That’s not accurate.
You didn’t blame the baby cancer on capitalism and/or Israel.

America bad, you see.
Therefore when America do good, is actually bad.
Did you wave goodbye to the handle as you flew off of it?
I’m just waiting for some dipshit to wander in here and talk about how we need to “examine the relationship” with food and start calling it something like “people fuel” or some other bullshit term.
Out of context and from another speaker I would interpret that statement as “I’ve had longstanding connections with this guy. Watch out, he’s a perv but to a degree that’s publicly tolerable. Watch out, he’s got a thing for young girls. All of that has to be tolerated because he’s socially connected.”
Given the speaker, though that between the lines reading may be giving too much credit.
I believe the connection is aviation.
Bro, you can’t say that to people. No means no.
Most municipalities have a non-emergency line to handle things like this. Road obstructions, noise complaints, and the like may well be handled by 911 operators, but calls to the non-emergency line are handled as the lowest priority.
You ever think of switching to decaf?
Congratulations on being the first user I block on Lemmy.
Fuck me for trying to answer your question, I guess.
There’s no uniform definition, but groups with an agenda will count any discharge of a firearm on property owned by a school as a school shooting regardless of circumstances.
One notorious case was a person who committed suicide in the parking lot of a closed down school. It happened in the middle of the night and classes hadn’t been held in that building for years. Advocacy groups still counted it.
NPR did a whole investigation into over reporting in 2018. Here’s a link:

I heard on NPR that a lot of the key ships and equipment the army used were almost decommissioned in 2019. The last time they were used was in Haiti in 2010.
Hopefully this convinces army brass to make the investment to maintain this capability.
Well, that’s a braindead take if I’ve ever heard one.
Unless you live a subsistence lifestyle and somehow also produce all of the complex goods you need, you care.
A Chinese invasion of Taiwan would more or less kick off world war three. To say that’s bad for everyday life is an understatement, and that’s assuming nobody launches nukes.
For a long time I’d get involved with confident, self-possessed women who started picking fights six months into dating because they enjoyed the catharsis. It took me three major relationships to find the line between “assertive” and “mean”.
It takes time and experience to learn lessons, and big problems rarely manifest early on in a relationship. Ignoring red flags is foolish, but misinterpretation happens.
Not making me feel better about my previous statement…
Ok?
Tell yourself whatever makes you feel better about getting played by political candidates.
Because the gun laws in place are about as far as things can go without repealing the second amendment. Further laws are either doomed to fail or make only marginal differences.
Those bills and proposals waste precious political capital that could otherwise be used passing laws that address the root causes of homicide.
And how did those bills go?
Congress loves to let issues fester to garner attention and drum up support. They’ve been fucking around with the debt ceiling for decades to do that, and that’s a problem that they create from whole cloth.
The political will of the populace to make real changes to address the root causes of homicide are squandered by focusing on the weapons used. Want to see those bills pass? Don’t buy into the dog and pony show that is gun control.
If you really, truly believe that banning guns is the silver bullet to solving homicides get the second amendment repealed. All the half measures that get thrown out time and time again are usually unconstitutional and doomed to fail, they’re just there to keep the public engaged.
Holy bald-faced foreign propaganda, Batman!
