Should the people with the guns, who were shooting the guns, be responsible for the deaths of the people who were shot with the guns that were held by the people with the guns?
Total fucking head scratcher.

Saw the warning minutes ago on @channel4news.bsky.social

When British broadcast media covering Gaza warn “there may be scenes some may find distressing”, why don’t they just say there will be pictures of Palestinians & their children being slaughtered?

I see The Herald is teaming up with children's charities to put the Scottish Government under pressure to do something about child poverty. I've got two beefs with this. The Herald is supposed to be a newspaper, not a lobby group and why are they not focusing on Westminster who are the cause of it?

How "Christian" of them.

But GOOD for her to sticking up for herself!
r/AmlOverreacting u/MightUsual421. 1d neighbor/local AlO for demanding to be paid after wearing something inappropriate to babysit hi! i am 15 and have been babysitting this family for over a year. they are more on the conservative side, and a lot more religious than my family, but they are generally nice and i love their kids. i did not receive payment from them the last time i babysat, and so i reached out and they are now saying they will not pay me the full price because i was wearing something inappropriate. just wondering if i am overreactingreacting for context, i was wearing a sweatshirt over my tanktop (3rd pic) and only took it off after the kids asked me to run around with them. i babysat from 4 to 10:30, and normally charge 15 dollars w a 5 dollar increase per kid, so 20 dollars for 2 kids. Hi! Hope you had a great weekend, I just wanted to reach out because I haven't gotten my payment from Wednesday yet. I know you guys celebrate Good Friday and Easter so I totally get that it probably slipped off your radar but if you could Venmo me when you have the chance, that would be fantastic! Today 10:39 PM Hello Mae, Dan and I have been talking about it, and quite frankly, we do not feel comfortable paying you the full amount after you wore such an inappropriate clothing to our house. THe kids love you and we are more than happy to give you a second chance, but we cannot pay you more than 50$ after you wore that outfit. Wow, I had no idea you guys felt that way, I am so so sorry I made you uncomfortable. I just wanted to be in something flexible to run around in with Sarah and Eliza. That being said, 50 honestly does not feel like enough money for 2 kids and 7 hours. I understand you do not feel okay paying me full price, and I'd be willing to do half of what I normally charg !!! UPDATE: AIO for demanding to be paid after wearing something inappropriate to babysit neighbor/local Hi! So this is an update to the post I made last night about a babysitting fiasco. First of all, I had no idea it would blow up like that, from the bottom of my heart, I am so grateful for every single person who took time out of their day to write out a reply, it truly was so helpful!! If you didn't see that post, I'm Mae, I'm 15, and a parents I was babysitting for refused to pay me because they found my outfit inappropriate. Around the same time the post started to blow up, my mom sent out an email to my neighbor/the mother, she never got a response, which was not very surprising, as they do not get along very well due to opposing political beliefs and religions, etc (my mom is jewish, she's very catholic). A lot of people suggested taking my neighbor to small claims court, but where I am at, the price of even filling a claim is half the money I would have made, as well as th Marianne Today 9:20 PM Hi Marianne, I apologize for the double texting- I know your kids are on break this week, but you haven't responded to my text or my mother's email. I have been thinking about the last couple texts, and while I feel awful that I offended you and Dan, we had never gone over ground rules about clothing, and I do not think it is fair for you to go back on your word. I think that it is the best decision for both of us if you pay me in total and we can put this behind us. Today 10:41PM Mae - I have known you since you were a little girl and it is quite disheartening to see that you have grown up into another version of your mother. Neither the less, Dan has venmo'd you 150$. I will take that as a compliment, I think my mother is an awesome person. I received the money, thank you. iMessage I will take that as a compliment, I think my mother is an awesome person. I received the money, thank you. You were so lovely growing up andwe always prayed you would find
