It fully depends on if you’re doing it at your house, or the house of the child you are watching, and the state.

But the rules don’t matter as long as no one is a narc!

“For instance, most states and territories do not require an in-home child care provider to be licensed if they provide care on an occasional basis, provide care in your home, or are related to the children in their care.”

Which my thing “might” break.

Oh man I loved when Evermore (RIP) had fire dancers. But it was funny because for their major events they would hire super skilled pros, then their daily shows they would have a staff member that they had taught or was a hobbyist before being hired. They were fun and skilled, but the difference was very obvious in variety of tricks and number of failed tricks.

Which makes sense considering their financial troubles, but imagine being that fire dancer on staff being like “Super hyped for tonight’s show!” and them just being like “Ahh, did no one tell you? We hired someone for five times your nightly wage to do tonight’s show cause they’re a lot better”

“For instance, most states and territories do not require an in-home child care provider to be licensed if they provide care on an occasional basis, provide care in your home, or are related to the children in their care.”

That is why I gave the “it depends”

So a baby sitter baby sitting and the home of the child is completely legally fine. If you are doing it at your own home, or watching unrelated children, it can be iffy.

That’s why I said it depends on state/situation.

A little bit of legally dubious action to pay the bills and siphon money from billion dollar companies never hurt nobody!

$50 dollars for THREE, UNASSEMBLED, and UNPAINTED minis? Yeah man, I ain’t gonna question why the texture of your warhammer minis are different. Game on.

Editing ChatGPT generated content sounds soul crushing tbh.

That makes sense! If they are similar to my dog, I probably wouldn’t notice that much, and if they provided the food and stuff, I wouldn’t need to charge much.

Well getting nice furniture from a hobby sounds pretty chill regardless!

Every now and then my eyes pop at the cost of new furniture.

Oh yeah all the influencer side hustles are straight trash.

My friend if you actually made $1000 a day working 2 hour, you wouldn’t be uploading here my dude!

I mean, unless they are ferrying weapons across the great salt lake, I don’t think it applies to me XD

But if Californians wanna disrupt all trade on the west coast I wish them all the luck.

That is very reasonable take. I mean I don’t have kids so a rifle in a gun safe probably is harmless. If it never gets used, it’ll just be a funny story of that time Ericbomb got paranoid and bought a gun because of encouragement from some weirdos off fake Reddit.

Owning a gun scares me since it’s been decided that if a cop sees you touch a gun they can kill you and it’ll almost certainly be ruled fine. Maybe I’ll get something for home that stays here and just keep taking my pepper spray around.

2A so important right?

But, good points… I ahh, may or may not already be housing some friends that were kicked out of their houses for life style differences. Such as you know, not being Mormon.

But wonderful points!

You know what? That does help, thank you. This feeling you get when something goes terribly wrong that says “do something” can be good, but also very stressful because WTF are we supposed to do about an election like this?

I mean I hope they investigate, considering you know, the whole attempting to over throw the government thing. For all we know there already is evidence and they just are collecting. But yeah, not holding my breath for that one. I always knew we were bad at punishing criminal billionaires, but I would have never guessed “Rich man attempts to over throw government, is found guilty of various crimes and rape. Is handed government for his trouble.”

But sounds like we do have to wait and watch for at least the moment. I do hope maybe a few republican senators will want to slow things down, or at least want to pretend to be the sane ones.

Ahh man all I got was a disabled mom and prison dad.

Think I can trade him for a rich dad to a rich person who wants to claim they had a rough child hood?

I remember 14 years ago in high school I was kicking around the idea of becoming a court reporter (type out everything said in court) , but was told “nooo look at Siri, that’ll totally replace all that soon!”

No, no it’s not. We don’t want things like that making choices like that.

Also was told “C and C++ is too old, learn something newer”

People get too excited about new tech, not thinking about why the old tech stands the test of time.

Ooh and how many women apparently wear the HIGHEST quality water proof make up at all times!

Realistic hacking scenes would be funny.

“Okay I’m in”

“Wait… how?”

“Oh I figured out the default passwords and naming conventions for new employees awhile ago.”

Funnily enough I got my college to change password policies because for a report for one of my classes I wrote about how stupid it was that all new users passwords were First intial + last initial + last four of social security number, with usernames being firstname + lastname + year. Since they had no max number of attempts on logins, and didn’t prompt you to change password on logging in, it took a few minutes to get into anyone’s account once you knew their name. (That school was very incompetent, and they are closed now)

OR

“Give me 20 minutes, I’m on hold with IT. They’ll reset the password and tell me it if I give them an employee ID, dob, and name. Which I see clearly on this guys facebook picture where he has his badge visibile.”

Or a hacking guy trying to brute force for days. Then the “no nonsense” guy goes out for 20 minutes, and comes back with it and refused to answer questions. Oh wait… that’s just XKCD.

Hehe that scene was the one that made me think of this post.

NCIS should just dive into self parody at this point.

Seeing a movie where they flip in a practice dummy and actually make me feel like they broke ribs to make it happen would be legit.

If the ribs aren’t bending, ain’t no way the heart is pumping!

Also having the CRP patient be absolutely trashed afterwards. If you’re getting CPR, it’s cause you dead, and they are trying to bring you back to life by beating life back into you. You were dead, then got probably the most painful beating of your life. The rest of the movie should be you recovering in a hospital.

I’m not even a chef but they’ll also turn in a full kitchen without regard sometimes.

If you’re turning, you keep that garbage pointed NOT where you are turning.
