You missed the point. The police have some discretion in how they prioritise their resources. They tend to place at the top of that list anyone who messes with their shit. What I was suggesting was that messing with the police cars potentially elevated this from “yep, we’ll totally look into this thing, pop it on that pile over there” to “alright kids, you want to FAFO with us?”
What’s the likelihood that the “climbed over and into police vehicles” is 90% of the reason the police care enough to put any resources into a serious investigation?
Yikes. That made me think of the “let Jesus fuck you” scene from The Exorcist. So thanks for that horrifying idea.
I think they want little johnny poor person working crappy low-skilled, low-paying jobs. For the economy!
This is the reason I treat Reddit as read only nowadays, just in case.
That said, here is not perfect. I have been banned from four communities on ttrpg.network for, from what I can tell, liking a plausible-looking post that turned out to be a bot.
Spending 6 months of your life in prison is not insignificant. Incarceration is a serious punishment.
I think this guy needs to consider the difference between invisible and intangible.
If I pay for an invisible hotdog, I still expect it to taste delicious.
Or an uninhabited island that becomes full of cannibals.
Don’t forget being able to treat women like property!
I didn’t expect John Farnham scholarship as part of this topic, but I’m into it.
My warlock was a dandy with a fey patron who would buy a new outfit whenever he had a chance to spend money. It was a fun character.
As someone that age, “old but not very old” is an accurate reflection of how I feel.
Please define social media for me, because it seems like everyone’s take on it is “a website where you interact with others”, which is way too broad and I would say that applies to the entire internet then, which is a slippery slope.
That is effectively the definition from my understanding. Lemmy, Reddit, and similar boards are social media because the content is primarily user-generated.
It probably feels like the entire internet because it’s where many of us are spending most of our time.
The perception that it’s primarily powerful men is a distortion from the Epstein files. Those are the ones that can traffic victims maybe, but more often sexual assaults on children are by people known to the victim, like family or friends of family.
Which one has the greedy attitude if the parents decide “only one of our children gives a shit about me, the rest suck” and chooses to leave it to one child?
Are the greedy ones the other children who say “screw that, show me the money”?
Or is the greedy one the child that says “I sacrificed economically and personally to do unpaid domestic labour, now I’m getting paid back for my kindness”?
The FBI calls in its crack paranormal investigation team. The team consists of four plucky detectives and their dog. The dog is not forensically trained in any useful way, but is more of an emotional support animal for one of the team that struggles with addiction. It also talks to a limited extent.
The team investigates a haunting; revealing in a twist ending that it was the janitor in a costume all along.
…found my baby eating with some other man.
This is mine too. It’s a cute, fun movie. Yes completely over-the-top stupid, but that’s part of the enjoyment. I think a reason I liked it when everyone else seemed to hate it was that I didn’t have a Nintendo as a kid, so I wasn’t saddled with an expectation of what Mario should be.
Autism as a diagnosis is relatively new, but people would have always had traits that would be thought of as nowadays as autistic. As an example, Rube Waddell was a professional baseballer in 1897 who was so fascinated by firetrucks that he would run off the field mid-game to chase them.
The more I hear about Nauru, the more it feels like a made-up place. Most of the wealth of the nation came from mining bird poo for phosphates.
