Columbine happened at the end of my junior year. There were (rumored?) bomb threats about the prom that year, but they were quickly debunked. I don’t think we had any threats of anything my senior year.
One of mine was in first grade at the time of Sandy Hook. I don’t know if that’s why it really started on my radar or what, but I just feel like from then on out they’ve just been practically nonstop.

One of mine was in first grade when 20 first graders were slaughtered at Sandy Hook, so I feel like it really touched a nerve with me. Unfortunately it doesn’t always work out when they take the bus, but I drop them off fairly regularly. When I do, I always tell them “I love you; have a good day” when they’re getting out of the car. Though they’re teenagers now and usually have headphones in. 😒

I feel like they used to be pretty consistent at least. I feel like, at least the last few months one outlet says 8 feet of snow, another says 50° and nothing but rain, yet another says no precipitation but 80 billion mph winds.

As somebody who lives in western PA, I can assure you, it is not.

Don’t know why you were downvoted. They literally have Dutch Wonderland. 🤣

If they’re not calling you back, do you have somebody that can go to the office and stand at the desk and raise a ruckus until they call you and straighten it out. I don’t remember the exact process, but I know there is a way to vote from your hospital room even if you intended to vote in person and got admitted at 6:30 a.m. Election Day.
Edit: I’m not suggesting anybody get violent or anything like that. Just be problematic enough to get addressed but not arrested.

Very good point. Other countries have figured this shit out, but somehow we just can’t seem to.
