Simply possessing a gun is a risk factor for suicide.

Guns are the ultimate example that means matter, because suicide attempts with firearms are overwhelmingly fatal compared to other methods.
there's all this concern about male suicide rates,supposedly, always used as an excuse for attacking feminism.

men don't kill themselves with feminism. they kill themselves with guns.

i believe people when they say linux has gotten better in the last few years. what i'm skeptical of is that linux Guys have improved. i will not use an OS where i'm at high risk of someone calling me stupid for not liking some aspect of the experience. i must be allowed to hate the computer

How can you look at this and not conclude that guns are the problem?

This was a dinner table conversation between my 2 kids in middle school--comparing notes on which room would be best to be in when the shooting started, how they would escape various rooms, etc. I've told them about my school, pre-Columbine/lockdown drills, and it's unfathomable to them.
I teach Sociology of Childhood, and when we talk about school shootings, my students tell me about how they also do these checks in their classes--noting locks on doors, thinking about how to escape and where to hide. I hate that they have to mind those risks while trying to learn.
Each semester I go in my classroom and I try to figure out what we would use to block the doors, if it would be safe to crawl out the windows, where we could hide if there was a mass shooter in campus. It’s such an indictment of this country how we have normalized these preventable tragedies.

"In 2016, firearm suicides in the United States of America represented 35.3% of global firearm suicides "

US had more than 1/3 of the global firearm suicides! the US is about 4% of global population!

mass shooting are dramatic and horrific evidence of our desperate need for gun control. they're really only the tip of the iceberg though.

gun suicides and accidental gun deaths kill more people than mass shootings. and they're both also out of control in the US.

I understand that a lot of folks have been misled by fear-mongering and powerful regressive voices but it’s still astonishing to me that so many have fallen for the idea that oppressively policing other people’s gender identity and expression could in any way be part of an enlightened future.

If you're wondering what happened to Nate Silver, he was into the COVID lab leak theory and got negative feedback online, including from epidemiologists and virologists and (GASP!) posters, which added to his belief that The Woke are victimizing Nate Silver. It spiraled from there.

I'm not kidding.

It's kind of amazing how you can very specifically date the precise moment Nate Silver's brain turned to pudding: March 11, 2020, when the NBA suspended the season for COVID and suddenly Nate had no outlet for his crippling gambling addiction.

But you can't very well let the church become party political. C of E churches are often incredibly racially diverse and increasingly get involved in local refugee work so are you making your existing congregants feel pushed out?
