Everyone deserves respect.

Respect is in fact, not earned.

One loses respect due to their behavior.

What I think is that because they are incapable of empathetic thought, the message gets lost.

TNG’s Time’s Arrow, DS9’s Past Tense, VOY’s Life Line are all just made up stories to them. No human condition there.

My spouse works for compliance and usually you are given a chance to right everything before it goes as far as being audited. Like you said, mostly administrative issues is taken care at the first level and it’s no biggie.

So if someone is being audited something is already very wrong and the first level folks have sent the case to audits or even criminal investigations.

Compliance means that if you made a mistake, the IRS will give you a chance to correct it. And if you decide not to fix it? then they come for your shit.

If you don’t want them to come to take your shit, FOLLOW THE FUCKING LAW. So simple!!!!! Isn’t that how it’s supposed to be?

These right wing nut jobs are something else. Haha.

I started knitting for my kids when we were living in colorado.

so I ended up processing wool from raw fleece -> hat

raw merino fleece, raw alpaca fleece, Scouring soap, dye, dyeing classes with natalie redding, spinning wheel, drum carder, hackle, table loom, warping thing for yarn

Math

ended up going to school for math education (with pell grant $500 per 6 month term) I can't pass the exit exam. tried 5 times out of those I had to pay out of pocket for 4 of them $480.

and surprise, I got dxed with ADHD. That's why I couldn't pass the tests. now I pay $50 a month for it (doc + meds)

Yea while we were in alaska we were capped. we were in fairbanks as well, which isn't that rural. I lived in the high desert of california. drive 20 min from hesperia to phelan and you could probably get meth easier than consistent internet.

I lived in conservative california and that sounds about right. Only thing that kept us alive was that my spouse happens to be a vet and we're asian so we get a pass. We lived there for a while until my spouse got a job after covid. They literally think that it's a warzone out there. So much bullshit spread about the city. Of course the news just fans the flames.

This lady I knew never went to the fashion district in LA because she pretty much believed that her blond and blue eyed kids would be snatched off the streets by minorities. The ironic thing is that we lived off the I-15 which is a huge human trafficking corridor so the kidnapping would have more likely happened closer to where they live. Also phelan is full of meth heads but you know, that doesn't matter.

The song is about sundown towns and that makes it racist AF.

Coping with humor (startrek.website)

Anyone else cope with their mental health by joking about it?

My childhood was so absurd I just can't be serious about it.

I take so many meds when my pharmacist asked me why I take two meds that do the same thing I told him that "that's just how much my brain is ~~f***ed ~~ messed up". He didn't appreciate it.

my spouse tells me that people usually don't like it when you do that and that's why I have trouble making friends.

Can anyone relate?
