I think this is the year where I force myself to stop paying attention to current events and completely disconnect
Do it, it’s amazing
Humans aren’t evolved for information overload like this. It rots our brain
Third world country things
So… Just another day in America?

What’s wrong with cybertruck on fire? I thought it was nice and symbolic.
I mean that’s obviously why he did it, but it was still a car bomb, not a malfunction.
wait that actually happened?? I thought it was just a symbolic painting…
dude died in it.
yeah, it was real.
He got shot in the head too
Wait. I thought it just got caught fire because it’s a Tesla. What else happened?
he shot himself in the head immediately prior to the explosion, https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trump_International_Hotel_Las_Vegas_Tesla_Cybertruck_explosion
Wow. Did he own it? Or rent it? Seems to be a lot to unpack here.
I’d reccomend having a read of the Wikipedia article. It has the answers you’re looking for. 😁
First mass shooting in the US.
Unfortunately Montenegro beat us to the punch this year with a mass shooting killing 10 earlier yesterday.
New Years RESOLUTIONS, RESOLUTIONS, not revolutions…
On the second thought, continue.
Don’t put your trust in revolutions. They always come around again. That’s why they’re called revolutions. - Pratchett
I tell ya, what we need is the luggage…
I’ll put all my trust in the luggage.

None of which happened in most people’s local areas. Stop reading national news on a regular basis. Focus on your small little life, your family, your neighborhood, your little area.
Of course when you cast a wide net nationally or globally, there will always be negative things happening, and then if you mainly focus on those events, you’ll act as if negative things are the only things.
It didn’t happen to me personally, so it’s fine! Stop paying attention!!
😬
Stop getting scared by terrorism, a few dozen people is nothing compared to even mundane things like traffic deaths.
By this logic, every war is safer today than in all of human history, so who fucking cares.

Wait what’s happened in New York?
10 shot outside of a club in queens, ages 16-20
This sounds more like gang shit
A group of four men fired at least 30 gunshots into a crowd that gathered near the Amazura nightclub
It doesnt matter the reason, its still a mass shooting.
I guess, the term mass shooting just makes me think of one dude going off the rails.
The fact that we need subgenres for this shit is disgusting either way.
I still think your distinction is important. They are both tragedies of course, but it’s important to know and understand the cause.
Mass shooting? Sounds like a normal Wednesday.
NYC has the lowest crime rate of any US major city by a lot.
That may be true based on stats which can always be manipulated. But it sure doesn’t feel safer. There was a time when you had no fear riding the subway. Now you are taking your life in your hands just standing on the platform
NYC used to be much more dangerous. Really goes to show how mislead we can be by emotions that you feel it’s only dangeeous now
You are not old enough to remember how peaceful and clean the city was during the 16 years of Guiliani and Bloomberg
downvotes verify that many are too young to remember
