Those two were absolutely hoping Ethan would kill himself, and they deserve more than they got.

Technically it's the other way around, teeth are modified fish scales from some of the earliest jawed fish that became the common ancestors of just about every living vertebrate.

So really your mouth is an inside-out shark.

Is there a brief overview of why that's the case, and why this is schad? It's not apparent from the article. Knowing nothing else about the matter, it looks like another episode of "well, we can't possibly actually ban guns, like a sane society".

I got this title for the dumbest fucking possible take on sea shanties. Specifically, I derailed the meme thread because sailors in the 18th century weren't woke enough for me, and you shouldn't sing sea shanties. In fact, don't have any fun ever.

I saw this video about it recently.
spoilered for discussion of hosed up poo poo

Some highlights:
  • bought their son a gun
  • stored the gun in a safe with the combination 000
  • kid claimed to be seeing demons in text messages
  • parents ignored the text messages, including when the kid texted "can you at least text back"
  • kid drew a picture of a gun and wrote "the thoughts won't stop, help me" and "my life is useless" and "blood everywhere" on a math assignment
  • when shown this paper at a meeting with a school counselor, the parents left the meeting within 12 minutes and did not want to pull the kid out of class
  • and oh yeah that meeting was the SAME DAY THE KID SHOT UP THE SCHOOL

It would be comical if it weren't so tragic. like, if they were villains in a cartoon you'd think they were too unbelievably over the top. But it's hard to feel much schad tbh; even if the parents have gotten what they deserve, four kids died. And the mentally ill 15-year-old was apparently tried as an adult and given life without parole, so it's hard to be say that any kind of justice has been done.

Their son had absurdly vivid, like you wouldn’t believe this poo poo if it were in a movie, warning signs. Like, texting his mom that he is scared of the “demons” throwing dishes in the house. Texting a friend that he asked his dad to take him to the doctor, but dad said “suck it up”.

So what do they do? They buy him a gun.

On 30 November 2021, he makes a drawing of his gun (it’s a pretty decent rendition) on a geometry worksheet, with the words “The thoughts won’t stop Help me” and a human figure in a pool of blood, next to the words “Blood everywhere”.

His parents are called to school to discuss this. They arrive and talk with the guidance counsellor, who is concerned about Ethan’s suicidal ideation.

Ethan has the gun at school this day. Do his parents look for the gun? Alert anyone to its existence? Take their son out of school? No. They leave, twelve minutes after arriving. By lunchtime, Ethan has shot up the place.

yes well it may perhaps soothe you to know that the shooter's parent's are deeply troubled and probably undiagnosed broken people as well and raised another human who committed a single digit massacre and for that they are where they belong under the boot of the justice system

If there is a single couple in history who are responsible for the harm their child caused, it is James and Jennifer Crumbley.

It’s not schadenfreude, but it is an unambiguously positive development that those two will rot in jail.

this is one of those edge cases of Hanlon's razor where ignorance kind of is malice, but I could 100% see their mentality being "it'll just resolve itself if we get through this", not "ok now he'll kill himself". Either way, seems like the right judgment was made.

An insurance company might total it because the cost to replace everything inside is likely more than the value of the vehicle.

i've never had such a ride of righteous emotions be dashed before my eyes since [any leftist politician].

for schad i wish i had pictures but after my grandma passed my dad and i decided to finish the attic of her house to rent/sell the place and did such a bad job the plasterer almost quit when seeing it. It just seems so easy when you're lining up boards with studs, but drat, that poo poo looked like a Tim Burton movie before the guy (that we paid generously) fixed our fuckups.
