@Danafox
Everything you described is honestly what any logical person might do. I've been talking about this case a lot with my parents, and we all agreed that it would be strange if my brother came home without his girlfriend--whether he intentionally harmed her or it was an accident, we would all be looking at him suspiciously and asking him what happened. I also agree that most people wouldn't leave their SO stranded in the middle of nowhere. Even if you were fighting the whole roadtrip, at least tolerate each others' presence for a few more days until you can return home and blow off some steam alone.
I will mention though that I do have my doubts about the double homicide in Utah. I think it might be sheer coincidence that they were in the area when that couple was murdered. Right now, police don't believe they're connected. I feel that the circumstances surrounding that case are vastly different; it seems more like a hate crime. They also were able to find both of their bodies, and both were naked from the waist down, which can imply SA or even a form of humiliation against the women once they're found. I know that the guy's attorney said police should focus more on that homicide, but that was likely to get heat off of his client. (If you ask me though, I think it makes the fiancé look even MORE suspicious, like he's implying that Gabby was indeed murdered by someone--rather than her being missing/possibly alive/whatever happened was an accident/etc. ) And I don't think Brian is the creepy guy they mentioned, especially if one of the victims tagged him in an instagram post... Who really knows at this point? There's been so many twists and turns with this case, it's hard to keep up.
Anyway, I feel you about true crime. I studied forensics in high school and watched a lot of shows like Forensic Files/America's Most Wanted/Dateline/etc growing up. Love the mystery and science of it all!

Re: Gabby Petito case
All the actions of the fiance are like, pretty clearly the actions of a guilty person! Like, if my SO disappeared while we were at a national park together, one of the first things I would do would be frantically dialing his parents in the hopes they're able to get in touch with him when I can't. The sheer amount of unconcern to just drive her car home and then refuse to say anything about it is straight up chilling. Also, what really, really makes me go "dang this guy is definitely a sociopath who murdered his girlfriend" is his super unconcerned demeanor when they got pulled over. I really, really can't imagine a person with any empathy being so calm and affable when their partner is so clearly distraught.

Re: How Was Your Day Thread V5
An innocent person may not have fled/started hiding like he did (in rare cases it does happen when the innocent one is accused to take part in the crime, the accused one flees due to fear of being put in jail), but there are other things he could have done: one, get a lawyer. Innocent or not, he has the right to be silent and protect himself (he also has legal right to have the lawyer present when he talks to the police as well), and 2) If he is one of those that prefer to be alone during this kind of crisis, all he had to do was to tell the police that he would be at his place so they know where to find him and stay there. Disappearing and hiding from everyone doesn't strike me as an act done by an innocent person, it raises both questions and concerns, including suspicion about his involvement in this.
While everyone reacts differently due to stress and when they lose loved ones.... being concerned about his partner's car and where it stands while his partner is missing...
Doesn't help his case that he was seen fighting with her a few days(or a week?) before her disappearance either
So she is either hiding (from him), or she was killed.

Tragic update: Investigators are saying the body found in the Grand Teton NP is likely that of Gabby Petito. It matches her description and is wearing clothes Gabby is known to own. No manner of death determined yet (could require an autopsy before they know.) My heart aches for this poor family! RIP Gabby
(I do think that this is possibly a homicide. He would not be hiding/on the run if he wasn't guilty of something! I just hope they're able to find him alive. And after charging him, his family is next!)

Re: How Was Your Day Thread V5
Unrelated to the thing you're talking about.
Spoiler
Got another job interview at 11:30am. Crippling anxiety woke me up at 6am.
To make things worse I have an hour car trip to get to said interview. I have car sickness as it is, barely controlled by pills. It's going to be a nightmare to get there, as I feel like throwing up even now.
And just to add some annoyance to the mix, Sophie Ellis-Bextor's Groovejet song is stuck in my head, particularly the "why does it feel so good?" part repeating over and over again.

Re: How Was Your Day Thread V5
why does everyone want to talk to people when the person they're talking to has only just woken up
the time of day when no one wants to be talked to, much less by multiple people at once
and they all go silent in a few hours when i'm actually awake enough to not want to bite someone, too
is this some sort of curse based on murphy's law? if anyone wants to talk to me, it WILL be only at times i don't want to talk to anyone, and it WILL be everyone i know?

Just saw on the news....it is confirmed that the body they found is indeed Gabby Petito. Her family and friends are in my prayers.

Earthquake in Melborne, Australia... is everyone OK?
I am in the process of moving house, so I will not be around much for the foreseeable future.

Re: How Was Your Day Thread V5
Youtube: Sorry we don't know if you are 18 so you cannot watch certain vids and ya won't be able to do some other stuff... unless you verify your information!
Me:...okay,how do I verify...
Youtube:All you have to do is to either scan your ID and send it to us,or give us your credit card number...
Me:...go f yourself My account was verified so screw you, you are not getting this information from me.
I need to send a scanned copy of my ID to verify my age to watch a history documentary, but I don't need to verify my age before I am blasted with oversexualized mobile games ads (whenever I forget to re-activate my Ublocker). Those ads make 18+ videos look like innocent romance novels!
Found some movies to watch.I wonder what caused YT to send me the "we are not sure you are 18" message. Was it me watching certain animated series? Because if ya ask YT, the animation is ONLY for kids
