I found and purchased a copy of it on DVD from Goodwill many years ago. Totally worth the $1.99 lol.

We can do both. The problem is the people that believe certain people don't "deserve" help.

Dateline, Forensic Files...

But I find Myths and Legends more comfortable to fall asleep to. Far less concern when I hear a noise in the middle of the night lol.

Someone close to me was raped the first 5 years of his life by a relative, and has been in therapy (very successfully) ever since. When someone that young experiences ongoing trauma like that, it fucks all the developmental areas in life including the reward/feel good parts of the brain. There are things that the brain becomes wired for that can't be undone, but with effective treatment can be managed.

Under the best circumstances recovery is incredibly hard, without therapy and proper support it's not surprising someone could go off the rails like this. Not saying that this predator was abused because I don't know, but it's statistically likely.

There's an actual quality true crime podcast called Crime Junkie, and an associated podcast specifically dedicated to cold cases called The Deck. It's a whole thing for some people, but occasionally a listener hits on something and makes a phone call that gets the ball rolling again.

I listen because I find it interesting, but that's the extent of it. Some people it's truly a hobby, or more to chase information down.

"Bulking agent

Anti-bulking agent"

🤔

Emulsifiers? Egg yolks are emulsifiers, but I guess the chicken is on the hook for the processing.

I'm paying $115mo for whatever the cable crossing a nearby interstate can offer my small neighborhood. I've been told by a frustrated service worker that until Xfinity is willing to replace the lines our service will continue to fluctuate. Most of the time it's just ok, but we have spikes of great connection or barely connected. This effects the whole neighborhood, but many are older residents who I might guess rely on the Internet less.

Typically the bags used are filled with dried corn, so the game is throwing the bags into a hole = corn hole.

That said, I just call it "playing bags." Lol

My 21yo soon wants to build out a van and take a chunk of time (6 months?) in between jobs and drive around the States. We're talking over a year from now, but as the idea has come up in discussion I told him that I'd like to have some form of tracker set up. He's good with it.

It's almost like immature people who's brains still have a long way to go have difficulty grasping long term consequences and haven't developed restraint over impulsive thoughts.

Weird.

(it's a reference to the Blues Brothers.)
