Common pattern in these events.

Look at the Uvalde shooter:

“Ramos’ social media acquaintances said he openly abused and killed animals such as cats and would livestream the abuse on Yubo.[128] Other social media acquaintances said that he would also livestream himself on Yubo threatening to kidnap and rape girls who used the app, as well as threatening to commit a school shooting.[127] Ramos’ account was reported to Yubo, but no action was taken.[127][129]”

Or the Parkland shooter:

"Sheriff Scott Israel said that his office received 23 calls about Cruz during the previous decade. CNN used a public records request to obtain a sheriff’s office log, which showed that from 2008 to 2017, at least 45 calls were made in reference to Cruz, his brother, or the family home combined.[43][44] On February 5, 2016, the calls included an anonymous tip that Cruz had threatened to shoot up the school, and a tip on November 30, 2017, that he might be a “school shooter in the making” and that he collected knives and guns. On September 23, 2016, a peer counselor notified the school resource officer of his suicide attempt and intent to buy a gun, and the school indicated it would do a “threat assessment”.[45][46][47]

In September 2016, three people—a sheriff’s deputy who worked as a resource officer at Stoneman Douglas, and two of the school’s counselors—stated that Cruz should be committed for mental evaluation.[48][49]

On September 24, 2017, a person with the username “nikolas cruz” posted a comment to a YouTube video that read, “Im [sic] going to be a professional school shooter.” The person who uploaded the video to YouTube reported the comment to the FBI. According to agent Robert Lasky, the agency conducted database reviews but was unable to track down the individual who made the threatening comment.[50][51]

On January 5, 2018, less than two months before the shooting, the FBI received a tip on its Public Access Line from a person who was close to Cruz. On February 16, two days after the shooting, the agency released a statement that detailed this information. According to the statement, “The caller provided information about Cruz’s gun ownership, desire to kill people, erratic behavior, and disturbing social media posts, as well as the potential of him conducting a school shooting.” After conducting an investigation, the FBI said the tip line did not follow protocol when the information was not forwarded to the Miami Field Office, where investigative steps would have been taken.[52][53] The FBI opened a probe into the tip line’s operations.[54]"

Speaking of Cruz’s brother…

Yet another Israeli war crime…

Internal us news is not “World”.

Yeah, Vermin Supreme also ran a Presidential Campaign, but I would call his health issues “Politics”. See !news@lemmy.world

The Republicans have majorities in both the House and Senate, they don’t need the Democrats to do anything other than lose again in '26.

Before work from home, I was paying $21 a day for parking to go to work. $105 a week. $5,250 a year.

So that’s already money in my pocket, not counting gas and buying lunch out.

Was it weird moving from Iran to Ireland? I can’t imagine a more culturally disparate country…

Rob Liefeld is not the star of Deadpool. And he’s been on the outs with both Marvel and DC more times than I can count.

You know what would be new for him? Learning to draw more than guns with square barrels, upside down mouths, and pouches. Maybe start with feet and work up?

“Get in line!” ;) Seriously… they have generated so many lawsuits already and this was just announced today.

I’d imagine it would go to the Supreme Court who would rule:

"Amendment I

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof…"

Not Congress, he’s the Unitary Executive.

Definitely, they’re currently at the start of a death spiral… People move to renewable energy, so they raise rates, causing more people to move to renewable energy.

It’s not a tenable plan for much longer. Same plan as for cable television.

People cut the cord, which causes rates to go up for existing customers, which causes more people to cut the cord.

There was a study a while back asking Republican House members how they defined “middle class”.

$450,000.

Keep that in mind when you hear people throwing around “middle class tax cuts”.

Substack blogs are not approved sources.

But if you pause it just right and create a screenshot out of context…

I would imagine it’s something like this:

Say your electric company has a fixed budget of $1,000,000,000 and they have 500,000 customers.

Comes out to about $2,000 a year or $166 a month.

If 10% of their customer base goes solar, the companies fixed costs don’t change, so $1B/450K is now $2,222 per year or $185 a month, an increase of $19/mo.

Budget goes up? They need to increase subscribers or increase rates.

Subscribers go down? They need to cut their budget or increase rates.

Taken from Watchmen… pretty good homage.

“Under the Constitution, it is Congress, not the president, that authorizes spending decisions.”

Do we really think this congress would be any different?

Crater Lake is the deepest lake in NA, so even if they could make it to the top of the volcano, they’d fall down the inner side and end up at the bottom of the lake.

Gorilla warfare? 🤔

It’s almost like nobody has seen the actual video and if they have, they’re intentionally misrepresenting what she did.

Source of the bullshit appears to be this:
