  • The WHOLE system? Do you promise?

  • No because as far as I can tell this is just a made up quote. I hate her and this admin, but this appears to just be made up nonsense circulating on social media.

  • How are they gonna starve us when workers are the ones who grow the food, deliver the food to grocery stores, stock the shelves, and sell other workers the food? If we actually had more unions and did some organizing with a general strike in mind, we could setup strike funds and a plan for how to get food during a general strike. Then all we'd have to do is support each other and wait them out til our demands are met.

  • Veganuary

  • I just want to add that B-12 is often missing from or low in many omnivores' diets too, not just vegans. Another good source of B-12 is nutritional yeast. It's like an umami flavored (some people call compare it to cheese, but I don't really think it has a cheese taste and don't want to disappoint anyone) powder that you can add to whatever you want. Works really well incorporated in a recipe or just sprinkled on top of stuff.

  • Interesting. When I view it on Jerboa it doesn't even take me to imgur, just plays in the app with nothing but the video. Fair criticism though if you're having to view the site itself.

  • You set and communicated a healthy boundary. I think your email clearly communicates your reasoning and expectations and hopefully the recruiter passes it along to the company itself so they can receive the feedback, or at the very least uses it to tailor what sort of opportunities they send your way.

  • This is not what constructive criticism or dialogue looks like. You're just insulting OP and offering nothing else.

  • Thanks for the explanation! It's definitely interesting to ponder about and I agree there's definitely room for improvement.

  • Mistakes can be corrected with a re-recorded deed or a recorded scrivener's affidavit. All of these instruments have to be notarized, so a clerk will check for a notary's stamp but these can also be faked or the notary themself can be tricked with fake IDs when they're witnessing the doc signing. Fraud is what has to be taken to court to fix. And most fraud in a chain of title is going to be pretty easy to spot when doing a title search, but like the original post says, most of the time the owner might not ever notice it's happened until they go to refinance or sell and the lender or purchaser orders a title search. Or someone comes knocking on their door to put up a for sale sign insisting that they own this house lol. If someone buys the property from the fraudster and doesn't get a title search done and title insurance (this is incredibly dumb, get a title search done if you ever buy real estate for this and many other reasons), then they may not find out they don't even own it until they go to sell it. Or it could pass through multiple people's/entity's hands if nobody is getting a title search. They'll all need to end up in court to get their money back. There are some registers who offer a sort of notification system for if your property gets transferred, but even still it just notifies you when the deed has been done (literally).

    I think that creating a block chain could improve some aspects of real estate transfer, like needing to even do a title search, but I don't 100% understand the nuances of how they work and would have questions about what sort of problems might arise if someone loses whatever key they use to access it or if they die or something and don't leave a will with the key behind. Wouldn't that create issues that would need a court to get involved to determine ownership?

  • If I'm interpreting your improvement correctly, that's kind of how real estate property records already work (in my state in the US at least). As it stands now, a clerk at a county register of deeds office will record practically anything that you pay them to record. They do not interpret what is or isn't a fraudulent deed, for example, because that would expose the clerk and the state to liability. If issues arise about ownership, that's what the courts are for. Anyone can go down to the register of deeds' office (or in some cases access the records online) and view the deeds because they're public record. Other government entities, like the county assessor, will normally also make available a simple chain of title that shows you every deed/transfer of that property when you look it up by parcel number, address, owner name, etc. If a deed does wind up being determined to be fraudulent, normally the court order declaring it fraudulent and making a current ownership interpretation will also be recorded at the register's office (those are called quiet title cases because the court is "quieting" all other parties who are alleged to have or claiming to have an interest in the property). So there's both a public chain and a method of clearing up any inconsistencies in the chain.

  • It's also possible that they said "get out of here" just before the video started and then subsequently yelled "get out of the car". I never heard anything but get out of the car in the video that's making the rounds, but it's definitely possible the witness heard it before the video starts. And if that's the case, then they would've been giving conflicting orders, which I've seen happen in numerous encounters with police before.

  • Alternatively, OP could try talking to their neighbor about it instead of getting the state involved. Maybe even offering to help them clean it up? Getting the authorities involved could cost the neighbor money or have bad repercussions and we don't know what their circumstances are.

  • China to cover all out-of-pocket childbirth expenses

  • What you're thinking of is actually only applicable after a court judgment in China and it's for judgment defaulters, i.e. people who have violated the law, received an order to pay a fine from the court (a judgment), and then proceeded to either evade the fine or hide their assets. It's restricted to people who are within their means to pay the judgment and are still refusing or evading, and it's limited to high consumption or consumption not essential to life/work. They can still travel, they just can't buy plane tickets and nicer rail tickets or high speed rail. The government uses the restrictions to encourage people to pay their fines. The US and (I assume) western countries do similar things with judgments and bankruptcies all the time. In the US a court judgment is typically required to be paid off when you sell your home or before a lender will let you refinance your property, for example. Also a bankruptcy court can effectively restrict your right to purchase luxury items or travel or by scrutinizing your funds in court and requiring that you show up to certain court dates, just as examples. They can even refuse to let you sell your house and other assets and set stipulations for how debt must be repaid if they do let you sell it. The social credit score stuff is nonsense that's long since been debunked or has Western equivalents that we don't bat an eye at.

  • English as a second language learners: what words were really hard for you to pronounce?

    Jump

  • The ch digraph in both instances of Eichhörnchen is pronounced closer to the way you pronounce the first consonant in the word "hue". It's closer to the front of the mouth than the one you're thinking of in Irish. It's ç in the International Phonetic Alphabet. It's a different sound than the other way that ch is pronounced in German and has to do with what sounds/letters appear around it. The other pronunciation of ch in German is normally pronounced as x (this sound is the one you're thinking of that's in Irish) or χ.

  • Meet me at the Presidential Lair

    Jump

  • Not sure about the other presidential libraries, but I've been to the Clinton library in Little Rock, AR and it's basically like a museum for his presidency. It's filled with memorabilia like letters from celebrities congratulating him on his election and binders with his daily presidential schedule and shit. It's basically a glaze house for Bill Clinton.

  • Obligatory "leave the leaves" if you can. Insects and small animals use the leaf litter and they're good for soil creation (thanks, worms and fungi). Wondering why you don't see as many lightning bugs/fireflies nowadays? Leave your leaves and they'll have places to lay their eggs. Avoid becoming a member of the cult of the lawn!
