The Didoche, a survival manual for christian communities during the roman persecution era, teaches that any stranger that arrives at your door should be fed and clothed for 3 days, after which point they need to make their own way in the community or move on.

Giving strangers the benefit of the doubt or taking care of those with legitimate disabilities =/= taking care of junkies or lowlifes for the duration of their lifespan .

Well, there's sucking at handling credit cards at 11% interest, and there's sucking at handling credit cards at 28% interest.

Not that I feel bad about it because I reached adulthood and learned my lesson with the 2007 recession, but young people are experiencing the double whammy of being the 'number go up' generation, with their parents and education completely failing to prepare them for number go down.

Now the only numbers that go up are cost of living and interest rates.

One of the 'tells' of mental illness in airplane passenger stories is business class. People experiencing manic episodes tend to take luxury options regardless of means.

It really sucks, and I'm sure red flags were present in the terminal if anyone paid attention.

On the plus side, she was probably hospitalized after the emergency landing, she may not be liable.

Oh well, it'll suck for me, but at least the poors won't be armed.

This really isnt any different than Grandpa calling the cashier at the Piggly Wiggly a 'colored'.

I've worked an ER servicing a major airport for years, I've seen tons of people like this lady come through. The vast majority of berzerk passenger syoroes involve first or business class passengers. That statement comes feom experience. 'Maybe's are like assholes, everyone has them.

This just in, studies using modern day neologisms are likely to find more evidence of modern day neologisms.

This is pretty late, they've been out for months. The most recent addition is the Pocket 8086, waiting on mine to get delivered.

It probably doesnt matter to most of you but it has an 8 bit ISA add-on board, meaning its an easy way to test era appropriate components such as Audio and video cards. Great for people more interested in vintage hardware than software.

Its a complex topic. On the one hand, retard police routinely put people who are violent but not for psych reasons on psych holds because it's less paperwork, and makes them the health systems problem instead of theirs.

On the other hand, psych nursing and medsurg nursing are two different skillsets and most medsurg nurses dont know their ass from emvironmental safety.

On the third hand, Doctors tend to be activist dipshits that routinely put staff's safety at risk by undermedicating.

Is any of this the fault of people going through a legitimate crisis event? No.

Limit outside of work social interactions to going away, retirement, and holiday parties, maybe occasional mutual hobby stuff like bowling or sports; basically large group outings a-ok, 3 people gathering sparingly, 2 person stuff is a bit too intimate

This is a sad ass article with some sad ass comments attached. For background, China subsidizes BYDs electric vehicle production (not domestic sales) as a result they have literal fields of low quality cars they cant sell that they've been dumping on the third world.

Things many not be going rosy for any of you, but dont think for a second that the grass is any greener in China. You guys buy a BYD, you're buying a coffin that will take the fire department hours to put out.

This is exactly what I expected to read. Latin gangs keep unaligned affiliates (mostly girlfriends) as straw buyers to pass background checks. I don't see how its the sellers folault, seems like we just cant keep our migrant and gamg problem under control.

Thats a loaded question if I've ever seen one.

I live in a heavily liberal city but have unhinged rightie friends in other states, including Texas amd Florida. The most unhinged ultra maga shit I see on their feed goes blow for blow with the brainless, bitter, amd sometimes hateful nonsense I see coming from my lefty friends feeds.

If one is a hateful loser of a certain ideology, they naturally blame the other side. It's human nature.

I got Sync for Lemmy because Sync for reddit used to be great and I refuse to create a reddit account. I'm mostly here for porn.

If you're not here for porn, you probably haven't come to terms with how inconsequential you are. Once you come to that realization you start doing doing things for yourself and things get better.

She broke her barriers by blowing the Mayor of San Francisco.

You can't own guns if you're conserved or have been involuntarily committed.

Please keep gunownership out of this discussion unless you actually tried to purchase one alongsode the 4.2 million new gun owners since 2020. I dont care which side you're on, but hoplophobia went out of style in my lefty circles since covid.

Break up now. She'll blame you for everything that goes wrong between now and a few months. Also, you dont want to be the guy driving her to every drug store in. 50 mile radius looking for Vyvanse and Adderall on finals week.

Its amazing how staff in a free country can raise safety concerns, while the culture of silence in Gaza kept even the hypocrites working for NGOs silent when literal hostages kidnapped by terrorists got brought in.

Considering that hummus was sitting on civilians for literal decades knowing it'll tie Israel's hands, it about time the message got sent that those tactics won't fly. I'm glad at least some of the hostages made it home safely.
