Work in law enforcement for five minutes, that'll cure you.

Snort, I get “Wow, you look like a girl!” when I emerge from the change room at the MMA gym in my summer dress.

Normally I am never on the ball for these things but that was literally the first thing I thought when I read this. You want to fuck your grandma?

Bullshit. I work in policing and stoners—yes, doing nothing but weed—get violent all the time. It's a psychotropic drug, it will affect people differently. The 'stoners are all mellow' myth is not true.

Exactly. Well said. I am not objective at all and the whole narrative is terrifying for everyone...and yet I feel the rage and pain and fear from the black community in particular is totally justified and heart-breaking and shameful to our society as a whole. So I have no sides I can support fully other than “Let’s…

Sorry, I should also make it clear I’m not out in the streets, I’m support so I see everything but I don’t even have to deal with the physical reactions/incidents. Except during riots and then I nearly have a panic attack every time I hear someone I cared about on the radio.

I appreciate that. I’m pretty good with releasing stuff...I have good support and outlets. Frankly, part of my anger lately has been from watching the narrative of “cops are evil fascists” being propped up by the bastards in uniform who are murdering people. Those aren’t real cops to me; those guys/girls are worse…

Actually, if you can't leave stuff at work I think it makes you the most crazy. You have to have a method for letting go, support, hobbies or if you're a decent person you go super crazy or become horrible and jaded and bad at your job.

Thanks. I don’t get angry much at work—doesn’t help—and when I am it's usually hard to tell so when I say I was visibly furious a few times this month, it means something.

No, no a single uncurated top ten list with no data backing it up is definitive proof!

Thanks. This story is not even the worst thing I’ve had to directly deal with this month in my job in law enforcement. This is just sad. We've had some evil shit happen up in my "house" in Canada.

I'm a fan of the "Chalet School" books and someone's been writing new ones 'updated' to the modern age and it's really not good. The writing might be fine but I don't want to read about Jo and the gang getting dementia and being cheated on. Sorry.

That's exactly how I read it.

Yeah, you've got fingers too. I like nice hands.

It's okay for me to be one though? Cause I'm a chick?

Me too, in Canada. Wet Coast.

For some reason my little suburb of Vancouver is lousy with door to door religious proselytizing and the JW's are SUPER aggressive about it. I work nights often and they wake me up. Last two times they came to my door it was for a "children's camp" and my answer was "Childless atheist, please leave my property" and…

IT TOOK EVERYONE THAT LONG FOR A SNOWPIERCER REFERENCE I AM ASHAMED I TELL YOU, ASHAMED.

I once had a police file for a bee swarm in a rural area. Not sure what the local residents thought we were going to do—bees are adept at the Matrix and can dodge bullets with ease.

I watched Yelp extort a business I have used for 15 years that have never been anything but good to me, the family owners are like my own family now. Literally the DAY AFTER they politely declined to pay YELP for advertising them their 5 star reviews were removed and the entry was flooded with 1 star reviews. Some of…
