    As a person who grew up in American schools post-Columbine, with kids in schools now, and none of us are CEOs, this is probably the take that saddens me most about this whole event. It’s our kids, and the argument used to be about freedom. Soon, we won’t even have that. What was the fucking point? (Rhetorical: profit)

    I know we’re all alive at a special time in humanity. We think we’re so civilized. Then I look around, and it’s the same history playing on repeat. When do the monkeys figure out it’s one species? (Rhetorical again: 😬)

      On the plus side, maybe this will actually result in some kind of reasonable gun legislation that will trickle down to a reduction of general gun violence. Maybe. Hopefully. Sometimes all it takes is showing the leopard party that their faces are also in danger.

        Trickle down gun reform? I feel like I’ve heard this before

          Maybe the CEO’s will start to fight each other.

          Since the guys who gets rich selling guns want to keep doing that, and the other CEOs want to continue existing without bullets in them… Would they start hiring hitmen on each other??

          Now that’s an interesting situation.

      People aren’t all the same species. People with human bodies come in lots of species on the inside. For example, drag has a pet dragon whose body is human. The world is much more interesting after you realise everyone’s different.

        Yeah, I’m all for pronouns and shit, but no. You don’t.

        You have a pet human? Is that like a sex thing?

            Does drag have any pet dragons in a human body? Is that pet dragon a sex thing?

                Ahh, so that’s why you are the dragon rider 😉

          Because this multiple species take has been a basis of slavery in the past.

          people aren’t realizing this is that crazy guy who thinks he’s a dragon and refers to himself in third person.

            No one’s enslaving anybody. Dreg’s just being a based otherkin and living beyond the limitations of human existence.

            Drag doesn’t use he/him pronouns, and doesn’t identify as a guy. You’re allowed to disagree with drag’s gender identity and think trans people should only be allowed to identify as genders you approve of, but assigning an entirely new gender onto drag is taking things a bit too far.

            Or maybe they’re worried that you’re collecting humans as pets

                They said they have a pet dragon whose body is human. I’m not sure how to parse that, but it could be quite disturbing.

                  It is disturbing to have a body that doesn’t align with my species. If you mean my very existence makes you uncomfortable then kindly shut the fuck up and live and let live.

                I’m very confused by your statement that you have a pet dragon whose body is human.

                  Well you see, drag is a dragon rider, and drag the dragon rider rides a dragon. If you’d like to know more about this kind of relationship, you should read Eragon.
