Reply to How to tell my mom (54F) that I (21F) was SA'd by Apprehensive-Rest470

I’m so sorry this happened to you.

Dad here of age 57.

I love my kids to death and they know they can raise absolutely anything with me.

They also know I’d listen first before talking.

I’m pleased you’ve got somebody that you can talk to, friends and therapist.

I’d possibly say that the easiest way to tell your mum is by just saying “I’ve got something to tell you but I need you to listen and not just react, as I want to talk this through with you and not jump about with emotion and anger”

Then tell her.

Your mum loves you. She will listen to you.

I wish I could be there with you to help you tell her. Again I’m sorry this person did this to you.

Reply to Beyond Meat? by ScummyCivicOwner

On a more serious note; they lost almost 70 million dollars last quarter. They had -85% net profit margin in the same quarter. They have a negative PE ratio.

I’m one of the few people who enjoys beyond meat products, even though I’m not a vegan or vegetarian. But yeah I wouldn’t touch this stock with a 10 foot pole.

Reply to comment by pharaohandrew in TIL about the void that forms under certain trees when it snows, called tree wells. The upper branches of the tree prevents snow from falling below it, creating a pocket that is a serious peril for skiers & snow boarders. Several die every year from falling head first into these voids. by Roguecop

I grew up in southern Indiana in an environment similar to Georgia. Hot, humid, rattlesnakes, copperheads, a zillion biting bugs, and so on. We did have snow in the winter but never over a few inches.

Reply to comment by Aromatic_Highlight27 in How soon will people be confortable with being treated only by machines, as opposed to AI-assisted human medical doctors? by Aromatic_Highlight27

Personally, I’d want a biopsy to confirm, but after that I’d follow the AI prescribed course of treatment.

If a human doctor disagreed, I’d want them to chat and figure out why. The theoretical “medical model“ is going to know A LOT more than the human doctor, but maybe the human doctor has made a creative leap to some conclusion. So let them talk and find out why they disagree.

Reply to Cash out to pay CC off? by TransitUX

401k is protected in bankruptcy.

So, no, never do it under any reason.

If you earn enough to pay off the cards within the next year or so, then tighten your budget and pay it off.

If you don't make enough to pay it off in a year get the debt reduced or consolidated under a lower interest loan and then tighten your budget and pay it off.

If you won't be able to pay it, at all. Take the L and file for bankruptcy. Start over.
