Encephalotrocity@biglemmowski.winto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•My folks want to give ancestry.com a try what do I need to know?English12·13 days agoKnow that you are not just sharing your own genetic information, but also that of your blood relatives within 2 generations.
Anyone from your grandparents and their offspring can be matched to the DNA you send in. Surpise, your father has an illegitimate child and the will is now in dispute. Oh, looks like DNA of one of your relatives turned up in a criminal investigation so now most are being investigated. That’ll be a fun discussion at the next get together…
There is far more information packed in your genes than most laypeople understand. IMO this whole industry should have been legislated to either force destruction of all data once the report is generated or the consent of all your family members be a prerequisite.

Only time I was searched was in the Fall following 9/11 coming back from a hunting trip. Got pulled aside at the border, presumably because I was a teenager in a new pickup, and searched by US National Guardsman with automatic rifles.
Their leader came up to me while I watched 4 other guys diligently search every accessible crevice in the cab, underside and wheel wells. He seemed confused why I had been set aside for search. I shrugged and just said “he pointed so I pulled over” Took 10 minutes tops and they didn’t damage anything (thank goodness. They could have taken knives to the cushions). Haven’t had a problem at the border since. FTR white Canadian.
My advice? Don’t be rude, and don’t assume they have a bone to pick with you. If you are or do you WILL have a problem and people can cry ‘rights’ and ‘lawsuit’ all they want but I for one would rather avoid BS than antagonize. It is possible to assert your rights and not be an asshole. Thread that needle.

Encephalotrocity@biglemmowski.winto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is it wrong to not want to find a job if I never had a childhood?English114·26 days agoThere’s no frustration in my comment. Why would I even be frustrated? I’m speaking plainly about reality. Taking offense to that is a luxury OP doesn’t have, and the faster they realize this the better their outcome will be. In my experience working with people in OP’s position, trying to soften the message gets interpreted as platitudes, insecurity, and untrustworthyness which only gives them reasons to doubt or blow off the information. No bueno.
Encephalotrocity@biglemmowski.winto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is it wrong to not want to find a job if I never had a childhood?English477·26 days agoWho said life is fair? Like that place you finally obtained after years of searching? Want to keep it? Probably need money to pay for it. Being bitter about it won’t change that fact so you need to figure out how to accept it and move on to improving your quality of life. Get an education/learn a trade, get a hobby or 2, make friends along the way and get some therapy from a professional to work on your trauma.
Choosing to be miserable instead of facing reality and working with it will only make things worse for you. Your misery will fester and grow. People will sense it and either avoid you or try to take advantage of it. Your past will dictate your future. I don’t think you want that so good luck.
