100% it's different.
Just because a movie has a jump scare it isn't necessarily a scary movie. There's a difference between some existential dread and 'boo'.
I'd argue that the accident is a startle response with body horror mixed in.
Some people are scared of death. Doesn't matter the cause. That's what I'm talking about. It's 100% different than a fatal car accident.

I grew up just outside south Detroit. Those network television shows were nuts. It was the 90s. Crime was everywhere in Detroit. This was the era of hundreds of buildings being burned on devils night, and every single crime was done by the same guy. I remember his description clearly. 5'9-6'. Short hair. Between the ages of 20-35.

I often forget that DNA evidence has been much more important regarding wrongful conviction than any other facet.

A fatal car accident is different. Could be a shock scare or just not wanting to be injured.

Belief in god has no bearing in reality.

Having said that, my grandfather outlived my grandmother by 10-15 years. On his deathbed, he was holding some marriage pictures. He was looking forward to seeing her. Guy believed 100%. Still makes me tear up thinking about it.

I agree with you.
Either the person isn't a 'good follower' and isn't going to the good place.
Or they don't actually believe. Because there should be no fear or apprehension about going to the good place

I've heard, so take with a grain of salt, that China likes Chiang's ideology that China should be reunified.
The disagreement was who should be in power after.
The removal of the statues somehow indicates they don't want reunion.

'As I lay dying' might appeal to you. It's another song that's great but nothing like the other stuff in the catalog piece

You could say it was 'state of the art'

Lol. I'm the opposite. Love his other stuff. I can sing along to most of the songs on two albums, but that hit... It's an instant classic, but very much a pop song. His other stuff is almost antipop

Most reddit users are bots.
Most human reddit users are lurkers.

What's the ratio of active to lurker user on fediverse users?

Fascism doesn't exist without capitalism. There's been vicious and authoritarian socialist/communist states, but not fascist

The guys unhinged. He puts Matt groening orbiting the center of some great conspiracy while at the same time his main point is correct.

I've seen people fall down these rabbit holes and have them trigger something that drives them away from sanity. It's sad af
