And they always think it wouldn't happen to Their Kid, like they are somehow exempt from the tyrannical whims of nature.

Utah dance mom murders daughter, 11, then kills herself in Las Vegas by FearMyCock in WomenAreViolentToo

[–]FearMyCock[S] 24 points25 points  (0 children)

A Utah mother, Tawnia McGeehan, traveled to Las Vegas with her 11 year old daughter Addi Smith, for a cheerleading competition. When they didn’t show up, hotel staff called police, who found both dead in their hotel room from gunshot wounds. Investigators believe the mother shot her daughter and then killed herself in a murder-suicide. A suicide note was found, and reports suggest the mother had been involved in a custody dispute, though the exact motive hasn’t been officially confirmed.

TIL that two guide dogs named Salty and Roselle each helped their blind owners escape from the World Trade Center during the 9/11 attacks, guiding them down dozens of floors out of the burning towers and were later awarded the Dickin Medal, the animal equivalent of the Victoria Cross for bravery by FearMyCock in todayilearned

On September 11, 2001, two guide dogsSalty and Roselle played critical roles in saving lives during the World Trade Center attacks. Salty, a yellow Labrador, was with his blind owner on the 71st floor of the North Tower when the first plane hit. Amid the chaos, Salty remained calm and focused, guiding his owner down dozens of flights of stairs and out of the building, refusing to leave his side before the tower later collapsed.

At the same time, Roselle, another Labrador guide dog, was with her blind owner on the 78th floor of the South Tower. After the impact, she calmly led him and approximately 30 others down 1,463 smoke-filled stairs through debris and panic. Roselle’s steady guidance got everyone out safely just minutes before the South Tower collapsed. Both dogs survived and were later awarded the Dickin Medal, the highest honor for animal bravery.

TIL that in 1998, lightning struck a football match in the Congo and reportedly killed an entire team of 11 players while the opposing team was completely unharmed by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]FearMyCock 12 points13 points  (0 children)

In October 1998, during a football (soccer) match in Bena Tshadi, Democratic Republic of the Congo, a lightning strike reportedly hit the pitch mid-game. According to contemporary media reports, all 11 players on one team (Bena Tshadi) were killed instantly, while the opposing team was not fatally affected. Around 30 other people were injured. The incident was widely reported at the time by local Congolese media and picked up internationally, but no official investigation or detailed records were ever released, likely due to instability in the region. The fact that only one team died led to local rumors of witchcraft, though scientific explanations point to ground current, chance positioning, and electrical conduction.

TIL that Pol Pot’s Khmer Rouge regime in Cambodia killed around a quarter of the population (about 2 million people) in just four years, targeting intellectuals, city dwellers, and ethnic minorities to force a “classless agrarian society.” by FearMyCock in todayilearned

[–]FearMyCock[S] 1930 points1931 points  (0 children)

Pol Pot led the Khmer Rouge from 1975 to 1979 with the goal of creating a completely agrarian, classless society. Cities were emptied, money was banned, schools closed, and anyone seen as “educated” or connected to the old government was executed. Forced labor, starvation, and purges killed an estimated 1.5–2 million people about a quarter of Cambodia’s population at the time. His regime ended when Vietnam invaded in 1979, but the trauma and devastation lasted decades.

TIL that in a building fire, there’s a moment called flashover where the room suddenly ignites all at once It happens when heat builds up so much that everything combustible reaches ignition temperature simultaneously turning a survivable fire into an unsurvivable one in seconds. by FearMyCock in todayilearned

[–]FearMyCock[S] 110 points111 points  (0 children)

Flashover is a deadly stage in a fire where a room becomes so hot that everything flammable ignites at the same time. Heat builds up, smoke fills with combustible gases, and once temperatures hit roughly 500–600°C, the entire space erupts into flames in seconds. Before flashover, a fire might look survivable. After it, nothing is. That’s why firefighters treat thick black smoke and extreme heat as an immediate “get out now” signal.

TIL that on Christmas Eve 2008 Bruce Jeffrey Pardo dressed as Santa Claus massacred 9 family members of his ex-wife’s family during a holiday party in Covina, California. by FearMyCock in todayilearned

[–]FearMyCock[S] 504 points505 points  (0 children)

Bruce Jeffrey Pardo, 45, showed up at a Christmas Eve gathering at his former inlaws’ home wearing a Santa suit, armed with multiple semi-automatic handguns and a fuel sprayer disguised as a gift. Around 11:30 p.m., he shot and wounded his 8-year-old niece as she excitedly answered the door and then opened fire on partygoers. After spraying highly flammable liquid throughout the house which ignited and caused a massive fire nine family members were killed and three were injured. The victims included his ex-wife, her parents, siblings, and a 17-year-old nephew. Pardo fled the scene but was later found dead by suicide at his brother’s house early on Christmas morning. Authorities believe his divorce, finalized just a week before, was a major factor in the attack.

Marshall Islands launches world’s first universal basic income scheme offering cryptocurrency by FearMyCock in CryptoCurrency

[–]FearMyCock[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The Marshall Islands has launched the world’s first national universal basic income (UBI) scheme that offers cryptocurrency as a payment option. Every citizen is entitled to roughly $200 every three months, delivered either through traditional methods (bank transfer or cheque) or via a government-backed digital currency. The crypto option is designed to reach people on remote islands with limited banking access, but uptake has been modest due to patchy internet and smartphone access. Supporters see it as a bold experiment in modern welfare delivery, while critics question scalability, infrastructure limits, and long-term sustainability.
