Mass school shooting in Texas.  Reports 14 children, 1 teacher, dead.

I vomited a bit into my mouth as I realized that we actually need such a megathread.

But, you know, "pro-life" types do not gag at all at these mass murders.  Just the price to pay for "mah Sicen' Amendment Rahts, muthafucka!"
The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.   -G'Kar

Thoughts and prayers. -_-
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

Another sad day in the USA.

Remember when the first Jurassic Park came out?  Remember those freaking velociraptors?  Remember how every paleonthology student out there said "that was fun but not real"?  Well, a few years later, they found a new species of dinosaur/raptor about that size, with about that look. That was cool.

And the first one of the new trilogy, with these flying reptiles that can catch a human and fly away with them?  Same "that was fun but not real"?  And they did it again.  :showoff:

Never doubt sci-fi again.  :lol:

Something I find curious.
Default emoji are yellow.
Yet non white people, sans east Asians, will practically always pick a brown /black version.
White people picking a white version I virtually never see.

God the obvious blatant bad faith of Cruz in this clip on the shooting is nauseating:
