Replacing the much lamented 'On My Mind' profile option, this thread is for musings, jottings, whimsies, preoccupations and the rest of the thesaurus for anyone to jot down anything they please.
I can't remember what the maximum character count was before, can anyone else? But anyway it wasn't very many so let's keep to that.
I add Hershey's syrup to whole milk to make the chocolate milk my grand-nephew loves and it still has fewer carlories than the 2% chocolate milk served with happy meals or at his school.
I took a RAT just because I still have some and they will be expiring anyway but it come up negative, so as far as I know I've still not had that 🤷🏻♀️
Oh never mind.. I figured it out
Did you contact Ashley to report that you couldn't log in?
I guess this will turn off and turn away members.
That happened a few weeks ago with Needs posts
burnt's posts have disappear for me too - no connection to the above comments,
I don't agree. I think it's good people point it out directly. It's for the benefit of other forum members, too. You don't need to waste your time reading the thread, because someone else kindly warned you this poster is not a serious poster. I don't think it's good that we need to worry about being banned, when pointing out directly that something's very off with a post. Off, as in, someone's fooling around, trying to waste people's time.
In fact, I would even say it's the right thing to do even if you risk being banned. You just saved some people from wasting their precious time. Even 2 minutes spent on a non-serious-post, is 2 minutes of very precious time wasted. I applaud the people who warned others, and who risked being banned. Well done.
Why not evacuatate the area?
Surely the Police could out-run someone using a walker?
Or just wait until she needed a nap??
I've had to talk down or disarm many a dementia patient - fists, a butter knife here & there, a handbag or cane being swung around. But no experience being confronted with a sharp knife or other lethal weapon.
I imagine, the mildest tazer zap would be aimed at the wrist to drop the knife? As the very last resort.. But I wasn't there...
From news report;
"She's either one hell of an agile, fit, fast and intimidating 95-year-old woman, or there's a very poor lack of judgement [from] those police officers," PwD President Nicole Lee told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC).
"She needed somebody to... handle her with compassion and time, not Tasers."
Agree. Very very sad.
