Activated Carbon
What is Activated Carbon?

Activated carbon, also known as activated charcoal, is a form of carbon that has been processed to have a large surface area and porous structure. It is commonly used for its adsorption properties, which allow it to trap and remove impurities and contaminants from air, water, and other substances.

Why is Activated Carbon trending?

1
Effective Adsorbent
Activated carbon has a high adsorption capacity, meaning it can effectively trap and remove a wide range of impurities, including toxins, chemicals, odors, and pollutants. This makes it a valuable tool for purifying air, water, and other substances.
2
Water and Air Purification
Activated carbon is widely used in water and air purification systems. It can remove chlorine, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), heavy metals, and other contaminants from drinking water and improve its taste and odor. In air purification, activated carbon filters can remove harmful gases, odors, and volatile organic compounds, improving indoor air quality.
3
Medical and Pharmaceutical Applications
Activated carbon is used in medical and pharmaceutical applications due to its ability to adsorb toxins and drugs. It is commonly used in emergency rooms to treat drug overdoses and poisonings. It is also used in water filters for dialysis machines and in gas masks to filter out harmful chemicals.
4
Skin and Oral Care
Activated carbon is increasingly used in skincare products, such as face masks and cleansers, due to its ability to draw out impurities and toxins from the skin. It is also used in toothpaste and mouthwashes to remove stains, bacteria, and bad breath-causing compounds.
5
Environmental Remediation
Activated carbon is used in environmental remediation to remove pollutants and contaminants from soil and water. It can effectively adsorb organic compounds, heavy metals, and pesticides, helping to clean up contaminated sites and protect ecosystems.

A misconception about VOCs, HEPA filters and activated carbon filters
I see this getting talked about a lot. If you're concerned about VOCs then you should get a HEPA filtration device... This is infact incorrect. HEPA filters are not designed to remove VOCs in anyway shape or form. The purpose of HEPA is the removal of dust and pollens. If you want to stop VOCs, you need activated charcoal. submitted by /u/Defiant_Bad_9070 to r/3Dprinting [link] [comments]

[Final Update]: AITAH for demanding to check my brother's girlfriend's bags before they leave my house?
I am NOT OOP. 2 OOPs are: 1) u/kaylaharper90 (account now deleted) & 2) Mysterious-Cow-3423 Originally posted to r/AITAH and OOP 2's page Previous BoRUs: #1 [Final Update]: AITAH for demanding to check my brother's girlfriend's bags before they leave my house? NEW UPDATE MARKED WITH ---- Trigger Warnings: death of a parent, descriptions of car accident, emotional abuse and manipulation, theft, accusations of infidelity, stalking, harassment, child endangerment, assault, DUI RECAP Posted by u/kaylaharper90 (now deleted) Original Post: April 30, 2025 A bit of background here, I (39F) have a brother (32M) who I'll call Chase. Chase has been with this girl (35F) that I'll call Vivian for almost 2 years now. About a month into their relationship, Vivian got pregnant with my nephew who is now almost a year old. Vivian also has 2 daughters (5F and 8F) from a previous relationship. Her daughters are very close in age to my daughter (7F) and up until last weekend everyone got along fine. They live in a different state than us but come to visit fairly often and stay with us because we have the extra room. Last weekend they came to stay again and about an hour before they left my daughter noticed that a few of her favorite toys were missing. The girls were playing all weekend so I didn't think much of it and offered to help her look for them. After about 20 minutes of searching we could not find the toys anywhere so I asked Vivian's girls if they remembered where they were playing with them last. The girls said no but acted a little guilty about it. I asked Chase and Vivian about it and Chase said he saw the exact toys in the room that Vivian's girls were sleeping in. We went to check and they were not there. He asked Vivian if she had moved them when she packed the girls things that morning and she said they were not there. We went back into the living room and I saw Vivian's girls huddled close together over a backpack and quickly closed it when they saw we were there. Chase asked the girls again if they knew where the toys were and this time they didn't say anything and just looked at their mom. Chase reached for the bag and Vivian lost it. She started yelling at me how dare I accuse her daughters of stealing and she tried to snatch the bag away. Chase opened it and there were the missing toys plus a few more. I was absolutely furious. I told her I wanted to see what else she had and demanded she open the 2 suitcases. She said that was an invasion of her privacy and tried to take them and leave. Chase stopped her and made her open them. She had taken several tops, a few skirts and dresses, and a brand new pair of Nikes that belonged to my daughter. I took everything back and told her she and her girls were not allowed back into my home. I have since received several texts from her and a few unknown numbers telling me I embarrassed her and upset her girls because they were promised the items. Chase is upset with her but said I was too mean to her in front of everyone and that I could have handled the situation more privately. I do feel awful that her girls left crying but AITHA for how I handled the situation? Edited to add: Answers to a few questions I keep getting: I am not sure who "promised" the girls the items, she would not elaborate but I'm assuming it was her. She wanted me to pull her aside into a different room away from Chase and the kids to talk the situation out. Also yes, I'm 99% sure the baby is his, he is almost a carbon copy of my brother when he was a baby. I do not believe the girls knew they were stealing the things, I really believe that their mom told them I said it was ok. We have never had problems with the girls before this, they really seem to be good kids. Also, I'll be talking with my brother tonight or tomorrow to discuss things further. Edit #2: I will be speaking with my brother in about an hour. I have been in contact with someone that knows her and a lot has come to light. I will update again if my brother says I can as it's his life and not mine. Vivian is not at all who she claims to be. Update 5/1: Thank you all so much for the responses. I'm sorry I haven't been able to get to everyone's comments as I really didn't think this would take off. I talked with my brother last night and showed him a lot of your comments and suggestions and thanks to someone in the comments we now know a lot more about Vivian and the kind of person she really is. I will not be able to tell you all everything, but I can tell you that my brother and nephew are now staying with us while he gets a DNA test and proceeds to cut ties with her. I may have more to give you all in the coming days or weeks depending on what the paternity test says. Again thank you all so much! AITAH has no consensus bot, OOP 1 was NTA Relevant Comments Commenter 1: NTA - holy shit that is a hot mess. You should not feel bad for their crying but you might talk to your brother about his terrible choice in partners. OOP: Our family never really loved her but she has never done anything before this (to my knowledge) that was a major red flag. Unfortunately even if he does leave her he's stuck for another 17 years Commenter 2: NTA, I may not have thought to open the suitcases, I would have thought the girls just stole the toys but the clothes makes it seem like it was Vivian's act, especially if the girls "were promised" them. Who else would promise them? Your Brother, his wife and children/stepchildren shouldn't be invited back. Anyone saying anything to you can host them themselves or stfu. OOP: I normally wouldn't have thought to check either but the way she grabbed them and tried to leave set off all the warning bells in my head. Commenter 3: And who was there to be embarrassed in front of? It sounds like it was just your two families. You don't want to be called out as a thief, don't steal. OOP: I embarrassed her in front of Chase and my "perfect daughter" as she called her OOP on not letting Vivian and her daughters back into her house OOP: They are no longer welcome back. My brother and nephew can stay anytime, but he'll have to leave them at home. Commenter 4: So she promised your daughter’s clothing, shoes and toys to her children. Steals them, gets caught and you’re the bad guy. Nope! OOP: In her words "your daughter has more stuff than all three of my kids combined" Commenter 5: NTA. But I would like to add that the timing of her quick pregnancy is suspect, with her behavior of stealing your daughter’s things and acting entitled to taking them, it feels like she hooked up with your brother for financial reasons. Your brother may consider requesting a paternity test if/when he decides to end the relationship. OOP: My family thought the same thing. The baby does look exactly like my brother so I do believe he is his, but you are probably onto something with the baby trapping. We knew her as a causal fling until she ended up pregnant. Are Chase and Vivian married? OOP: They are not married thank goodness. I'm hoping to talk some sense into him Where is the girls' father? OOP: As far as I know the girls' dad has been in and out of the picture for the last 4 years. My brother pays for everything and provides for them. Commenter 6: 👀👀 She was using a fake name??? And has a record?? Holy shit - - I was just gonna say you're NTA but also like. Wow she's so much more evil than I expected, I'm so sorry you have to deal with this. OOP: Not necessarily fake. Apparently she was married before the girls' dad and was telling us that the first husband's last name was her maiden name. I'm honestly sick because I now know we know absolutely nothing about this woman who has had access to my home for the last year and a half. Comments that lead to newer updates below Mysterious-Cow-3423: This story sounds very familiar but not for the reasons others are saying.... Do the initials KAS apply to this post at all? OOP: Please message me Commenter 1: Look, I don't know if KAS and OP know each other, and damn, do I want to, but if not, I think we need the story of KAS anyway. Mysterious-Cow-3423: It's unfortunately her. Editor's note: u/Mysterious-Cow-3423 will be mentioned as OOP 2 to avoid confusion with the first OOP Posted by u/Mysterious-Cow-3423 Original Post: The Legend of KAS: May 1, 2025 Well this has certainly blown up but who am I to deny the people of what they want? KAS lore! For obvious reasons I'm going to be a little vague with certain details for privacy reasons. Mainly I don't want this crazy train coming back into my life and hopefully you'll understand why by the end. So buckle up bitches, this one is long and wild. And please don't judge me, we don't associate with ANY of these people anymore and haven't for over a decade. Also, I will say that she is a very pretty girl and has usually gotten whatever she wants from men so she's not used to hearing no. 2005 - When I was 18 my (then boyfriend now husband) and I were invited to a house party hosted by a friend of a friend To celebrate graduation. We knew about half the people there and had been to the house a handful of times before. We were all hanging out in the basement and after a few drinks I went upstairs to use the bathroom and that's where I met KAS who was 14 at the time. The bathroom door was open so I walked in and turned on the light but to my surprise there she was with some guy, in the bathtub, doing things you typically wouldn't do in an unlocked room. I apologized and found a different bathroom. About an hour later she came downstairs where the rest of us were and locked in on my boyfriend and made a beeline for him. Keep in mind I am right next to him. She tries to sit on his lap and when he pushes her off of him she pops back up like a demented jack in the box and immediately starts screeching about how she was "just playing" "you aren't even hot" and "you could do so much better than her" to him. We stayed another hour or so and left. A week later she was blowing up the guy's phone that she hooked up with telling him she was pregnant. When he didn't believe her (because honestly who would after just a week) she tried to press charges for rape. I do know my boyfriend and I both had to talk to a police officer because we were both there and I was the one that walked in on them. I don't know what happened after that but the charges were eventually dropped. 2009 - My husband and I are 22 and she is 18. We are now married and living on the east coast because he's in the military. We come home for his parent's 4th of July party and get tasked with going to get more ice. He runs in to pay and I'm standing by the ice chests outside waiting for him and guess who shows up. She walks straight up to me and says something along the lines of she's glad I finally learned my place and that her and my husband have been so happy together for the last year. She also made some very vulgar comments about their sex life. I don't even have time to react to her when he comes back outside and she goes pale and then bright red. This crazy bish then has the audacity to look at my husband and ask him what he wants for dinner that night and tried to "remind him" of plans they have that weekend to go to the lake with her family while he just stands there staring at her like a dumbass and then asks if he knows her. I absolutely lose it and almost piss myself from laughing as she stalks off. Once we are back to his parents he gets a FB friend request from her and deletes it. Over the period of 3 days she sends him 4 or 5 friend requests so he blocks her. We go back to NC the following week and forget all about her, again. 2010 - I am now 7 months pregnant with our daughter and we fly back to our hometown one last time before she's born of course run into KAS again at Walmart. I know how it sounds but we're from a town of about 5000 people so you kind of see everyone all the damn time whether you want to or not. I'm noticeably pregnant as I'm about 7m along, I'm also only 5'2" and at the time weighed about 115lbs so it was very clearly a baby bump. She is with her sister and they seem to be following us but we try to ignore them. We are now checking out and again they are right behind us still acting like children but in her defense she was 19ish at the time. We are still ignoring them and her sister says fairly loudly "He'll dump her now that she's fat". We continue to ignore them and leave the store. Later that day a friend tells us to check facebook and lo and behold there is a picture of me in the snack aisle with the caption "when you catch your surrogate buying nothing but junk food" and so many comments agreeing how horrible I am. This psycho had been telling everyone that I was the surrogate for her and my husband's baby. We filed an RO the next day. 2018 - We move back to our hometown and buy my family's farmland to start our own cattle business (highly don't recommend if you like to be able to make and keep plans, see your family, or take vacations). As far as we know she has gotten married and is living her life away from us. About 6 months into us being back we get a letter in the mail from a family lawyer saying my husband needs to present himself for a paternity test and we were being sued for child support. Apparently the baby girl came out white and KAS's husband was not. She told her husband that my husband had raped her and that it was his baby. Charges were filed and thankfully we were still in North Carolina at the time of conception and the army is very meticulous about know where their soldiers are at all times. The rape charges were immediately dismissed as was the paternity test and child support. We filed another RO and installed cameras all over our property. Her husband ended up adopting the baby and they stayed together. 2020 - She makes the front page of our town paper. Apparently KAS had had another baby girl who also did not match her husband's skintone. He kicked her and the kids out and one night she came back to his house, in full view of his security cameras, in her own car, with the kids and set his porch on fire. The husband got temporary custody of the girls for about 2 years while KAS was in jail. 2023 - She gets the girls back and dips out of state. The husband files a police report and everyone is looking for her. Unfortunately the husband passes in a car accident the same year. 2025 - I'm doom scrolling on reddit and see a story that sounds very familiar and here we are. Reasons I thought it was her from the other post: Her and the girls ages We knew she had a baby boy recently She has a history of theft and immediately playing the victim when caught We still have a few mutuals on FB so I do see her posts from time to time and knew she moved in with the new guy (OP's brother from the other post) about a year and a half ago. Well I think that's the meat and potatoes of it. I'll be around later this afternoon to answer any questions. I may have some of the dates off but hell, my memory is trash these days and I try not to think about her or any of those crazies. Relevant Comments Commenter 1: Her fixation on your husband is so scary! Hopefully she continues to leave you alone. I also hope her kids turn out ok because between the other story and this one it sounds like she has a many personal growth opportunities OOP 2: She has tried to reach him via social media a few times but we don't really do FB or anything like that anymore and just try to live pretty private lives. I really think part of it is jealousy because he's one of the few that never fell for her "charms". Like I said it's a very small town and she really is a pretty girl. Commenter 2: Be prepared, she's crazy and she'll come back when she reads the story on Reddit and realizes it's about her and maybe reads this too. OOP 2: We have enough to get another RO at any time. We also have security cameras all over our property and a few dogs that are the embodiment of "wish a mf would" Commenter 3: As batshit crazy as this chick is, I'm super glad to see you and your husband have stuck by each other's side. That part makes me happy for you 😊. OOP 2: Thank you! He's my best friend and has been since 8th grade. The crazier thing is he's not the only one she's latched onto over the years but I don't feel comfortable telling other people's stories. I'll get ahold of the other guy she's been obsessed with and see if he will allow me to tell his story on here. What was KAS like when growing up? Was she displaying that kind of behavior? OOP 2: I agree with you 100%. But at what point do you grow up and see what you're going is absolutely insane? I do know her childhood wasn't great, they were pretty low income so they did struggle but I know her parents and her siblings and aside from the one sister, they are all really good people. One of her brothers owns a very successful trucking company that we actually have a contract with for our cattle business. Her other sister is a nurse at our local hospital. KAS is the baby of the 5 of them and was kind of allowed to do whatever she wanted so I think that played into it too. OOP 2 responds to a comment about OOP 1 deleting account OOP 2: Yeah unfortunately psycho Sally found that one and this one. The original account has since been deleted unfortunately.   Update #1: May 4, 2025 (three days later) KAS update Hey all, this is probably going to be the last KAS update for awhile. It's been a rough 48 hours between some issues we're having on the farm due to 4 days straight of rain and KAS finding the posts about her. I'll try to be brief but give you guys an update as to what's going on. I have been in contact with the OP from the first post and have permission to include a couple updates from her situation as well. KAS has been arrested. Her girls are safe with OP's brother and they are all back at his house. She found the posts and went feral with comments and even a post which included a picture of my husband she took from my Facebook that I have since had to deactivate. We called our local sheriff department about the harassment and learned she had an active warrant. I was able to get in touch with OP to find out exactly where she was and they contacted the law enforcement agency in that area and they went and got her. We have pressed pressed charges as well. Right now she's looking at stalking, harassment, child endangerment, resisting arrest and assault on an officer, among the charges she already had pending. I knew what might happen if I responded to OPs post, but I do not regret reaching out to her or exposing her antics. What matters is everyone is safe and she is being held without bond. Update from OP: "The girls are safe with my brother and he has all 3 children. He has been awarded temporary guardianship and will be getting them into counseling in the coming week. I tried to press charges but as the items never left my home, I was unable to. We will have the results of the paternity test next week, as well, but no matter the outcome he will be trying to get full rights to my nephew." Additional Information from OOP 2: Guys. I have had several messages asking for a picture of her. Let me make this VERY clear, I will not be doing that. I will not be posting her picture on here. I will not be posting her picture in some random group on Facebook. I am trying to protect my family along with the family of the OP of the first post. Hell at this point I'm also trying to protect her girls. STOP ASKING FOR HER PICTURE AND PICTURES OF THE GIRLS Top Comments Commenter 1: You've done the right thing, you might have saved these girls from a lifetime with that scary woman so thank you for stepping out of your comfort zone to do what's right. I hope you get peace from her now, but as with most crazy people, that likelihood is slim. As for KAS, she needs help. Obviously she's not going to try to seek it on her own, but maybe now her kids have been taken off her, it might force her to do SOMETHING. Commenter 2: Holy smokes OP! I haven’t read anything this engaging in quite a while. I admire your integrity and wisdom. It sounds like your husband has those qualities as well. Too bad KAS was given looks but none of the really valuable stuff. You’re also a very articulate writer. Your random doom-scrolling just altered the fate of who knows how many people. Sometimes it’s difficult to see the benefits of having character and being good people when it seems like most of the world are cashing in or being heard for the opposite. I think smart people like you know this is the only way to live though. Your post makes me feel better about the world and happy you’re raising kids of your own. May the sun shine upon you, the wind at your back, and your crops and rivers pristine and bountiful. Commenter 3: What is the most important thing here is that the kids are fine and in a safe place. For a reason you came acros op's post, it was definitely the right thing to do you coming with all that information about KAS so everyone can find peace. Hopefully everything moves on to the right direction for everyone involved.   Update #2: May 7, 2025 (three days later) Good morning all. I have a couple updates for you but first we need to discuss some things. I appreciate all the love we are getting from this but some of you need to check yourselves. I will not be posting pictures of her. I will not be linking articles. I will not be posting mugshots. I will not be posting her court records. While yes, all of this is public record and can be found online, it will also expose OUR names, address, and personal information. If you ask, you will be blocked. If I have to block enough people I will delete this account and then no one will get updates. Sorry to be an ass but this is our lives, our home, and I have to put us and our children's safety first. I have also had a few questions on why we moved back with all of this going on every time we came home. This farm has been in my family for over 120 years and I will not be giving that up over her. Now on to the updates. KAS is still in jail and will be held there until her court date in the coming months. After which she will be transferred back to where she was arrested to face charges there that include child endangerment, resisting arrest, and assault on an officer. We have had a few people ask if we are safe and yes we are. We have security cameras that run 24/7 on all structures (barns, houses, sheds, garages, everything) out here both inside and out. And well yes part of the reason we have them installed was because of her, the main reason is we own a working cattle farm. Farm accidents happen all of the time and our insurance is a lot less if we have them so no, we're not just being paranoid like a few have hinted at. I mentioned in a comment that her brother owns a trucking company that we work closely with so I was able to fill him in on everything going. He is talking to OOP's brother to take in the girls and they have a family court hearing on Friday and will hopefully be living with their uncle soon. He is a really good guy and his wife is amazing. If they were anything like KAS they would not be working for us and I believe they are the girls' best option for a normal upbringing. Now onto the baby boy. Chase IS the father! He already has a lawyer and given the circumstances should be able to get full custody and rights to him going forward. I will update again after the hearing on Friday, as we will be going with him to help him get the girls. As far as I know KAS has not reached out to check on them since being arrested. Oh and no, her late husband's accident was not her doing. He was driving home one night after being at the bar and went off the road. He was found the next day and there were no signs of foul play. It was determined the most likely cause was he was intoxicated, an animal ran out in front of him and he swerved to miss it but hit a tree.   ---FINAL UPDATE---- Final KAS Post: October 27, 2025 (5.5 months later) Hey all, it's been a minute! I don't know if anyone I'm even cares anymore but I have a final FINAL update. The girls are now in the custody of their uncle (KAS's brother) and his wife. They started school this fall and doing absolutely great. They are a little behind but are so smart and catching up quick. Baby boy is with his dad and also doing great. KAS is locked up and will be for at least the next 3-5 years. She pled guilty to a lot which expedited the process but did reduce the jail time. She signed her rights away to the baby but not the girls. That is still on going unfortunately. Relevant Comments Commenter: Good update, OP! I hope things will start getting better for you and that other OP now that KAS is no longer an issue. I hope the girls aren't hurt by any of this and live a much better and happier life! OOP 2: Like I said they were a little behind academically and they do have a few behavioral issues but all in all they are really good kids. They are doing so much better than anyone expected and are in therapy. We even had them out to the house a couple times to see the new calves and they really enjoyed themselves.   DO NOT COMMENT IN LINKED POSTS OR MESSAGE OOPs – BoRU Rule #7 THIS IS A REPOST SUB - I AM NOT OOP submitted by /u/Choice_Evidence1983 to r/BestofRedditorUpdates [link] [comments]

A misconception about VOCs, HEPA filters and activated carbon filters
I see this getting talked about a lot. If you're concerned about VOCs then you should get a HEPA filtration device... This is infact incorrect. HEPA filters are not designed to remove VOCs in anyway shape or form. The purpose of HEPA is the removal of dust and pollens. If you want to stop VOCs, you need activated charcoal. submitted by /u/Defiant_Bad_9070 to r/3Dprinting [link] [comments]

[Final Update]: AITAH for demanding to check my brother's girlfriend's bags before they leave my house?
I am NOT OOP. 2 OOPs are: 1) u/kaylaharper90 (account now deleted) & 2) Mysterious-Cow-3423 Originally posted to r/AITAH and OOP 2's page Previous BoRUs: #1 [Final Update]: AITAH for demanding to check my brother's girlfriend's bags before they leave my house? NEW UPDATE MARKED WITH ---- Trigger Warnings: death of a parent, descriptions of car accident, emotional abuse and manipulation, theft, accusations of infidelity, stalking, harassment, child endangerment, assault, DUI RECAP Posted by u/kaylaharper90 (now deleted) Original Post: April 30, 2025 A bit of background here, I (39F) have a brother (32M) who I'll call Chase. Chase has been with this girl (35F) that I'll call Vivian for almost 2 years now. About a month into their relationship, Vivian got pregnant with my nephew who is now almost a year old. Vivian also has 2 daughters (5F and 8F) from a previous relationship. Her daughters are very close in age to my daughter (7F) and up until last weekend everyone got along fine. They live in a different state than us but come to visit fairly often and stay with us because we have the extra room. Last weekend they came to stay again and about an hour before they left my daughter noticed that a few of her favorite toys were missing. The girls were playing all weekend so I didn't think much of it and offered to help her look for them. After about 20 minutes of searching we could not find the toys anywhere so I asked Vivian's girls if they remembered where they were playing with them last. The girls said no but acted a little guilty about it. I asked Chase and Vivian about it and Chase said he saw the exact toys in the room that Vivian's girls were sleeping in. We went to check and they were not there. He asked Vivian if she had moved them when she packed the girls things that morning and she said they were not there. We went back into the living room and I saw Vivian's girls huddled close together over a backpack and quickly closed it when they saw we were there. Chase asked the girls again if they knew where the toys were and this time they didn't say anything and just looked at their mom. Chase reached for the bag and Vivian lost it. She started yelling at me how dare I accuse her daughters of stealing and she tried to snatch the bag away. Chase opened it and there were the missing toys plus a few more. I was absolutely furious. I told her I wanted to see what else she had and demanded she open the 2 suitcases. She said that was an invasion of her privacy and tried to take them and leave. Chase stopped her and made her open them. She had taken several tops, a few skirts and dresses, and a brand new pair of Nikes that belonged to my daughter. I took everything back and told her she and her girls were not allowed back into my home. I have since received several texts from her and a few unknown numbers telling me I embarrassed her and upset her girls because they were promised the items. Chase is upset with her but said I was too mean to her in front of everyone and that I could have handled the situation more privately. I do feel awful that her girls left crying but AITHA for how I handled the situation? Edited to add: Answers to a few questions I keep getting: I am not sure who "promised" the girls the items, she would not elaborate but I'm assuming it was her. She wanted me to pull her aside into a different room away from Chase and the kids to talk the situation out. Also yes, I'm 99% sure the baby is his, he is almost a carbon copy of my brother when he was a baby. I do not believe the girls knew they were stealing the things, I really believe that their mom told them I said it was ok. We have never had problems with the girls before this, they really seem to be good kids. Also, I'll be talking with my brother tonight or tomorrow to discuss things further. Edit #2: I will be speaking with my brother in about an hour. I have been in contact with someone that knows her and a lot has come to light. I will update again if my brother says I can as it's his life and not mine. Vivian is not at all who she claims to be. Update 5/1: Thank you all so much for the responses. I'm sorry I haven't been able to get to everyone's comments as I really didn't think this would take off. I talked with my brother last night and showed him a lot of your comments and suggestions and thanks to someone in the comments we now know a lot more about Vivian and the kind of person she really is. I will not be able to tell you all everything, but I can tell you that my brother and nephew are now staying with us while he gets a DNA test and proceeds to cut ties with her. I may have more to give you all in the coming days or weeks depending on what the paternity test says. Again thank you all so much! AITAH has no consensus bot, OOP 1 was NTA Relevant Comments Commenter 1: NTA - holy shit that is a hot mess. You should not feel bad for their crying but you might talk to your brother about his terrible choice in partners. OOP: Our family never really loved her but she has never done anything before this (to my knowledge) that was a major red flag. Unfortunately even if he does leave her he's stuck for another 17 years Commenter 2: NTA, I may not have thought to open the suitcases, I would have thought the girls just stole the toys but the clothes makes it seem like it was Vivian's act, especially if the girls "were promised" them. Who else would promise them? Your Brother, his wife and children/stepchildren shouldn't be invited back. Anyone saying anything to you can host them themselves or stfu. OOP: I normally wouldn't have thought to check either but the way she grabbed them and tried to leave set off all the warning bells in my head. Commenter 3: And who was there to be embarrassed in front of? It sounds like it was just your two families. You don't want to be called out as a thief, don't steal. OOP: I embarrassed her in front of Chase and my "perfect daughter" as she called her OOP on not letting Vivian and her daughters back into her house OOP: They are no longer welcome back. My brother and nephew can stay anytime, but he'll have to leave them at home. Commenter 4: So she promised your daughter’s clothing, shoes and toys to her children. Steals them, gets caught and you’re the bad guy. Nope! OOP: In her words "your daughter has more stuff than all three of my kids combined" Commenter 5: NTA. But I would like to add that the timing of her quick pregnancy is suspect, with her behavior of stealing your daughter’s things and acting entitled to taking them, it feels like she hooked up with your brother for financial reasons. Your brother may consider requesting a paternity test if/when he decides to end the relationship. OOP: My family thought the same thing. The baby does look exactly like my brother so I do believe he is his, but you are probably onto something with the baby trapping. We knew her as a causal fling until she ended up pregnant. Are Chase and Vivian married? OOP: They are not married thank goodness. I'm hoping to talk some sense into him Where is the girls' father? OOP: As far as I know the girls' dad has been in and out of the picture for the last 4 years. My brother pays for everything and provides for them. Commenter 6: 👀👀 She was using a fake name??? And has a record?? Holy shit - - I was just gonna say you're NTA but also like. Wow she's so much more evil than I expected, I'm so sorry you have to deal with this. OOP: Not necessarily fake. Apparently she was married before the girls' dad and was telling us that the first husband's last name was her maiden name. I'm honestly sick because I now know we know absolutely nothing about this woman who has had access to my home for the last year and a half. Comments that lead to newer updates below Mysterious-Cow-3423: This story sounds very familiar but not for the reasons others are saying.... Do the initials KAS apply to this post at all? OOP: Please message me Commenter 1: Look, I don't know if KAS and OP know each other, and damn, do I want to, but if not, I think we need the story of KAS anyway. Mysterious-Cow-3423: It's unfortunately her. Editor's note: u/Mysterious-Cow-3423 will be mentioned as OOP 2 to avoid confusion with the first OOP Posted by u/Mysterious-Cow-3423 Original Post: The Legend of KAS: May 1, 2025 Well this has certainly blown up but who am I to deny the people of what they want? KAS lore! For obvious reasons I'm going to be a little vague with certain details for privacy reasons. Mainly I don't want this crazy train coming back into my life and hopefully you'll understand why by the end. So buckle up bitches, this one is long and wild. And please don't judge me, we don't associate with ANY of these people anymore and haven't for over a decade. Also, I will say that she is a very pretty girl and has usually gotten whatever she wants from men so she's not used to hearing no. 2005 - When I was 18 my (then boyfriend now husband) and I were invited to a house party hosted by a friend of a friend To celebrate graduation. We knew about half the people there and had been to the house a handful of times before. We were all hanging out in the basement and after a few drinks I went upstairs to use the bathroom and that's where I met KAS who was 14 at the time. The bathroom door was open so I walked in and turned on the light but to my surprise there she was with some guy, in the bathtub, doing things you typically wouldn't do in an unlocked room. I apologized and found a different bathroom. About an hour later she came downstairs where the rest of us were and locked in on my boyfriend and made a beeline for him. Keep in mind I am right next to him. She tries to sit on his lap and when he pushes her off of him she pops back up like a demented jack in the box and immediately starts screeching about how she was "just playing" "you aren't even hot" and "you could do so much better than her" to him. We stayed another hour or so and left. A week later she was blowing up the guy's phone that she hooked up with telling him she was pregnant. When he didn't believe her (because honestly who would after just a week) she tried to press charges for rape. I do know my boyfriend and I both had to talk to a police officer because we were both there and I was the one that walked in on them. I don't know what happened after that but the charges were eventually dropped. 2009 - My husband and I are 22 and she is 18. We are now married and living on the east coast because he's in the military. We come home for his parent's 4th of July party and get tasked with going to get more ice. He runs in to pay and I'm standing by the ice chests outside waiting for him and guess who shows up. She walks straight up to me and says something along the lines of she's glad I finally learned my place and that her and my husband have been so happy together for the last year. She also made some very vulgar comments about their sex life. I don't even have time to react to her when he comes back outside and she goes pale and then bright red. This crazy bish then has the audacity to look at my husband and ask him what he wants for dinner that night and tried to "remind him" of plans they have that weekend to go to the lake with her family while he just stands there staring at her like a dumbass and then asks if he knows her. I absolutely lose it and almost piss myself from laughing as she stalks off. Once we are back to his parents he gets a FB friend request from her and deletes it. Over the period of 3 days she sends him 4 or 5 friend requests so he blocks her. We go back to NC the following week and forget all about her, again. 2010 - I am now 7 months pregnant with our daughter and we fly back to our hometown one last time before she's born of course run into KAS again at Walmart. I know how it sounds but we're from a town of about 5000 people so you kind of see everyone all the damn time whether you want to or not. I'm noticeably pregnant as I'm about 7m along, I'm also only 5'2" and at the time weighed about 115lbs so it was very clearly a baby bump. She is with her sister and they seem to be following us but we try to ignore them. We are now checking out and again they are right behind us still acting like children but in her defense she was 19ish at the time. We are still ignoring them and her sister says fairly loudly "He'll dump her now that she's fat". We continue to ignore them and leave the store. Later that day a friend tells us to check facebook and lo and behold there is a picture of me in the snack aisle with the caption "when you catch your surrogate buying nothing but junk food" and so many comments agreeing how horrible I am. This psycho had been telling everyone that I was the surrogate for her and my husband's baby. We filed an RO the next day. 2018 - We move back to our hometown and buy my family's farmland to start our own cattle business (highly don't recommend if you like to be able to make and keep plans, see your family, or take vacations). As far as we know she has gotten married and is living her life away from us. About 6 months into us being back we get a letter in the mail from a family lawyer saying my husband needs to present himself for a paternity test and we were being sued for child support. Apparently the baby girl came out white and KAS's husband was not. She told her husband that my husband had raped her and that it was his baby. Charges were filed and thankfully we were still in North Carolina at the time of conception and the army is very meticulous about know where their soldiers are at all times. The rape charges were immediately dismissed as was the paternity test and child support. We filed another RO and installed cameras all over our property. Her husband ended up adopting the baby and they stayed together. 2020 - She makes the front page of our town paper. Apparently KAS had had another baby girl who also did not match her husband's skintone. He kicked her and the kids out and one night she came back to his house, in full view of his security cameras, in her own car, with the kids and set his porch on fire. The husband got temporary custody of the girls for about 2 years while KAS was in jail. 2023 - She gets the girls back and dips out of state. The husband files a police report and everyone is looking for her. Unfortunately the husband passes in a car accident the same year. 2025 - I'm doom scrolling on reddit and see a story that sounds very familiar and here we are. Reasons I thought it was her from the other post: Her and the girls ages We knew she had a baby boy recently She has a history of theft and immediately playing the victim when caught We still have a few mutuals on FB so I do see her posts from time to time and knew she moved in with the new guy (OP's brother from the other post) about a year and a half ago. Well I think that's the meat and potatoes of it. I'll be around later this afternoon to answer any questions. I may have some of the dates off but hell, my memory is trash these days and I try not to think about her or any of those crazies. Relevant Comments Commenter 1: Her fixation on your husband is so scary! Hopefully she continues to leave you alone. I also hope her kids turn out ok because between the other story and this one it sounds like she has a many personal growth opportunities OOP 2: She has tried to reach him via social media a few times but we don't really do FB or anything like that anymore and just try to live pretty private lives. I really think part of it is jealousy because he's one of the few that never fell for her "charms". Like I said it's a very small town and she really is a pretty girl. Commenter 2: Be prepared, she's crazy and she'll come back when she reads the story on Reddit and realizes it's about her and maybe reads this too. OOP 2: We have enough to get another RO at any time. We also have security cameras all over our property and a few dogs that are the embodiment of "wish a mf would" Commenter 3: As batshit crazy as this chick is, I'm super glad to see you and your husband have stuck by each other's side. That part makes me happy for you 😊. OOP 2: Thank you! He's my best friend and has been since 8th grade. The crazier thing is he's not the only one she's latched onto over the years but I don't feel comfortable telling other people's stories. I'll get ahold of the other guy she's been obsessed with and see if he will allow me to tell his story on here. What was KAS like when growing up? Was she displaying that kind of behavior? OOP 2: I agree with you 100%. But at what point do you grow up and see what you're going is absolutely insane? I do know her childhood wasn't great, they were pretty low income so they did struggle but I know her parents and her siblings and aside from the one sister, they are all really good people. One of her brothers owns a very successful trucking company that we actually have a contract with for our cattle business. Her other sister is a nurse at our local hospital. KAS is the baby of the 5 of them and was kind of allowed to do whatever she wanted so I think that played into it too. OOP 2 responds to a comment about OOP 1 deleting account OOP 2: Yeah unfortunately psycho Sally found that one and this one. The original account has since been deleted unfortunately.   Update #1: May 4, 2025 (three days later) KAS update Hey all, this is probably going to be the last KAS update for awhile. It's been a rough 48 hours between some issues we're having on the farm due to 4 days straight of rain and KAS finding the posts about her. I'll try to be brief but give you guys an update as to what's going on. I have been in contact with the OP from the first post and have permission to include a couple updates from her situation as well. KAS has been arrested. Her girls are safe with OP's brother and they are all back at his house. She found the posts and went feral with comments and even a post which included a picture of my husband she took from my Facebook that I have since had to deactivate. We called our local sheriff department about the harassment and learned she had an active warrant. I was able to get in touch with OP to find out exactly where she was and they contacted the law enforcement agency in that area and they went and got her. We have pressed pressed charges as well. Right now she's looking at stalking, harassment, child endangerment, resisting arrest and assault on an officer, among the charges she already had pending. I knew what might happen if I responded to OPs post, but I do not regret reaching out to her or exposing her antics. What matters is everyone is safe and she is being held without bond. Update from OP: "The girls are safe with my brother and he has all 3 children. He has been awarded temporary guardianship and will be getting them into counseling in the coming week. I tried to press charges but as the items never left my home, I was unable to. We will have the results of the paternity test next week, as well, but no matter the outcome he will be trying to get full rights to my nephew." Additional Information from OOP 2: Guys. I have had several messages asking for a picture of her. Let me make this VERY clear, I will not be doing that. I will not be posting her picture on here. I will not be posting her picture in some random group on Facebook. I am trying to protect my family along with the family of the OP of the first post. Hell at this point I'm also trying to protect her girls. STOP ASKING FOR HER PICTURE AND PICTURES OF THE GIRLS Top Comments Commenter 1: You've done the right thing, you might have saved these girls from a lifetime with that scary woman so thank you for stepping out of your comfort zone to do what's right. I hope you get peace from her now, but as with most crazy people, that likelihood is slim. As for KAS, she needs help. Obviously she's not going to try to seek it on her own, but maybe now her kids have been taken off her, it might force her to do SOMETHING. Commenter 2: Holy smokes OP! I haven’t read anything this engaging in quite a while. I admire your integrity and wisdom. It sounds like your husband has those qualities as well. Too bad KAS was given looks but none of the really valuable stuff. You’re also a very articulate writer. Your random doom-scrolling just altered the fate of who knows how many people. Sometimes it’s difficult to see the benefits of having character and being good people when it seems like most of the world are cashing in or being heard for the opposite. I think smart people like you know this is the only way to live though. Your post makes me feel better about the world and happy you’re raising kids of your own. May the sun shine upon you, the wind at your back, and your crops and rivers pristine and bountiful. Commenter 3: What is the most important thing here is that the kids are fine and in a safe place. For a reason you came acros op's post, it was definitely the right thing to do you coming with all that information about KAS so everyone can find peace. Hopefully everything moves on to the right direction for everyone involved.   Update #2: May 7, 2025 (three days later) Good morning all. I have a couple updates for you but first we need to discuss some things. I appreciate all the love we are getting from this but some of you need to check yourselves. I will not be posting pictures of her. I will not be linking articles. I will not be posting mugshots. I will not be posting her court records. While yes, all of this is public record and can be found online, it will also expose OUR names, address, and personal information. If you ask, you will be blocked. If I have to block enough people I will delete this account and then no one will get updates. Sorry to be an ass but this is our lives, our home, and I have to put us and our children's safety first. I have also had a few questions on why we moved back with all of this going on every time we came home. This farm has been in my family for over 120 years and I will not be giving that up over her. Now on to the updates. KAS is still in jail and will be held there until her court date in the coming months. After which she will be transferred back to where she was arrested to face charges there that include child endangerment, resisting arrest, and assault on an officer. We have had a few people ask if we are safe and yes we are. We have security cameras that run 24/7 on all structures (barns, houses, sheds, garages, everything) out here both inside and out. And well yes part of the reason we have them installed was because of her, the main reason is we own a working cattle farm. Farm accidents happen all of the time and our insurance is a lot less if we have them so no, we're not just being paranoid like a few have hinted at. I mentioned in a comment that her brother owns a trucking company that we work closely with so I was able to fill him in on everything going. He is talking to OOP's brother to take in the girls and they have a family court hearing on Friday and will hopefully be living with their uncle soon. He is a really good guy and his wife is amazing. If they were anything like KAS they would not be working for us and I believe they are the girls' best option for a normal upbringing. Now onto the baby boy. Chase IS the father! He already has a lawyer and given the circumstances should be able to get full custody and rights to him going forward. I will update again after the hearing on Friday, as we will be going with him to help him get the girls. As far as I know KAS has not reached out to check on them since being arrested. Oh and no, her late husband's accident was not her doing. He was driving home one night after being at the bar and went off the road. He was found the next day and there were no signs of foul play. It was determined the most likely cause was he was intoxicated, an animal ran out in front of him and he swerved to miss it but hit a tree.   ---FINAL UPDATE---- Final KAS Post: October 27, 2025 (5.5 months later) Hey all, it's been a minute! I don't know if anyone I'm even cares anymore but I have a final FINAL update. The girls are now in the custody of their uncle (KAS's brother) and his wife. They started school this fall and doing absolutely great. They are a little behind but are so smart and catching up quick. Baby boy is with his dad and also doing great. KAS is locked up and will be for at least the next 3-5 years. She pled guilty to a lot which expedited the process but did reduce the jail time.

Conservatives Discuss Trump’s Plan to Open 59% of National Forests to Logging
Context/Backstory The Trump administration introduced tariffs on all countries last week and is issuing orders to help mitigate the impact. One of them involves the Security of Agriculture, as Brook Rollins announced they are moving to eliminate environmental safeguards on more than half of the nation’s national forests, opening up 59% of the land for logging and boosting timber and lumber production. The official reason from the White House cites the danger from wildfires as the reason for the change. Today's Discussion /r/Conservative's post about this is titled Trump administration opens up over half of national forests for logging and it shoots up to the front page. The post is hard to document as it's heavily censored, despite being Flaired Users Only™️. Unddit shows that 370 of the 496 comments, 74.6% of them were removed by the moderation team and the post itself has been removed. Unddit link | Reveddit link Some Choice Excerpts Initial spat I’m having a hard time feeling great about this. Over half? Bruh. Logging drops the price of lumber which gets homes built, which we massively need. Wood is also a renewable resource that should be replanted right after being cleared. A pine plantation takes about 20-30 years to regrow. So, if you plan to boost logging, it is a short-term solution. You are going to need lean years to follow to make up for it. Necessary for national security. Or, would you prefer Canada holding back or leveraging us with high priced timber? We can find sources of nearly every raw material we need. We just need to stay the hell out of our own way, and allow ourselves to sustainably harvest what we need again... I'm 100% ok with this. We have SO MUCH untapped land. I can tell you didn't read the article. The article did not make clear whatsoever if there are any actual mechanisms in place for loggers to consider the displacement of wildlife due to ongoing logging activity. If you don’t understand that they don’t just point at trees and poof they disappear, you’re a moron. This is highly impactful activity. Umm, what? This is part of the use of national forests since their inception. They can and have managed this forever. Dems over time have forgotten that some management of resources is one of the roles the national parkforestry system was founded for. Yes, there are 150 or so national forests, over half of them can be utilized by loggers. It doesn't mean that half of all the trees can be cut down. LOL Good grief look at all the hater brigade Bad move Bad move. We need to protect our national forest. They are national treasures. If it was clear-cutting, I'd agree. But proper logging is about removing excess trees for lumber AND reducing fire danger. Agreed, logging done in the national forests is done with responsible forest management. Trees are a renewable resource and we can cut a lot of trees in national forests without touching a tree over 15 years old. The forest service already has areas that are open for cutting. What about Yosemite? I felt the same thing when he fired rangers and national park workers. Kids in foreign countries literally learn about Yosemite in their schools. Yosemite will be there with or without the rangers. As in, the geographical location? Yes. But not in the quality we know now. Literally replant every tree And this is why nothing little is made here. We don't mind anything, there's no forestry because environmentally we don't want to ruin anything. So we import every material and/or the final product instead of just making it here. At some point we need to realize we need to stop being stupid morons and just do things ourselves. You can literally replant every tree cut down Exactly this. We can use the abundant national resources with sustainably in mind. A discussion on the environment Forests need active management to mimic natural factors we humans have stopped. Thinning of forest improved health and help reduce fire intensity. I'm all for forest management but I do not support logging our national forests. Old growth trees convert less CO2 into oxygen than new growth. only trees who are actively growing have a net positive impact on oxygen production. One of the most environmentallly impactful ways we can reverse man made global warming is to effectively manage forests, keeping them in a constant state of growth and not stagnation. This doesn't mean clean stripping of entire swaths of forests. But selectively replacing old growth forest with young actively growing forest will provide both economic AND environmental boosts. Cutting down old forest is not good for the C02 budget. It takes a enormous amount of years before new growth comes close. Where is your source on this? Brigadiers who nothing about forest management out in full force! -56 as of right now. Although I assume there could be some “conservatives” who unaware of modern force practices that may be down voting me. I would like to have a conversation about this matter please engage without downloading. Conservative discusses Teddy Roosevelt Spits in the face of teddy. Not a fan of this one. What is conservative about not conserving? national forests aren't related to teddy, those are national parks by comparison national forests are intended to be used (logging, mining, ranching). they're not like the national parks which are a different entity with a different purpose (and under a different department) Yeah fuck this shit. Teddy would be disgusted by this. I'd say bring him back but Republicans would accuse him of being Socialist and Democrats would accuse him of being far right. He'd never get anywhere. Remind me again why the people who want to protect the forests are anti gun fucktards? That's literally the only reason I vote anymore. It’s a renewable resource when harvested responsibly, which is how national forests are logged. Did you know that hunting is part of conservation? Do me a favor and look up the definition of conserve. And guess what, TEDDY was a hunter and a conservationist. By your logic, he didn't conserve because he killed wild game. Holy shit, educate yourself. Hunting and logging arent the same thing It's the immigrants fault No to this. Being in the outdoors is such a joy. Hunting trips with my father in public forests are some of my best childhood memories. I don’t want that to be taken away from our children too Should have thought about that before importing so many millions of people that need housing. The outdoors won't exist if trees get cut down? Is that your argument? You will likely never see half of the national forests, let alone miss the trees in those forests that can be harvested. You know what's cool about trees, they grow back. And when they get cut down, the growth that occurs after they are cut down produces new habitat for wildlife. Now you are arguing like a Leftist Whelp, that's not good. It's good if you understand forest management and conservation. Was the order in regards to forest management and conservation? Yes, they are targeting high risk forests to mitigate fires. Trumps been talking about this since the paradise fires in California when he started talking to foresters in an effort to get newsom to reverse califonrias horrible fire management policy. Ah, so that was the only reason for this. Not lumber. Well, I guess count me wrong then. 2 things can be true dude. Their choice of forests is delibrate, we need to reduce fire risk as dipshit environmentalists have increased the risk due to bad forest management. And we need to increase lber production to bring down prices and add more high paying jobs to the market. So they are specially targeting at risk Forrest areas: “Most of those forests are considered to have high wildfire risk, and many are in decline because of insects and disease.” It's so dishonest how they word these articles andit's crazy how many people don't even bother to read them too and that's likely why the titles are so sensationalized That doesn’t mean that giving them to the timber industry is a good solution Yes it does, those trees can be used to build houses and make paper rather than increasing fire risk and creating GASP.. Carbon Dioxide! And you’re clearly a low IQ individual if you think the only thing affected by this is the trees themselves. Why not? The timber industry has an interest in maintaining their production for long term productivity. We're way past the era of clear cutting expansionism. The timber industry cares about tree production. Not animal habitat, not pollution, not ecological conservation. I'm sorry, does a wildfire give any f's about such things? How about invasive diseases? Seriously, tell me you know less about natural ecological systems without telling me directly so. Why? It doesn't make it bad either. Would you rather the government pay to get rid of the overgrowth or would you rather companies who think they can make some money do it for us? I would rather profit be irrelevant to the initiative of preserving habitats, wilderness, and undeveloped public land. That is a non stance. Either we rely on local authorities to clean out overgrowth or we pay companies to do it. This way we can do the latter without paying anything. I'm really disappointed with the pearl clutching conservatives lately. Have you never heard of the Bureau of Land Management, or the Forest Service? Fucking moron talking about pearl clutching, can only comprehend two possibilities given to him by other people. Have you heard of inefficient government? Can't make a good argument and then uses the tried and true "but we have a useless bureau for that!" You know these bureaus suck, but to win internet points you invoke them. Yes, you are pearl clutching and now you are arguing like a leftist. Other Singular Takes How much do you want to pay for your books? You can tell who in this thread who has spent time in National Forests vs who hasn’t. Logging in NF’s has been going on forever. This is not a new thing. For those who are against it - exactly how much do you want to pay for your next wood dresser/paperback book/toilet paper? Hippie Granola Types You can't just let the woods just go. You have to trim them back. Old brush fires would clear the first floor and dead trees at times. But now we have to clear brush back and cull trees so more can grow. Leftist hippie granola types want the forests to be left completely alone, but California is proof that neglect is not sound forest. CUT MOAR TREES!!!

Study finds warming will drive the loss of at least 55 trillion kg of carbon from the soil by 2050, or about 17% more than the projected emissions due to human-related activities during that period. That's roughly the equivalent of adding another industrialized country the size of the United States.
