I was surprised to find out how much the U.S. actually does spend on education, given how shitty it is. Idk where the money is going, but it's definitely funded

Also assuming the van doesn't suddenly, greatly, accelerate

An old friend, back when I was 17/18 or so, told me about the last time she had a kitten.

The kitten somehow got into the WASHER and her busy and absent-minded mother didn't realize it until the kitten had already drowned. Her mother drove herself (and the kitten) to the police department because she felt so bad.

After that I have always checked for cats. Even now, at almost 40 (I even check the oven)! My husband thinks it's over-kill, but I'm never gonna get that horror story out of my head

She's just "liberating" the items from the woke Target agenda

( /s in case you didn't catch it)

I don't have any updated data, but reading this from the article you posted:

"Indeed, vaccinated people now make up the majority of the population – 79% of adults have completed at least the primary series – and the latest CDC data show that vaccinated people also now represent the majority of COVID-19 deaths. There are many more vaccinated people than there are unvaccinated people, and vaccinated and boosted people are, on average, older and more likely to have underlying health conditions that put them at risk for severe COVID-19 outcomes"

Seems to make sense. My guess is that most of the unvaxxed people that were gonna die from Covid have already died. Some people have become immuno-compromised after 2020, and so they are still dying, but most of them might already have an immunity built up through having caught it and survived. So it's likely those older, already vaxxed (but immuno-compromised) folks that are now being taken out by the newer mutations of the virus

(Again, i'm guessing, but it seems to make sense)

I'm about to be 40 and I'm a married, hetro-cis woman; I still do this. Though lately I've been leaning more heavily toward city builders

Update: 163 works! Thanks :)

It seems to be for all of them, but I'm wondering now since I spend most of my time on the all feed. The way I've been responding to comments is by finding the post and then scrolling down to find my comment. I'll try 163 and let you know

I'm on 160 and it's still not working for me.

Sure, but before things can become commonplace we need voices advocating for the direction of that change. That's my goal. To be a voice.

Also, irrelevant to you, but: I might need a new Lemmy account. Connect isn't working for me and I can't find which e-mail I used to sign up for Lemmy. Super annoying, because I keep needing to search for the posts that I commented on, and then find the comments themselves in order to reply. My inbox just gives me errors about not finding the posts... but they're obviously still here
