Don't Paraphrasing someone on Reddit with a fairly decent take on things, but they don't charge you with felony domestic violence for a spat that turns violent. The bulk of DV cases are tried as misdemeanors which carry an upper limit of one year in the county pokey. The key difference is how detectable and traumatic the injuries are, and considering the prosecution is pursuing felony charges against a highly visible person with access to excellent legal counsel, they probably have some serious (and extravagant) evidence on hand. The California legal code (the state where he lives) places special emphasis on injuries born from strangulation, so take from that what you will. Roiland is looking at up to five years in federal prison for this. He's also up for false imprisonment, which in Cali could add another two years to the docket.

Awful woman on radio 2 just then. Rang in to comment on raising the state pension age to say how she had retired early, doesn't even take the state pension yet and how it was all very lovely for her. But also decided to chuck in that the government should increase the age at which you can claim free prescriptions. Had a double barreled surname.

Sanford posted:I took a 20% paycut post-covid when I accepted a job that’s full time from home rather than one with a fifteen mile commute, and office based. By far and away the best decision I’ve ever made, probably the most significant quality of life increase I’ve ever had. Would not go back to office work now for twice that salary difference. I passed probation at my job literally a month after lockdown, at which point the company had previously had an option to give you a loan to buy a Tube season ticket. A Zone 1-4 yearly season ticket for the tube is £2,208 - after tax, so being able to skip that was actually equivalent to a bit over £3,000 pay rise. The timing worked out pretty well, really.

Tories lack empathy, news at 11!! My favourite one is still the MP who repeatedly and enthusiastically voted for cuts to legal aid, and then ended up being taken through court and amassing massive legal bills, and then becoming a passionate campaigner for... increasing legal aid funding.

By quirk of fate (someone drove into my car) I drove my first new and modern car today. Are they all so... floaty? Feels like I'm driving a cloud, from another room. Very disconcerting, cannot feel the violent struggle for dominance between the road, the engine, the brakes, and the steering. I hope it's just an unreasonably new car thing and not a thing every car in the future will have. Also it has a self driving mode which is absolutely loving terrifying and tried to kill me.

I'm exactly the same, hence music for working is either techno, or classical. Likewise I struggle to read anything significant if I can hear any talking. Also I've used a USB mouse jiggler for ages now just to keep my work laptop screen on. It times out after 5 minutes and requires a password which can be a real pain.

Part of the problem with this is the splitter effect - there's one petition to have all LGBT+ content removed and it did the rounds first, but the counter petitions are disorganised and overlapping - one i've seen is pulling LGB alliance poo poo and asking for LGB to be kept but not T etc, others are duplicates that mean the overall response will seem lower. It's loving horrible to see, and the comments are full of 'well meaning' 60 year olds asking why kids need to know about "this stuff." I saw this counter petition but it sort of seems like it's only about primary schools? https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/631529

Another guy who had “flu like symptoms” (before home tests were a thing) put him on the spot and said “so are you telling me to come to the office then?” when he called him from the boardroom conference phone. He got made redundant quite quickly, too. Edit: at my new job we’re having to put all our prices up by 7.5% due to inflation. Everyone’s wages are going up by the same amount, for the same reason. After previously having arguments like “if you pay them [X] it’ll technically be under minimum wage and illegal” this is like a different world.

That anti-LGBTQ+ petition just gets stranger, it seems like it was posted by an Algerian government official, so what the gently caress business is it of his for a start: https://twitter.com/PinkNews/status/1618214241714204674?t=jpR_EkBJXsP8dE0V4_gvTQ&s=19 Pinknews linked to the same counter-petition I linked above: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/631529 The good news is that the anti petition was posted on the 12th and has about 190k votes with a week's head start, and the counter-petition wasn't posted until the 20th but has already racked up about 32k signatures:

You can buy a physical jiggler on Amazon though (although I know of somebody that got done by HR for trying to expense the purchase!). And if you have a mouse like mine with the blue light optical sensor you can just turn it upside down pointing at the ceiling and the slight breeze will keep it active (YMMV). Or just hire your cats to swat at it, natural predator after all E: vvvvv

I haven't used a mouse for years, I would need a software on the computer to do something. As I said, luckily my work doesn't do this (and as I seem to be de factor IT department too they'd need me to put it on anyway). I've downloaded several apps to my work laptop which are extremely useful (for work purposes) and thanking the lord I don't have to go via some sort of requisitioning & justification process while simultaneously expressing concern (sub voce to myself) that I shouldn't REALLY be able to do this!
