My Grandma had yet another stroke last week, but didn't tell anyone about the fact that she couldn't use her left hand until yesterday when my Aunt was visiting her. They think she has lost the use of that hand permanently. I might be driving down to SoFl if she doesn't get released from the hospital by Friday.

that's nice of you.  hope she's ok.

My grandpa, the one who had the fall back in early August, is a real oxymoron. He'd been told specifically he shouldn't drive for three months, but guess what he's doing... I mean seriously, you just can't reach him.

Oh, he did promise me not to drive anywhere "too far", but this day he drove like 300 km.

Just make certain you aren't in the car when he drives.  Otherwise, you might get in a bad accident.

Seriously, I'm worried every time he's sitting behind the wheel. I'd rather be in the car with him when he drives so I may be able to react, than leave the stubborn old man on his own.

I mean I've considered disabling his damn car, but given how stubborn he is, it wouldn't accomplish anything.

I hate to ask for advice online, but anybody got an idea?

"Lose" his Keys for a couple of months, and when the time he should've started driving comes in is when you can "find" them.

Yeah, that's the problem. He'd more likely get a heart attack or move the mountains to get the new one asap.

OK, I understand him: if I were him, I'd be pretty eager to function normally again, but just month ago he was basically immobile. "But I've been driving for 50 years", is his usual response. So f**king what? I'm 28 but if I had such an accident, I'd be precluded from doing some normal stuff for a couple of months as well.

I can't watch him permanently.

I am in Istanbul Airport on a layover right now. The seat pocket on my flight here had a pamphlet called "FETO's coup attempt in Turkey" which was an 80-page government account of the coup and why the US should extradite Gulen - of course entirely in English.

Do you know anyone nearby that could help watch him?

Looks like not only my RL first name had been revealed to the forum, but I've got sucked into the Atlas again. Thanks "Damian93", you asshole.

Hey everyone. I'll be gone from the forum for a while, probably until around Christmas or so, while I'm out of the country. Hopefully the recent invaders have left by the time I return. Until then, farewell.

Today I got into an argument with one of my professors about Infowars. He tried to argue that writing people off as "conspiracy theorists" is a tool that the powers that be use to keep people in line. As if to imply that I'm trying to appease "the man" by calling Alex Jones (and, more specifically in this case, Paul Joseph Watson) nucking futs.

He wasn't even showing an Infowars related video, it was PJW talking about why pop music is vapid, and I raised my hand and said "I'd take what this guy says with a grain of salt, because he's literally nuts"
