I could offer a diagnosis.
<shakes magic ball> “says ‘maybe’”
Hey! You get what you pay for (that’ll be three cookies and a glass of pasteurized milk.)

I feel sorry for the intern that has to document that.
Yup.
Also, can we just stop for a second and ask which is more important- the experiences, or documenting the experiences?
(though I don’t have kids,).
Especially because “don’t rape” and “don’t have sex with kids” aren’t even part of the commandments.
In fact there’s other passages that explicitly say, “fuck their daughters after killing the rest of their family”.
(And people wonder why these things happen.)
Somebody should probably investigate this guy for raping kids.
Just saying,
For the record, I’m willing to bet Apple and Google are training various AI models using photos on your phone, without your consent (or consent burried deep in a ToS.)
Didya really think Apple cared 'bout people having CSAM on their phones/icloud? (it does make an amazing excuse to scan every photograph you’ve ever taken or downloaded, though. any one who balks is immediately now protecting pedophiles. Apple, Google, they’re corporations. their ethics are dictated by the bottom line.) (they’ve since gone to on-device options that attempt to block or intervene if a child sends or receives things that are inappropriate, and offering to point them to an adult.)
So, like if you look at photos from his coronation, check out his fingers.
Pretty sure that’s from dialysis. I do know it’s a pretty good indication he won’t reign as long as his mom did.
Haaaaaaaaaard disagree. People need time to process and self regulate before engaging with things like this. The silent treatment isn’t the right play, and neither is stewing in it, not trying to reach an emotionally grounded state, and reapproacing the situation.
So she gets to unilaterally decide when they talk? including, when the OP is in a vulnerable mental state? I think you’re focusing too much on what the GF needs and denying the OP the same you’d give her. The fact that he was sleeping would definitely suggest he’s not ready to have the conversation.
Why not? He could make the argument that the election was stolen and ignoring it is in the best interest of the United states.
because that act is not POTUS’s job. He’s making the argument as a candidate. he’s not supposed to be part of that process because he’s biased.
as for whose to say what’s reasonable… that is the problem. right now a dangerous number of SCOTUS are bought and paid for, or are absolutely partisan hacks.
I didn’t say I didn’t believe, but I felt context was necessary to the ‘hundreds of thousands’.
It’s not even a single percentage of people in the US. if we assume it’s only men, it’s barely half a percentage of men in the US.
For the record, that would be an illegal order and should be refused by everyone involved in the military chain.
(Whether or not it is refused is a different matter.)
They sent back the question of what is an official act. And when the judge comes back with something like “official acts are those in which a president is acting in an official capacity as the president to fulfill obligations and duties of the president.” (IANAL….so there’s probably some anal retentive detail that is super critical in missing)
In any case, when challenging the election, that is not an official act- that was something done by Trump-the-candidate.
Inviting foreign dignitaries, however frequently is. (But probably not when selling out America and other spies to keep compromat from leaking)
Organizing an insurrection in the US never is, however.
I’m alarmed by the alarm in the dissent- they probably know where this is going, but POTUS has enjoyed some immunity anyhow as far as official acts go. And when it’s kept to a reasonable understanding… that’s more or less good.
Their alarm suggests that the majority here is not going to have a reasonable understanding when that gets appealed.
I think this is a strong argument to legalize prostitution to provide legal recourse and protection for anyone in the profession who’s getting forced into the work.
I agree with this statement. Sex work should be legalized, not least of which for protecting everyone involved. However… something to keep in mind is that… hundreds of thousands… is not that large a percentage of men. Even if you assume it’s 900,000 men, the total number of people in the US is 350 million- meaning that 900k is 0.25%. granted, I’m blending men and women- there’s plenty of women who also buy trafficked slaves as well. but if you figure half the people in the use are men, and it’s only men doing it… that’ still…half a percent.
thinking about this…
you know how gaudy most trump towers are?
and how gaudy a lot of Saudi-rich-people-places are…?
Yeah. I wonder if… it’ll be extra gaudy, or just straight up… tacky.
If by “bet” you mean tripling down on massive bribes…. You betcha.
Agreed it’s just a different technique, but I’d suggest some techniques are more objectionable than others- both of these are on about that same tier.
or maybe you could understand why it’s a form of torture and understand what I’m trying to say.
Hint: because it put somebody into a vulnerable, easily manipulated state. whether she knew it or not, she was taking advantage of that vulnerable state. she brushed off prior attempts to talk it out, which is fine. But she doesn’t get to unilaterally expect that conversation on her timetable. He gets to say ‘no, I’m not in a place to talk about this,’ too.
Are you the gf? Do you know if they did? Or will?
Or are you just assuming?
Or are you suggesting that I’m being over dramatic? Cuz, she woke him up in the middle of sleeping at night. Sleep deprivation is absolutely a form of torture, and while it’s probably not sleep deprivation (yet) it’s absolutely manipulative as fucking hell.
I can’t know if OP is exaggerating or not, or if they’re going to or not. Yes that’s an assumption on my part.
As related, though, the behaviors described are heavily manipulative.
As related: she decided unilaterally when to have that conversation. And she decided to do it when OP was near-comatose in sleep. An altered state that being roused from does not contribute to reasonable conversation.
Walking away is fine, but it could have (and should have,) waited until the morning.
Now look at what she’s saying is the problem- he missed a text, but also wasn’t waiting to escort her downstairs. Ultimately- if this is legitimate on her part it’s “you don’t care about me”.
Now look at the fears she is expressing- that it’s literally unsafe to get dropped at the curb and walk in. While it’s certainly possible, the reality is that if it’s that unsafe, then asking what he’d do- and she jumps straight to killing?!
And the CCTV stuff- which OP has no realistic way of knowing or resolving.
Yeah; no. All of this is meant to put OP on the defensive, in a state that OP is not able to think clearly. As relayed it’s straight up manipulation, and if the most vile sort.
This is absolutely manipulative.
Whether she realizes it or not, refusing to engage or talk about it, except in her own time frame- is not a good sign for a healthy relationship, and when she did decide to talk about it, put you into a compromised position- being unable to think clearly.
The questions she’s asking are meant to elicit fear and massive guilt. Though to be blunt, I’m going to assume there’s no real danger of any of that happening, I assume the neighborhood is fairly safe. Because usually it is.
As for what you’d do…? Call the cops. Duh. You (probably) don’t have the resources to find any one and kill them, and besides which, if she’s really asking that you do, uhm… dodge that bullet.
Sleep deprivation is a form of torture.
This is absolutely manipulative.
Most of these charges predate his presidency.
