I’m in my 40s and dealt with a lot of pain and gum recession because I didn’t develop good habits as a kid. Parents, teach your children to floss. Gentle, compassionate dentists are not as easy to find as you might think. Your kids will suffer later in life if you don’t emphasize good dental care.
The facts aren’t inherently ghoulish. The media attention to every macabre detail and society’s hunger for such trivialities is.
Nothing in this story or series of details helps to further the case of negligence. It serves only to feed the rage and satiate morbid curiosity.
And what part of this particular piece of journalism do you feel assists us in that endeavor?
We get it. They died. It’s tragic but this coverage is unnecessary and gratuitous.
That took me a bit to figure out- me being the suspicious type and new to fedi, I needed to investigate. So a bug prompted me to learn something about how this place functions.
My childhood of Sesame Street and Transformers and Dr. Suess didn’t prepare me adequately for the horrors of humanity.
But at least I didn’t become a monkey torturer. So there’s that.
It’s interesting how some things have changed over the years when it comes to chat rooms. And how other things haven’t. When I first started in The Palace the internet was new, and chat rooms were for shut-ins, agoraphobes, and nerds. We basically lived on the internet. So it made sense to some to treat the room as a place you entered and left.
Now you can sit on a discord server on mobile and have a life, pop in the middle of a conversation somewhere and then leave it. And some servers still suggest you greet a room like you live there.
It’s like, when I was a kid, having internet access to all human knowledge, anywhere, would have been a divine gift. Now we all have computers in our pockets and some people still argue about basic facts that can be resolved instantly. We treat technology very strangely.
