My Pixel does. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Maybe you've heard of boofing? There's a supreme court justice who I hear was a big fan in college..

Have you heard of Delaware corporations? You're right, but for 250 dollars you, too could open up a shell company to hold your assets!

So many dick jokes. So much fun though

They're owned by a publicly traded holding company in Georgia (state) now and since 2011. Thst should be enough information to know why it's gotten worse.

Alright, that makes some sense. Fair enough.

I understand where you're coming from, and yes, there's 18 years of context missing. I'm self aware enough to recognize that this comment has made me a little defensive. I had hoped that by providing some additional context throughout the conversations I've been having all day would fill in some of the gaps but I also understand that these are conversations and not necessarily followed by everyone who has been kind enough to send their opinions.

Defensively, I'm speaking out of frustration and emotion, to a space that doesn't involve my teen. That should have some weight in this conversation, but your criticism is valid nonetheless.

The short condensed version is that it's been 13 years lying, deceitful and sneaky behavior, provable fabrication of events, and denials of truths. 13 years of being told by professionals that we need to stop berating the teen to which we've been forced to send pocket recordings of events to professionals to disprove what our teen has been telling them was fact. Our teen asks for nothing, expects everything, and doesn't say please or thank you. We did not raise them this way. Those lessons have either been forgotten or flat out abandoned in their disdain for us.

Our teen doesn't respect us, our home, our rules. We're not allowed to expect anything of them, yet they expect everything from us, and without question. Obviously there's a certain level of providing that a parent is expected to do for their children, but an 18 year old senior in high school is trying to tell me that it's expected of me to wake them up at 6:30 in the morning if they sleep through their alarm because they were up all night playing fortnite or hanging out on discord. I don't think so.

And to clarify, I didn't call them a "fucking sociopath". Sociopathy is a clinical phrase. Would you feel better if I called it ASPD or anti-social personality disorder? Like I get it, beinc called a sociopath has been bastardized by slang, but it's still a diagnosis. Albeit, maybe a little antiquated.

Here's the thing. A response like this on reddit wouldn't have surprised me. But imagine what would happen if folks on the internet re-engaged the public filter of "ya know, I don't really need to respond to this." How much more pleasant life might be if everyone considered that from time to time.

inb4 something something irony, something something hypocrite

Just a suggestion, but a short term UI/UX solution for this might be as simple as a badge or label suggesting that X instance is defederated from Y instance and that the users content will only be visible to their home instance.

Sounds like something a plushy train can help with.

I'm looking for a printer operator, and not requiring a degree. It's a techy job, requires a high level of attention to detail, and a high degree of work ethic. The job is collaborative and needs someone who likes to create, but has an understanding that it's a business, not a maker hobby.

The jobs exist.
