  • First off, I’m no murican, I just feel pity for them.l and cheered for Luigi. I am actually enjoying the best of healthcare for free.

    I am also surprised it took that long, but still. I’m pretty sure it won’t happen again. And he will be put away for long and most likely not survive it. As to the why…it’s one thing to be a poor whacko with access to guns. It’s another thing to actually get mentally all the way to being at peace with ending your life basically, plan ahead and then even have the balls to actually pull the trigger. And even if, where are those people. You need to study their routine to find a good place to do it.

    That’s probably why it’s so rare. The though-process to even get this far, the ethics to support it AND then the ability to act upon it.

    Millions are pissed, but way too few fulfil the “requirements”. Probably even less after the example they might make of him.










  • Their point was that the kid’s brain isn’t well enough adjusted to understand the ramifications of a permanent non-contact-decision. While part 1 isn’t wrong, part 2 is so horribly off, even to the point of someone seemingly fearing their toy might be leaving. Not saying pedo, but either that, silly conclusion or a total lack of empathy.

    And nah, i rarely block nor ignore. Most people fight for their point to the death, even if they already know it’s bonkers. Even “science”-people who totally shouldn’t, as it’s never a personal fight in science. And trying to indicate some kind of authority on the topic is fine too. I did it myself. Those who really have, know the difference of stating and posing it.



  • Facts? So heavily abused children should stay with their abusers forever because their "brain is not well-enough to make any lifelong decisions hence they are not… "? This is the most absurd thing I’ve heard in a while. Not saying their brain isn’t perfectly well adjusted. No shit sherlock, that’s old news. Just the conclusion is… Very questionable. The ramifications of a no-contact-decision is the faint possibility of starting a therapy and get slightly better.

    Anyone abused in whatever way, no matter how mature their brain is, should leave the abusive environment (at the very least. And get help at the acceptable best) . Isn’t that like the most basic survival-tactic? Avoid any kind of harm at all costs however possible.



  • Also with due respect, your opinion is wrong. I work with badly abused people, and those that CAN escape from toxicity at the earliest have it “best”. Some could never escape. There are 12yr old who have a forced maturity that you often don’t even find in 40+ olds. Which is not really a good thing.

    Please, i don’t wanna sound condescending or so, but widen your horizon in that regard please.



  • Depends. If they treat you loyally too, you should too. I always treated my employees as equals and any gain in profits was evenly distributed.

    In a perfect world that would be the norm. People actually liking their work, having a good balance, and also not just working for someone else but for themselves. Do help make it a good year and we all have a good year. Can’t make it to work today? No problem. As long as the respect is mutual.

    But people with tiny egos and great greed are ruining everything.



  • You don’t owe them anything just because you share blood. That being said.

    Without knowing the background: if it was not him you’re mad at, he might just want to have contact with his offspring. Nothing inherently bad. So why not? Can’t hurt. It’s not yes or no forever. Test what he REALLY wants and decide then? At least you can never blame yourself in the future for not trying, if you’re inclined to doing these things.

    But if there is any toxicity at all, fuck it. Ground rule #1 in life: cut toxic people out. Period. Be it blood or stranger. Doesn’t matter. But you already did this long ago, so kudos for that.
