Actually died? Lol, no. Four out of 46, or roughly 8-9%. Lincoln, garfield, mckinley, kennedy.

If you include those shot at you can up those numbers a bit. Off the top of my head roosevelt, trump, reagan, and the other roosevelt, ford,

Jackson is the fun story, where an assassin pulled two pistols and both of them misfired or jammed. Taft had an assassin apprehended before he shot. Truman had assassins in the white house, but wasn’t in immediate shooting range/sight line. Nixon had a guy who wanted to shoot him, but the car went by too fast, so the assassin later shot a governor. Obama and clinton both had rifles fired at the white house.

So if we include everything involving firearms, we have lincoln, garfield, mckinley, kennedy, roosevelts 1&2, ford, reagan, jackson, obama, and clinton. That’s 11/46, or ~24%. Bump that up a wee bit if you want taft to be included.

There’s also some standouts for grenades and bombs, but we were originally talking about death by being shot, so…

That’s the one song I was so happy to finally remember and add to my playlist. It was always thumping in the back of my head but I could never bring it up when downloading songs.

Three dudes, luxury cars. The highlight of all the articles is a wildlife expert that is quoted: “It’s clearly a person in a bear suit.”

Don’t worry, spawn would take care of him in a few seconds once the weird fetus demon was handled.

Thanks. I think you’re cuter though.

New york being above new jersey, maryland, or virginia is surprising to me, but then, this is probably only counting where a hurricane made landfall. I tried to find a breakdown of per state costs over this time, but didn’t find much that was more specific. Noaa’s website lists total economic damage in the trillions, but not per state.

I would bet florida would still be at the top, followed by texas, but I would be curious about the middle of the list. Mississippi/alabama would likely move up, because they would get a lot of the brunt when louisiana/texas/mississippi took the ‘direct hit,’ because of the eastern side being the ‘dirty side’ of a hurricane. There might even be something unexpected, like arkansas/kentucky jumping up. They often take the fallout of a storm as it begins moving northeast after landfall.

It’s also interesting to see how different the severity of the storms are. The eastern coast has less % of cat 3-5 storms. Moving northward, they go 13.6% / 16.6% / 12.7% / 20% / 8.3% while the gulf states are, moving westward, 30.8% / 20.8% / 42.1% / 31.4% / 29.6%. Off hand I would have agreed with that idea, but nice to see stats on it. Low numbers make bigger percentages easier to happen, but it’s still surprising to see that 20% of the storms that hit new york were severe.

I don’t even care if the actual word is “good.” Just some positive affirmation would have me leaking.

Turn off notifications. Even if they reply, you’ll never see it. One comment, if you have to, and then you ‘walk away.’

The first time my hawaiian friend fried the spam my mind was blown. No one I knew had ever cooked it, and we all thought it was nasty.

I don’t remember who said it, but I’ve always remembered the best description of the whole process as: “my body is punishing me for not being pregnant.”

Always gets a sympathetic groan.

That’s odd, because it’s the exact opposite in my experience. I know of at least two friends who went to a vet and their ‘dog’ was diagnosed with back pain and a drug prescribed for it, because the price of the animal’s drug was wildly cheaper.

Throw in that athenian politician who has a name I never remember… One of the ‘charges’ against him was that he was acting as a bottom despite being older. The athenian pederasty had the older man taking a younger man as ‘appropriate,’ while the reverse was viewed as scandalous.

Blackmail tax, or ‘we’ll prosecute you under anti-gay laws or something later’ tax.

How did you get started? Did you contact an outside union for help? I see you mentioned CWA in the comments, and I think they’re the ones I was eyeing for my area, since they recently got a similar set of employees set up with a union.

Right? If you can’t find something in the bible to support whatever it is that you’re doing, you probably just haven’t looked hard enough. And you can also just start quoting from the 2000 years of ‘religious scholars’ if you really need to get something going.

As much as I want anything trump related to be a slur/insult to him, there’s also a part of me that wants him to be one of those individuals ‘erased’ from history.

Whatever the person ranting can contort it to be. I’m of the thought that your aboveposter was referring to that, due to the use of quotation marks.

No, that’s actually a thing, private or public. We treat at the scene, unless there is a need to get to the ER for something that we can’t do. CPR, as an example, is pretty much the exact same thing when a paramedic is conducting it at a scene and in the ER. You might have some more people around, but the drugs being given and the device used to deliver shocks are exactly the same.* We have ‘standing orders’ for termination of cpr depending on how things are going (20 minutes and 30 minutes, respectively, for our agency), and we wouldn’t be transporting the body afterwards.

This is also how it is in cases of obvious, unattended death. The cops get called, they call us, we throw electrodes on and print a flatline for the cops, and leave (the cops then wait for the coroner/medical examiner [medical examiners are fancier and only the big cities have them] who then leaves and the cops call [well, they should have already called] the mortuary/funeral home and then they take the body).

The point is, the hospitals don’t want a dead body to deal with, so unless the person is alive or close enough to alive (I’ve transported ‘corpses’ that are having blood pumped by machines for organ harvesting purposes, it’s really weird/unsettling the first few times) that they’re still kicking, the ambulances don’t transport. Looking at it from another point of view, we have live patients waiting on us to come, why would we waste our time transporting a dead one to a funeral home?

*not even kidding; the monitors on the back of the stretcher are often THE EXACT SAME as the ones hanging in the trauma room of the ER.

I personally think Kesha being a fox-bee in an adult cartoon is much better for an example of a popular singer having a great fursona.

Supposedly the video portion is fine because of some specifics of how PII is worded/used/defined. It is, at the very least, such a small window into the rear compartment that combined with the angle you can’t see much. Also supposedly, it’s why the internal camera doesn’t record audio (which none of us believe but the videos they share never have audio).
