As a Mpls resident: WE DO NOT WANT ICE HERE. They are sowing chaos and instigating violence, KILLING CITIZENS, and stoking fear. This is fucked up. Immigrants work harder than any of these pigs toward the good ol’ “American Dream” that hardly exists as it is. FUCK ICE. GET OUT OF MINNEAPOLIS.

Here I display single year age total and by firearm suicide death rates by single year age up to age 84 for Democratic and Republican voting states. |See text for more information. 🧪💡☠️ #Sociology #Population #Republican #Democratic
The order of the colored limes is a bit confusing so let's look at them in order from the bottom to the top.

The bottom line of square yellow dots shows the suicide death rates by firearms in the Democratic voting states by age as you follow that line you get the firearm suicide rates by age from age nine through age 84. The age group 85+ is excluded because it is hard to interpret because nobody lives through it. 

The pattern is generally followed by each of the groups, from age 9 through 22 the firearm suicide rate goes up. Then it sharply shifts to nearly level line that slightly increases up to age 55 when all but Democratic firearm suicides decline until about age 70  when the rate slightly more than  doubles at the end. 

Next, let's do  the line of green diamonds, the total Democratic voting states, their being lower at the right end actually makes them lower than the Republican voting states firearm suicides. 

They follow the same pattern as the Democrats by firearms except they decline from age 55 to about 70. Then they increase like the others but at a less steep rate in increase. 

Next to the top is  the Republican's suicides by firearms. They follow the  Democratic voting states almost exactly to age 20 then they edge down to bouncing between two and three points below the Democrats total until age 65 when they exhibit the steepest increase in the final years. 

The last line is the red diamonds for the Republican total which is consistently the highest. They follow the pattern of the total Democrat line of dots but generally get closer to the total Democratic line  at the end. 

Here are the two letter abbreviations for states:

CA	AZ	AL
CO	GA	AK
CT	IA	AR
DE	MI	FL
DC	MN	ID

This is the result of decades of civic poisoning by Fox News and right-wing echo chambers and channels.
A screenshot of a post on X by user Suzie Rizzo (@SUZIERIZZO1
). The post includes a text graphic with an orange background and black text that reads: "WHEN did America become a place where people take joy in suffering? Celebrating job losses, cheering immigrant arrests, ignoring terrified schoolchildren, and applauding when neighbors lose public assistance—what happened to basic human decency?" Above the graphic, Suzie Rizzo's comment reads: "Anyone want to answer this??? "

I feel like we remove power from amazon by NOT TALKING ABOUT AMAZON. Mention the library. Mention the indie bookseller. Mention the direct stores. LINK to the publisher or the direct store or the author website. You don’t even have to bring up Amazon or link to them.

I hate to break to Trump but Two-Spirit (trans) people have existed here in North America for thousands of years. They predate the arrival of white people and their “Christianity.” Trans people will be here long after Trump is dead and gone.

Working on a paper with some folks that in part highlights issues with sweeping encampments of homeless folks for “public health and safety risks”. Whose perceived safety is really at risk? Not the homeless, who deserve adequate shelter. Stop using public health as an excuse to police and displace.

Assessments with the rise of ChatGPT and AI in classrooms need to change too. I would love a return to pen and paper essays, or even oral exams — especially for upper level undergraduate courses. Can students carry a conversation about the course for 15-20 mins with their instructor?
