Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

The sooner you abobdon that hope the less dissappointed you will be - parent who dropped their third grader off for the first time this morning

Best you can hope for is you get the dumbest cop in the county and hope it's not your daughter they try to pursue a relationship with

I don’t know why but I feel like I care more and more about each one that happens

I used to not really gaf but reality is setting in that this is a real thing, that the kids are not alright

Yea people love to talk shit about the youngest generation but they're unironically more heroic than your average Vietnam vet just for being willing to go to school everyday and be willing sacrifices to America's gun culture.

If my daughter told me she wasn't fucking going to school because nobody was doing anything to prevent her from being target practice I'd have a hard time coming up with a rebuttal.
