Some people have an early growth spurt and people get held back a year sometimes to repeat a grade. The size of the child isn’t relevant here, it is still wrong to choke anybody.

It varies from state to state. In Virginia a life sentence is 60 years while in Montana it is 10 years.

I spent my high school years as a newly born again Christian in the Bible Belt, so I would’ve been the weirdo who loved something like this. This was definitely not a thing where I grew up. It is so weird to think of LA being a religious indoctrination hotbed, that is not something I expected.

I was following conspiracy theory communities prior to Sandy Hook and Alex Jones stood out because he had a track record well before that event of declaring any big tragedy that hit the news as a false flag event. His audience clearly loved that tactic because just about every day he had a new false flag current event with crisis actors. Sandy Hook wasn’t really given a unique treatment by Jones, as soon as I saw the headline that day, my first thought was that Jones was soon going to declare it to be yet another false flag event, because he always said shootings were faked by the government to take people’s guns away. The difference is in the public response to this one. The public couldn’t ignore the harassment of all these grieving parents the way it ignored the rest of his rants. We are a lot more sensitive to harms towards children than we are towards adults so this story got a lot more traction.

After that remark he said the media will say he is horrible, as if the media is the problem for telling everyone exactly what he said.

Vanilla is a pretty expensive spice and vanillin can be synthesized from oil or wood, you should probably assume most things vanilla flavored are artificially flavored. There is way more demand for vanilla than the amount of vanilla pods grown in the world.

As far as I know, it is contractors he stiffs. I don’t know what kind of clauses he has in his contracts but that is a little different than wage theft. I do think he should pay contractors for the work they have done regardless of what type of law they fall under.

I can say that if you contact the department of labor over wage theft of a regular salary, they are actually really responsive. I have a friend who filed a report very recently over his employer manipulating his time sheet and not paying him for all of the hours worked and he got a call back within 12 hours even though they say it can take up to ten days. It was surprisingly quick. They set him up with a department of labor app to track his hours going forward to document any future discrepancies between his actual labor and the number of hours he is getting paid for. The situation is ongoing so I can’t say what the resolution is yet, but they sounded pretty supportive.

Some of the Russians who fall out of windows are shot, poisoned, murdered in prison, or have their planes blown up too? Did they get pushed out of a first floor window and then Russia had to initiate the backup plan when they survived?

Paired with the accompanying text, the commenter implies that the people calling for the burning of Pride flags should burn their racist confederate pride flags.

He is an insane conman. He blamed a bowl of chili for not remembering basic facts about his children during his custody trial and behaved pretty insane during the defamation trials, too. He is great at dialing up the theatrics on his show to bring in the money, but he is also downright crazy.

He kept Mein Kampf on his nightstand, that response would come across as a positive to Trump and his fans.

Single motherhood tends to be a ticket to poverty and impoverished parents can’t provide kids as much resources to support their education. Poor kids are more likely to have to enter the workforce sooner to provide for basic needs. An abortion might have allowed the parent to have more earnings and stability before raising a kid. Also plenty of anti-abortion activists are hypocrites and will make excuses for why their circumstances merit an abortion while everyone else needs their access blocked. When their kid gets raped by an uncle and can’t get an abortion, they will be left with an extra child care burden too that might have otherwise been negated with a secret abortion.
