For all its faults, we haven’t had a global thermal nuclear war yet. I credit the UN with part of that success. That is an amazing achievement given how much our species likes war and how we’ve had the capability for nuclear war for 80 years.
In the 1950s the top marginal tax rate for couples filing jointly making over $400,000/year was 91%. Adjusting for inflation, that’s $5,200,000. Just to put our current tax structure in context.
You know exactly why. Because Ron and his high heels have made public schools a hot topic. The headline might as well read “Cretin who is obsessed with children’s genitals has been rejected over and over again.”
Because a GOP Presidental candidate who is also a governor for one of our most populous states made school board elections a nation issue while he has the nations eye.
Following up on national issues is a reasonable press stance.
Perhaps this will motivate police unions to fight as hard against conditions that allow prison stabbings as they do against people being held accountable for murder.
This shit is so sad. I watched a video a few years ago explaining how exhaustion can lead to something like this happening, and it went into detail on how the brain tricks you into thinking that you really did drop your child off at daycare or wherever. It’s terrifying and tragic.
I accidentally left my baby in the car when I went shopping. I was so exhausted that I had forgotten I brought them. I was in the store about 5min and walked past the baby products and a spark went off I’m my head and bolted out of the store to the car. Luckily it was fall and the outside temps were in the 60s F. Never made that mistake again. I was paranoid after that.
My rental car I have right now has a huge obnoxious pop up and alarm when shutting off the vehicle saying to not forget your kids. Technology can solve this issue easily. Just need to have a device fold old vehicles where you plug it into a power point and when your car turns off have a alarm go off. Could be a good shower gift.
Edit: something like this a.co/d/4lvtwBP, guess it’s already been invented. I’m gonna get something like this for all the pregnant ladies I know.

Constant warnings when they aren’t needed just leads to them being ignored with everything else. My in law’s car had one that went off every time, even when the backseat was empty. It was as easy to ignore as all of the other pointless warnings that car had.
Why do sex traffickers still receive human rights? Honestly. Once convicted they should be free use tissue. If the victim didn’t wanna get revenge, they turn to medical slaves for testing. Something like that.
If you can’t do the time, don’t do the crime. Traffickers are uniquely evil and should get a unique legal treatment. I feel revulsion at a lot more acts and attitudes than I used to, but I’ve never felt bad at all for a trafficker. Even if there was a movie level backstory explaining them, until down otherwise, I feel is personally completely impossible for me to feel bad about anything that’s happened to them, and I would feel absolute glee if I heard they so much as got a paper cut. No other people group do I so thoroughly enjoy every little thing that they don’t enjoy. The sadder and more upset they get, the happier I am. But it only applies to them.
As a stupid kid I would have applied that to a lot of people. All of whom I feel terrible about it now. Except this one. I still love their suffering, and I don’t see that ever stopping.
And I do understand the problems changing their status would bring up legally, but I still wish I could own a torture farm just for them. Make a Saw multiverse.
