I 100% believe that Facebook and friends are contributing to this trend but it’s important to note that the linked study does not conclude that causation is present:

There is an independent association between problematic use of social media/internet and suicide attempts in young people. However, the direction of causality, if any, remains unclear. Further evaluation through longitudinal studies is needed.

Imagine if Google had simply not made Google Search shit

Woman Accidentally Bombs Self

This reminds me of that chapter in Flowers for Algernon.

My only agenda here is reminding y’all that all of this could have been avoided. I’m sorry there wasn’t a better party than the Dems. I truly am. But what the fuck are you gonna do about it? How does abstaining from voting further that goal?

Where are all of y’all dumb motherfuckers that were going on about how the two party system is rigged and you wanted RCV, and therefore you couldn’t vote for Democrats because they weren’t adequately enthused about the idea

Where the fuck are you bitches

Why would it not be bad

See, no, it’s funny because… um… gay. And if you’re gay, that means you want to kiss. And I definitely don’t want to kiss, haha, unless? Wait no just kidding, haha,

Do the dolphins aim the pee fountain into the whale urine funnel?

What else am I going to do with my time, read a book? I can’t even read an article!

Beer isn’t a problem, it’s a complex mixture.

Can we not? MTG could look like Sofia Vergara and she’d still be an ugly piece of shit. All commenting on her appearance does here is make decent people feel bad about themselves. Transphobia doesn’t suddenly become acceptable because you’re trying to turn it back on somebody evil.

NY post needs to hire some copy editors. That article does not flow at all.

Not to put too fine a point on it but whose fault is that?

Plastic bags work fine. Preferably zip lock baggies. ALSO keep them in the freezer. One time we wound up with jenkem on Accident and you don’t want jenkem. It’s illegal and believe me, Nobody can do That Much jenkem.

Why would the poors join up if their families didn’t need Tricare? The bennies are a primary draw, they can’t hand that shit out to everyone

Ha! Three and a half parents! I knews aliens were real!

At least we try to keep it in check and don’t deny it happens.

but that’s what you just did in your defense of RCMP?

ACAB is a slogan. It’s not factual in the strictest sense but it captures a truth. Statistically speaking, there is at least one good cop. Maybe even two. Real Andy Griffith, Carlton Lassiter types. Their existence does not change the fact that the system is rotten to the very core, and their tacit support for that system makes them bastards, even if they themselves have never abused anyone or covered for a colleague’s malpractice. Good cops exist, but they don’t last very long.

And as the sibling comment pointed out, institutionally speaking the RCMP is a god awful example if you’re trying to make a case for good cops.
