Having been involved in a conversation about this sort of family dynamic with police, I wouldn’t recommend it. Unless OP is in a gigantic city, he is not going to receive any help from the police that actually protects him. What will happen is the police will listen to his story, then go talk to the other parties involved to get their story.

If an officer believes him right off the bat, they can/may hold off on talking to the rest of the family and tipping them off that OP is making these claims, but even in that case OP still may be stuck in the house. They might be able to connect him to a shelter. Might. The problem is that he is male. Male domestic violence shelters are almost certainly going to be a shit-show at best, and 95% chance there isn’t a shelter for males of domestic violence within any distance that the cops would help him get to.

The best bet for OP that involves cops is to follow Chonk’s advice: https://links.hackliberty.org/post/3089471/5115602

Use the cops for what they are actually good at: protecting you in the exact moment they are there. Anything else is going to be a time-consuming investigation, unless the brother/father literally admit to planning to kill OP.

Law enforcement already can just subpoena/get-a-search-warrant-for them all they want. Why would they bother with paying a fee?

For anyone not believing this, go to https://consumer.risk.lexisnexis.com/consumer and do that consumer report. They are (depending on your state) required to tell you everything they have on you, and they include where it came from. It’s eye-opening.

Sure, facebook has been doing it for years. They build shadow profiles on people, allegedly ‘only’ (massive air quotes around that one) so if those people ever join they’ll have links and photos and such already waiting for them.

It definitely counts as an unreasonable change. If you quietly accept it, or quit due to it, you won’t get the help. If you set things up in your favor by replying to the mandate with language along the lines of ‘such a significant change to working conditions requires a renegotiation of my contract’ then you’re placing yourself in a good position to say that you were constructively dismissed, not that you quit.

A change from working wherever you are (which could be hours away if you were full remote) to the office is just as significant as being moved from one metropolis to another.

Okay, so for the new folks with networking, how do you set up a honeypot wifi? Have a (second) router powered on with no connection? Or is it something you can set up with one router?

Your math is off. You said one million per day, but your 1/10 of a billion would have it as one million per year

I use odysee, and so far it’s been nice.

Or that fungus that makes the snails look like they’ve simultaneously become interested in the rave scene and inflation.

I have no doubt that the USA has fingers in the pie of public sentiments elsewhere.

Russia has learned the power of Japan.

Try vesktop. Maybe that will help.

Don’t blueball me like that.

The people who I’ve tried to get on NoScript seem to have the brain capacity of goldfish. If the site doesn’t instantly work, it’s as if the sky has fallen and there is no way to convince them to pay attention to which scripts are actually needed.

It’s a rare breed that is willing to put up with toggling different scripts on and off. I’ll also acknowledge that too many people (including me) are in a giant rush. For work-type stuff, I have the laptop without noscript, because sometimes I do need something to work absolutely right now.

Short bursts, finding shade, and lots of water and wind (box fans, as the other fella mentioned). A good hat helps immensely. If you can duck inside someone’s AC, you take the fresh air like it’s the last soup you’ll ever have and you suck it in.

I mean… have you seen the scathing reports on scientific papers, psychology especially? Peer review doesn’t catch liars. It catches bad experimental design, and it sometimes screens out people the reviewers don’t like. Replication can catch liars sometimes, but even in the sciences that are ‘hard’ it is rare to see replication because that doesn’t bring the grant money in.

That’s the way a lot of hobbies have gone. I know for a fact that I can find a dozen motorcycle rides near me for tomorrow if I went on facebook, while the statewide forum I follow has less than 5 little groups that mostly just meet for a lunch or dinner.

I don’t want to point the finger at any age group, but people 50+ seem to be successfully captured by facebook, Millennials are a mixed bag, and Z is definitely on tiktok and instagram. They all look at me like I’m crazy if I mention a dedicated forum.

FUCK YOU NO I’M NOT. HANG ON… yaaaaaaaaawn NOW WHERE FUCKING WAS I?!

What about before the trial, you know, like during the investigation that has to happen before a trial can be called?

I think you’re using your mouth wrong, mate. Try holding that stuff in.
