    I 100% agree. There should NOT be a statute of limitations in cases of rape, or physical abuse just as there isn't with murder. The damage done to the victims is lifelong and as such, so should be the time limit on the consequences. Putting a clock on consequences, only gives cover to the...

    Gifted an elephant

    I LOVE ELEPHANTS! They are awesome creatures so I wouldn't have a problem with them.. I would do everything I could to take care of it to the best of my ability.. That said, make sure you are nice to them because they keep grudges, and don't think you can escape them just because you died...

    Do you get soda cravings?

    Right! Just don't make the mistake of pulling up to a drive-thru south of the Mason-Dixon and asking for Dr. Pepper, because you will not get that, you will end up with Mr. Pibb/Pibb Xtra. Which as a Dr. Pepper fanatic (check my sig lol) is still good, but they changed the formula sometime in...

    Do you get soda cravings?

    Yes. I have a soda stream so we've been making our own by either using their syrups or making our own using Crystal Light and other sugar-free drinks.. That is, until last Summer when our canisters ran out of CO2 and we have been too busy/lazy to run to Walmart to exchange it.. or whatever it...

    Plans for today?

    Finish clearing boxes out of our living room and dining room and continue working on re-re-reorganizing the kitchen. I say re-re-reorganize because the first time I organized it, it was when we first got here in March 2022 with the first truck of stuff which was primarily about half of our...

    Do you ever disinfect your controllers?

    Generally speaking, my controllers are pretty clean.. I usually don't eat or drink when playing games, so I don't really have to worry as much but a quick wipe down with a Lysol or Clorox wipe is all that is needed. However, since we've been unpacking and getting things organized, we have...

    Should all crimes be equally punishable?

    I apologize. Sandy Hook is a city and school district within Connecticut. Adam Lanza, 20, was the shooter, his mother was an alleged gun nut, and worked at the school. I am not sure if she was a teacher or not, but I assume that she would have tried to stop him from going through with it, which...

    Suncream is intended for all skin tones

    Again, I don't make assumptions, I am only speaking from my experience. I don't claim to be an expert on anything. No, I don't think that the racism comes from the origin of Slavery. I think there are many factors that contribute to including, but not limited to fear, ignorance (willful and...

    Suncream is intended for all skin tones

    I personally never believed in the myth that Black people don't need sunscreen. Honestly, I think this was something that came from Slavery because the darker skinned slaves were forced to work the fields for the slave owners, while the fairer skinned slaves were forced to be the house slaves...

    Should all crimes be equally punishable?

    No. I am saying that the Sandy Hook shooter killed his mother before he took her gun and went on a rampage. And the Las Vegas shooter killed his girlfriend before he killed 49 people. My mistake, I believe she was the one who tipped off the cops but she stated that he did abuse her. I am...

    Not to mention them targeting the victims that come forward themselves. Many SA victims stay silent for this reason and the ones that do come forward end up being re-victimized by the cops all over again. And don't EVEN get me started on rampant CSA within the police force, let alone the NYPD...

    Should all crimes be equally punishable?

    Here are a few links to the cases I was referring to for personal reasons (and the sake of my mental health) I am not going to get too deep into the subject of both DV and SA. https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/24/us/teen-chrystul-kizer-sex-trafficking-death-bond/index.html ^ Although this link...

    Charging your phone

    My phone died on Thursday.. and I still haven't charged it, so I hope no one thinks I'm dead.. But honestly I try to let my battery die on its own and charge it when it does.. I have messed up a lot of batteries by leaving my phone plugged into the charger constantly, and accidently falling...

    At what point can it not be fat shaming?

    I agree, and that is all the more reason for people to mind their own business especially if it is regarding something that doesn't personally affect them. This consequence is avoidable, but if the person is the type where they always have to have an opinion on everything then it isn't, and they...

    Should all crimes be equally punishable?

    Yes, he was asleep, but that was the only way she could make her move.. I'm not saying that it is right, but that is common in domestic violence and even child abuse cases. There was a kid who killed her trafficker the same way.. she did 5 years I think before her case got national attention...

    Guns

    I hate guns. I never felt powerful when holding one, let alone disposing of it. In fact, it was quite the opposite, it felt dangerous and it was not a feeling I enjoyed. I feel more comfortable when I know that they are in the hands of someone who has been trained to use one, and not someone...

    Ban Appeals?

    Thank you for the respect, I truly appreciate it. Anyway, polite or not, the very fact that they keep returning after you banned them is still them being disrespectful of your wishes. To put it in the context of dating, you already told this person that you want them to leave and never want to...

    Would you add a music player to your forum?

    I have.. as an April Fool's prank.. it was a hidden embed of a perfect loop of the chorus from "Never Gonna Give You Up" and whenever you clicked a link to go anywhere, it would restart.. I didnt have it up for a full day though, but when I took it down I posted it in a topic so that people who...

    Starbucks?

    The only time I go to Starbucks is when we are passing through the NJTP and decide to stop for gas and for the restroom.. My husband loved their Mocha Chip frappe and always gets that.. but as for me.. I prefer Cafe Bustelo. I just can't see paying an inflated price for burnt coffee.. there...

    Story behind your username?

    I used to go by Dark Angel, but my Mom said that it sounded morbid.. she suggested that I put something more positive like Beautiful or Sexy (she was thinking it was a self-esteem issue) but I told her that made me sound cocky and like I was looking for attention, so I opted for Black Angel...
