Also I believe a history of violence, particularly towards women is a better indication of later mass violence than social isolation. Correct me if I’m wrong.

This is one of the reasons I don’t want to have kids. What if your kid is just an asshole, much less a psychopath? No one brings up that possibility.

Wow, this reflects my experience so much. I got bullied as well and have had problems with loneliness (although I’m a man) and I think I’m probably undiagnosed Asperger’s or maybe just have extreme anxiety and ADD. I’ve also had suicidal thoughts although I don’t think I’m very close to acting on them. I wish you the…

By that logic though, shouldn’t male children of lesbian couples be going on rampages too?

I think we can accept that she was in a horrible situation but that she still made the wrong choice.

I literally tried to explain to a kid I know (who thinks he’s really smart) that past violence, not social isolation was an indicator of becoming a mass shooter and he wouldn’t believe me and insisted it was the opposite.

Exactly what came to my mind.

Wow, that’s alarming.

And almost as mind-blowing that it’s Kevin Cash, a guy who could generously be called a mediocre manager who did it.

It just boggles my mind that there’s no approval process for a speech by an 18 year old to hundreds of old people when at my school, we don’t even get to have a Senior Prank that’s not approved and my principal is overall pretty chill.

So, only going for white guys I guess?

One thing that really bothered me yesterday was that I remembered a shitty thing about Trump that I’d forgotten and totally shifted my perception of him. To be clear, I’ve hated him for other things this whole time but it’s still concerning that we have a president who’s done so much bad shit that we can’t keep track…

How did his speech get approved?

That’s awful! A really nice kid from my class died in a car accident a couple years ago in my class and there’s talk that his mother will accept a diploma. The class president will probably mention him in her speech. That’ll be hard enough, I couldn’t imagine someone dying that close to the ceremony.

That’s what my class is like.

I have to wait another month for mine. My friend is valedictorian so I’ll be waiting for her speech. Mostly, I just hope it doesn’t rain though. I went last year and it was in the gym which was pretty unbearable heatwise.

Funny how everyone just seems to suddenly be talented under Stevens. Shane Larkin was a D-Leaguer. Gets to the Celtics and becomes a solid contributor. Rozier is drafted 16th but looks like a solid starter. 3 of the guys you mentioned have only been here the last two years, before which the Celtics were still playing…

No thanks.

I feel you on affirmative action. It favors mostly well off black/Latinx people who already have resources and opportunities to get into elite institutions while not doing much for the majority who are low income. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that when those same people get into positions of power, they don’t do…

At this point, all Israel supporters have left are false dilemma fallacies.
