She killed one of her kids, and would have killed two, in order to get an anus on her face.
But then, who wouldn’t? Priorities, priorities.

Hernandez was getting a lip filler procedure at the Always Beautiful Med Spa Sunday, according to reports. Those same reports say she didn’t check on her children until two and a half hours later.
“In a normal person, it’s not gonna happen,” said Gricelda Anaya.
Anaya works next door and saw people scrambling into the building to try to save the boys.
“What we see on the camera is that they’re trying to put cold water right here on the reception, and it was something very sad that never had to happen.”
Those scrambling people are probably going to have some kind of PTSD now too.
Oh and Dad’s in prison for some other unspecified reason.
FirstCircle@lemmy.mlOPto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Baby dies after California mom leaves him in car to get lip filler on 101-degree day, police sayEnglish0·9 days agoLeaving your baby children alone in a running car … you parents out there … clue me in, but isn’t this the pinnacle of irresponsibility, even on a cool day? I thought “you don’t leave kids alone in a running car” was a widely-known and accepted principle, probably since cars were invented. Fold into that the fact that the kids would be in a hazardous environment (protected only by the integrity of the A/C system) as well as in an unprotected environment (car break ins maybe, kidnapping, crashes (even in a parking lot), battery fires …), why would anyone think it would be preferable to leave one’s kids in such a situation, when
Earlier in the day, Hernandez had texted the nurse performing her treatment to ask whether she could bring her children, to which the nurse responded, “Sure if you don’t mind them waiting in the waiting room,” according to the police report.
No, no, much more convenient to leave them in SoCal sun in a parking lot in your car, for hours. And all this just to get your duck lips. FFS.
FirstCircle@lemmy.mlto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•How much spacing while stopped at a red light?English0·9 days agoI leave a couple of feet between the front of my Miata or Wrangler and the next car ahead. I’ve been driving since the late 70s and this is the first I’ve heard of the “botton of the tires” rule of thumb. It wasn’t taught back in the day (is it, widely, now?) and it doesn’t make much sense to me since it’s a function of the size and the shape and height of one’s vehicle, which can vary greatly, whereas I know where my front bumper is and I can (usually) clearly see where the rear of the car in front of me is, and hence create the appropriate gap. Sure, I might leave more space if I’m on a steep hill and think the person in front might have a manual (another Miata for example) but that’s rare.
Up until very recently people seemed to always keep just a couple of feet between cars at stops like I did. This business of “a car length or two” seems like a very new thing - the past 5 years mostly - and that led me to think it’s some kind of stupid new internet cancer. Probably some “influencer” telling his/her audience that you should put your dominance on display at stoplights by pissing people off and preventing them from getting through intersections. Or putting your dominance and alpha-hood on display by blocking them from getting into the turn lane at all. Anything to get attention, anything to show that you’re not (truly) a nobody, even when you are, because you have power!
I’ve only been rear-ended once in 45 years of driving. Being a d*ck on the road in order to (allegedly) absolutely f-ing MAXIMIZE your own self-perceived “safety” (from highly unlikely events) at the expense of everyone else is a totally modern-American sort of thing to do I guess. But I’m not doing it.
FirstCircle@lemmy.mlto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•How much spacing while stopped at a red light?English0·9 days agoThough, of course, don’t use them until you’re already halfway through the turn or lane change. It’s not like the signal is to show your intention, it’s to assert that You Had The Right Goddamn It to have just made that abrupt and dangerous maneuver that you just made. You signaled, so all’s OK, you’re in the right, no matter what happens.

The sight of a Blue Screen of Death will also be a thing of the past, too. Microsoft is now officially redesigning its BSOD so that it’s black and not blue.
My only interaction with UW in Spokane has been through their volunteer portal. https://www.volunteerspokane.org/ This UW portal offers a one-stop dashboard for people who want to volunteer (anywhere in the region, not with UW specifically) to hook up with nonprofits/charities that need volunteers. A lot of local orgs use this portal for outreach and volunteer communications.
I’ve no idea if the local orgs are now going to get cut off from that service or if the national UW will keep it running and maintained. If the local orgs lose access it’s going to cause a lot of pain I think - not many of them are going to have the IT skills available to replicate it or to migrate to a different volunteer platform and even if they did it will cost them money.
