    Uhh, isn’t the presidency marked by the highest mortality rate amongst professions in the US?

      Can’t really compare a position that only 45 people have had over a 250 year period with regular jobs, though.

      Besides, the last time a president died in office, my boomer dad was 12 years old. The last time a logfighter died on the job was probably some time this month if not this week.

        I think it might be a typo, but I’m absolutely referring to lumberjacks as “log fighters” from now on.

          Nah, I did that shit on purpose, inspired by this comment on gender neutral job titles on the original post from !flippanarchy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 😁

            I genuinely have no idea why someone would downvote source information like this.

              Could be bots or misclicks. I accidentally downvoted a comment just a few hours ago. It felt surprisingly bad even though I quickly fixed it.

                2 misclicks? That seems unlikely. And the accounts aren’t bots, I checked that. One commented in this comment section and seems human, with a year+ old account. The other is active elsewhere. I dunno. It’s probably not worth considering the deficiencies of silly people.

              Some people are just joyless husks, I guess 🤷🏻
