In fairness there’s a wide gulf between beach tents and camping tents. Doesn’t mean enforcement isn’t subjective but nearly every popular beach I’ve ever been to prohibited camping. I have no idea what kind of tent you had, or if cops take the same view (that beach tents are ok even if camping tents aren’t) but seems…

I was just in southern California last week and saw two preteen age surfer boys getting picked up from the beach by dad, and donning similar getups before getting in the truck. But they looked like mom had taken a beach towel and cut a head hole and sewed the sides together. Not a bad idea.

I just spent a week on the southern west coast and many of the beaches where I was were pretty narrow, only allowing for 1 maybe two rows of folks between water and “back” of the beach.

Having just returned from the beach, umbrellas are fine if you’re by yourself or don’t care if your feet get sunburned.

Is it just me or does his face seem to get bigger each time he’s in the news?

Your approach seems an awful lot like “if we can’t save them all, why should we try”. Emotional and developmental well-being matter. Just because they’re often under-resourced priorities doesn’t mean they can’t be cause for removal.

I share that second hand embarrassment for the tattoo itself, but x2 for the ham-handed way the video producers used it, it’s like something OKGo would do but 1000x better.

Seems like some vintage FAKE NEWS to me.

How about that pair of sweet mint green VW new beetles at 44 seconds in? Probably the most dated thing about this video.

This feels a little mean to say, but is that hairstyle also caused by his eating disorder and/or hernia?

Holy shit didn’t they just put out a new single (or collaboration on someone else’s)?

wtf could be more deeply soul crushing than “crushes and fun stuff” in 8th grade?

Oh ok cool more bullshit. If we’re counting, this is your 4th post in this thread alone.

“Lazy” is obvious shorthand for “not taking care of her children’s needs”.

Seems clear there is abuse or neglect, which is why the state took the kids. I’m always suspect of parent’s who give sound bites to the media about their children entangled with the law, but I’m inclined to believe her father (the one who helped raise some of the children) is being truthful when he says they’re not…

these loving people trying their best are a danger

This person isn’t being rude to you. They’re pointing out how thoughtless and stupid your take was.

A) no evidence they’re trying their best.

Seems like intense weather sealing and clean-room style air purification would be a better investment in keeping a clean house. If you can capture dirt and dust before it lands on your surfaces, there’s far less need to dust/clean those surfaces.
