Totally agree. I'm on restricted duties at the moment so meet all of my clients on teams. I hate it. The audio is terrible so one or both of us is always mishearing, my desk is in front of a window so I have to keep my curtains closed for them to see me. I don't get to build the same rapport with them and their responses to my questions are more stilted because of it. A large part of my job is judging body language and reading non-verbal cues, which is next to impossible on teams.

And on monday, my computer decided to do a mandatory, 3 hour update, so I missed an appointment and couldn't access the client's number to apologise or explain. So I had to text a colleague to run over to the client's office let them know I wasn't going to make it

Yeah but it's still a third of the price

You joke but yeah, that's a thing. Season ticket holders of my local club with a disability can request a free pick-up and drop-off for every match

Yes, well done. The US is behind Iraq and Zimbabwe so of course nothing needs to be done in the US until those countries sort their shit out

 

Garnspecialisten offers surplus yarn from the fashion industry at a reduced price and seems to have a range of type, quality and price points.

I don't know if the shipping is justifiable for those in the US/rest of the world but, for those in Denmark and North/Central Europe, I definitely recommend checking them out.

Either or both parent could be responsible depending on the circumstances. Was dad working away and doesn't own any guns? Not his responsibility. Does mum have 3 guns but all of them were locked away according to strict safety regulations and the child accessed a gun from somewhere else? Also not responsible. Did uncle give the child a gun and tell him to go nuts? Very responsible. Circumstances, and levels of culpability, can vary. If both parents own guns, didn't secure them properly and failed to monitor or restrict the child's concerning behaviours then yes, they're both equally culpable.

I don't really identify as liberal and not sure what that's got to do with anything. But regardless, if somebody's willful negligence leads to multiple deaths then yes, they should be held accountable.

We don't need to focus on the details here. If they were strangers, the jury would say something to the effect of, 'Jennifer failed to prevent undue access to her gun' or 'negligently permitted a stranger to have access to her gun'. Ultimately, if it's her gun, she needs to be in control of it, regardless of the circumstances

Eh, if the child was an adult and they were strangers to each other, I'd still say that the gun owner was culpable for not securing their gun properly. If you own a weapon, it's your responsibility to know where it is and what it's doing at any time

More than one person can be responsible for a crime. A burgler might have been the one to break and enter but the accomplice could still have been culpable of staking the house and driving the getaway car.

I know a Simon Banks who works in a bank. Go figure
