Kids, School, and Suicide
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

People are asking about the stats I presented about school days being associated with child suicide. There are many ways to look at it.

Simply, using July as a reference month, you can easily see "school peaks."

It's very striking.

👉 1 in 2 people have fled their homes.

👉 1 in 2 health-care centres no longer function.

👉 1 in 2 people don’t have enough to eat.

Nearly 11 years on, #Syria is exhausted.

Outside Lviv station, which is thronging with exhausted refugees fleeing war in eastern Ukraine, an accomplished pianist is playing “What a Wonderful World.” It’s hauntingly beautiful.

Dear 2022,
Thank you for submitting your manuscript. I regret to advise that I did not feel as enthusiastic about it as I wanted to.
First of all, there are simply too many plot lines for the average reader to follow.

THIS WILL LIKELY MAKE YOU UNCOMFORTABLE, BUT IT REALLY NEEDS TO BE SAID.

Last week, the remains of 215 children were found at a former residential school. They were all victims of racism.

A few days ago, 4 people were murdered in yet another act of racism.

Keep reading. (1/10)

Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett have made a new album together, recorded through Tony's battle with Alzheimer's. This passage broke my heart.

"You don't need to pretend to be okay when you are not okay. Can we stop reserving the word 'strong' for people who 'power through' and 'get on with it' when what they really need is support and compassion? It takes true strength to be vulnerable and honest about your emotions."
