I'd argue that the difference is in marketing. Groups like everytown make their money running ads that capitalize on the tragedy and scare people into donating. And while I won't argue that shootings drive gun and ammunition sales through the roof, you can't tell me that running an ad campaign on the backs of murdered families isn't the most unashamedly slimy thing you can think of.

I mean the anti gun groups make tons of money off every shooting, but we can't criticize them

There is a time to rent and a time to own 9 comments

If you have a good landlord then renting can be better than owning in some situations, but a lot of them are pretty shitty. I'm paying less per month on my house than I ever payed under my scumbag landlord

I googled it and one of the pics that came up was a gang of them apparently trying to steal and/or molest a traffic cone, so your story checks out

Hot take: Treasure Planet is already as close to perfect as it could be, and disney would only fuck it up by remaking it

They have to though. I mean definitely not anything as complex as how we view time, but they have to be cognizant of times passage at some level, even if it's just instinctual

Wildly off topic, but Benjamin butterworth is probably the poshest name I've ever seen assigned to a real person
