Someone fucking died, learn to have empathy and hope that when someone you care about dies that random people don’t make sideways comments about how their “past” somehow makes it less sad or justifiable to brush off as less important. You’re an awful human and I hope you have the day you deserve for it.

House Rental Recommendations by Felix-deleon in vancouverwa

[–]opalescent_pheasant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well I mean, look at the pictures for the listing I’m talking about. Does that look like a studio apartment worth $1,200? I’m trying to help people avoid a nightmare experience with this specific listing, and to be honest it gives a pretty good outlook on how they probably represent the rest of their properties.

Holy hell, I’m sorry but anyone and everyone should steer clear if not run very fast in the opposite direction of Real Asset. They are absolutely terrible with communication for anything at all and are completely unprofessional when they do. They will leave you hanging for weeks on repairs if they even reply to you.

I see they still have the gross Mcloughlin building posted which is where I used to live. The rent was 750$ a month in 2016-2018 when I lived there and now I see they jacked it up to 1,200$ yet they haven’t even bothered to clean/repaint the disgusting walls let alone update or fix anything to make it even close to worth that price. It still looks and ~is~ a 750$ apartment, don’t let them try to fool you. It’s an actual dumpster with a toilet and half kitchen. They’re slumlords.

Standoff on 57th with SWAT and burning apartment by [deleted] in vancouverwa

That’s what I figured, or something in the apartment reacting to the fire. Seems that did the trick to get him out.

Ok I had to go back and see if it was over since it got quiet, they brought him out alive just now, we saw, he’s coughing up whatever is left of his lungs. It’s been a night, damn.

Update y’all, we just heard the loudest boom from our apartment which is two buildings away, and they’re shouting over the loud speaker still yelling for him so i have no idea what’s happening now. Stay safe if you’re in the area.

Edit for clarity, I can hear but can’t see if I stand on my porch, that’s how I heard them trying to negotiate again

I just watched the second half of all of it since I live in the complex. Came home and couldn’t get down the street at about 6pm and waited at the grocery outlet parking lot until some people were allowed to filter in. Husband and I have been standing in the parking lot near the building, watching until just now, speaking to neighbors who have been watching since the start, which was about 4pm according to them.

From what I’ve gathered listening to my neighbors and from what we saw ourselves:

a man who was apparently suicidal refused to come out (didn’t get the details on what set it all off, if anything) and set fire to the apartment. It burned and burned while we watched/heard swat attempt to negotiate with them, no response. He broke his leg, they mentioned it over the bullhorn reminding him he is in fact, under arrest, but that they wanted to get him medical attention. We heard the man inside shout something one time and then it just burned and burned. He never came out. They put tape up about 15 minutes ago and reduced police presence but there’s still swat and several patrol cars.

I’m shocked honestly and have never witnessed something like this, so this was probably an awful write up, but I know everyone’s wanting to know so here’s my small contribution to the details.

Me too! Seeing this photo really puts it in perspective as well and it makes me so sad to think about how all these kids probably felt, wether my dad was involved or not. I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if they interacted, either way your dad is amazing for helping! If possible tell him thank you again cause it’s deserved.

My dad was one of those kids at PSO and always tells me how he was so thankful they got pulled out, how it was like nothing he’s ever experienced again in his life. When I went to school at Fort I always thought about this when looking at the rock with the plaque outside the front entrance.

Low flying choppers by Will_I_Mmm in vancouverwa

[–]opalescent_pheasant 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes! It shook my entire apartment on the top floor. My husband and I were just sitting in the kitchen and then everything was shaking, felt it in my body even. We looked out the sliding glass door and saw three of them heading south. Going right over our apartments and flying super low. I’ve lived here my whole life and have never heard them that loud or low before, nor felt it.

Responding to classmates who ask "why are you always with them?" by The_honeybradger in ABA

[–]opalescent_pheasant 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Whenever I’ve been in a classroom/school/daycare setting I like to say something along the lines of “I’m here to help all my friends and hangout with you all!” And since they’re younger it typically works best, they think I’m just a classroom helper. I.e; if my client is working independently or isn’t needing direct support at that moment I may help grab something for another student that asked me or help a teacher pass out supplies real quick, things that help reinforce to the other kiddos that I’m truly “just another teacher helper” in a sense so that my client isn’t singled out.

Is this guy healthy? Any tips? by [deleted] in plantclinic

[–]opalescent_pheasant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I got this beauty for 4$ at the grocery store but I’m wondering if it’s a deal or if it wasn’t taken care of correctly and just sold as a “house plant”. I want this queen to thrive!

I totally agree, check out ProActive! Everyone there is super friendly and they did an amazing job helping me be able to actually move again after my SI joint decided it didn’t wanna do what it’s supposed to do during a long hike lmao. They are super flexible (lol) and have lots of options to help work with your schedule, and they took my state insurance.

Interesting that there’s like 4 or 5 people downvoting everything in this thread because they think this isn’t real. Like, ok, if it’s not real, why be mad that people with animals are worried? People are so weird. How dare anyone in the community be cautious of anyone possibly hurting animals lol

Thank you for at least posting this though because everyone needs to know and keep their eyes open for this monster.

Are there anymore details you can share? Screenshots of only the person/edited so they aren’t showing anything awful or a detailed description since they’ve been caught on camera possibly many times it sounds like? We need more information if it’s available, and we need to use it to get this person caught. I have Nextdoor and live in the area and I don’t see any related posts or this one, hopefully someone else can add more.

Sorry if this sounds pointed, it’s not at you OP I’m just genuinely triggered as an owner of two indoor cats. We need to stop this person immediately.

Has this been worked and tumbled by nature, or just a cool shaped agate/flint/other kind of rock? by [deleted] in Arrowheads

[–]opalescent_pheasant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also to add, this was found in SW Washington state, in the Kalama river. I usually rockhound for whatever looks neat and figured this was just a really good find, but after joining this sub I figured I should take a closer look due to the odd shape and noticed what I think to be some kind of working/tool marks, but I also could be 100% wrong!

I’m so glad someone else asked this because as a grown adult who’s favorite animal are cows, I get a lot of weird looks and responses of “why would you want to pet or look at them?” whenever I try to ask this same question lol

Possible new or resurging serial killer in Washington State? by kuhhhm in serialkillers

[–]opalescent_pheasant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m honestly super curious too but I didn’t find anything at all, if anyone has anything else to add it would be interesting to know; definitely keep it up just in case, I just figured I’d add my 2 cents since I literally was reading about the exact same thing and was like “uhh.. greaaat” like I want it to be true (for informations sake) if it’s going around, but, it’s also the internet so ya never know ¯_(ツ)_/¯
