I'm at the library at school.
155 people have died in this past week in Iraq due to suicide bombings. A high but not uncommon number. We're bored of this story, its not only not real to us but we tune it out in the news partially because its too awful and partially because we truly don't care.
149 people die in Mexico from a disease that could get us too. The headlines roll in. Fear sweeps the international community. We will do everything we can to prevent the spread of disease. Another human life lost is an insufferable loss to humanity. Fuck you all!
As soon as its coming for us, the plight of the Mexican people is so so tragic. We wish them well. I hope this sorts itself out. Godspeed fuckers.
no disrespect to those who have lost family members, or to the deceased. This is an attack on the media and our society.
