Yeah, this place can be kind of particular. I tend to stay quiet on shit I don’t align with 100%. This is just something that’s well studied with good data. If people refuse to accept reality we can’t really fix shit.

Crime victimization survey is, and can be used in conjunction with crime justice system statistics.

3mo gamepass, 6mo walmart shit (you can use their gas pumps and get free deliveries), download videos and some AI features about videos and comments.
