Forget the chicken. What came first, the tardigrade, or the egg? Well, in this case, I think the tardigrade would have to exist first.

Seriously. Try visiting a foreign country and asking for a Pepsi. The closer you get to the equator, the more likely they don’t sell Pepsi. They have Coca-cola, though.

I guess that was their belated apology for having burned a cross on the lawn of their distant Catholic relatives. You gotta love the South.

Until about a day later when you realize it had absolutely no fiber and you should have paired it with a salad, or something, instead of eating just cheese.

Exactly. This Fuentes guy is trying to join a club that would immediately deny him admission. He really needs to self reflect. Everyone should be laughing at him.

Why are our tax dollars paying any of these people? I’d rather take their salaries and divide it amongst people who donate blood, platelets, plasma, and bone marrow for free. Tell these political figures that if they truly cared about Americans they’d do their job for the same pay as some first year, public school teacher who only has a bachelor’s degree, while teaching in one of the toughest areas of a big city. I’m so sick of all these spoiled, dolled up, high class [public figures] being paid to run their mouths. Sorry, I had to replace a word in that comment to stifle how I truly feel.

I’m sure they used other countries like a tool, but it doesn’t mean they saw them as equals.

Right. I think grouping people by color would make much less sense than grouping people by something that actually matters in the event of an emergency. People have spent so many years hyper-focused on race, religion, color, and sexuality. When someone drops to the ground from cardiac arrest, no one cares about those things. What they should be asking is, “what is this person’s blood type, in the event they require heart surgery and need blood transfusions?” No one ever seems to care about the differences in people that can determine life or death at some point. No one ever cares about what really matters until it’s too late. Society wants to divide itself? That’s great! Let’s do that by blood type so everyone can live near their potential blood donors, and people they could potentially help in medical emergency. Everyone will just downvote this, I’m sure, and go right back to discussing racial supremacy and who said what to hurt someone else’s feelings, in the political arena.

The fact that Spain allowed a Muslim mosque to be built across from Cathedral of Saint Mary the Royal of the Almudena just makes me question it. Also, the fact that Hitler was NOT Catholic, makes me think he wouldn’t consider a country of Catholics and Muslims to be on the same level as his people. Hitler’s plan for a master race was to make a race of blond haired, blue eyed people; traits of Norway and Sweden. I will never understand Hitler on that one. He was a short, O+ male, with dark hair who wanted everyone to resemble tall, broad shouldered, blond haired, blue eyed, people who typically have an rh- blood type. I’m surprised the man didn’t throw himself into one of those camps.

I don’t think Hitler viewed the Spanish as equals. That’s all I’m saying.

With a last name like Fuentes, the Nazis would have probably thrown him in a camp. I don’t understand why some people are white supremacists when they aren’t completely white. It’s like, are they racist against themselves? It’s like watching Dave Chapelle’s stand up routine about the blind, black, white supremacist. Are people like Fuentes for real?

Not a crime. I used to mix peanut butter in my low fat, unflavored, Greek yogurt and then mix in jam. I did this after weight training as a high protein breakfast. The jam just added some flavor and sweetness.

Every time I stand near the kitchen and then later start to call his name, he hides. He knows his antibiotic is in the fridge.

UPDATE on Blue (lemmy.world)
submitted 1 week ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

This isn’t the best picture of him, but it shows how well his face is healing. He will most likely have scars. The fur appears to be regrowing now. He has used more than half of his amoxicillin medication for his jaw infection. The veterinarian still wants to pull teeth some time in July. He will need an appointment in June for a second round of antibiotics and an exam of his gums. If the gums look less inflamed, he will be scheduled for surgery. Blue has been more active lately. I assume he feels better. Thank you all for your well wishes and your contributions to his medical fund. I have not touched it since paying for his last appointment. If there is money remaining after his next appointment, and surgery, I will be donating the rest of it, in person, to our local SPCA.

So, I understand that some people can have the same name, but this isn’t the case with my husband. My husband’s name is so unusually spelled that he was the only person, besides his biological father, who had that first and last name combination on a birth certificate. This is a fact that he shared with me when we first started dating. He seemed pretty proud of that, and I always thought it was funny. After I married him, and changed my last name to his, I became the only woman in America that had my first and last name on record. It’s just that odd of a last name, so please trust me on this one when I say that someone is using his name.

The profile on instagram, that I just discovered, displays a profile picture of an older man, standing, or sitting, beside a woman of about the same age. I wanted to report it to instagram, but there wasn’t an option to report the possibility of a spouse’s stolen identity. It is definitely not my husband’s account. The friends listed in the pages he follows, are not any names that I recognize from his group of friends. He would never lose contact with some of his closest friends.

I am worried.

UPDATE: I think I found the name of one of my husband’s “friends” who have been using his ID and other property. I looked up the last name on Ancestry.com and the first name also appeared. Yep. My fifth cousin and his sons/relatives, have possibly been using his identity. I don’t know if they befriended him years ago, knowing they were related to me, or if this is new. They are older than both my husband and I. Either way, I’m glad I sold the house. They could be trying to take over it completely, like they did to the car I co-owned with my husband. They don’t seem to need any of his things. They apparently own a very profitable business in our local area. WTH, right?

ORIGINAL POST:

I had been debating it. I have been separated from my husband for years, and he has allowed his friends to use his identity and personal property while apart. I don’t really know if that’s legal, because they also carry his ID in their wallet at times. They would also threaten to have me labeled as crazy if I told police they weren’t my husband. This happened each time I was with one of them, and they had his license with them. People close to me told me to let it go. I just assumed it was a cruel joke by my husband. I figured he was under someone new and wanted me to get lost. Out of embarrassment and fear of being labeled up as crazy by his friends, I just let it go.

After explaining all of this to other Lemmy readers, I was encouraged to take action and report him missing. I don’t want to waste the time of law enforcement, if he is just playing a cruel joke on me, and happens to be with a new woman. So, I emailed the law enforcement office in his home town (town where he went to high school and his mother still resides). I told them everything that I just explained in this post, about the situation. I am now awaiting a reply. It isn’t an official police report. It is just an inquiry. If they tell me not to file a report, then I’ll just let it go, I guess. I don’t know who is working for that law enforcement office. It could even be some of his former classmates from high school. It would be terrible if they are in on his joke (if that’s what this is). It isn’t a joke to me, though. I’ve been physically abused by both my husband, and his friends since about 2012. My husband never hit me before we married. We never even argued. It’s scary how people can change.

Anyway, I hope they can find him. Maybe I can file for divorce for a third time. Maybe this time he’ll appear at all court dates. I was raised Catholic, and this won’t look good to everyone, but at this point, it will look even worse if he gets into another fight, or has a DUI and someone dies. I could be liable for his actions.

Early 2000’s. Is this old enough for old school cool? We all decided to go as a group for prom, with no one having a date.
