You really think sick people who are about to die are like “oh fuck, what about my coffin?!”

FWIW, fentanyl is laced in everything nowadays, not just opiates.

This community is about technology and it’s one of the most popular websites.

Damn, I forgot about the Victoria Taylor controversy. Brings back some memories

jeffw , to showerthoughts in We need a 4th emergency service for people in crisis to just evac them from bad situations, almost like the witness protection.

Sure, I’m not talking about OP’s post, but about the crisis services. 988 can get you in touch with local services, but mostly therapy.

That’s interesting about the domestic violence hotline.

Pretty much everyone in the USA is served by mobile crisis teams. 988 will connect you to one

    jeffw , to mildlyinfuriating in My ancestry.com experience in a nutshell
    @jeffw@lemmy.world avatar

    I’m not seeing any evidence that this was church-run at any point in time. Again, do you have a source for that claim?

    Just because a business was founded by a member of a certain religion, that doesn’t mean the business is owned by the church. For example, many Catholics own businesses. Does that mean the pope or their local archdiocese controls those businesses?

    I’m not trying to make this into a big argument, I’m just asking for your source that explains the church’s involvement. I do see that the owner made a deal with the church for discounted memberships, but any corporation could’ve struck a contract out in a similar fashion. Yes, the LDS church seems to have a weird interest in ancestry (thus the contract and the fact that one of their members made a business out of ancestry stuff)

    Source?

    Edit: okay, he downvoted me and the diverted the conversation. I just wanted a source, which he seems unable to provide. Just want this to serve as a reminder to people that you shouldn’t trust everything you read online, even in Lemmy comments

    Interestingly, I did find links to the Singapore govt, through GIC

    Definitely US-centric. You have to pay extra to get records from some countries. Works very well for people in the US

    I downvoted it because it doesn’t make sense. Claiming to be a centrist, but not a liberal? Sounds like a conservative. Just be honest.
