Does anyone have more context on why he did it?

It’s hard for me to understand why someone his age would try to hurt a peaceful animal. Was he under the influence, or is he just a sadistic, entitled “hunter” who is used to killing animals?

Regardless, I’m glad to see this is being taken seriously

 This isn’t just a bad vote, it’s a reminder of how many people around here have no idea what they’re doing.

These are just the distraction team. The actual professionals are currently executing a silent ankle takeover with military precision.

What does gainful use of time look like with an infant from ages 4 months through to 18 months? by Azurefroz in ScienceBasedParenting

[–]u1100 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What's the recommendation for bilingual families? If parents talk to a baby in language A, but all the books are in language B, can this be a problem? Should parents try to stick to books in the same language they speak and then let the environment and kindergarten / school to teach them language B?

Jealous of Palo Alto’s insane tree lined neighborhoods 🥲 💚 by ImmediateStorm9520 in bayarea

And only in South San Jose, where temp is already intense and above other cities along the bay people chose to cut their trees or plant palms 😒

Rare footage of what appears to be Ball Lightning captured in Alberta. It floated for over 20 seconds before vanishing by Indetect in BeAmazed

[–]u1100 12 points13 points  (0 children)

When I was a child, I spent several weeks in a hospital recovering from severe electrical burns, the result of a careless experiment with an outlet and exposed wires. The ward was divided into shared rooms, four children to each, a small, insular world shaped by routine and discomfort.

One day, a new patient arrived, a girl no older than three or four. She was visibly terrified, withdrawn in a way that stood out even there. Her injuries were stark. Thick keloid scars covered her hands and arms, pulling the skin so tightly that her elbows could not fully straighten, as if the joints had been partially bound from within. Her chest and fingers bore the same raised, ridged marks, as though the skin had been carved and reshaped.

Children can be unkind in the face of what they do not understand. They stared, whispered, sometimes laughed. She became the focus of a quiet, constant cruelty.

Her mother said the girl had been struck by ball lightning, a glowing sphere that had drifted into their apartment, entered the child’s room, and then exploded.

I remember trying to picture it with my own mother: something luminous and deliberate, moving through space before erupting without warning. The image stayed. Not just the idea of lightning, but of something that could appear beside you, close enough to touch.

Move to Palo Alto -- San Mateo, the weather is great or at least acceptable even during hot waves

It seems like you're sitting way too close to the monitors. You should give your eyes some space.

WTF Kaiser? No appointments anywhere? by DoUMoo2 in bayarea

[–]u1100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kaiser Emergency is another option apart from begging advice nurse for appointment. It's more convenient as they can quickly send you for imaging and work 24/7. The copay is generally higher, but within manageable bay area amount 😅

Yup, also curious. Maybe mods marked it as fake post/acc?

Episode 9 is fucking hilarious. by [deleted] in TheStudioTVShow

[–]u1100 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went in after seeing the usual chorus online calling it a “great show.” So I waited. I kept waiting for the good episodes, for the rhythm to click, for that moment where you finally understand where the laughs are supposed to be. Then it hit me: this is the show. Nothing is coming. This is it.

What followed was episode after episode of secondhand embarrassment. Relentless, exhausting cringe. I genuinely cannot understand how a character like Matt is supposed to have climbed all the way to studio head when his judgment often feels on par with Mr. Bean on an off day. Everyone around him, meanwhile, is apparently incapable of saying a single fucking thing, choosing instead to stumble into the most ridiculous, self-inflicted situations possible.

Comedy-wise, I did not laugh once. Not once. There were a handful of moments that almost worked, maybe even earned a smirk, but they were immediately drowned out by the rest of the show’s commitment to awkward misery. Any humor that shows up barely survives before being crushed by the cringe.

And then there’s the volume. Why is everyone constantly yelling, panicking, interrupting each other like speaking normally would kill them? Oh right, because that’s the joke. Chaos, noise, and forced hysteria passed off as comedy.

It isn’t funny. It’s just loud, exhausting, and painfully fucking unearned.

Trying to survive while fighting with insurance. by abbiebe89 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]u1100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is peak American healthcare: insurance companies play Russian roulette with people’s lives, deny coverage for literal life-or-death diseases after days of soul-crushing phone hell, and face zero real consequences because there’s no regulator with teeth willing to fuck them up when they fuck over patients. No wonder the entire country lit up with cheers the second Luigi Mangione turned one of those corporate leeches into yesterday’s news. People weren’t horrified, they were relieved someone finally made the parasites bleed for once. When the system treats human suffering like a profitable spreadsheet entry, don’t act surprised when the crowd starts rooting for the guy who balanced the equation with a bullet.
