Kinship Puns

I live in europe, and recently there are a few big cases (in the Netherlands) which were solved by using kinship analysis. I don't know if this is allowed in the US? We don't know whether the found DNA is even human, but if it is, can LE put in public DNA data bases to try and find relatives of the perp?

Hi all, I've been lurking here for awhile. I've posted elsewhere about our situation but I'm wanting some feedback from people who are going through this or have been.

Backstory: my husband and our 3 kids have had our 2 niblings living with us for the past several months. CPS removed them from the home due to severe neglect, disgusting living conditions, parental alcohol abuse, etc. The kiddos are doing great with us, they're really thriving. My kids love having them here, they all play well together, etc. Their parents (my Sibling and their Spouse) are recently out of jail and in their rehab programs. No visits or contact at all since the removal.

So, obviously it's going to be a long while before the kids are able to go back home, if ever. We're in this for the long haul, we actually changed the design of our house that's being built to better suit 5 kids! My husband is over the moon having them here and wants to keep them forever. However, the more time that passes for me, the less thrilled I am about the prospect, if only because the majority of the stress falls to me to handle. That's just how it is for now and I'm coping.

Anyway, my question is, for those that did kinship care (or maybe even foster families that stayed in touch after the child moved on), how do you deal with that? Sibling and Spouse were some of our closest friends, our kids were growing up more like siblings than cousins even before this. I can't see myself ever going back to being friends with them after what they did, but I love my niblets as much as my own kids, so how do I balance seeing and visiting the kids after they (hopefully) go back home? What was it like for you guys?

Sorry if I'm not making sense, it's getting late and I'm tired! I'll answer questions as I'm able, thanks for any wisdom or advice!

I played the stories 2 demo on steam, but didn't get the kinship talisman. I got all the other crossover bonuses. Anybody else has the same issue?

I was wondering how accurate is this statement like could early human kinship be more diverse?

EDIT: trying to make a better question to explain what I am trying to understand

is there any theory that most anthropologist agree on what the early human kinship was? Like are we still uncertain if the early human kinship was Matrilineal, or could there have been a mix of Matrilineal, and Patrilineal?

Does it have to be a binary where its either Matrilineal, or Patrilineal for early humans?

Knight, C. 2008. Early Human Kinship Was Matrilineal. In N. J. Allen, H. Callan, R. Dunbar and W. James (eds.), Early Human Kinship. Oxford: Blackwell, pp. 61-82.

So I'm keeping this kinda vague, but my wife and I are starting the process of doing a kinship foster from out of state, we are the *only* family members that are able to foster for legal or abuse reasons. Our first home study is early next week. We didn't even know much about this child until November, the last time my wife or I have seen her was about 12-13 years ago when she was only a few months old, and we've been doing bi-weekly phone calls for the past few weeks and we've done one zoom meeting. They out of state CPS people haven't had us do any paperwork yet, and our home study is like I said earlier, early next week and I'm just not sure what to expect. We have to move around some things in our house as we are a BIG family (8 of us including my Wife and me) but we deff have the room for another one. I guess I'm just trying to figure out what to expect and how long of a process this is going to be from start to finish (not sure how many out of state fosters there are in this sub). Thanks for any answers

So my wife and I took in our niece this year, she is 12. It was kind an ugly legal battle to get custody of her, mostly because her paternal grandma who did have custody was obviously having some serious mental health issues, and was saying some pretty outlandish things to/about me (all easily proven false in court, like I was making her scrub our floor with a toothbrush), that had to be investigated and delayed court hearings and stuff.

Well come to find out, her Grandma is now in the hospital, They don't know what is wrong (a quick video call between niece and her Grandma it reminded me of a stroke patient, slurred speech, disoriented), or if she'll recover, or if it will be the end of her... So we're trying to make plans on what to do if she does pass.

Niece would be devastated if she couldn't go to the funeral. Grandma was her parental unit from the time she was 1 to about 9 (when she stayed with us for a good part of a year) then, from 10 to almost 12. Problem lies in that grandma lives in another state 10 hours away by car. It is also a terrible time to travel there as it would mean going through some passes that love to have just the worst blizzard (last time I went through there in April a couple of years ago I hit a white out snow storm that lasted nearly 5 hours). so that probably means flying.

I've flown with my own kids before. but they share BOTH my last names with me, and look exactly like me. My niece Looks just like my wife, being my wife's sister's daughter, but nothing like me at all (obviously), and has a very different last name.

What considerations should I have for flying with a child who is obviously not "mine" (though she calls me dad). I have all the legal court papers i could carry with me, is a school ID sufficient for her?

With my bio kids that share my name, it was a non issue. No questions asked, just showed up, got on the plane and flew. I would hope it would be similar.

Edit: Thanks for all the info! It's both good and scary to hear how easy it is to fly with kids. Fingers crossed grandma makes a full recovery, that would be the best option.

Hey all, I plan on diving in pretty soon as a new player (technically returning but it’s been about a decade, don’t have original account and don’t remember anything!).

I feel like I’m much more likely to stick around and experience all that I’ve missed if I have a group to play with but not sure if any kinships take in brand new players these days? Would I have a better shot on Arkenstone or Treebeard?

I’ll be playing a High Elf Warden and Human Burglar if it matters :)

Was this patterned after similar uses in religious/political contexts? And what about those uses? (fatherland, motherland, brotherhood, etc.)

Been playing off and on the last 10 years. Just looking for a good kin with no/low drama. If there's a recruitment page Ive missed, let me know where I should be posting

No code needed. Might stack with email sign-up codes

Surely, I'm not the only one that looks forward to re-watching this show and re-binging on old seasons every Autumn. There is just something about this series that speaks to me. Maybe it's the humor or the music or the actors. Probably an accumulation of them all. It's just...cozy. Like hot chocolate by the fire on a chilly day. I truly look forward to every Fall, when I re-binge each season, starting with my favorites, Coven and Hotel, then ending with Roanoke, which reminds me every single time that I liked that season more than I recalled. It almost feels like I'm having a reunion with old friends that I haven't seen or talked to in a year. It's just such a fun show and I dread the day when the show runners pull the plug.

Having said that, Death Valley will be the only season excluded from my re-watch list in the future. I don't know her.

posted this issue a day or two ago on r/Skyrimmodsxbox and I have yet to get a response so I'll post here too.

basically, I've been aiming for the kinship ending in m'rissi's tales of trouble, and I've gotten it, but now when I talk to S'ahara so she will bring me to the special place to preform the ceremony, I can't move, draw weapons/Spells, activate her or m'rissi, or anything. I assumed this was part of the mod, but then after waiting an ungodly amount of time for the ceremony to actually begin I realized she was supposed to have said something and she just.. won't. she won't talk. she won't initiate the ceremony and I'm left stuck there until I reload a save.

I'll post my LO but at this point I've tried everything I can think of, and since I'm on Xbox there is nothing I can do in the way of console commands to progress the quest.

What did you guys think of the whole “Atreides and Harkonnen are related” reveal in the movie? It’s been a while since I read the book, but from what I remember it’s Paul who reveals that to us during his vision in the tent.

In the movie it was super lowkey, when the Baron called Duke Leto his cousin during their confrontation. I thought it was great how downplayed that was, but on the other hand my friends who never read the book didn’t even notice it - which could be bad for new audiences, since it’s a pretty big reveal.

I get that if it was a bigger thing it might have been seen as a “Star Wars” moment, even if Star Wars originally ripped that idea from Dune.

What do you guys think?

EDIT - Got confused and forgot the specifics of the Harkonnen-Atreides parentage, guess my mind played tricks on me since I was expecting the reveal at the tent scene. Been a while since I read the book lol.

Brazilians don’t, not really. Brazil is too insular in South America to really have much contact with the rest of you, I’m from the South, one of the areas that I assume have the most contact with other South Americans and even then it’s quit distant. And I mean South America, whatever is between Colombia and the US might not even exist.

Even when we refer to Latin America is usually to highlight something about the region. There’s just this overall alienation from the region. Politically I think Brazil wants a closer South America, buts it’s transparently an attempt at a consolidation of power, not really a cultural thing.

My impression is that the Hispanics are way closer to one another than we are with any of them.

Also, what do you think of Hispanic Americans (as in, from the US)? If someone from the US tells me they’re Brazilian because their parents are, well, I wouldn’t be inclined to agree.

I was debating this with a fellow redditor some time ago. It didn't go anywhere (mostly because I forgot about it), but now that I remember the debate, I'm curious.

What do you theorize a kinship stone does to a monster? Are they a form of mind control? Do they dull the monster's killer instinct? Do they make monsters dumber/smarter, or do they stay as dumb/smart as they would've been before?

We know that kinship stones bind a Monstie and Rider's souls together, and they have the ability to keep the Black Blight and Rage-Rays at bay, but besides that, we don't know too much.

Give me your theories!

Hello LOTRO Redditors!

Númenórean Royal Guard is a Treebeard Kinship with an emphasis on competitive raiding. We were founded the day the Treebeard server launched and are looking for long term members who are interested in growing together on this server.

Our Kin is focused on quality over quantity, we are looking for active and skilled players but more importantly mature players who have a positive attitude. While we do have a strong focus on raiding, our Kinship has many active players of all playstyles. If you are interested in joining our Kinship please feel free to visit our Discord (https://discord.gg/3wV9YAXegN) or reach out to an officer in game to apply.

In a nutshell, what you get with our kinship is the opportunity to play with skilled players and participate in the hardest content the server has to offer while maintaining a positive social environment and culture that you'd find with a more casual kin.

Some things you can look forward to:

• We host open sign-ups for events throughout the week, including raids on Mondays (4PM), Thursdays (8PM), and Saturdays (3PM) all in server time (EST) to accommodate our players across the globe.

• We have multiple slow leveling Deadly 6 groups that run once per week.

• We host social events both in and outside of game, including a Silmarillion book club through Discord which is currently active.

• We have a Belfalas island home, Tol Falthui in the Gaerwing neighborhood and a Mead Hall in the Elkinhall neighborhood of Eastfold Hills within Rohan. We also have 3 active/populated neighborhoods in Breeland.

Whether you are looking for a group of friends to play landscape content with, or you think you have what it takes to clear the hardest content in the game as it becomes available in future expansions, we may be the right Kinship for you.

We pride ourselves on having members that are helpful, capable, mature, and enjoyable to play this game with.

We created some videos of Shadows of Angmar content and will be doing the same for Moria and beyond. You can check them out on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCx61x4hRQqG1fSeFN-Lxylg

Looking forward to seeing you in game!

Hi all. I am new to LOTRO. I am playing on Arkenstone. I am looking for a Kinship to join. I have asked in world chat and have not found a beginner friendly kinship. From my understanding of reading through this subreddit, Arkenstone is fairly active. Should I transfer servers? Looking for a Kinship to answer newbie questions, and play instances, dungeons etc with.

Thank you!

Me and a friend just atarted lotro in the last week and are looking for an rp kinship to join that reasonably active.

"the father is not always to be sure of, but you surely are from your mother's womb"

On the mother side, her sisters and brothers are considered "mother" and "father", respectively. Any children of her sisters are your siblings but the children of her brothers are cousins. This happens because you are always certain that the children from your mother's sisters came from her and so the bloodline continues to be pure. In the case of your mother's brother the bloodline separates and there is no certainty that the children are from him.

When your mother gets pregnant the man or men are considered partners and only one will belong to your family. If there's more than one possible father, they must prove through a series of tests which one is worthy of being responsible for the children. The woman together with her mother is responsible to choose who will be your father. When married he will become "father by marriage". Marriage is monogamous, meaning independently if she gets pregnant from any other man, she will only be married to one man and he will have to take care of all the children she has. If he has siblings then any offspring of them will be considered your cousins. Marriage is considered a very sacred practice by the Pimén People. It's not socially acceptable for a man to wander without being married when reaching adulthood.

This separation into women and men's bloodline helps understand to whom you can marry. Since cousins are not to be considered part of your mother's bloodline then you can marry them and obviously anyone part of your mother's bloodline you can't.

GrMo - janó /dʒaˈno/

GrFr - nicó /niˈtʃo/

Mo - khepéc /xɛˈpetʃ/

Fr - tém /tẽ/

Au - pidaja /piˈda.dʒa/

Un - póré /ˈpo.ɾe/

Z - yir /jiɾ/

Br - taneno /ˈta.nɛ.nɔ/

Co - kéyéc /ˈke.jetʃ/

Fr(marriage) - ténja /tẽˈdʒa/

GrMo(fr) - janója /dʒa.noˈdʒa/

GrFr(fr) - nicója /ni.tʃoˈdʒa/

-ja, in the last three terms, derives from the postposition "like" - puˈkɛː.pu > puˈɟa.bu > puˈdʒab (as suffix -ˈpdʒab > -ˈdʒa). Mostly used on "father by marriage" lit. "father-like". GrMo(fr) and GrFr(fr) are most of the time just called kemósu /kɛˈmosu/ meaning "ancestor" with no occurrence of this word being used on grandparents on mother side, unless as an insult.

Any critiques are acceptable!

Key:
S = southern Vietnamese
N = northern Vietnamese
C = central Vietnamese

I will only indicate if a term is southern or northern if the term is different between the two regions.

Ba: dad (S)
Bố: dad (N)
Bọ: dad ( C ) 
Cha: dad (formal–tbh, I’ve never heard anyone call their own dad “cha”)
Má: mother (S)
Mẹ: mom (N)
Bà: grandmother
Mệ/Mụ: grandmother ( C ) 
Bà ngoại: maternal grandmother
Bà nội: paternal grandfather 
Ông: grandfather
Ông ngoại: maternal grandfather
Ông nội: paternal grandfather
Cụ/cố: great-grandparent
Sơ: great-great-grandparent
Chị: older sister 
À: older sister ( C )
Anh: older brother 
Eng: older brother ( C ) 
Em: younger sibling
Tam: younger sibling ( C )
Em gái: younger sister
Em trai: younger brother
Con: child
Cháu: nephew or niece; grandchild

Chú: uncle (father’s younger brother)
Cậu: uncle (mother’s younger brother)
Dượng: uncle-in-law; stepfather
Thím: aunt-in-law (chú’s wife)
Mợ: aunt-in-law (cậu’s wife)
*Cô: aunt (parents’ younger sister)
O: aunt ( C ) 
Dì: aunt (mother’s younger sister) (S)

*Unlike northern dialect, where cô refers to both parents’ younger sister, in southern dialect, cô apparently refers to “dad’s younger sister” and dì refers to “mom’s younger sister”. However, in my family (who were all from Saigon), my aunts (younger than my parents) are called cô, regardless of which side of the family they’re from.
