[02:20] DaemonFC Not knowing to use CBT and asking the patient to compare what they're feeling to colors and shapes and writing it down in a book for the parents' divorce hearings is easy money if you can get it, I guess. [D.A.] was a pretentious pencil-pusher and he's probably still pulling down a paycheck because people like that tend to burrow and hide from people who can expose them and do something about it. [02:20] DaemonFC I guess he didn't realize, or care, that he was being evaluated as well. What can a patient that doesn't even want to be there do about him? [02:20] DaemonFC Moving on, I think I'm really getting somewhere with Holly. [02:20] DaemonFC I've spoken to a few other counselors between [D.A] and Holly, and some were even worse than [D.A], like [C.K] who ate into our session time to vividly recollect his father molesting him, traumatizing me more along the way by having to stop and think about it."

[07:05] DaemonFC My favorite thing about Indiana is they have a renter's deduction. [07:05] DaemonFC But to claim it you tell them how much you paid your landlord and where he lives. [07:05] DaemonFC It helps them audit landlords. [07:07] DaemonFC schestowitz STATE OF ILL passed a law I asked them for. [07:07] DaemonFC Shockingly enough. [07:07] DaemonFC It's illegal for your landlord to force you to pay him through an app or Zelle or something now. [07:07] DaemonFC He has to take checks.

[07:24] DaemonFC Their profit margin collapsed last quarter. [07:24] DaemonFC Lots of revenue. No profit really. [07:25] DaemonFC These interest rates are really digging into bank profits. [07:25] DaemonFC And with Biden's "war on junk fees", they'll just do what they did with Dodd Frank. [07:25] DaemonFC Just push the fees on people in other ways. Take away rewards and interest. [07:30] DaemonFC schestowitz I've had all kinds of trouble with vote by mail. [07:31] DaemonFC Half the time it works, half the time they send the ballot after election day or say there's a problem with your signature and you have to come in. [07:31] DaemonFC So one time (2020) I had to sign a form saying if the ballot ever showed up, I would tear it up and realized it would be a crime to vote twice, so I'd like to vote in person. [07:31] DaemonFC Then I ended up tearing up the ballot after it came 3 days after the election. [07:32] DaemonFC Then in 2022, I tried to vote for Governor and some locals and there was a "signature problem". [07:32] DaemonFC So I had to go fix it. [07:33] DaemonFC They like mail ballots because if they don't want you to vote they'll just try to send it too late to count it or say your signature looks funny. [07:33] DaemonFC Then they send you a "cure" notice with one or two days to get down there. [07:34] DaemonFC It's another way for Democrats to commit fraud and stay in office by deciding who votes. [07:34] DaemonFC They don't want in-person voting and they really don't want Voter ID. [07:34] DaemonFC Because then it would be an honest election and they'd lose their seats. [07:46] DaemonFC You need a State ID to sign up for food stamps, Medicaid, get a job, sign up for Social Security benefits, get Unemployment, go into a federal building, get on an airplane, have a library card, you name it. [07:46] DaemonFC Tell me who is actually out there that needs to vote that doesn't have a State ID? What are they doing? [07:47] DaemonFC Indiana has to give you one for free if you tell them you need it to vote. [07:47] DaemonFC It's an automatic fee waiver of the $10 for the 6 year card. [07:47] DaemonFC They don't even check your income. ● Feb 08 [08:16] *shasta_ has quit (Quit: Leaving) [08:31] *danse-nr3 (~danse@151.37.223.187) has joined #techrights [08:33] *danse-nr3 has quit (Remote host closed the connection) [08:34] *danse-nr3 (~danse@151.37.223.187) has joined #techrights [08:36] TR News (NEW): Optimizing Cybersecurity: Exploring the Synergy Between Linux Operating Systems and Emerging Security http://news.tuxmachines.org/n/2024/02/08/Optimizing_Cybersecurity_Exploring_the_Synergy_Between_Linux_Op.shtml | Gemini address: gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2024/02/08/Optimizing_Cybersecurity_Exploring_the_Synergy_Between_Linux_Op.gmi [08:36] TR Bot Tux Machines Optimizing Cybersecurity: Exploring the Synergy Between Linux Operating Systems and Emerging Security [08:39] DaemonFC https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UknGtJI-ukY [08:39] TR Bot https://yt.oelrichsgarcia.de/watch?v=UknGtJI-ukY [08:39] TR Bot not resolve host: yt.oelrichsgarcia.de ( status 0 @ https://yt.oelrichsgarcia.de/watch?v=UknGtJI-ukY ) [08:40] DaemonFC I like singing this one.
