The folks complaining most about $10K student loan forgiveness seem to forget why they could afford to pay theirs back then.
I think it is important to be detailed because to say this was a "shooting" is sanitary. Children that young were killed by a weapon that shatters. Young kids would not have identification; they may not be recognizable. There are so many of them. Authorities are figuring 1/
Every mass shooting I can remember (I was 9 during Columbine) feels like a fever dream because everyone is mad and sad and angry and politicians talk their talk and then there’s nothing you wake up and it’s all the same
I don’t like paying higher gas prices either but it’s incredible that people will buy GOP outrage on gas that’s $5 instead of $3.50—but then excuse GOP for keeping the min wage at $7.25 instead of $15, insulin at $1200 instead of $35, & paid leave at 0 weeks instead of 12 weeks.
I was 14 y/o w/ a tibial stress fracture, left alone w/ no cervical spine exam after this fall. I competed in the Olympic floor final minutes later. @Simone_Biles 🤍 decision demonstrates that we have a say in our own health—“a say” I NEVER felt I had as an Olympian.
It is pretty wild how people who are complaining that they can’t breathe with a piece of cloth on their face expect Simone Biles to maybe break her neck for America
