There are reports of a firework mortar and gas canister in the back. Looks very intentional and showy from the video. Stupid way to end one's life, but that was part of it I think as well.
Itchy on your head!
Makes you scratch ya pits!
GOOOOOOOOOOOO LICE!!!!!!!!
We separate Europe, Asia, and Africa because the Ancient Greeks invented the boundaries and terms, and the Romans kept them up.
They lived in the area, so for them, these boundaries were just names given to land on either side of major bodies of water: the Nile, the Black Sea and Rioni river, and the Mediterranean.
They considered Egypt part of Asia for a while, and anything south of the Med as the landmass "Libya." The Romans kept up the same definitions as maps expanded, and just extrapolated from there.
Well, I'm here now. So there's that.
You're welcome. /s
Holy fuck, that's criminally stupid.
Sort of, but of certainly not universal. I use common keyboard shortcuts all the time, but don't know what the one OP was taking about was before just now.
But, older folks seem to never, ever use things like Ctrl+C or Ctrl+P, which drives me crazy. But I've also seen people in the last few years who double click links on websites, and aren't retired yet.
Ultimately, YMMV.
An emerald in a kiwi!
Yes, I understand the difference between communicable and noncommunicable disease.
The point is that media also rarely talk about these things, and people are not great at taking steps to mitigate their risk. Lots of things we can prevent, or not, still cause us lasting harm. But because those things are mundane, they are not clickbait-y enough to warrant regular coverage.
I made the same journey during COVID, ultimately arriving at a similar place that the Nicene Creed was the first in a long line of obvious retconned political and human decisions. For what is worth, I also feel like it's in the same vein as most of what Paul did, codifying and standardizing to the detriment of the source material and to the benefit of anyone willing to take charge.
I'm still genuinely shocked that anyone can read the Gospels and then not see the record-scratch pivot in tone for everything else afterwards. Well, shocked in as far as to then be disappointed at how easily a mess of addenda created something antithetical to a bunch of nebulous good vibes with no clear avenue to monetize it all.
Which, oddly enough, Buddhism does as well, but owns it as part of the process.
It's such a weird movie, but so are all the Christmas movies from around this time. This one really is the Christmas equivalent of Manos: Hands of Fate.
Been right there with you. Have dressed my own livestock many times.
It's never a happy task. It's often a somber task, but practical and rational. Doesn't make it any easier. It's easier for those dong the dispatching to also distance yourself emotionally in order to get the job done and process emotions later.
In helping your ex, you also need to absorb her emotions as well. She's acting out based on any and pain and loss. Let her.
You're dong everything as right as can be done. Trust your gut. You'll be OK on the end.

Thinking this through, they probably filled the car with gas until they couldn't breathe and then hit the firework mortar to set it all off. Also gives them a higher chance of ending it all then, as opposed to the "oops, all fire!" version, which would have been a lingering way to go.
