You certainly implied that 'it never happened'. No, you wouldn't have googled it, because you already said you wouldn't bother. Nor do I think you look up details of anything really. Good? Good on you for never experiencing. As for not being ashamed of not knowing, well... that's on you...

Hospital ICU bed availability (as of yesterday): Adult ICU beds 13 in MN available (5 less than Friday); 0 in NE MN Pediatric ICU beds 7 in MN available (unchanged); 2 in NE MN Part of the problem here is that covid ICU patients usually require longer stays compared to other diagnoses. About 90%...

Well to be fair, I'm sure TB was actually being sarcastic. You were being a lazy idiot.

I'd say you're rather "ignorant to what I don't want to know/hear about". It's been on the news, it's a 'thing'. I mean, FFS there are people in my area of Canada who have the fucking Confed flag stickers on vehicles or hates or patches, cause they somehow think it's 'cool'. Just because you...

You're asking too much of Dix though. What is said is fact and if you can prove otherwise, well... who cares, Dix doesn't have to back anything said up!

I think clay can be an issue too? The fact there was a manufacturing plant that was destroyed and likely all working at the time are now dead, and I've not heard about any kind of shelter built inside for tornadoes says a lot, too.

Never said you didn't; a lot of people like to make Iowa the butt of jokes because flat land and cornfields. Of all the times I went there, I didn't see many hot farm girls, sorry. Wish I had.

I've been there; used to go to Iowa for almost a month every year for something like 10 years. Honestly don't see why people don't like it, I thought Iowa was a nice little state. Not shocked by the weather there; winter's crazy. Was watching a chaser last night going after this tornado...

My brother and I were on our way home from school, or maybe home for lunch; anyway we got jumped by three other kids. I told him to run while they held me down and kicked me. My dad was pissed; got moreso when the father of one of the guys laughed when dad called about what happened. NFLD was...

Chaucer is scary to read. Scarier when you actually get the gist of what is being said.

Actually it can be they/them when the gender of the person is unknown and has been such for a while. As pointed out, language changes over time. This is just more of that change.

Going to school in the 80's was hell too. Got the shit kicked out of me just because I was from "the mainland", or whatever other bullshit excuse they wanted to give for it. Even wearing a full snowsuit, sweater and shirt I had bruises on my ribs, but then the little shits were wearing steel...

I'd say if the former, pointing out that 'back then' kids weren't killing themselves over the bullying. 'Back then' bullying wasn't as intense or almost in your face every day like it is now. You can't compare bullying 'back then' to now. I agree with point two.

According to the article, the kid was gender non-conforming. Pronouns would be they/them unless stated being okay with him. I'm sorry respect for that is lost on you.

On that I agree; there was no need for them to take their own life.

Didn't read the article did you? The kid always acted happy, family had no clue how they were feeling. So if the family doesn't know, they can't get counselling. But you being okay with the kid's suicide doesn't shock me anymore.

https://www.metroweekly.com/2021/12/12-year-old-tennessee-boy-commits-suicide-after-being-bullied-for-being-gay/ Now I'm sure some here will say "GOOD" that this kid killed themselves. But they were a KID. 12 goddamn years old. Suicide because other little fucking monsters decided because the...

Good idea! Jab that up your inflated ego (aka your ass) and maybe it'll smarten you up!

Haha, you think all this is communism? FFS you're an idiot.

Actually, it WAS about the kid having drawn a scene of people dead from being shot. The day of the shooting. Parents aren't the way to go? LOL. Damn well can't get cops involved if they only suspect stuff. That's been tried already and unless there's a 'real threat', they can't do anything...
