2 Billion years of Tectonic History for Jom'Gol !!!!

After simulating the plate tectonics for an excruciating 2.5 billion years (not irl time, but might as well have been), I made this crude animation of the previous 2.5 billion years of tectonic history!

Although very crude, the simple borders represent landmasses, the scratchy lines represent orogeny or mountain ranges. Every frame is 50 million years (date listed at the top). (also little sounds in there too .w.)

I intend to add an additional space in between each frame for every 25 million years, then probably color them with a basic topographic map. Until then !!! I continue on !!!!

I dunno how i missed this until just now. A six year old got mad at his teacher so he shot her from the gun he probably got from his parents. His parents (or a relative at least) probably decided to “teach them young” and groomed their child into thinking that guns are good.

She’s stable as of right now, at least. I don’t know anything about the kid’s parents yet. All I got was “they could be charged.” Could.

Edit: The gun was from his mom. (The link could automatically play videos with audio on full. I automatically mute before clicking news link now so I don’t know if this one does or not.)

So let’s speedrun through the gun nut’s talking points

“If only there were good six year olds with guns.”

“If only the teachers were armed”

“We need MORE police in school!”

“We need less doors and windows!”

“Why are you blaming the inanimate object (the weapon that’s the cause of the teacher’s injury) instead of the mentally ill shooter?!” (The six year old who was taught how guns works for some reason.)

Edit: “How do YOU plan on enforcing gun control? It’s impossible. (Ignore every country where gun control works please.)” (England, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, etc.)

Edit 2: Apparently gun nuts can’t read because I still got the dumbass “how do you plan to enforce gun control?!” question from multiple people.

This week, Arizona voters narrowly passed Proposition 308, which allows undocumented students both access to in-state tuition rates and state-funded financial aid.  

Though Prop 308 only passed by less than 60,000 votes, the move is a significant one. In 2006, Arizona voters passed Proposition 300, which did the opposite – prohibiting undocumented students from both. Until this vote, Arizona was one of three states, including Georgia and Indiana, to specifically block undocumented students’ access to cheaper in-state tuition – making it one of the most draconian policies in the country. (Alabama and South Carolina both go a step further: prohibiting undocumented students from enrolling in any public postsecondary institution whatsoever, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures.) 

--

For Erika Andiola, communications director at the Young Center for Immigrant Children’s Rights, [the election’s] results were personal.  

Andiola was a sophomore on scholarship at Arizona State University in 2006, when Proposition 300 was first passed. The next year, she received a letter: If she couldn’t provide a social security number, she would lose all her state-funded financial aid...

Luckily for Andiola, Arizona State University set up a fund allowing currently enrolled undocumented students to continue with their education – it was through that fund that she was able to graduate. Now, with the passage of Prop 308, all of that is changed. 

“I’m so happy that young people don’t have to go through that,” she said.  

--

Arizona will now join 19 other states that allow for in-state tuition rates for undocumented students, according to NCSL: Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Kansas, Maryland, Minnesota, Nebraska, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, Texas, Utah and Washington.  

At least eight of those states, including Arizona, also allow undocumented students to receive state financial aid. That Arizona is now one of those states shows just how far the tide has turned since 2006. 

--

Now, 74% of Americans support giving permanent legal status to undocumented people who came to the US as children, according to a 2020 survey by the Pew Research Center.  

Arizona’s legislative history is part of what makes Prop 308’s passage so significant. If such a measure can pass there, Andiola said, then it can happen in other states – maybe even nationwide.  

“This is an indication that there is a change in the hearts and minds of people in Arizona, and possibly around the country, when it comes to undocumented youth,” she said. “We have the support of the public. We just need the support of people who are in power.”” 11/17/22

No matter what Trump did, or didn’t do, this is very bad for the country. Israel and India as well are going through tough political times too, the schism between left and right seems to ever widening. We live in troubled times.
