Im almost at 30k on my 14 also. I just noticed today that my forks feel and sound a little rough.

The TX shooter was wearing a soviet hammer and sickle pin and a **** iron cross on his shirt.
Those two combinations don't go well together.

Apparently he was an oddball trench coat wearing honors student.
I doubt this kid was wearing a trench coat in TX.
The news is unbearable. Instead of reporting on the facts of the shooting they've got a bunch of flakes talking about setting up a national "gun violence victims compensation fund" and all kinds of nonesense.
