    Regina Santos-Aviles, 35, died on Sept. 14 after she doused herself with an accelerant and set herself ablaze at her home on Geraldine Avenue in Uvalde, Texas, Bexar County officials determined.

    What a horrible way to go. Self-immolating isn’t really a typical suicide plan, is it? I’m sure the Uvalde PD did a thorough job investigating it, and are total professionals, and there’s no chance they are covering something up and it was really a murder.

        It’s pretty rare that anyone does that. The only cases I’m aware of is someone doing a protest.

        Ima bet poison then burning the body.

        It’s a lag thing. Sometimes you click the shoot button 6 times with perfect aim off the wall but it doesn’t seem like it loads, so you just drop a cocktail and it all suddenly loads at once.

        Life is a simulation I hear
