there was a story here recently about a lot of scamming happening on truth social. so yeah.

he’s a parent.

probably after 9/11, but i already had questions as a kid connected to the cold war.

i would add tomatoanus for speedruns. really appreciate that he makes a point to remind people to be kind to themselves.

i could say a lot in response to your comment about the benefits and shortcomings of algorithms (or put another way, screening tools or assessments), but i’m tired.

i will just point out this, for anyone reading.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2573025/

i am exceedingly troubled that something which is commonly regarded as indicating very high risk when working with victims of domestic violence was ignored in the cited case (disclaimer - i haven’t read the article). if the algorithm fails to consider history of strangulation, it’s garbage. if the user of the algorithm did not include that information (and it was disclosed to them), or keyed it incorrectly, they made an egregious error or omission.

i suppose, without getting into it, i would add - 35 questions (ie established statistical risk factors) is a good amount. large categories are fine. no screening tool is totally accurate, because we can’t predict the future or have total and complete understanding of complex situations. tools are only useful to people trained to use them and with accurate data and inputs. screening tools and algorithms must find a balance between accurate capture and avoiding false positives.

more than you’d think, i’m guessing.

anyway, what’s it to you? if someone has an abortion and never chooses to have a child, why does that matter to anyone else?

i hope you will forgive me for asking something so personal (and i understand if you choose to ignore it), but - if you want a hysterectomy now and have been advised of the impacts, why is she unwilling at present?

hot air balloons isn’t something i had given much thought to before. thank you for your responses here!

what does a crew do exactly? for that matter, what does the work of a pilot look like? i have been reading your comments, and i can see that planning is certainly a part of it.

excellent, thank you for this! i think you and the other poster made my day!

😆 some days i feel unhelpful! i was thinking after posting, i don’t mind saying i’m a therapist, just prefer not to identify my specific field/licensure.

edit - … as i’m trying to make myself not-too-identifiable.

helping professional. i won’t be more specific here.

welcome to fashion. you can add things to the body that emphasize good stuff, detract from stuff you don’t like, draw the eye in a particular direction, create an illusion, break up an expanse, etc.

enjoy!

i posted about having this experience on reddit a year or two ago and people were pissed? but yeah, empty shelves and barely any employees. it sucks, because i used to enjoy going there to see what’s new.

unfortunately, this is often true in big cities as well.

things are a lot better in that regard than they used to be. dv is no longer by default regarded as a “private matter,” laws and resources have improved.

on the flip side, dv can be hard to prove, especially to a busy cop or judge. and policing is also not a profession averse to abusers.

edit typo

i thought you were serious. and then i thought you weren’t. honestly, now i’m not sure, but i’m impressed either way.

what the heck… you’re really super into amazon, huh?

i mean, a great many people don’t appreciate being told they are murderers. it provokes defensiveness rather than an openness to pro-vegan arguments.

challenge. and yeah, i could have gone for something more recent, but i figured if you like endtroducing and haven’t heard this, you will probably appreciate it.
