I know its just bread and circuses, but its awesome the U.S. got gold in Hockey this year. The bread is just too fucking good right now man i cant help it.

Canada does indeed have stronger gun control policies, and these do have noticeable effects. The issue on display is not access to firearms, but the mental health problems that push people to commit acts of violence. Canada still faces a very real mental health crisis that gun legislation doesnt fix

It is. I feel it was being hypocritical with my original tweet, but its just upsetting to see the murder of innocent children be turned into just another battleground in the culture war. Innocent Trans people will be demonized for the actions of the perpetrator, and victims will receive no justice.

What happened is still a horrific tragedy, and I hope the Canadian people are aware that millions of Americans sympathize with what they're enduring. I hope this shooting leads to improved mental healthcare in rural Canadian communities to help prevent future tragedies.

Until more evidence comes forth and is confirmed by other sources i have my doubts. Whether or not the shooter was Transgender, they still ruined the lives of countless innocent people. My point was that Chaya and her peers dont care about the victims and recovery, only the perpetrators identity.

To my 40 followers, know that my dumbass ain't cooking nuting.

Some men drown while others die of thirst.

I would attempt to stretch, but I am acutely aware that any movements would cause my frail, drained husk of a body to crumple into fine dust and blow away at the slightest exhale.

Whenever I see this happen, I channel my inner shot-putter to hurl bowling balls straight at the parents to incapacitate them before compacting the child into a ball and sticking my fingers in its nostrils and mouth to bowl a strike with them.

Be proud of yourself mate! You, Howl, and Sharks did an incredible job and I've had alot of fun playing. I also really appreciated the message about self-worth, it reminded me alot of my own relationship with my bf. I can't wait to see what you do next!

On January 7th, 1945, British General Bernard Montgomery gives a press conference claiming full credit for the Allied victories in the Battle of the Bulge, sparking U.S. outcry nearly leading to his removal. Winston Churchill addressed Parliament on the 18th recognizing the battle as a U.S. victory.

A month later at the Yalta Conference, the Allies and USSR agreed to the formation of an interim Polish government. However, the reformed Provisional Government of National Unity would become the de facto recognized government by 1945, paving the way for Soviet domination of Poland until 1989.

With native Polish resistance having been eradicated by the Nazis by 1945, and in anticipation of the final offensive to take Berlin, the Soviet Union established a communist provisional government within the Polish territories it occupied to counter the staunchly anti-communist exiled government.

On January 5th, 1945, the Soviet Union recognized the pro-Soviet Polish Committee of National Liberation or "Lublin Committee" as the legitimate Provisional Government of the Republic of Poland, replacing the exiled government based in London. www.jstor.org/stable/4206573

The planes were painted glossy black to evade searchlights during the nighttime deliveries.

Student Service Members/Veterans on Campus: Challenges for Reintegration Many returning OIF/OEF/OND Veterans are seeking higher education in an effort to develop a meaningful career and financial stability. Evidence suggests that student service members/Veterans (SSM/Vs) are experiencing less academic success than other ...

Studies by the National Institutes of Health have found evidence that student service members and Veterans experience less academic success than civilian students. I am really grateful you were smart enough to not pursue the path that likely would have left you depressed, stressed, and suicidal.

For a while I mused over the idea of applying for ROTC and going into either the Air Force like previous family members had. However, as I began to develop a more philosophical understanding of history and sociology, I ultimately decided against it and I and my parents are forever glad I did.
