This goes beyond just "put his murderer in jail," we need to change the way police officers are trained. He was following his training, and he ended up killing the man.
Well yeah, but holding his murderer accountable is a good start

It definitely is complex, but getting rid of unjust laws and holding cops accountable would go a long way in correcting the mistakes of the past and present and would give everyone, especially black people, a better life

The solution is to update racist laws so we can end institutional racism and, on an individual level, to not be racist

I'm not sure what else you could do, we can't go back and change the past, we can't go back and give the people that were actually slaves reparations, there's nothing we can do but try to be better going forward

It'd be better to close the School-to-Prison Pipeline

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/School-to-prison_pipeline

> In Spring 2018, a black male student at Apache Junction High School in Arizona wore a blue bandana to school-which violated the dress code. His teacher called the police on him for not removing his bandana. He was then arrested and suspended for nine days

Don't wear blue in a red state?
Sounds like he was a crip or at least the area had a lot of crips to make the teacher assume he was a part of them

Board game admirer here. My wife adores Pandemic and we also enjoy Catan. What board games would you recommend looking into for casuals like us? This weekend I was looking into Ticket to Ride, Barenpark, Through the Desert, My City, and Carcassonne. She hates games that feel unintuitive or difficult to learn, and ideally it would be something that works well with two people.
Ticket to ride would be a great one, not sure about the others so I won't comment on them, its straight to the point and pretty fun and can be done with 2 people

I've never been rejected for friendships or relationships because I've simply never tried to get these from people. Still I'd imagine not being friends if indeed worse. This situation though is more of a dating thing it seems. It should be easy enough to move on. If she isn't interested then she isn't interested. I will say though it's good you bit the bullet and at least tried to get something from her. Now you know the answer rather than wondering "what if?".
Pretty much the only reason I ever asked anyone else is because the 1st time I asked a girl out she said no and I immediately felt more relief because a no is better than wondering what if every day all day, though I didn't have the same feeling this time because I was just trying to be friends

LeetCheet posted...
I would never dare to ask one of my coworkers(Male or female) to hang out sometime after work.

I'm just too damn awkward to try to make friends myself.

If someone wants to hang out with me after work, they're gonna have to ask me themselves.

I mean, I would love to become closer friends with my coworkers but I just can't simply do it myself because I have so many mental blocks that prevents me from doing it.

What if I ask and it just gets really awkward afterwards?
Being at work would feel weird as hell and I'd probably start hating going to work and also started hating myself.
Just bite the bullet and ask them, no one thinks its weird unless you ask them to go do some weird shit also it won't get awkward for you unless you let itget awkward for you

At least when you get rejected for a date you can go with the mindset that you can't choose who you are attracted to and they have just as much choice in not being interested in you as you do in being attracted to them

But when a super nice coworker, classmate, etc. turns down friendship what can you do other than think that you're too lame to be their friend?

I think there are too many problems for UBI to work properly. At least anytime soon. And it really depends on how much they make. You say that people would work. But when people were making more money to not work, they decided to just not work. Even @Muscles (IIRC) said people at his job weren't returning because they were making more money staying home. It just depends on what benefits they get from working, and if they think those are worth it... That being said, there's also the problem of job losses coming with automaton and other stuff like self-checkout and whatnot...
Yep, but making more money to not work is different than working because ubi+wages > just ubi
