I don't want to be that guy but 8 billion divided by 400 is 20 million. So to get a global average you would multiply the number here by 20 million.... 20 million people are not shot every day

Say you are in a room with 400 people. One of them is voenkom, 399 of them will die today.

But hey, at least Putin got new engine for his yacht from Italy! And his oligarchs are honorable buisness owners in EU and US.

The reason trans people are such a hotly debated topic is because republicans (and some leftists) view it as an assault on truth. They firmly believe that woman means adult human female and that males cannot be females. It's not a surprise why there is so much controversy around it.

There are a lot of manual labor, factory, and agriculture jobs that don't require high literacy. It's also not clear if they're limiting it to "English literacy".
