Unless the people do something about, Trump and the government are exactly America. If no one stops it and just complies, then it is endorsement by default.

This would make an absolutely amazing TTRPG adventure as well. Characters keep their memories and experience, no one else in the town remembers a thing. Always say the same lines, etc.

You are correct, that was a flaw in my process.

If a child makes it from K to G12, that is 13 years of school. Checking a quick chart showing the number of enrollment in schools from in the 80's and 90's, enrollment was lower. Once it hit 2005, it is between 49m-51m. If we cut the percentage in half to and round down to 0.3%, my statement of the 4x magnitude still stands.

Thank you for considering, checking and bring up that misrepresentation in my previous number.

We can start by acknowledging that you are already pushing the line to minimize the issue by trying to make it about physical harm only, not psychological harm of being in an related incident.

Most recent data is from 2022, and indicates there are 49.6 million school aged children in the US. The closest we have to official numbers around children involved in gun violence in school shootings since 1999 starting with Columbine comes from the Washington Post (because, for some reason, the US government doesn't track this). It says that 338,000 children have been involved over this time period.

That comes out to 0.7% of all school aged children have been involved in a school shooting in the US. Your 'bullshit, pulled from your ass, percentage above is 4 magnitudes off of reality. That is the same as you finding a ten dollar bill and loudly yelling "I JUST FOUND $100,000!".

Do better and suck less. This is just around your claims as well, that is setting aside the monstrous view point that any percentage of kids would be acceptable to be involved in school shootings.

I think it is the fact her eyes always look like she is squinting with a "we both know everything I am doing is wrong, but you can't do shit about it" kind of energy.

How is this uplifting news? Same old story, they hate until it effects them, then suddenly "things are different". Yes this is slightly better than him always being a bigot, but honestly, f*** this guys lack of sympathy to start with.

I am not a fan at all. I have always viewed Garfield as something to fill some blank space in a newspaper which has somehow grown out of control. I am genuinely curious, however, what huge fans of Garfield see in it / get from the IP.

I love that this sub exists now. I have started keeping track of notable sayings from our games for no reason, and now I have a reason.

Takes a lot more than that to keep me from my wine.

Use to, until my new phone no longer had one. I miss my corded headphones.
