a mass shooting is how we got the term "going postal". there's always a silver lining.

Current government policy is to turn people away if you have a funny-sounding name.

I don’t make the rules, sorry.

Sounds like one of the clauses in the xenophobic legislation trump is trying to pass. Xenophobia is not the way to go my friend, unless you're down with that I guess.

post script - Perhaps you're taking the piss. Much respect Fonzie. You'll always have a place to crash in Minneapolis if you should ever need one.

Wow, some of the victims of the California shooting were survivors of the Las Vegas one.

And I thought I had back luck because the donut I want is always the one that's sold out whenever I go to Tim Horton's. But there are people who've happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time for two different random mass shootings.

The only other places I can think of where a non-gang-involved civilian could reasonably expect to be caught in gunfire more than once in a single lifetime are war-torn countries and failed states being roamed by militias.

Can you imagine going to a therapist to work through the PTSD of surviving a mass shooting, finding some small comfort in the fact that being caught in such a scenario is so unlikely that your fears about it happening again are clearly not based on reality and are only a symptom of the condition you're working through, only for it to happen again, anyway? Good luck convincing me of leaving my house after that.

At least the third time it happens, you'd probably be prepared and be like, "hey guys, follow my lead, I've done this shit before."

I read a book last summer called Going Postal, about workplace shootings. Very interesting.

The competition has really stepped up in the crisis actor game and now you'd better be coming to the audition with a reel.

I take comfort in knowing that the shadowy cabal that controls the media and orchestrates fake crises is too ineffectual to pose an actual threat. All these fake false flag shootings and still no gun reform isn't a great track record.

Why worry about George Soros if he's apparently Wile E. Coyote?

On December 17, 2010, the BBC featured Yamaguchi in its comedy program QI, referring to him as "The Unluckiest Man in the World".[19] Both Stephen Fry, the host of QI, and celebrity guests drew laughter from the audience in a segment that included examples of black humor such as asking if the bomb had "landed on him and bounced off".[20]

yeah I just read that what in the fuck


also why did stephen fry used to seem cool to me but now he's a stunted neoliberal entitled man-baby? Is it just cause he was in V for Vendetta that I thought he was ok?

I dunno, I think Stephen Fry mostly has reasonable positions (I think— I haven't, like, thoroughly investigated them), but he seems to be much like his friend Dawkins in that, while being an overall reasonable guy, he has a bad habit of talking about shit that he knows fuck all about under the assumption that his intelligence extends to those areas, and of saying things without thinking them through first, and then being too proud to back down.

Not bad enough that I'd throw him under the bus for morality points, but bad enough that I have to be like "Omg shut the fuck up Stephen, go to bed."

Also, I think the V for Vendetta movie is an example of the kind of work that advances sentiments I largely agree with, but that I still find obnoxious and insufferable because of how artlessly and hamfistedly it does it.

Literally having an awesome, smart, loquacious, badass ninja liberal going around beating up stand-ins for Bush administration officials and pedo Catholic priests. It's like those "and then everybody clapped" stories.

I know the idea of a Garlic festival is some hipster bullshit gone mad, but this dude is protesting it a bit hard.
