i think people are missing one of the funniest reactions to the whole mario movie reveal

Hey remember when they found over 200 bodies of native children buried behind a residential school and the world cared for... what, a week?

They've counted about 6,000-7,000 now, for those of you who do still care

It should NOT fall on Indigenous people's shoulders to keep this known still. We’ve been doing that for generations at this point and NO ONE wants to listen to us.

We’re tired, mourning and constantly reopening our trauma and pain to keep people caring about us. It’s terrible.

I should start by noting that I am white, and not Canadian, and that if op wants me to remove this comment for any reason, please let me know.

This is a map of all the residential schools in Canada:

[link to the article it’s attached to, it’s interactable there, so you can get a better look around]

Each dot on this map represents a residential school. Blue dots mean the school is considered completely searched. Yellow dots mean they are either in the process of being searched or there are plans to be searched. Red dots indicate that no search has happened and that no search is currently planned

There were more than 130 residential schools in Canada. This map suggests that only six have been fully searched, and a little more than a dozen partially searched (I counted 15 yellow dots). That leaves at least 109 schools completely untouched.

Let that sink in; if 6,000-7,000 unmarked, indigenous children’s graves were found by searching less than a fifth of all the schools, how many are still undiscovered.

Wikipedia estimates that the body count could be over 50,000, and honestly, that could be a low estimate

I'd like to add that the map above is not 100% accurate. The 5 Residential School in Newfoundland and Labrador, which affected mainly Innu and Inuit communities, were not included in the original settlement deal made by the Government of Canada, and aren't included in many maps. The schools not included are:

Lockwood School (Cartwright, Labrador)

Makkovik Boarding School (Makkovik, Labrador)

Nain Boarding School (Nain, Labrador)

St. Anthony Orphanage and Boarding School (St. Anthony, Newfoundland)

Yale School: (Northwest River, Labrador)

runescape is exactly like real life in every way

gravegospel

when i was like eleven years old and barely able to speak english i was playing runescape and i was so stoked since it was my birthday i went around just telling people in town.

someone was like “yo happy birthday do you want me to trim your armor for you as a gift?” i gave them my gear to “trim it” and they took me out into the wilderness fucking killed me then left the world. since then i’ve only ever known suffering so i can’t say this post is inaccurate
