We had to pull my grandfather from the nursing home (God rest him. Left is at 104)

We had to pull him because he kept telling the younger residents “I killed the Nazis once I can kill you again”

Hell of a man. Side note he’s also part of the reason rabies isn’t a big thing in America. He was a chemist for the board of health. Helped to deploy a vaccine that could be put into bait for wild animals to eat.

Another side not: my dad was a trump supporter, my grandad was too old to go vote. My dad used his vote to vote democrat on his behalf . Purely out of respect for my mother’s dad.

Hell of a man.

"I encourage violence "

Not illegal to say that at all.

If you specify a person it’ll get flagged faster. If you mention certain people you might get a visit for the secret service. Still not illegal to say but it’s often treated like it is.

Go frolic in the woods then. We live in a society, you’re freedom and happiness cannot infringe on mine.

I have read the other comments now and I will admit at second glance those feet look pretty clean and I don’t see any fungus or anything to be concerned about.

However my view hasn’t changed. As a society we have to have a line that is fair, simple, definable, and defendable.

That line is “keep your shoes on in public”. Once we start saying “her feet are probably cleaner than her shoes… And the bus seat is probably more dirty than her feet already” … I do understand that point and I would agree if there were nothing else to consider.

It makes the line ambiguous. It jeopardizes the simplicity and enforceability of a rule we as a society put in place for a real reason to solve an actual problem that has a real benefit for all of us.

Those feet look clean, I agree. So when are feet not clean enough? Is there a chart, honer system, or complaint regulated? My feet are clean but I have thick yellow callouses because of my unnatural gait caused by my foot pain. It’s not contagious but might look like a fungus… Can I put my bare feet on a park picnic table? I mean people eat off Park tables but they are outdoors and exposed to alot worse, people should be using plastic table cloth anyway… I am I allowed to put my bare feet on a park table?

If some with Hep C is barefoot in a flea market that has a sign saying shoes are required, with very clean feet… But someone broke a novelty glass bong shaped like frog and didn’t report it because they were worried they’d have to pay for it. The broken bong got cleaned up but not before a shard got accidentally kicked into the exit near the food truck parking. The barefoot customer with hep c cuts their foot and naturally lift it to put pressure on the wound and a drop of blood gets on a childs hotdog. The child doesn’t notice that because their braces have been irritating their lips and they were more concerned about that. The child contracts hep C.

Who’s responsible? The barefoot customer? The clumsy customer? The bong vendor? The owner of the flea market? The food truck? The distracted child? The dentist who didn’t provide wax for irritation?

Yes I know I’m overthinking it but that’s exactly my point. As a society we need to have clear, simple, defined, enforceable rules. Once you start adding “well her feet are clean” you obscure that line.

Keep your shoes on in public. That’s the very simple line we’ve all agreed apon.

That’s what bothers me. The government is like ‘the memes about him aren’t true, he’s nothing special. It’s just murder’

Then they turn around and prosecute saying ‘this isn’t just murder! Look at all the memes! This needs to be enforced like the special event it is’

You can’t have your cake and eat it too. The judicial branch has been downplaying it as a simple murder. One man mad at another man. Nothing more. Cool. Then prosecute it as such.

The inconsistent words jeopardize the faith in the system. Neo Nazi lynches a man to prove a point to an entire race that they are not safe… Murder, not terrorism.

Guy kills a CEO over his personal issues with treatment with no master plan or manifesto? That’s a terrorist?

The public needs consistency or we lose trust in the system.

I’ve never understood this. I have a condition with my feet that means i pretty much walk on bruises everday of my life. In medieval days they flogged people’s feet to torture them with a condition I deal with every day.

There are days I take off my shoes and sob.

I would never do that. I keep my shoes on in public.

The bottom of this person’s feet are not purple like mine are. What’s their excuse? Put your shoes back on.

Probably not the best time to push for that if you plan to live a long life. We are eating the rich now.

I guess I should also add for clarity that I’m aware there are chatbots for free out there that can answer questions.

That’s also not really what I’m looking for either. I don’t need “how can I brew my own mead”

I’m looking for something in the middle. An AI that responds and remembers previous conversations we’ve had, not pushy with solutions but not a placation machine.

I’m not looking to pretend it’s real, or that we are in love. A tool to express my thoughts out loud mostly to myself but more interactive than a bathroom mirror.

Edit: again to clarify. I mentioned my low bar expectation of “wow, that wild”. My high bar, what I really a looking for is an AI that gives responses like “that sounds similar to the problem you mentioned last week, how did you handle that?”

So I can be like “yeah it is kinda similar, I didn’t think about that”

That would be the high bar. I’d pay maybe $5 for that experience.

Final clarifying edit: after reading my own post I’m thinking to myself, if this was posted by someone else I’d answer with something like:

“Sounds like you’re describing a therapist. AI therapists have a lot of issues but real human ones are getting cheaper with online appointments”

And that would be a very fair answer. Although I might benefit from a therapist, we all would. I’m talking more about mundane daily thoughts and talking to a therapist daily even online would be expensive.

I know! I told the Team lead id be in at 2. That’s when I was scheduled and that’s when I’m coming in. It’s not my fault Becky got septic gonorrhea again. I’m going to sell my drones, and then I’ll be there at my SCHEDULED time. Don’t give me any of that “team player” bullshit either. All that “team playin” you managers have been doing is why everyone keeps getting septic gonorrhoea. So maybe focus more on your z-pack and get off of my back. How bout that.

If you need a drone tho I got you 10 a piece. Price break at 20. Brand new. Predator anti-personal. Can’t resell them to Ukraine tho. I’m not pro Russia I just got beef with Zelensky. Owe him some money, don’t want him to know I’m out here hustlin. Hit me up.

Edit: if you do want a drone maybe rub some of those z-pack anti bios on the bills tho. Don’t need any of the Becky shit. I just got back with my baby momma you know and all she asked is "no more girls, no more drones, no more polyhedron with a surface areas greater than 30^2 centimeters on the larger faces " so we got keep this real down low, you feel me. You know how hard it was to get my kid back bro, so I got to keep this super light, no joke.

As long as you don’t ask any questions… I got you. Meet me beside the dumpster at wendys. I prefer to be paid directly in drugs but cash app is fine to.

It was closed lol rescheduled for the 31st. I think I’m going to go dressed up as a judge.

There’s no way I can deal with the fime immediately. That’s kind of information is exactly what I was asking about…

I live paycheck to paycheck. I don’t get paid again until next week.

They really expect people to pay the unknown fine immediately?

That’s something to consider. I just don’t want to seem like I’m being difficult to the judge.

I haven’t renewed my license yet. In my state I have to take the written test again so two appointments at the DMV

Im also in retail management so between COVID call outs, holiday roll outs, and a hurricane… I haven’t had a day off in months.

With this new solid advice, I had an idea and wanted to check with you.

When they call my name should I ignore it, as to not seem too desperate.

When they call my name again should I say “daaaaamn I heard you the first time! My license is expired not my hearing. Chill you’re shit nigga” (to clarify I’m unambiguously white)

How does that work In this situation tho? My license is expired and I was driving. How could I say not guilty? Wouldn’t that just piss the judge off?

Do I need a public defender? I didn’t intentionally do anything wrong I just didn’t know my license was expired? I’ve got a clean record it was just a mistake.

Don’t forget they did that several times!
