The remaining 59 could not be confirmed or disconfirmed by NPR.

Let me get this straight NPR hired out another group to call the schools and ask them if they had shootings and then if the person answering that day said no or couldn't confirm or deny it, they just said okay thanks and then counted it as not a shooting?

Lol wut

Good thing school faculty never lies about negative things, I guess!

Actually SC is one of only two states without hate crime laws, which is probably why the feds had to step up.

So they likely did think they could get away with this shit.

The two teens used the pretense of doing cocaine to lure Ghey to the park, where they reportedly used the codeword “gay” to launch the frenzied and deadly attack on the unsuspecting trans teen.

Where tf they getting coke at like 15?

Probably part 2, because it’s got the best evolution of the originals gameplay, without going too crazy deep into mechanics like the later games do.

…ever heard of a little thing called Fortnite? I hear it makes a tiny bit of cash money for them.

Alternatively you can apply the Little Brother technique and just let them win more than they lose in whatever “competitive” game y’all are playing.

Just try to do it in a non-obvious way.

I really don't get the sentiment of that comment.

That dude is really emotionally invested in their Spotify decision, lol

I did not know that, that’s awesome they have that and shitty if it’s part of what he’s after.

No, it’s a spike in the seasonal pattern, vets and doctors say it happens every few years or so, and is nothing to be concerned about.

Veterinarians say fears about 'mystery' dog illness may be overblown. Here's why they aren’t worried

And National Geographic has a much better source on it:

https://www.nationalgeographic.com/animals/article/dogs-illness-respiratory-outbreak-us

What an absolute shitshow of an article from Wired. I know media often leads with fear mongering and hyperbole just for clicks, but this is bordering on dangerous with how they present it as some super mystery that will infect your furry friend.

They include this part:

David Needle, senior veterinary pathologist at the University of New Hampshire, has a lead on what the culprit might be; he thinks it may have been stalking canines for some time. In 2022, Needle’s team began looking at nasal and oral swabs taken from sick dogs in New England, in cases where no known cause of disease was found and the dogs weren’t responsive to treatment. They found a small DNA sequence of a potential disease-causing microbe in 21 of the initial 30 animal samples screened.

And then never elaborate on what the suspected culprit is, just leaving everyone hanging with their own worst case scenarios for what it could be.

The very next part of the information they are sharing, that they for some reason left out was that the doctor found is that it’s very likely being caused by the mycoplasma bacteria.

Which is the same one causing pneumonia in humans right now.

My understanding is these sorts of seasonal infections aren’t uncommon, and it’s likely being exacerbated by everyone returning to social norms, so all the little bugs are getting their buffet back on for the first time in years on a vulnerable population.

Who knows, though. I am not a doctor.

Is that what it’s saying in the bill though?

I could be wrong but it literally looks like he just wants to make it illegal to FUND the act of calling people their preferred pronouns, as in, not allow internal PSA’s to be made telling people they CAN do it.

It doesn’t appear to have any teeth or weight to prevent people from still respecting it if they want to.

It’s attempting to block a problem that doesn’t exist.

So he just wants to stop the federal government from enforcing pronouns or aliases in government settings…?

When does the government actually FORCE or ENFORCE pronoun usage though, using government money?

Am I taking crazy pills or is he just making shit up?

*Just wanted to say I appreciate all the people replying, the implications of his bill may be more severe than I initially read into it.

Before dinner I thought it was food, boy do I feel silly.

Also, this usually only happens when people are in a hurry and pull from the top instead of the bottom where it’s curled around.

Never mind, my fat ass thought it was a weird angle on a can of Pringles or something food related.

People be lonely, yo.

Yeah same experience on the bigger iPad. I often have three windows open at a time and thanks to the super powers of ADHD I’m just bouncing back and forth between them, been super useful.

I just want to play the resident evil I missed out on growing up. C’mon Capcom, remake Code Veronica already!

Perhaps part of the reason the idea that “a dog’s mouth is cleaner than a human’s mouth” came to be so widely believed is that we don’t typically swap diseases with our dogs when we swap saliva. You are not going to get the flu from a dog kiss, but you might get it from kissing a human loved one.

Most of the bacteria in your dog’s mouth are not zoonotic, which means you probably won’t get a disease from a big old doggy kiss. There are exceptions to this. Dogs that are fed a raw diet are at an increased risk of contracting salmonella, which can be spread to humans, and you really don’t want to share kisses with a dog that regularly raids the litter box.

In other words, kissing your dog is less risky than kissing another human

Good luck out there!

Do you think those things permanently become a part of their mouth or something?

How do you feel about kissing people? Think of the things they’ve done in the past… This doesn’t really hold water.
