I had no idea Forrest's actor was in so many roles. Great post.

Oh that makes sense. If you really are afraid he could be violent towards you, it might be best to visit him or have a phone call and hash it out. Could be he was misled growing up, I wouldn't put it past the father putting those ideas in his head.

Don't get me wrong I feel very bad for him, but it sounds like he ended up like his father. Clearly he doesn't want your help and even thinks you were a bad guy in his life. I would never do the whole "pick on your brother" thing and would do everything to protect mine but if he behaved like your's does then what can you really do?

Also if he does go after your mom and stepdad, so what? They sound like they deserve it anyways.

Little edit: the rest of the commenters sound even colder actually. Like damn, sure, OP's brother might not be his legal responsibility but I don't think he should completely abandon him. Clearly there is a bond and he cares for him in spite of how the brother is acting (otherwise the post wouldn't exist).

OP, maybe send the brother a letter: offer to help him (if you still want to, otherwise wish him well or something) or to mutually cease contact. It sounds like his life has just spiraled out of control, so he may appreciate having a choice.

Admiral Forrest erasure. He was a real one, always had Archer's best interest and gave his life protecting someone even if that someone had been a major dick to his organization.

Oh good point, never been to the delis myself. I didn't realize they had a mini food court, thought it was just a place to buy meats or their sandwiches.

I've never seen a Publix with a drink dispenser. Where are these usually?

As stupid as it is, hoping to see the results. It does sound like a neat experiment but even if it is "successful" (my definition probably differs from their's), a good teacher is more than just a learning tool. AI would never replace the empathy and dedication.

Wild fucking read. Was thinking maybe his first girlfriend was using a pseudonym (Turkish-born named Susan Banks?), but conveniently no one has met all 3 of his activist girlfriends. The last bit about the guy deleting all his social media posts AND his last "girlfriend" doing the same after IGN reached out is glaringly suspicious.

Which is a shame because there was a crumb of goodness. The space cops plot with the future doctor trying her best to be retired was such a unique idea.

Jody got done so dirty by the writers her entire run. 💀

Fandom containment is breaking. Beginning of a new trend in Ten Forward?

Mutating from going too fast is a better origin than an immortal mysterious child from a mysterious universe that forgot all their memories of said origin.

Oh that's nice it wasn't a hugely shared sentiment. I skimmed a lot since I was trying to find the specific incident and all the details like deaths of babies and lynchings made it seem like the people of the island were for it since, like you mentioned, practically an open air prison. Unfair the island was burdened with so many but the conditions of the camp are awful.
