2023.06.01 03:50 Narcissist-Narwhal Self Realization

I’m a single mother who wasn’t cut out for hard labor. I’m to ugly to do porn but I’m to pretty for Burger King. I’m just existing until opportunity comes into my life through the back door.
Let’s start somewhat in the beginning- I was born in Mendocino County California. Directly on the coast in Fort Bragg, on February 10th, 1998. I’m 25 years old, but I will leave the rest of the boring details of an uneventful and traumatic childhood for a different “poor me” post.
For now, I’m going to tell Reddit all about my chronic laziness problem and inflated expectations/ego. I need to tell someone in depth why it is that I get fed up with a aspiring relationship before I even go out with a man, but also, why it is that I can’t find a man that wants to put up with me for the rest of forever. Firstly, I not a worker, I have not ever thought about what I wanted to do in terms of a lifelong career because, well, that just seems like a really long time to have a job to me. I worked in the legal cannabis industry trimming weed for a distributor, but I started talking to this man on the dating app Plenty of Fish, one thing led to another and I quit my trimming job because I got offered an opportunity to “audition” for porn.
I didn’t have my own vehicle so I bought a greyhound ticket and told my mom I was going to meet a guy in the city to try out for a part in an adult film. I should mention that the man that I was going to see in the motel for my… interview lol… was not the man that I had talked to on Plenty of Fish, the guy on plenty of fish set me up with the opportunity to meet the guy in the hotel. My mom was obviously upset by the fact that I was so willingly to jump at this chance and didn’t even think twice about how I could probably end up getting murdered by this man-in- a-motel-room. So naturally, she drove me down to the city because she didn’t want to seem unsupportive and she got a room in the same hotel as me.
I probably don’t need to say this but I’m going to just in case some of us are a little slower than others… Yes, I slept with the potential murderer. He had me show him what I could do lol, my mom and I stayed in the city for two days while I was interviewed and then we left and he said he would put together a small script and work me into a part then he would get ahold of me when we were ready to film. If we are still a little behind, no, he never called me back with a script, I got porn catfished! I made an Onlyfans account after that and was in the 10% of creator’s for a long time, but it was hard to find and keep subscribers and my boyfriend at the time started focusing all of our content on his genitalia and that didn’t fly with my subscribers who came to see my solo content.
I know that I’m not a 10. I am fully aware of the fact that I am not all that and a bag of chips and I am definitely not everyone’s cup of tea because I’m probably a fat dab. In my own mind I’m pretty enough that one day I will find someone who will want to take care of me financially, put up with my bad ass attitude and accept the fact that my attitude will never change. I am the woman that will wake up with you everyday at 4:30 AM to make coffee and packs your lunch before sending you off to work. I will take care of the kids, do all the household chores and perform oral sex every night as long as I don’t have to work anymore, but I also won’t even consider a relationship with anyone I find less attractive than myself no matter how lavish the lifestyle and that has caused a dilemma.

2023.06.01 01:32 MoldyPineapple12 In Defense of Sherrod Brown - Part 6 - Tim Ryan vs Joe Biden + DeWine’s Coattails

Hello angry observers. Welcome back to the sixth installment of my Sherrod Brown series! This one is again about Tim Ryan, particularly his turnout and margins compared to Biden’s 2020 performance in Ohio. The goal with this one is to help us analyze where Tim Ryan got what he needed and where he fell short. This will tell us where, and by how much, Sherrod Brown will need to improve on Tim’s numbers.
MAP 1: RYAN VS BIDEN AVERAGE TURNOUT
This is a county map showing the average turnout for each county between the 2022 midterms and the 2020 presidential election. Green counties had higher than average turnout in last year’s midterm compared to the 2020 presidential, relative to the rest of the state.
To make this map, I took each county’s ratio of votes between the two elections and shifted them over the state average, 30.33% lower turnout in 2022 vs 2020.
MARGINS:. . . 0-1% highelower than average. . . 1-2%. . . 2-3% . . . 3-4% . . . 4-6%. . . 6-8%. . . 8%+
Important county numbers:
Franklin (Col.): -2.47% (basically 2.47% lower than average in 2022 compared to 2020) —
Delaware (Col. sub.): +8.58% —
Hamilton (Cin.): +0.52% —
Warren (Cin. sub): +4.63% —
Cuyahoga (Clev.): -4.53% —
Lucas (Tole.): -4.15% —
Summit (Akr.): +1.39% —
Greene (Dayt.): -0.56% —
Mahoning (Youngs.): +2.34% —
If there’s any number you want for any particular county(s) for either map, lmk
Let’s break this one down.
The first thing you’ll notice is a decline in turnout in most of the cities, with Toledo, Columbus, and Cleveland being the main ones. Meanwhile, Cincinnati, the most historically conservative of the biggest cities in the state, and the Youngstown/Akron metro saw higher than average turnout compared to 2020.
The rural counties were a mixed bag. Some saw higher turnout, while others saw lower. Counties in the south and Appalachian regions are the fastest shrinking in population and are also the reddest on the map, yet this trend did not hold up for the comparably declining Northeast.
And, as expected, our fastest growing suburban counties are the darkest green: Union and Delaware north of Cbus, and Warren northeast of Cincy.
In an effort to see what 2020 turnout would have resulted in for the 2022 senate race, I averaged out each county’s numbers to what average turnout looked like in 2020. After the adjustment, JD Vance would’ve still won by 5.72%, down slightly from his actual margin of 6.11%. It would’ve shrunk his 252,000 vote margin of victory down by around 16,000 votes by my calculations, or .39% less, a drop in the bucket.
I even went through the effort of adjusting each county by 40% of its population growth/decline from census info from the last decade, and Vance would still win by 5.63%. In other words, this would be Ryan’s margin if he had 2020 Biden turnout in each county but if each county also had its projected 2024 population. The reason the margin stayed almost the same is because rural decline and the decline of rust belt cities canceled each other out, as did growth in red suburbs and blue Franklin county.
Turnout alone was not going to save Ryan’s campaign. Like many of you I’d imagine, these results surprised me, but I found two explanations for them.
First off, we’re shifting turnout onto another notoriously high rural turnout presidential election, 2020. Rural turnout wasn’t higher than average across the board this midterm because I compared it to 2020, instead of, say, 2018. While many rural counties would’ve netted less votes for Vance, the red ones on the map would have netted more after the adjustment. On the flipside, Urban turnout in the rust belt was decent in 2020, but not astounding. Yes, getting four percent higher turnout in Cleveland would’ve boosted Ryan some, but it was never going to save him, given my next reason.
Second, as you’ll see on the next map, Ryan hardly over performed Biden in the cities and suburbs, especially in the more ancestrally Republican ones. Quite frankly, he didn’t get his margins high enough in the biggest counties for averaged turnout to have boosted him as much as it otherwise would have.
MAP 2: RYAN VS BIDEN MARGINS
This one’s a straightforward map comparing Biden 2020 and Ryan 2022’s margins in each county. Blue counties are where Ryan got the better margin, Red where Biden did.
MARGINS: SAME AS LAST MAP
(0-1% better than the other. . . 1-2%. . . 2-3% . . . 3-4% . . . 4-6%. . . 6-8%. . . 8%+)
Important county numbers:
Franklin (Col.): Ryan +1.24% (Ryan did 1.24% better than Biden) —
Delaware (Col. sub.): Ryan +0.53% —
Hamilton (Cin.): Ryan -0.42% —
Warren (Cin. sub): Ryan +1.73% —
Cuyahoga (Clev.): Ryan +1.60% —
Lucas (Tole.): Ryan +2.79% —
Summit (Akr.): Ryan +3.66% —
Greene (Dayt.): Ryan -0.56% —
Mahoning (Youngs.): Ryan -1.57% —
Across the board, despite doing less than two points better than Biden statewide, Ryan did better than him in almost every county, with four exceptions.
The first is Allen Co. in the northwest. This one’s a rural guy and I don’t have any real explanation for it, so I'd consider it an outlier. The second and third are Hamilton and Montgomery, homes of Cincinnati and Dayton respectively. These cities used to be very red, (Obama won Hamilton by 6 in 2012 for context, Biden got it to safe). DeWine put up enormous numbers here, so much so that I strongly suspect it weighed down Ryan significantly. The whole southwestern region went for DeWine by a landslide and his performance must have caused the ancestral republicans here to default to the GOP and vote for Vance more than it did elsewhere.
The fourth is the notorious Mahoning, home of Youngstown and the poster child for Obama-voting WWC ancestral democrats leaving the party for Trump. I really don’t know what went wrong here. It’s obvious the place is going red, but Ryan underperforming Biden in what was his own house district? It wasn’t even a regional thing; all the counties around it are blue here. It’s kind of funny because this really is ‘muh trends’ on steroids, but I still don’t have a clue what happened specifically here.
On the flip side, Ryan did very well in most rural parts of the state, putting up solid numbers in places like Appalachia and the rural rust belt. He focused much of his campaign on appealing to these voters and it showed.
One thing this map is excellent at illustrating is why Ryan did so much better among rural Ohioans than suburban and urban voters, and that is DeWine. Ryan’s ability to get the numbers he needed somewhere rested with how much DeWine would be dragging him down. When DeWine got Assad margins among swayable suburban voters because of his moderate appeal, it dragged Ryan down. When DeWine got Franklin and Cuyahoga counties down to likely, it showed in the senate race when Ryan ended up with Biden margins.
However, my theory is that a moderate Republican governor doesn’t have the same level of influence on rural voters living in rural counties that are already deep red. Being moderate isn’t going to get rural Ohioans to like you any more than just being a Republican would. DeWine didn’t seem to have the same magnetic pull on the ticket in rural counties, which allowed Ryan to narrow the margins by campaigning as a hardworking moderate democrat who can relate to the common man. It’s easier to get higher numbers somewhere where DeWine is outrunning Trump by 10, instead of 25 or more.
The more urban the county, the more DeWine outran Trump and dragged Ryan down when independent voters defaulted to the GOP and went straight ticket. The more rural and anc. Dem the county was, the more Ryan was able to play wholesome moderate dude and pick up Obama-Trump voters and make new inroads elsewhere by being there and trying.
The interesting thing is, 2024 is going to be the opposite of the midterm scenario. Trump is the biggest drag on the ticket in the suburbs, while his base appeal does wonders for him in the rural parts of the state. Assuming suburban trends hold in any capacity, Brown will have to perform better than Ryan in suburbia, while an “America-first” ticket the GOP base is more excited for has the potential to pull him down more in rural Ohio.
MAP 3: How important it is Brown improves on Ryan’s margin
This is a purely opinion based map I made categorizing each county by how important it would be for Sherrod Brown to improve on the margin Tim Ryan got. This is not exactly how important each county is to victory, but more what Brown would want from each of them if he were to win. Essentially how much work needs to be done there, margin-wise.
Categories: . . .
Dark Green: If he just gets Ryan’s margins here, he’s golden. These are mainly counties where Brown didn’t do much better than Biden did two years later, so Ryan’s slight improvement on Joe is more than enough . . .
Light Green: If Brown gets Ryan’s margin, he’ll be fine. Ideally, he’d improve on them slightly. . .
Yellow: Ryan did decently here. Brown would hope to get a percent or two higher to win comfortably, but it’s not a necessity everywhere. . .
Light Orange: Brown should be doing somewhat better than Ryan here. Winning would become very difficult if he were to get Ryan margins in most of these. . .
Orange: He should plan on improving considerably here. Many of these are ancestral democratic counties that Brown has been able to put up good numbers in while Ryan fell short of what he needed. . .
Red: You’re finished with Ryan’s margins here during a presidential election year. It should be a lot easier for Brown in Cuyahoga and Franklin without DeWine on the ballot and he needs to hold his grip on unionized places like Trumbull. . .
Maroon: If you’re putting up Ryan numbers, just throw the fucking towel in. Brown should be winning Mahoning by likely, not losing it, he should not be underperforming Biden in Cincinnati, and getting 2020 Biden numbers in rapidly blue-shifting Delaware in 2024.
As you can see Ryan pretty much got what Brown will need in most of rural Ohio, particularly in the ancestrally Republican parts of the state. Brown should hope his incumbency makes up the remainder. There are some rural counties which Ryan did perform very well in, but I know Brown can (and should) do so much better in due to his incumbency. If Ryan did eight points better than Biden in a particular county, but Brown did better by thirty in 2018, he should try and narrow Ryan’s margins here even further. These counties are mainly near the WV border.
Another thing, from old maps, we know that Ryan nearly matched Brown's numbers in the Cincinnati and Columbus suburbs, but they are also about what Biden got in them. Since these areas are quickly blue shifting, Brown should be doing better than Ryan regardless. Getting 2020 Biden/2022 Ryan numbers would likely mean Brown underperforming Biden a good amount there, which is not something I have on my 2024 Bingo card.
And again, it’s Trump at the top of the ticket instead of DeWine. Even though it’s a presidential year, there should still be less of the top-of-the-ticket drag that Ryan had to put up with in the big counties. While Brown can’t come into ancestrally Republican suburbs with the mindset of “they voted for me before, I’ll make sure most of them do it again,” Ryan proved that getting voters to ticket-split and vote for a democratic senate candidate for the first time is still possible. Biden improving in the Cin/Day/Col region by another five or so points, and Brown doing even a point or two better than that would cut into the GOP candidate’s statewide total significantly.
These suburbs are where Brown has historically had the weakest incumbency bonus (anc. reps), but also where his recent gains made up for his other losses from 2012 to 2018. The result was him winning by about the same margin both times. He’ll want to repeat this strategy to pad his losses elsewhere. A suburban voter in Warren county hopping on the Brown train for the first time means you can afford to lose another follower in Youngstown.

2023.05.31 20:51 tributetotio Some Encouragement from a Runaway

I've been away from what I guess we'd call TSCC here for a long, long time. 21 years to be exact.
I was born in Provo and grew up in American Fork. Normal Mormon family and community, the whole Utah county experience... but with the added touch of a blood-relative apostate (my biological father) who began receiving revelations, formed their own polygamist mini cult and attempted to assassinate me on God's orders for not going along with it. And yeah, I inherited mental illness - schizophrenia - from this person but luckily I have it under control with treatment and medication unlike them.
I just re-watched "Under the Banner of Heaven" on Hulu (hits a little close to home because I was literally *this* close to becoming a murder victim in a very similar way)... which made me think hmm, I wonder if there's an exmormon. Welp, here you are, and here I am.
In reading some of the posts and the day-to-day struggles of some of the members of this community, I thought I might offer some - what we refer to as "experience, strength and hope" in the AA community. So here's part of my story, and at the end I come to a realization that I think can help some people so I'm gonna take the time to put it in writing here.
I remember first getting the sense that things were not normal when I was around 11 years old. By the time I was attending American Fork High School, I fully knew that I did not believe in Mormonism and that the community around me was sick. When you add in the experience I had with my father, his revelations, the polygamy, and the attempted murder - it kind of put a different spin on things as well.
I met my first wife in driver's ed at American Fork High. She was actually a Lone Peak girl from Alpine, but half of her family was from California. As we started getting to know each other, we both basically expressed the exact same feelings about the environment around us. She was the first person I'd ever met there that felt the same way - that, essentially the community around us was sick, that things were not right, and the feeling to get the hell out of dodge asap. As we started dating and our relationship developed, we started plotting our escape. The time eventually came the summer after we graduated in '02. She had gotten accepted to college in California. My parents left town and left me a window of opportunity. We packed our bags, got in a car, and split for Los Angeles.
Southern California to me was nothing short of a big, beautiful dream land. Palm trees as far as the eye could see. Beaches next to melting-pot metropolitan cities with folks from all different religions, ethnicities, walks of life (and all with their own amazing types of cuisine to explore). We had driven down to San Diego and were staying at the Sheraton on Harbor Island when we received a call from my then-gf's father: "His (my) parents are freaking out. You gotta call them. They're threatening me with kidnapping a minor." (I was still 17.)
I remember heading to the pay phone with a handful of quarters from the front desk. I called my mom and had "the talk" which was essentially: I'm not Mormon. I'm never gonna be Mormon. I don't want to live there. Sorry, I'm staying in California.
Throughout my 21 years in California, I've certainly had my struggles. I self-medicated Schizophrenia with booze and benzos. I sold drugs and got too high on my own supply. The anger, the pure unadulterated rage I continued to feel for Utah and Mormonism and anything even loosely related (Republican ass-hats, etc.) nearly drove me blind. I've seen the inside of LA County jail multiple times among others (now there's something to experience lol). And oddly, if I had to change anything - I wouldn't... because it's all a part of who I am today. The good news is, I'm in a healthy place now. I work a normal job, have a normal life... I'm in recovery from substance abuse, and my mental illness is under control. I'm alright, for now at least. And I get to live in Sunny Southern California 😊. I visit Utah occasionally, usually during the holidays - but I still detest the place and two weeks is the literally the absolute most time I can do there before I want out and fast.
Where was I... anger. Anger is never good. Even righteous anger is a slippery slope. By all means, address what you see objectively. The Mormon church is a sham and not even a particularly good one. The whole thing is a con. Utah Mormons are some of the most gas-lighty, purely annoying people on the planet. That environment is significantly unhealthy for all involved. But, overall - these people aren't worth your anger. These people are not worth the damage you can do to yourself feeling the type of hatred I felt, the hatred that turns everything you can see red and drives you to wash down a handful of Xanax with a bottle of Cognac.
Here is the conclusion I reached when I was around 26 years old, that I wanted to offer up here as encouragement:
When I was around that age, I was contemplating getting a lawyer involved and getting my records cancelled from the Mormon church. I did all the research necessary and had an airtight plan. Then one night it hit me: These idiots are just mistaken people. Their records are meaningless, and by even paying attention I was giving them meaning. They can put my name in any book they want. They can put me in a heaven book, they can put me in a hell book - it truly does not matter. It carries literally no significance at all, let alone any cosmic significance, for them to shuffle my records in any which way. By asking them to cancel my records, I was giving their records significance - meaning. But realistically, they are 100% meaningless.
Now, am I discouraging anyone from getting their records cancelled? Absolutely not. You do you, by all means. I still hate these goddamn assholes and I certainly don't mind them getting a collective "fuck you" in any form. But two things are my overall takeaway that I hope can help someone:

Anger can be very, very destructive and needs to be kept in check when dealing with these fools, these wayward children who wander through life distracted and confused by the work of con men. Anger can be just as deadly and destructive as religion itself, and it's important not to damage yourself through any process of leaving
The church records are as meaningless as toilet paper. They have no power over you. "It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing." Sometimes to even acknowledge something gives it life, and power. I took my power back, and to hell with them

2023.05.31 20:41 LastRadiant Survey for neighboring property's tree

There's a ginormous tree growing out of a large embankment behind 1 of my units. If it falls it will certainly destroy the house and the tenant will certainly be squished if she is there when it falls. According to county gis it is clearly not on my lot. It appears to be on a city lot on the next street over or a lot owned by a church down the street.
I notified the public works and they looked at the tree and told me it is obviously dangerous but could not determine if it is on the city lot or not. They are now telling me I need to pay for a survey to determine where the tree lies or they will not do anything about it.
Who is essentially responsible for the burden of proof in these cases? Me because I am the one bringing it up and saying it's on someone's lot just not mine? I'm somewhat new to the world of surveys and insurance liabilities etc so please someone enlighten me.
South Carolina btw

2023.05.31 20:37 Whey-Men Rapid City, SD - 'A hand up, not a handout': Pennington County Sheriff rolls out jail education, job training program

submitted by Whey-Men to prisons [link] [comments]

2023.05.31 19:20 Benjaminlinus95 Let's share our most loved character and his story.

I'll start first.
Bjorn White-mane was born in the 4th era year 140 in Bruma and lived his life as a guard of the city until the great war started. He married his childhood friend at the age of 21 and together they had a daughter named Freja.
When the great war started he was called to fight against the Thalmor and as soon as he received the letter from the Emperor he kissed his wife and daughter and left for the Imperial City. He was a great soldier and brought death to many Elves during the war, but as many Nords he was deluded by the Empire when they signed the treaty and banned the worship of Talos.
When he came back home, tired and ready to spend some time with his family, he found the heads of his wife and daughter on a spike. He felt to his knees. The men he once called friends, the city guard of Bruma, came to him took his amulet of Talos while he was mourning his family and arrested him. He waited for his execution, but it never came; the Thalmor, knowing his role in the great war, wanted to keep him alive so that he could suffer for everything he has done. Bjorn spent 30 years in jail, being tortured and mocked by the Thalmor, when one day he managed to stun his torturer and escape that damn jail.
He left for Skyrim, knowing from jail rumors, that the Empire was loosing his grip on that region and hoped to find peace.
[STARTING EVENTS OF SKYRIM]
He was captured in the ambush and found himself on the cart with Ulfric Stormcloak, a man he knew from what he heard during the Great War. He escaped Helgen with Ralof, and followed his advice to go to Windhelm. Once he arrived he wasn't ready to go back and being a soldier, so he lived of hunting for a while and helped the people of Windhelm as best as he could. But deep inside, his hatred for the Empire, was growing even more since he was living among many Nords that tought the same things as he did.
He knew he was old, but he didn't want to die without a fight, so in the end he joined. Galmar never saw anything in that old man, so he used him, sending him from hold to hold trying to help people as he was known to do. But one day, since Ulfric insisted, he took him with his army to get the Jagged Crown. That is where Galmar acknowledged that he was wrong about Bjorn.
As soon as they came back, Ulfric wanted his new soldier to go to Whiterun and deliver his axe to the Jarl. There he was sent to fight a dragon and turns out he was Dragonborn!
When he came back from the Whiterun war, he said what happened to Ulfirc and following his orders he went to High Hrothgar to seek the Grey beards knowledge and become stronger. On his quest to retrieve the Horn of Windcaller he found out a group of Blades was searching for him, but found Delphine disrespectful for stealing the Horn and wanting him to show her his true nature, but in the end he went to Keynes grove with her.
The plan to infiltrate the Thalmor embassy was stupid to him, so he left her and went back to his war against the Empire in Skyrim.
When the Stormcloacks were about to take Solitude and by the time Bjorn was an Officer of the army, he thought that maybe the best way to have less casualties on the Stormcloaks side was to infiltrate the Embassy and kill as many Elves as he could.
So he did so, and Solitude felt to the Stormcloacks army. Skyrim was finally free. He didn't expect Ulfric to let him go, but he knew that what he said was true: "He was needed by the gods somewhere else".
So he went back to Delphine and went by her plans. Until she asked him to kill the Grey beards leader. But all his efforts and plans brought him to Sovngarde, where he slayed Alduin and freed Tamriel from his hunger.
He went back home to Windhelm to his two adopted children: Sofie and Blaise. But after a few days of peace the city was attacked by vampires and the threat wasn't to be taken lightly so he joined the Dawnguards and when he acknowledged Harkon's plan, he took Serana with him and started the journey to seek Auriel's Bow, and with it he destroyed every vampire he met and put an end to Harkon's madness.
Something wasn't right, he knew that this was not the end of his journey. And he was right, as soon as he came back home he found 3 masked men in his house, threatening his children with fire in their hands. He went on a rampage and killed them all. He saw a strange note, something about a man called Miraak that wanted to kill him. He was ready to go and destroy this man that almost killed his children, the only thing he cared about ever since he lost his family back in Bruma.
A new adventure was ahead of him, in the far island of Solstheim. He did everything he could to help the Raven Rock settlement, and finally found a way to meet Miraak. He was the first Dragonborn, that was unsettling for Bjorn. For the first time in many months he felt fear.
He did everything he could to stop Miraak from coming back to Tamriel. He tried to make the best decisions, but at one point he had to sell his soul to Hermaeus Mora in order to have a chance to kill this great evil that inhabites the depths of Apocrypha.
He went there fearful, but he came out victorious. But the deed to the Daedric Prince was done. He knew he could not go back. He asked for one final favor from him, to go back home and stay one day with his kids. The Prince accepted.
He spent his last day in Tamriel happy, playing with his kids and reading books of adventure with them. But time was running fast. So he went to the docks of Windhelm, kissed his children on the forehead and sailed once more to Solstheim.
Once there he went in the woods, read the black book and traveled to Apocrypha, his new jail.
Nirn never heard his name again, he simply disappeared the people of Tamriel said, but the world was surely reshaped by his actions.
Sorry it this was a veeeery long post, but I felt like it was a cool story to tell, and I would like to read yours now.
Thanks for going through this! ❤️

Summary:
I-9: LIFT
POV: Lift, Wyndle

We are about to rob the Bronze Palace of the Azish with teenager Lift, her "Voidbringer" spren, Wyndle, and a gang of six others, while the Council is distracted in picking a new leader-Prime Aqasix.
Lift is being stalked by a man in black- "Darkness" (yes, that killer is back). He is: Azish, dead eyes, white crescent mark on cheek, black uniform, silver buttons, silver collar, gloves up to forearms, has a Shardblade and has minions and an axehound-like creature that can suck in Stormlight and is not "above the law" and has all the paperwork and works in the name of "justice".
Wyndle is a plant-like spren, who can grow vines, bloom from seeds and is between worlds and denies being a Voidbringer. He was assigned to Lift because "The Ring said we should choose you. 'She [Lift] has been visited by the Old Magic...Our mother has blessed her...She will be young, and we can mold her". He tells her she has the ability to manipulate friction-what Lift terms her "awesomeness"- and to grow and also regrow and can be an "Edgedancer".
We learn Lift can power herself through food, and it's her heist of choice, as well as spheres. And she can partially enter the Cognitive Realm to "touch" spren and process food into Stormlight.
The other thieves separate to thieve things and Lift is left with "Gaw", a young nephew of one of the thieves. She goes for stealing food and he follows her-and not just any food but the Prime's!
Meanwhile, at the banquet, we learn the council isn't trying very hard to pick a successor.
Someone defaced a painting with all the Heralds---
As she sneaks into the banquet and is about to steal food, her nemesis arrives and snatches her. She temporarily escapes until she doesn't but a temporary distraction by the Vizier allows her to eat part of a roll. The others are being rounded up and she manages to get her awesomeness back and escapes until she realizes they have Gaw and she calls the guard's bluff only to have him kill Gaw in front of her.
Lift gets away but then, because someone has to care, goes back to Gaw's body, remembering what Wyndle said she could do- "Regrow". She states: "I will remember those who have been forgotten" and reanimates Gaw back to life. Lift is an Edgedancer, and gets a pardon for her crime by Gaw, the new Prime Aqasix. Darkness backs off; praises "Yaezir, Herald of Kings". He [Yaezir] drools.

I-10: Szeth
POV: Szeth

Szeth is haunted by the souls of those he killed. He is in Urithiru, in the sun. A holy place where he can walk on stones. We learn he was here before when first exiled. He is thinking of Kaladin's abilities.
We learn he was exiled for raising a false alarm that the Voildbringers are coming back. He contemplates the fact that he might have been right and the Shamanate wrong in exiling him. He might have killed all these people for no reason.
He is on a mission to get answers. We learn there is village that leaves spheres out as an offering to him.

I-11: New Rythms
POV: Eshonai and the Parshendi

Eshonai is fifteen days into her new "Stormform". It's making her different and scaring some of the other forms. We learn she sings of "Rage" and other negative song. Her sister and she are at odds, trying to get control. Venli didn't tell her what would happen although she perhaps knew more.
The screaming she hears is "Peaceform".
There are only two Storms left before "Weeping" time, and Eshonai wants to convince the Five to let everyone take "Stormform". The first storm that passed gave Eshonai her powers and the second storm gave the same form to 200 new soldiers and her sister, Venli, and her scholars.
The Five are skeptical about transforming everyone. They question her talks with the Alethi and Eshonai lies about what the conversation was about. The dullform member resists her plan.
Eshonai bypasses the Five and makes a public announcement and demonstration of needing to take "Stormform" and willing to teach it to everyone.
She rounds up those who don't want it, using her old soldiers, who also doubt her new form. Venli tells her they have to kill the dissenters.
As she is about to take over the city, with 20,000 non-warriors and call on "Rhythm of Descruction", she learns the non-group escaped into the chasms, including her soldiers. She threatens Venli publicly before her speech.

Part IV: THE APPROACH
Chapter 59: Fleet
"I'll address this letter to my 'old friend', as I have no idea what name you're using currently"
POV: Kaladin

Kaladin is in jail; conditions are decent, but he feels trapped. He considers sucking in Stormlight from the lighting. Syl questions what he would do after escaping.
Kaladin goes on a rant against Elhokar that depresses Syl.
Wit (!) comes for a musical visit and sings to him of Fleet's race against the wind. Fleet dies but reaches glory in his attempt. He leaves him with a lesson to ponder.

Mosaic of Stormseat
Chapter 60: Veil Walks
"Have you given up on the gemstone, now that it is dead? And you no longer hide behind the name of your old master? I am told that in your current incarnation you've take a name that references what you presume to be one of your virtues"
POV: Shallan

Shallan is working on her notes, based on the maps in Amaram's room. She is looking for the capital of Natanatan, Stormseat, which she, Amaram and Jasnah believe to be on the Shattered Plains. Furthermore, she believes there are 10 routes from 10 kingdoms, including a path to Urithiru using the Oathgates. She discusses this with Pattern.
Shallan plants a quote to interest Sebarial into looking into the Shattered Plains, just in case the Adolin plan doesn't work while doing his books.
Navani still won't meet with her.
Pattern is learning dirty jokes and sarcasm. He also prompts her to admit the truth about what they did, what he can do, in order to prepare for the Everstorm. Shallan cries in recalling the past, which Pattern calls a "deep lie" she must shed to have her abilities.
Shallan practices her skills, creating Veil and trying to add sound. Instead, she learns Pattern can hold Stormlight and animate her illusion and hide inside it.

Chapter 61: Obedience
POV: Shallan- 1 and 1/2 years ago flashback

Shallan tries to be perfect so her father wouldn't be violent. However, he takes things out on others regardless. She gives humor and stories to her brothers.
A marble deposit and a certain shrewdness have changed their family fortune.
Their father forbids Balat from marrying his sweetheart, kills his axe hound puppies to prove a point but is enraged when Nan Balat mentions he met with Helaran, who is back. Balat has a plan to escape with his girlfriend and Shallan, if she will do it. She holds back.
Their father has new guards and Shallan overhears him plotting Helaran's assassination. His second wife also intervenes to stop him and they have a fight.

Chapter 62: The One Who Kiled Promises
"This is, I suspect, a little like a skunk naming itself for its stench"
POV: Kaladin

Kaladin is depressed. He thinks back on Moash's grandparents, who died in jail waiting for a trial.
Syl mentions there was a "Cryptic" at the fight, which she described as "revolting" but not evil. She thinks that soon there will another Surgebinder like him. He suspects it might be Adolin but is happy he won't be the only one.
Dalinar comes for a visit and they chat about the silversmiths in Kholinar (Moash's grandparents) and Roshone, who influenced a young Elhokar into making bad decisions. Roshone was also a liegeman to Sadeas. He was exiled when Dalinar returned.
Dalinar urges Kaladin to look beyond Elhokar's weakness and be extra loyal in his protection. He reveals he followed his instinct in selecting Kaladin and his men and the way to change the social position of darkeyes is to effect change through example.
The conversation leads Kaladin to conclude that Elhokar is an infected limb and must be cut off.

Chapter 63: A Burning World
"Now, look what you've made me say. You've always been able to bring out the most extreme in me, old friend. And I do still name you a friend, for all that you weary me"
POV: Shallan

Flirting with Adolin, while staking out a spot the Ghostbloods directed her to, Shallan uses her image of Veil and a tree and Pattern and realizes she is being watched. She sends Pattern to find out who.
It turns out to be the scary lady with the mask from the Ghostblood meeting. Shallan sends Pattern out as a decoy Veil and then, ambushes Iyatil, who is surprised. We learn Mraize is Iyatil's student!
The Ghostbloods want to know about a person newly arrived in Dalinar's camp. They are worried about Dalinar's interactions with Amaram and this third party.
Shallan takes Iyatil on her mission, secretly using her own actual appearance to gain entry as Adolin's fiancée, and then using Iyatil to distract the ardents while she gains entry to the room holding the mystery person.
We learn the mystery person is dark skinned like a Makabaki, ragged hair and a powerful build. She copies down his message about the Desolation coming soon, which he recites in perfect Alethi and calls himself Talenel'Elin or Stonesinew.
He freaks out when Shallan takes some Stormlight to put on her illusion and attacks her, calling her one of "Ishar's Knights" and Shallan calls her Shardblade but doesn't need it. Her mother's soul comes up.
As she tries to escape (as herself), she runs into a crowd that includes Amaram.

2005 - Trial Day 63
Jurors in the Michael Jackson trial had the day off as lawyers wrangled over the instructions they were to be given for their deliberations.
Judge Melville announced that closing arguments would begin Thursday morning (in 2 days), while jurors would receive the instructions the afternoon before.
Jackson was not present in court as lawyers hammered out the jurors written instructions. Spokesperson Raymone Bain said he "is going through a lot of emotions right now -- relief that it's over, but very nervous. Because, of course you know, a very major decision is going to be made within the next several days."
In a move expected to favor prosecutors, Judge Melville said he would reduce the alcohol charge from a felony to a misdemeanor. The change in the charge came at the request of prosecutors and was met with objections from the singers defense.
Prosecutors allege that Jackson supplied alcohol to his accuser and younger brother. Legal experts say the misdemeanor charge will be easier to prove, but would carry a lesser sentence, most likely a fine or a short term in county jail. The felony charge alone would have carried a 2- 4 year sentence in state prison.
The Judge will also instruct the jury not to take the Living with Michael Jackson documentary for the truth of what is said except for certain identified passages.
"The rest is considered hearsay and you can only consider that it aired and its impact if any on Mr. Jackson," said Judge Melville. He did not specify which passages were being referred to.
Lawyers also argued about how jurors should determine the credibility of witnesses and how they should consider the past allegations against Jackson.
The Judge said jurors would be told to consider the alleged past acts only if they "tend to show [Jacksons] intent" with regard to the current charges against him.
The approved jury instructions read: "Evidence has been introduced for the purpose of showing the defendant committed crimes other than those for which he is on trial," the approved instructions read. "This evidence, if believed, may be considered by you only for the limited purpose of deciding if it tends to show a characteristic plan or scheme to commit acts."
Judge Melville will tell jurors that they are entitled to ignore the testimony of witnesses who lied purposefully, but said they were not required to do so if they felt the witnesses were truthful in other regards.
Today's arguments from lawyers went on for hours, prompting defense attorney Robert Sanger to say: "Your honor, if we had televised today's proceedings we could have deterred an entire generation of kids from going to law school."
Later, during a discussion of an instruction to jurors not to bring cell phones into deliberations, Sanger quipped, "That replaced the old one that had to do with bringing Ouija boards in."
The absence of both Mesereau and prosecutor Ron Zonen has led to speculation that the two attorneys are working on their closing arguments for Thursday.

2013 - Jackson v AEG Trial Day 21
Court is a half day today between the hours of 9 AM - 1 PM.
Katherine and Rebbie Jackson are at court.
Paul Gongaware
AEG Cross

Putnam asked Gongaware if he had any understanding as to why Michael was taking painkillers. "Before the 3rd leg of the Dangerous tour started, he had scalp surgery, hit nerve or something it was very painful; was treated for that .When he did the Pepsi commercial, his hair was burn at the top," Gongaware explained, saying they did surgery so hair would look natural. "I didn't know it was an addiction"

Gongaware said & that he learned MJ had drug problems after Mexico City.
Gongaware did a Rod Stewart tour in North America after Dangerous tour. He next worked with Michael in the HIStory tour in 1996/97
Gongaware said he did not have a general concern with Michael having a drug addiction. After shows ended in Hawaii, Michael had lost $27 million, was in debt $11 million to lighting and sound, Gongaware testified. He switched managers to fix things in the second half of the tour, Gongaware explained. Gongaware said he had to cut lots of expenses. They wanted to give Michael the same show, but he said there was so much excess to be trimmed. Second half of the tour, Gongaware was the tour executive and he worked directly for Michael. It netted $14 million, $11 million paid vendors. We got the tour to break even, Gongaware testified, saying he worked closely with Jackson on the second half of the tour

Putnam: "Was there an ongoing concern Mr. Jackson was having problems with painkillers during the HIStory tour?"
Gongaware: "No, not at all"

Gongaware said he didn't see anything that would suggest Michael was addicted to painkillers. He testified that Michael didn't have a doctor traveling with him on the second half of the tour and there was no tour doctor with the tour.

Putnam: "How was Michael on the HIStory tour?"
Gongaware: "Great! He was sensational!"

Gongaware said MJ only missed one show on HIStory tour when Princess Diana died. "He went to bed, knew about the accident.". Michael was told Diana was going to be okay and next morning he learned she died, Gongaware described. "That affected him greatly." Gongaware said he missed shows in Dangerous tour but not in HIStory tour. Putnam asked if there were signs MJ was using painkillers during HIStory tour. "No indication at all. I didn't think he was," Gongaware said. He said he would certainly notice if there was any problem during that tour.
Gongaware said HIStory tour was pretty smooth. It ended in 1997. Right after, Gongaware said Michael called him and asked him to work for him. "He liked my work, he liked what I did," Gongaware said, adding that Michael wanted him to be his business manager. Gongaware said he didn't accept the offer and decided to go out on his own to promote concerts. He was tempted, Gongaware said, but he had lined up what he wanted to do. He worked with Yani next.
AEG defense attorney Marvin Putnam then asked Gongaware to describe the founding of his company, and its purchase by AEG. Gongaware had co-founded a new version of a company called Concerts West. Gongaware and his partner, John Meglen, created Concerts West in the late 90s. Concerts West started out with concerts of Andrea Bocceli, Mariah Carrey, Eagles and Millennium at Staples Center. AEG acquired the assets of Concerts West around 2000, Gongaware said, and Concerts West became AEG Live. Randy Phillips is AEG's CEO.Gongaware said he made a deal that requires him to work only half time starting this year
Putnam then asked Gongaware about plaintiff's contention that AEG was desperate for This Is It because it wanted to pass rival Live Nation. "It's so much bigger", AEG Live exec Paul Gongaware said of Live Nation. "It is so much more complicated"; He said that Live Nation has to find artists to fill the many venues it owns, and that AEG Live doesn't have that issue. Gongaware said AEG Live is the second largest concert promoter company. Live Nation is the first. "Our philosophy is different," Gongaware said, adding they choose what they want to do, whereas Live Nation has to meet their quota.

Putnam: "Would you like to be number 1?"
Gongaware: "No. It's so much bigger, it gets so much more complex. I'm happy being a good number 2"

Next time Gongaware worked with Michael was on the This Is It tour. Peter Lopez, Michael's attorney, called Gongaware's partner in 2007, asked to meet. From 1997 to 2009, MJ did not do any touring, only a couple of shows. Gongaware said he went to Vegas to meet with Michael in 2007. The meeting was to discuss how AEG did tours, didn't talk about him touring. They met again in 2008, also in Vegas. "Paul Gongaware! I knew that if you came, things were going to be ok," Michael said about him. Gongaware said Jackson remembered him and told him regarding the HIStory tour, "Whenever I saw you, I knew things were going to be OK"
Putnam asked about Gongaware's use of the term 'Mikey' to describe Jackson. Gongaware said he used it with Jackson. He described Jackson as getting in playful moods, and that's when he would call him Mikey; Said he wasn't mocking him. "Mikey was not meant as an insult", Gongaware said.

Putnam: "Did he seem thin in 07?"
Gongaware: "Yes, he was always thin"
Putnam: "Did he seem to have a problem with painkillers?"
Gongaware: "No"
Putnam:"Did he seem to be under the influence?"
Gongaware : "No"

Gongaware said Michael was alert, engaged, interested in what was going on in the meeting in 2007. He wanted to do a King Tut mini-movie. The next meeting with Michael was in NY. Gongaware didn't remember what they discussed. Sometime in 08, they began discussion of Michael going back on tour. Dr. Tohme, Michael's manager, approached AEG. Randy Phillips was primarily the one involved in the discussions with Dr. Tohme and Peter Lopez regarding the comeback tour. The meeting in 2008 began with discussion of a possible MJ exhibit at the Hilton in Las Vegas.
Colony Capital is an investment company that bought the note of Neverland, Gongaware said. By 'note' he meant the 'mortgage'. "They (Colony) were trying to figure out what to do with Neverland"
Gongaware talked about being at Michael's house at Carolwood when the singer signed the contract with AEG for the This Is It tour. "Michael read everything in the contract", Gongaware said. He remembered Michael being engaged, alert and paying attention. "He was good.I felt great about it," Gongaware said. "It was a Michael Jackson tour, it was a great thing." Gongaware said he watched Michael pretty carefully in the meetings, he knew Michael had went to rehab, but he didn't see any signs of drug problems.
Gongaware said he was aware of the physical exam done on Jackson after the signing for the tour.Email on 2/11/09 from Bob Taylor to Gongaware:

Thanks Paul. I now have the medical and blood reports. Looks good. I now need more info of what is available. This will help with the presentation to the insurers. I would like to offer insurers a medical update say every 21 days.

Response from Gongaware:

I'm not ready to put anything in writing.

Gongaware said it was because he didn't have the answers. Gongaware said he did not have concerns with Michael abusing prescription drugs. "It just confirmed what I believed, that he was fine. He wasn't doing any drugs," Gongaware said about the results of Michael's physical exam. A February 2009 email between him and the insurance broker showed that insurers wanted med checkups on Jackson every 21 days. The broker also wanted details on the concert set, dates, and other details that Gongaware said weren't decided on yet. "The back to back shows WILL be a problem", the broker wrote Gongaware. Suggested adding them in after Jackson started performing shows.
AEG produced/promoted the This Is It I tour. "We needed to front all the money," Gongaware said. "He didn't have the money, so he needed us to do it." Tohme, Michael's manager, told AEG about needing the money. Gongaware said Tohme emphasized several times that Michael needed to make money. Gongaware said Michael and Ortega figured out the creative elements they wanted and Gongaware had to figure out how to make them happen. Gongaware said the initial phase of rehearsal was done at Center Staging in Burbank, but venue didn't have room for production elements. They moved rehearsals to The Forum, which didn't have a high ceiling to hang the lights. Then they moved to Staples Center.
After the morning break, Gongaware said Michael chose This Is It as the name because it was going to be his last. Gongaware:

"You never know what kind of business a tour will do. We had no idea the demand, we wanted to make sure it was successful. Initially, they had 31 shows scheduled"

Gongaware said Prince had done 21 shows at the O2 arena, and Michael wanted to do 10 more. "You didn't know what the ticket sales would be," Gongaware said. So they announced only 10 shows to test the waters. "Demand was there obviously in the presale," Gongaware said. He talked to Tohme, asked for more than 50 shows. Tohme said Michael would do 50.
On March 5, 2009, Michael held a press conference in front of O2 arena and announced the comeback tour. Gongaware was present. Michael was not on time, late by a couple of hours. Gongaware said it didn't surprise him since Michael didn't like to do those things (press conferences) "His schedules don't always run like clockwork", said Gongaware, who was a little annoyed by it but not surprised. "Michael came up to me, gave me a big hug, whispered in my ear 'make sure the Teleprompter has big words, I don't have my glasses'" Gongaware said.

Putnam: "Did he seem inebriated?"
Gongaware: "No"
Putnam: "Drunk?"
Gongaware:"No"
Putnam: "Smelled like alcohol?"
Gongaware: "No"

Gongaware thought the press conference was great. "The reaction of the press was really good, I think people liked he was returning." Gongaware said they asked people to register on a website and only people registered could get into the presale to purchase tickets. He said that based on the response, they knew the tour was going to be a major success
"He was good," the AEG executive testified. "I think he was excited"
One day after that, Gongaware said Michael called him to discuss the tour. He said Michael chose Kenny Ortega to direct the show. "Michael liked special effects", Gongaware said. He put together a presentation for Michael with the latest effects and made him promise he would show up. Demonstration was on 3/16/09 at Sony Studios. It had 3D on LED that was never done before, pyro and new type of flame. Putnam showed a clip of the This Is It documentary where there are the pyro effects that were going to be used. "He loved it," Gongaware said, adding Michael didn't seem to be bothered with pyro usage. Gongaware said there was a pretty cool water fountain effect shown and not used. "It was messy," he described. "He was really engaged, as he saw all the effects he got really excited." Gongaware said he had no concern that Michael had drug problems, didn't seem slow or lethargic in March of 2009. A meeting was scheduled for March 17, 09. Gongaware emailed Michael's assistant that only Michael and Kenny Ortega should be in that meeting. "They were the creative forces and needed to find the show's path before including everyone else", Gongaware explained
Regarding Kenny Ortega watching out for Michael's health, Gongaware said no one at AEG asked him to do that. Gongaware thought Ortega watched out because they were friends and worked together.
Gongaware will join The Rolling Stones tour this weekend, but will return on Monday to resume testifying

Chicago Residents Flee to Door County After Deadliest Memorial Day Weekend In 8 Years Despite Hundreds Of Yellow-Vested 'Peacekeepers' In Streets WARNING - VIDEO OF ROBBERY

This Memorial Day weekend in Chicago was the deadliest the Democrat-run and crime-plagued city has seen in eight years, the Chicago Sun-Times has reported Tuesday.

One killing even happened close to Mayor Brandon Johnson's own residence. Going back to Friday evening, "at least 11 people had been killed and another 46 wounded since early Friday evening" resulting in a death toll that was the "highest since 2015, when 12 people were killed," according to the report. This marks 57 total casualties across the city from either shootings or knifings.

The newspaper records that the prior high came in 2016: "The total number shot, however, was still far below the 71 people wounded by gunfire over the 2016 holiday weekend," it notes.

Last year's Memorial Day weekend had marked a 5-year high. For the 2022 holiday weekend, 51 people total had ben reported shot, including 9 killed.

The eight-year high in deaths occurred despite that ahead of the weekend community activists had planned peace marches. The idea was that yellow-vested 'peacekeepers' would fan out and have a prominent presence in "hot spots" where violence is frequent in the south and west sides of the city. The marches and activism appeared to have little effect.

The initial Friday homicides reportedly happened within a few hours of each other, and included shootings and stabbings.

As for violent incidents which happened near the mayor's home, the Sun-Times details:

The homicide near the mayor’s Austin neighborhood home was discovered just after midnight Saturday in the 5700 block of West Chicago Avenue. A female, whose age was unknown, was stabbed to death and left in a nearby alley. And Monday evening, a shooting was reported about five blocks from the mayor’s home. A man, 36, was shot near the street around 7 p.m. in the 700 block of North Pine Avenue. He was hospitalized in good condition.

As for the peacekeeping initiative, it is actually part of a formal initiative which has state funding, and has included 500 people having been hired and undergone training in conflict de-escalation. Last week into the weekend they had a presence in 102 “hot spots” in 14 Chicago communities.

However, judging by the tragic weekend statistics - which not only matched but surpassed similar deadly weekends - there appears to have been a somewhat fruitless exercise in optics, at least for the warm holiday weekend. But other metrics suggest and the program leaders themselves say that in some locales the program has been effective.

So how many people from Chicago are moving to Door County?
I guess the real question is whether people moving from Chicago to Door County will still vote for the same failed woke policies that made that city a 3rd world hell-scape.
Time will tell...

Just two years after his exoneration, he was arrested and charged with murder in what appears to be a gross miscarriage of justice.

It tells the story of Tilikum, a captive killer whale who was involved in the deaths of several trainers, and explores the impact that captivity has on the animals' mental and physical wellbeing.

This thought-provoking film is a must-watch for anyone interested in animal welfare and environmental issues.

6. The Keepers

The Keepers is a gripping exploration of the unsolved murder of Sister Cathy Cesnik, a beloved Catholic nun and high school teacher in Baltimore.

By the end of this gripping seven-part series, viewers will have gained a deeper understanding of what drives people to follow charismatic leaders, and the potentially devastating consequences that can follow.

9. 13th

13th is a powerful exploration of the American criminal justice system and how it perpetuates systemic racism. Directed by Ava DuVernay, the film takes its name from the 13th Amendment to the US Constitution, which abolished slavery and involuntary servitude except as a punishment for a crime. The documentary traces the ways in which this loophole has been exploited in order to create a new system of racial control, with black Americans disproportionately impacted by mass incarceration, police violence, and the prison-industrial complex. Featuring interviews with a diverse array of activists, scholars, and politicians, 13th is a vital and urgent call to action for anyone concerned about social justice, human rights, and equal protection under the law.

2023.05.31 07:16 I_am_a_pan_fear_me Why I hate the fucking police

To give you context I live in some of the shittier parts of Georgia. And my family is full of addicts and ex addicts. I'm sure you already know how the police feel about addicts. But anyway, I've been through 2 police raids. 1 when I was about 4 or 5. That one was because someone had used my moms ip to upload cp, the cops had been watching us for a month. Nothing even remotely suspicious, then when they raided our house. They shattered the door and the door frame. They held guns to my naked mother who had just fallen asleep. They held a gun to my step-moms head while they tore their room apart. And they pretty much destroyed our house, they didn't find shit. Aside from the drugs my moms had in the house. Which the cops laid out on their bed. Because they couldn't arrest them for any of it.
Now the 2nd time was a case of police brutality, we were living with my grandmother because she was dealing with real bad depression. Well she pissed off the guy she paid to mow her lawn, by cussing him out for not mowing the lawn while the septic tank was leaking. Well he was also a cop, and was able to call in a few favors. And basically had us pinned as the "biggest drug den in Henry County" they get a warrent. And they pull up with an entire swat team. They three flashbangs into our backyard with a 9 ft tall privacy fence because our dogs were barking. They threw flashbangs into our neighbors yard, which honestly fuck him, he killed our cat.
They busted open the door, they threw my disabled grandmother to the ground. Kicked my 15 yr old aunts knees put from under her and caused her to hit her head on the corner of a desk. They zip tied all the kids, tore our house apart again. They found a vault my step-mom had of pills she was given to keep safe by my grandmother. There were also some pills my Nana had given her for tooth pains. All of those were felony charges, 7 to be exact. That was the only thing they found, when my mom and step-mom got home. The cops threw her into the side of the car hard enough to leave a bruise and dent in the car. I was 6 then, the cops weren't allowed to do any of that. The warrant they had only allowed them to search and ask questions.
Now that we've covered my past experiences with cops, let's get into the reason i hate those pieces of shit. Like i said before my family is full of ex-addicts. Well my dad, I never knew him and that was my choice. Because all I knew is that he was constantly in jail and on drugs. I will always regret the fact that I never gave him a chance. Because he was constantly trying to get clean. He was always going to rehab, constantly on detox all of that. His issue was the people he was around didn't want to quit and didn't want him to quit. So he was constantly relapsing. Well 3 years ago now, he was 3 months clean. He'd been getting clean with some girl I don't remember her name. But they were getting clean together, well one day some fuck ass pos picks this girl up. And he takes her back to his place, obviously the dude is a well known piece of shit, or as my mom would say, grade A fuck nigga. So when my dad found out, he starts walking to this dude's place to beat his ass. Well some dumbass kid ends up hitting him with his car. And I don't blame the kid for anything we all make mistakes.
But the kid doesn't call the cops immediately he calls his granddad. His grandad was the ex commissioner I think I don't remember I just know he used to be hot shit with the cops. Well his granddad tells the kid he'll handle it and to just drive off. Granddad calls the cops out there and when they find my dad's body, they mark it as being a fucking bumper. My dad's body wasn't officially found until hours after the cops had been called. They tried to cover up his death. Then in the county newspaper the editor his name is Will Davis if you want to look him up. Wrote about my dad, calling him a druggie and lying about how my dad got hit. That piece of shit said my dad was sitting in the middle of the street when he got hit. My mom was able to sue the police department for covering up my dad's death she won the case. But everytime I think about that shit it pisses me off. Because to give you an example of how good of a person my dad was. When he died he didn't have shoes because he'd given his only pair to someone who'd had theirs stolen. I never knew him but I do know he was a good person.

2023.05.31 06:53 Miserable_Luck_9103 Am I the asshole for wanting my step dad to go to jail?

I'd like to start this off saying that I am a female age 16 and my mother is 40 and her husband we'll call him "J" is 37. Now they have not officially divorced bur are in the process of it. I'm going to try my best to make this short but this is a few years worth of events. So 5 years ago my mom started dating "J" and all was going well until we bought an apartment for him to move in with us 3 years ago. "J" is a retired Navy Corman and ex MMA fighter and has severe anger issues and I'm like 99% sure he has PTSD but he refuses to acknowledge anything. Things were fine at first but I come from a large family history of mental health disorders and haven't had the best upbringing. My mom always tried her best but the issue was my dad but that's not important right now. So my mom suffers from anxiety, depression, PTSD, ocd, and adhd but the last two aren't super important. I was diagnosed with adhd young but never medicated and then was diagnosed with anxiety and depression in 5th grade and more recently Bi-polar. My grandmother from my moms side killed herself when I was in 4th grade and that's around when I started to get worse. Now J knew this but I don't think he was really prepared for how badly it effected our life. He became very mentally abusive towards me and my mother only ever stepped in when he started getting physical. In 8th grade I attempted to overdose and barely survived but was in the hospital for a month before being transferred to another mental facility for another month. Being there did truly help and while I still struggle I know how to manage it and set boundaries. When I got out of the hospital is where things went bad. I thought everything was ok for the first couple of months but things started going down hill again due to stuff with my dad which I had found out right before I overdosed that he's not even my real dad so I suffered his abuse for years thinking that he just didn't want me and there was something wrong with me to make my dad treat me like that. I started to get stressed and was grounded for my grades and didn't have my phone. Now its important to mention that in 3rd grade my older cousins showed me porn and so I knew all about sexual stuff by then. Now J came into my room one day while mom was at work and said that he'd noticed I'd been stressed and that he'd give me his phone to watch porn because the endorphins would be good for me(I was in 8th grade at this point). So that continued for until I got my phone back but he also around that time would offer me massages because I have scoliosis and get migraines so back and scalp massages would help with that. After that he told me he'd read something online that would help with my lower back pain because that's where it was the worst. I agreed and that's when the gluten massages started. Now they did actually help the pain so I didn't really think much of it but then he started doing my upper thighs and breasts. Now looking back I can tell that these were red flags but I didn't see it in the moment because I'd never had a good father figure and thought that it was normal. He said that i couldn't tell mom and that felt off so I did tell her and they got into a huge fight. As a side note I'd like to add that I hate yelling and fighting of any kind fue to previous trauma. Now it still countued after that but i didn't say anything to my mom again because hed say things like "you dont want to cause another fight like that again since someone could get hurt and we dont want that" or "you dont want to tear the family apart do you?". Now fast forward all that was still happening but at this point I was a freshman and my mom had her Bachelorette party that I got to go to since I was a bridesmaid. I was allowed alcohol but was responsible and the moment I started feeling off I stopped and drank wateate carbs for the rest of the night. Now after that J started giving me alcohol at home and buying some specifically for me. Towards the end of Freshman year he started brushing his hand between my legs but nothing more and I wrote them off as accidents. This continued to get worse when he put his hand down my pants and stroked me over my underwear the entire time saying those same phrases as before. Now halfway through my sophomore year we had to move for our safety because of my "dad". J and my mom were married at this point and so we moved out to a small town were my dad hopefully wouldn't find us. Now here's when things started getting bad. Within a week of us moving here he started going underneath my underwear and about a month in he started specifically trying to "turn me on" I was uncomfortable but he continued to remind me how heart broken my mom would be so I didn't say anything. Now came what I refer to as hell week; he started putting his fingers inside of me and trying to bring me to orgasm but before that point I always made an excuse to leave. Now I was able to hold him off from anything more down there with the excuse of my period but her continued to touch my chest. He then asked if I'd be willing to "repay the favor" like anything he did was considered a favor and not unwanted. This is when I broke I couldn't focus in school and got sent to the office who then sent me to my school counselor and I broke down and told her everything. I had to make an official report to cps and the sheriff of our city and I just kinda became numb. When I told my mom she cried and I felt horrible but she immediately threw him out. He said I was lying for weeks before my mom (who was still talking to him everyday) said that in order to move forward we needed the truth and he finally admitted it. Now my mom is asking if I can ever forgive him because she's not ready to give up her vows even though the thought of him touching her literally makes her throw up. She's trying to justify and give reason to his actions by saying he has untreated PTSD and how he just held on too tight after my overdose. My brother cried more than he didn't until cps said he could still talk to J. We still rely on him though because we only had one vehicle which was his truck so he has to bring groceries every week and without him depositing his checks to the joint account we'd be thrown out if our house. He has all the power still and it honestly makes me sick to think about. But I've completely torn my family apart and he keeps saying how he wants to rectify with me through therapy and how he doesn't want to loose his family. At the beginning I said I didn't want him to go to jail just to be away from me but as I've come to terms with it more I think it would be better because if he just gets off the hook what keeps him from doing it again? When I said that to my mom she freaked out and got mad at me because hed probably get beaten since even other criminals don't take kindly to molestation of a "child". She thinks I'm wrong to want to punish him and said I'm selfish so am I the asshole? I didn't think I was but my mom has for the most part always supported me so if she thinks that then I feel like she may be right. I'm not sure honestly.
I apologize for any spelling or grammar mistakes it's hard for me to just type this and I'm shaking so badly I'm surprised I haven't dropped my phone.

ARCA

Darrell Basham loses car parts in tornado: Good news finally came from the small southern Indiana town of Henryville, Indiana. The massive tornado that took direct aim on the downtown area today spared the life of longtime ARCA competitor Darrell Basham and his family. However, much of what Basham didn't lose in a devastating garage/shop fire in November of 2010, was lost today in downtown Henryville. "My old building, which was my main big shop - it's gone, with everything in it. And we had a bunch of stuff in it that we use to go racing. We walked through earlier. There were headers over here, a piece of racecar over there. Lost all my parts. Maybe someone's trying to tell me something; I just don't know. This could be the end of the line for Darrell Basham Racing; we just don't know. We're okay though, but what a mess. "We had a bunch of motor parts; it's all gone. General parts we use all the time - headers, rims. A-frames, trailing arms. Destroyed everything I had down there - it's all gone. Fortunately I had my cars at the house shop, which the tornado missed. (ARCARacing.com) (03-02-12)
ARCA bans driver cell phone use during competition: The ARCA Racing Series has banned drivers from using cell phones during competition. A bulletin was sent out to teams yesterday stating that "Cars and/or drivers will not be permitted to carry cell phones during competition." This rule has been established after Brad Keselowski's cell phone use during a red flag in NASCAR Sprint Cup's Daytona 500. (03-06-12)
DnF Enterprises owner Mario Gosselin arrested: A race car driver and owner of the Lake Wales-based DnF Enterprises [that fielded a car for Fain Skinner in the 2012 Mobil 1 200 at Daytona] was among those arrested last week during a sex sting, the Polk County Sheriff's Office said. Mario Gosselin, 40, of Lake Wales, was arrested Saturday and charged with soliciting prostitution, deputies said. The Sheriff's Office conducted a sex sting and said Gosselin was among more than 40 people who responded to online advertisements for sex. Once the people met with undercover detectives, they were arrested and booked into the Polk County Jail. Gosselin told deputies he was a self-employed mechanic. Gosselin bonded out of the Polk County Jail on $500 bail, according to jail records. (TheLedger.com) (03-14-12)

Trucks
Little Texas to hold concert at North Wilkesboro on April 14: Little Texas, best known for their hits “God Blessed Texas”, “What Might Have Been” and “Kick A Little”, will be at North Wilkesboro on Saturday, April 14, 2012 in advance of the NASCAR Philips Truck Series race on April 15. Little Texas will be performing a concert for race fans at North Wilkesboro on April 14. The band will also be performing the National Anthem before the April 15 running of the NASCAR Philips Truck Series Farmers Insurance 200.

Trucks to Road America in 2013? Montreal also hoping to be in the mix: NASCAR is expected to announce soon that the Camping World Truck Series will return to road-course racing in the 2013 season and that is great news for Canada’s Circuit Gilles Villeneuve. A source close to Camping World loop told the Toronto Sun that negotiations are all but complete to add a race at Road America in Elkhart Lake, Wis., for next season. That same source also said NASCAR would most certainly add a second road course so that it would make economic sense for the truck teams. “Teams would have to construct purpose built trucks for Road America so to keep those costs in line a second race just makes sense.” A truck race at CTMS–formerly Mosport–would be a prefect fit for the track’s new owners. Ron Fellows–and his partners Alan Boughton and Carlo Fidani–have been actively pursuing a top NASCAR touring series race. “I was on the phone June 1 (the day the group announced it had purchased the legendary Ontario track) with NASCAR officials telling them we wanted a race,” Fellows said in a phone interview from Toronto. “And we are continuing to seek a race at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve.” It will be at least mid to late summer before NASCAR bosses release their 2013 schedules but it is now a good bet that there will be two truck races turning left and right next season. Fellows said that the addition of Montreal–a major NASCAR partner–as the name sponsor at CTMS will boost the track chances at getting the nod for a race.(TorontoSun.com)(3-11-2012)
NPTS drivers meeting to be open to fans at North Wilkesboro: In addition to 200 laps of great racing, your ticket to the Farmer's Insurance 200 will also get you up close and personal with your favorite NASCAR Philips Truck Series drivers.
