Its by design. If they have an unruly person they want to just get rid of every once in a while, kill them behind closed doors and dump the body in the swamp during a faux escape attempt. Then during the media circuit that surrounds the death you just claim the prisoner was killed by alligators in the surrounding swamp after an attempted escape.
The children yearn for the mines
Having grown up catholic in rural Illinois, it’s just a case of mixed messaging and infiltration. Think of it like this:
You inherited a chili recipe—representing your morality and culture—from your parents. Growing up, you helped make it every week, so you know the flavors well. In your family’s version of chili, beans—symbolizing religion—were always the most important ingredient. Peppers—representing politics—were known, but they were more of a background note, never central.
Fast forward a generation, and a certain group starts promoting the idea that chili must be spicy. They want to sell their own particular kind of pepper—a harsh, punishing version of God—and they push this idea aggressively. They use people your parents trust, who already like spicier chili, to reinforce the message.
Suddenly, everyone around you starts loading their chili with these peppers because they’re told it’s the only way to avoid bland chili—blandness, in this case, representing hell. The fear of tasteless chili becomes a powerful motivator.
People have trouble separating the art from the artist. I don’t blame them. It’s tough sometimes. I used to really love Kanye before he turned out to be a nazi. Watch the Throne and Graduation are fantastically produced albums with some excellent songs. Same with College Dropout.
I still listen to them when they come up in my playlists but the magic is pretty well gone. I think that he was and is mentally ill so with the right people around him he probably wouldn’t have turned into such a piece of shit, but here we are.
Really? Dumper sticker was right there…
What are you not getting about this situation? She traveled with no issue for 2 decades before this. Why would you need to travel with expungement documents in the first place. That doesn’t apply to travel at all, which is why she was released to get them. Being detained by ICE indefinitely isn’t a “that sucks…but that’s just how it goes sometimes” situation. And that’s why there’s an article about it. But if you want keep licking boots, you might just get to the center. I won’t stop you.
So leaving a town to you is equivalent to the travel it takes to leave the country?
Other than distance traveled, the time afforded to travel said distance, and providing the requisite documents needed to cross a border(which she had), yes. The article doesn’t mention how often she traveled to Ireland. Maybe she went every other year to celebrate Christmas with her family.
Especially when you say “I never equated hometown and country. I merely used it as a metaphor” I never did… but did. Your two sentences directly contradict.
No, using a metaphorical comparison does not literally equate the two things being compared. A metaphor suggests that one thing is like another in some figurative or symbolic way, not that they are literally the same.
She thought her stuff was expunged. Which clearly it wasn’t since apparently they pulled it up. If it’s still in the records somewhere…
It says in the article that she presented them with documentation of the expungement of her charges. So if she was able to provide them with documentation, it clearly took place. It shouldn’t take a law degree to figure out that having your criminal records expunged doesn’t wipe any trace of them from government databases. It only removes them from the public eye and prevents them from coming up during background checks for things like housing or employment. The government would still have a record of her prior convictions.
Was she leaving the country legally? Yes.
Was she re-entering the country legally? Yes.
Did she ever have a warrant out for her arrest during those times that she left the country? No.
That’s the bottom line. But for the sake of the argument, I never equated hometown and country. I merely used it as a metaphor to show you how travelling to her home country doesn’t qualify her as a flight risk.
Because that’s a broad generalization that’s based on the assumption that being well-traveled makes you more likely to flee the law. Her continual travel to and from her home country has no bearing on whether or not she poses a flight risk. If that were true, anyone that moves away from home and regularly travels by car to and from their hometown should be held in custody.
You’re aware that ‘flight risk’ isn’t a literal term right? Like, it doesn’t mean that there’s a chance they’re going to board a plane and fly away lol
This would be funny if it wasn’t so depressing.
I think I understand now. Thank you! I will be changing my paths then. It’s kind of a moot point since I’ll change my paths anyway, but for the sake of my own curiosity, i have a follow up question. Feel free to disregard it if you don’t feel like taking the time to answer.
Hypothetically, my docker setup only allows jellyfin to see /mnt/user as /storage. So jellyfin would report the path to Morbius as being:
/storage/hdd1/media/movies/Morbius_all_morbed_up.mkv
when in all actuality it would be:
/mnt/user/hdd1/media/movies/Morbius_all_morbed_up.mkv
My intuition tells me that the file path that jellyfin “sees” would be the security risk. So “/storage/hdd1/…” Is that correct?
Can someone ELI5 this for me? I have a jellyfin docker stack set up through dockstarter and managed through portainer. I also own a domain that uses cloudflare to access my Jellyfin server. Since everything is set up through docker, the containers volumes are globally set to only have access to my media storage. Assuming that my setup is insecure, wouldn’t that just mean that “hackers” would only be able to stream free media from my server?
You better not be talking about my Polish-Canadian girlfriend 😤
Oh cry me a river…sorry you’re being inconvenienced. We should have told Ukraine that while we understand that their country is being invaded by a superpower and their citizens are being raped and murdered and their children are being trafficked to Russia; they should put more attention into making sure their drones don’t look too similar to RC hobbyist planes 🙄
Hey, on the bright side she has an opportunity to make a sone money. Either through a potential lawsuit (doubt.) or the smarter option: oil on canvas artwork of her experience in the detention center. Her story is global now and the notoriety may boost the sale price.
Thanks! I’ll have to check it out when I get back home. I’ll leave this post up as a resource cause I do think there’s some valuable information in here still.
Top Gear UK seasons 1-22
I’ve checked and that’s not true of the public trackers I use.
Maybe? But 122 is way different than 114 in this case.
