If I'm reading it right, after moving the files, he left and went out and someone (his wife? It's not clear) went through his computer while he was out and reported him.

Also even if the pictures are of himself, he admits there are pictures of 9th grade girls nudes on it which yeah, thats child porn.

Remember folks, dont save pictures of anything with anyone naked except the tattoos that show where to sail to find land in this post global warming hellscape.

TBH a 3 day is some weak rear end poo poo for sexual assault. 10 day emergency expulsion should be the floor for what that kid did, with a perm expulsion on the table if he's not sufficiently contrite or has any sort of disciplinary record.

Yup, there was a news story a while ago about a couple of teenagers (iirc like ~17) who filmed themselves having sex, and it was found and they where arrested and charged not long after. The judge had some remark about the difficulty of trying them under CP laws since they where both the victim and the perpetrator of the same crime. IIRC they where found guilty, using the not-circular logic of saying the creating new supply of CP stimulates demand which might create other supply which is then bad.

So basically, laugh at the US.

Whats that? Is that a HEATED GAMER MOMENT on the horizon?



AITA for staying quiet after my boyfriend told me to shut up during a heated gaming moment?

quote:

Last night my boyfriend started tilting during a match where we were playing on opposite teams. I understand gamer rage and I get it myself too, but I don't like when he takes his anger out on me. I try to defuse, but no matter what I say or do he just gets angrier. Last night I made him pinkie-promise (yeah, I know...) that he would try not to rage, and if he did he would take responsibility for his feelings and not blame them on me. This time I happened to be recording, so I was able to write down a complete transcript.

I think he took it too far. Plus, our pets are in his room and I don't want him to scare them by screaming and throwing things (he's already dented the wall several times.) He thinks it's my fault for being overly sensitive and that I should just drop it and let him vent. That he has the right to deal with his emotions in any way he sees fit and I should just accept it. What do you think?

Boyfriend: Throws something

Me: Don’t do that.

Boyfriend: What?

Me: Why did you throw something?

Boyfriend: Because I’m mad.

Me: …

Boyfriend: I hate that (other player’s name) guy.

Me: (sad) I thought we were having fun.

Boyfriend: I am having fun. I don’t like that one guy.

Me: Don't throw things just because of that.

Boyfriend: I don’t like constantly throwing myself and dying. That’s lame. Very bothersome.

Me: I don’t like it when you throw things.

Boyfriend: Wha-… Why do you have to whine? Can you just shut up?

Me: …

Boyfriend: It’s not like I asked your opinion.

Me: …

Boyfriend: Sigh.

(Long silence)

Boyfriend: So lame.

Me: Mm, yeah. (trying to agree so he'll calm down)

Boyfriend: What? No, I mean like… All the Germans (my team) are all such loving try-hards. Like seriously, there’s no-one without an STG.

Me: I know.

Boyfriend: Sigh. Like, I don’t want to play assaults anyway, gently caress you. This is why I don’t want to play assault, it ends up like this cancer poo poo all the time.

Me: …

Boyfriend: And now you have to be quiet for no reason.

Me: You told me to shut up.

Boyfriend: Well so what? Haven’t you loving grown up about that yet?

Me: I’m literally doing what you asked me to do.

Boyfriend: Well you’re being autistically loving retarded about it. If I say shut up, that just means I don’t want to hear you whine and complain into my ear about what you were doing. Do you understand? Or is that too hard to loving understand? It should be obvious by now. God. How have you still not understood that? It’s not like I tell you like “oh, be quiet” like 100%. No, it does not mean that.

Me: …

Match ends.

Boyfriend: Okay, I’m going to quit this.

I'd give this only a 5 on the Mohs scale of heated gamer moments.

Any suspension much longer than a day doesn't carry much extra 'punishment' for the schoolkid, while also bombing their grades. So either suspend or expel, don't dilly dather about. (Also I'm fairly sure that expulsion is permanent.)

Some 18 year old kid in Georgia got like 10 years in prison for getting a BJ from his 17 year old girlfriend. I think he got out early though.

10 day emergency expulsion is a thing where I live, and it's a big deal. A permanent expulsion requires a school board hearing.

And LOL that you think a one day out of school suspension is sufficient punishment for sexual assault.

Heads up, this is a story of how the courts wanted to sexually assault a teenager.

I remember there was this case a few years ago in Virginia where a teenage boy was arrested and sent to trial for sexting a video of himself naked to his girlfriend. Since he was underaged, he was charged with making cp of himself. The prosecutors and detective wanted to prove that it was the teen in the video (his face wasnt visible iirc) by stimulating his penis, taking pictures of it and comparing it to the video evidence. To demonstrate this villainous kid was making illegal porn, of course.

Fortunately wiser heads prevailed, and they didnt take naked pictures of kid against his will. The charges were eventually dropped (although he still served a probation sentence), and the lead detective later committed suicide when a separate investigation revealed he was molesting kids on his hockey team for years.

It reads a lot like the librarian's discussion with the principal determined the punishment, and she felt the 3-day suspension was appropriate.

I hate handbags tbh but it's more predicated in my issues with both the exploitativeness of f the fashion industry, lazy branding techniques, and coming from a household where I got scissor privileges back for cutting up a toy of an unattractive man, that is to say a household where my mother made it clear that handbags are only fashion for tubbies

Today was my (23) birthday and on Facebook I recieved a "happy birthday ❤❤❤" message/ post from an ex on facebook. My gf want me to block my ex from high school because she thinks the hearts were excessive. I think it means nothing. The relationship was more of a friendship, we never had sex or anything close. What do you think? Should I unfriend my ex from Facebook or argue with my gf? My gf doesn't like it bc she added the hearts.

Spending money on what you like is fine, but if what you spend money is diminished if there is no one to wave it in front of your probably making shallow choices.

In the case of designer hand bags, only people as shallow as you will be even aware that your hand bag costs as much as a used car, let alone care.

Quality makes a difference, but most blind studies show that people can't tell difference between things without being told. Like, you can give someone water from a hose, but if you tell them it's $12 per glass, theyd list a hundred reasons of how they know it's better than commoner swill.
