Topic | Pro-Life Woman Struggles to Get Abortion In State Where Abortion Is Banned |
Cuticrusader09 11/15/23 6:44:37 AM #33 | mistymermaid posted... I've said dumb stuff about abortion, but these own-goals are beautiful. Maybe they should form a soccer team! I mean Im Catholic but I definitely believe in the right to an abortion. Shit my kid is in religion class and the teacher though it would be a wonderful idea for the kids to ask for a donation in their name for Christmas and for them to share it with the class to see what a difference they are making. I am going to make a donation to Planned Parenthood and watch the teachers head explode. I personally cant wait. |

My dad was beat up by another patient in the middle of the night. Oh and when my dad had Covid the place called an ambulance but didnt also go into his file to get his dnr & dni. The emt called me before they drove off to the hospital and I said make sure they give you them. |

And with the strikes just ended, you would think they would want to have a ready to go movie for the gap they will have until new stuff is ready to go. |

Cuticrusader09 11/11/23 6:38:21 AM #45 | Dark_Arbron posted... Is this really such a huge issue in the US? When I was in high school 20 years ago (and in Australia) this sort of thing was basically unheard of. If it was a common problem Id like to think Id have known about it sooner.I think like most things it depends on location. I live in the NE US in a middle class suburb. There are some problem kids, but in general classes are fine and kids behave. But maybe its because we live in a decent school district where parents want their kids to learn. Kamen_Rider_Blade posted... Turn Off the Smart Devices, CONFISCATE EVERY single Smart Device that a student may bring into the class-room. Kinda fucking hard when my kids schools no longer have textbooks. Everything is on the Chromebook. Teachers have something called Goguardian to monitor what kids are doing on their chromebooks during class. TheoryzC posted... Phones/ipods/Sidekicks weren't allowed in my school In my district kids up to middle school can bring phones but cant touch them during school. Due to kids needing to contact parents after school. In high school no phones during class. You can use them in the halls, study halls, lunchtime. |

The obsession with height starts early though. My daughter is 59, she has friend in high school that was trying to claim he was 510 but he is shorter than her. She didnt say anything though, she just rolled her eyes. |

Cuticrusader09 11/08/23 8:26:49 AM #48 | [LFAQs-redacted-quote] You really need a 2 income household. My mom did not start working until I went to college. She was 43. At that point there wasnt really any retirement savings from my dad. She pretty much put her entire paycheck into retirement savings. She managed to hit a million by her retirement age. When I married my husband he did not have any retirement savings. But we decided to live below our means. So now we have savings. |

Cuticrusader09 11/02/23 1:12:57 PM #55 | Schools just dont have time to get into all the detail and have to pick and choose what to cover. If you get interested you do reading on your own or take college level classes. My father lived through WW2. He was 14 when Poland was invaded. He had been working for a Jewish family who got disappeared after the invasion. He then ended up at a German work camp. He worked on a farm until the Americans freed him. At which point he ended up with the American army helping in the medical tents which was traumatic for him. But he stayed because he had nowhere else to return to, he left home when he was young because there were too many kids and not enough food. Eventually was a driver for the army after the war in France and immigrated to the US after a general helped with that. |

Cuticrusader09 10/31/23 11:00:34 AM #34 | RchHomieQuanChi posted... So did people suddenly get worse at managing money over time? Because there was once a time when Americans didn't face nearly as much financial insecurity.Part of it is how easy it is to use a credit card. I am old so I remember when people in line would get pissed if you pulled out a credit card. They had to make a carbon copy, write down your address (I think) so people really didnt use them too much. Also jobs with no education beyond high school used to be better. Many machine shops would take you on and train you. A lot was automated and a lot more overseas so most of those jobs are gone. |
Topic | FNAF movie opening beat the Mario movie opening by 8 million dollars |
Cuticrusader09 10/31/23 10:43:39 AM #58 | Solo_Wing posted... So they launched this movie in theaters at the same time they did with streaming. You can watch it right now without going to theaters as long as you're subbed. And yet it already made its money. What was Pixar's excuse again for bombing multiple movies in a row?Doesnt FNAF appeal to teens? I can see teens wanting to get out to watch it vs watching at home with parents around. Pixar movies are for kids whose parents decide where they will watch it and taking young kids out can be a hassle so I see parents just saying screw it, Ill wait a bit for streaming. That plus FNAF cost a fuckton less than a Pixar movie. |

Throwing a few extra items in a wash cycle doesnt cost me any extra time. Them doing a load on their own does cost more electricity & water though. Southernfatman posted... I wouldn't demand a certain rent amount like a landlord because that's just dickish. Parents who kick their children out at 18 are also horrible, especially now.Especially when young people, especially women, can end up in abusive situations when kicked out like that. Glob posted...
Disabilty insurance is available for a reason. Also why you pick up term life policies once you have kids. As for jobs being automated. Jobs change all the time. You need to stay on top of it and keep picking up/learning skills. I remember how much shit was take a number from a print out and type it into a spreadsheet when I started working 25+ years ago. All that is automated. So many paper policiesnow all digital. |

Cuticrusader09 10/29/23 7:34:52 AM #26 | pnut027 posted... Im not about to sit here and financially support able bodied, mentally capable adults. When my kids are adults, its time to wind down my finances, so that my wife and I can retire comfortably and relatively young. A mortgage on a house is the same no matter how many people live in it. Food expenses will be a bit higher but I dont see them as something that really would have a material effect on retirement. I do not plan on charging my girls rent or kicking them out. |

I havent followed South Park in a bit but are they still doing full seasons or are they just doing these occasional specials now?They do short seasons that are on Comedy Central and then stream on Max per their agreement. Then these specials or events show up on Paramount+. Overall when you combine the 2 they are making the same number of episodes (since the specials are double length). BUT, there is lawsuit between Max and Paramount where Max says the got shafted and wouldnt have paid as much for South parks streaming rights if they knew that seasons would be cut to 6 episodes so Paramount + would get exclusive specials. |

Topic | Got a job offer that pays 20k more than my current job |
Cuticrusader09 10/26/23 8:43:02 AM #24 | meatlesshotdogz posted... Id agree. My current company is doing everything they can to get me to stay. As a contractor I dont get holidays or PTO. But theyve moved my schedule around so I dont have to work holidays coming up, and even found a way to give me unofficial PTO by signing off on hours I dont work lol Take the other job. If you stay you will be constantly underpaid your the company will see you are loyal and can take advantage of you. Way back I was in a similar position. Was a contractor at a company. They had a hiring freeze. I was great at what I did. got an offer elsewhere. Tried to leverage it. Company couldnt do anything so I took the other offer. Ended up back at the original company 4 years later as a regular employee but making a lot more. For your career the smart thing is to take the offer. You can always come back but only as a regular employee not a contractor. |
