i know it’s easy to look at male suicide statistics and go “wow, toxic masculinity really is killing men” and i have nothing but my own experience to share because as far as i can tell no one collects data on the conditions of people who die by suicide, just the fact that they die by suicide. but i would like to throw out there that the suicide widow facebook group i’m in, that has thousands of members, has so many women whose husbands killed themselves after having abused them for years/decades or being caught with child pornography/having abused a child in their family that i literally do not feel comfortable posting in it because it feels like i’m throwing it in their face that i didn’t have to deal with that. 

On that note, this guy’s anonymity went so far that the other actors on Game of Thrones didn’t know that he was the drummer from Coldplay (source: Fire Cannot Kill a Dragon by James Hibberd)

They didn't do nothing.

Hey so the trolley problem is dumb because the real person at fault for any of the deaths is the person who designed the trolley without an emergency braking system, the people who put in the purchase order for a trolley without an emergency braking system, the people who approved a PO for a trolley without an emergency braking system, the people who delivered a trolley without an emergency braking system, the organization that inspected and certified a trolley without an emergency braking system,and the operator who did not make a huge stink about being assigned to a trolley without an emergency braking system.

“But, Cody, what if there was an emergency braking system, and it failed?”

Any accident investigator will tell you that an accident is caused by a chain of incidents, and there were always several places the disaster could have been stopped.

Whether you pull the lever is not “irrelevant”. It causes four fewer people to die! If that’s not relevant, then what is?!
