Dad Tells Teen Daughter Not To Proceed With Job Interview After Realizing The “Employer’s” Scheme

It's never been common, as far as I know. Basic laws that protect the person, how to work around with the police (such as saying "I invoke my right to a lawyer" rather than "I want a lawyer"), and taxes are never taught. It's a bunch of b******t, probably to make it so way more people do some stupid little things that's illegal that they need to pay a fine for and to keep companies and higher ups from needing to pay those fines.

“Don’t Say That To Your Kid”: 22 Tips On Teaching And Parenting From This School Principal

I'm 95% sure I have autism, and I would draw all the time while a lecture was going on. I would actually do much, much worse if I was told to stop and "pay attention". That was how I took in information. It's like, if my brain didn't have something to drown out (my drawing), then it was overstimulated and couldn't focus properly. I need the right level of "distraction" for it to be super beneficial, but it's a big level of variation that works for me.

I think that's your viewpoint of hack. A hack, for me, is anything I didn't know before that can make things better/easier/more useful. I've been cooking a long time, so these aren't all hacks for me, but for someone just starting out it can be. Not everyone online is a distinguished chef, just remember that. It's annoying when you want to find your hacks, sure, but be mindful of others too.

It was a whole thing for a short while online. People were trying to figure out why some ice cubes are super crisp and clear while the majority are a little foggy and have air bubbles. This might get rid of the air bubbles, but it's contaminants that can make a cube foggy.

I save bacon fat for everything. And we have a Mexican bakery here that makes fresh tortillas every single solitary day, and sells them out every single solitary day. They are to die for, and my Canadian friend can attest to it. They also have fresh masa, both prepped and just ground, if you want to try your hand at anything from corn tortillas to sopas. La Purísima if you're near the Old Glendale, AZ area!

There's also a difference with oils. Buy high quality, cold pressed, extra virgin olive oil for extra flavorful drizzles on dishes or dressings, and get cheaper stuff when cooking with it. This man on YouTube explains everything in a very detail oriented manner and goes in depth to why and what to do: https://youtu.be/YCt2txu11d4?si=NsA4pPWvTwsirwJn

On that same note, use the water you cook potatoes with to make a super potatoy mashed potato. It adds the liquid needed to make them smooth without displacing the flavor. Want extra creaminess? Add more butter, as that's got the flavor needed. Want it to taste cheesy but don't wanna overdo the dairy for reasons? Add smoked paprika. Don't know why, but it makes the potatoes taste cheesy.

If the government really does find something to be dangerous, they'll take it off the shelves, like real tinder eggs (because lazy a*s parents).

"Nanny acting like she should be paid ceo salary and treated like a queen. You have no f*****g clue how hard it is for people with kids to make ends meet." Y'all ran yourselves into a corner and smashed into it. You wanted children, you got it. Y'all f****d around and found out. Y'all are the ones who don't want abortion to be legal or easy to access. It's not just "people with children" who are having a hard time bub, it's EVERYONE. Grow the f**k up and deal with your decisions. You can't have a luxury? Too f*****g bad. It's entitlement like that that got the economy into the state it's in now, you just don't have the money to back up that mouth of yours.

Have to disagree with not being honest about the family financial situation. There is no shame in not being able to have the most expensive to keep up with other people.

“It’s Really Crazy To Me”: American Goes Viral Sharing Her Culture Shocks In Spain

To conclude: l like living here (I'm Spanish), but things have got rough over the past 15 years, after the 2008 economic crisis, and the flocks of digital nomads who want to experience the Mediterranean way of life, plus the greed of AirBnB owners are pushing locals into a nearly impossible situation with a VERY serious housing crisis that's comparable to your standard NY cost of life issues.

“It’s Really Crazy To Me”: American Goes Viral Sharing Her Culture Shocks In Spain

Alright, let's be real: 325€ rent only if you share an apartment and only in the cheapest place like Granada (to the tune of 600 to 900 for A ROOM in Madrid or Barcelona). The rest of the expenses are realistic for a person in a shared apartment, but what she's not saying is that as an English teacher who can't get into the public system (her US qualifications won't mean s**t here), her salary is around 900-1100€ a month IF she's lucky. Sounds manageable, right? Not really. Dental care isn't covered by the public health system, so you don't want to have a cavity, let alone something worse. And as soon as she does one of those lovely weekend getaways she's literally penniless until her next paycheck, because travelling IS expensive even in the cheapest fashion, for a magre 1000€/month salary. The housing problem is real, the salaries are low and anyone expecting some Vicky Cristina Barcelona kind of life is gonna be disappointed. Be advised that as non EU citizens, working permits are not a breeze, and be ready to deal with a level of bureaucracy you've never experienced before, in the words of every American friend l have here. Btw, things only close at siesta time in smaller places in the south due to the heat, the rest of the country has a longish lunch break but that is starting to vanish because we, like everybody else, want to finish earlier and leave earlier. It's a cultural change that's pretty much already implemented in bigger companies and will take some time to seep into smaller businesses.

Right? The religious zealot nutcases make no sense. Hopefully that baby won't become one. But since the birth giver is that negligent and detached, I'm assuming that child will want absolutely nothing to do with the b***h ASAP.

I want to scream: "If you can't afford to pay a sitter a decent wage, or pay for childcare, then you can't afford children!" People have kids when they can barely afford to take care of themselves. It never occurs to them that they'll need money to raise kids.

“Boss Is Mad That We Won’t Babysit Her Kid For Free”

So she is a mega Christian against abortion, but not against sluttting it up so to speak? (I’m using the term because it is how most mega Christians feel about casual sex)One of the many problems with “mega” Christians. It’s ok for them to do things they condemn others for.

Mom Abandons 11 Y.O. After One Tantrum, He Ruins Her Engagement Party 6 Years Later

Yes, how can someone think the dad cares about him when he feels like his own kid had been dumped on him. And then he encourages this wild behaviour towards his mom and stepsiblings?

Mom Abandons 11 Y.O. After One Tantrum, He Ruins Her Engagement Party 6 Years Later

A parent who genuinely cares about their children, does not tell them the other parent "abandoned them" or "dumped" them. The father is NOT a good parent in this scenario.

Radio Bursts From Nearby Star Leave Scientists Searching For An Explanation

Very cool! Magnetars are some of the most bizarre objects in the universe - if one were orbiting the Earth at the same distance as the moon, its magnetic field would be strong enough to rip the iron out of our blood cells. They're very scary and also short lived - it's thought that they settle down into normal neutron stars after a relatively short amount of time. It's always fun to hear about new discoveries - it reminds us not to get complacent and arrogant about our knowledge of the cosmos. Great article, thank you for posting! 🙂

Room Goes Silent After Man Shocks Interviewers With Blunt Answer To 9-Month Resume Gap

Inside secret: in pre-pandemic days that was a way to see if you were a problem child of a candidate. post pandemic, its a wasted time question as so many people have gaps because of C19. the only time i see it being acceptable NOW is if you are in a position that has high security issues (i.e. say, you have access to all the funds or a security clearance related thing) that's it.

I am ugly crying right now. I miss my father so much. He had an accident when I was 18, and although he didn't die, he suffered such a catastrophic brain injury that he became completely disabled and bedridden. I lost "my dad" that day. His body remained, and I stayed living at home for the next 21 years to help care for him, because I loved him. I never got the chance to have him meet my boyfriend. He couldn't walk me down the aisle if I'd gotten married. And he died in 2021 - my mother and sister couldn't handle it and they bailed and left me at the hospital hospice room with my dying father. I held his hand as he died, and my boyfriend held his other hand. I told my father it was okay to go and be at peace finally. He took his last breath with me at his side. I have his ashes. My mother pretends he never died. “The heart of a father” comic above absolutely broke me. Dad, I miss you so much. You were an amazing father and you did your best to try to protect me from Mom's physical abuse. I wish things were different. But at least you are at peace now, out of Mom's abusive reach.

People Share How They Realized They’re Not That Young Anymore (39 Answers)

Eight years ago, I pulled into a Del Taco. There was a long line at the drive-through, but the parking lot was empty, so I parked and walked in. Got the two classic burritos for $5 special and was expecting the total to be five and change, so I pulled a five and a single out of my pocket. The CHILD at the counter said, "That'll be $4.85." I thought there might be some kind of Friday night special (completely forgetting that "today" was Thursday). Gave the kid the five and stuck the single back in my pocket. Got my change, food, and receipt and went back to the car. Then, I looked at the receipt and saw The Two Dreaded Words: Senior Discount. I WAS ONLY 48!!
