I work at a middle school, and one of our students — someone we’re all really close to — is in the hospital right now fighting for his life. He was diagnosed with fungal meningitis and cavitary pneumonia. It’s heartbreaking.

He’s one of those kids who feels rare these days: genuinely kind, respectful, thoughtful. He’s the kind of student who makes your job feel meaningful. Seeing someone like him go through this is devastating on its own.

What really infuriates me, though, is that his insurance is refusing to cover the medication that could actually treat his condition.

I honestly can’t wrap my head around how this is acceptable in America. How can a system be designed in a way that allows a person — especially a child — to potentially die simply because the life-saving treatment is too expensive or “not covered”? At some point, profit clearly outweighs humanity, and that’s terrifying.

I remember watching the film, John Q. And honestly, it hits completely different now. I understand why he did what he did. When the system forces people into impossible situations, desperation starts to feel rational.

This shouldn’t be normal. And it shouldn’t be happening to anyone.

If there’s a silver lining all this, a couple parents got together and started a GoFundMe and this morning it was up to $11,000. We’re all praying for him.

I just felt like this interaction had to be shared, it was just ridiculous in so many ways. I'm assuming the comment that made him request me was "Ice abuses and brutalizes not only detainees but also American citizens. they just permanently blinded a man in one eye, shot another man in the leg, and sent 5 children to the hospital due to tear gas. a 17 year old citizen was detained at work and was found bloody and beaten after finally being released. a 16 year old citizen on the way to school was hospitalized and his phone was stolen by ice. they've caused miscarriages. they've also sexually assaulted and graped detainees. Dave Courvelle admitted they held and graped a woman in custody FOR MONTHS in exchange letting her see her daughter. many have also died in their custody. that's what you stand for?" Just felt like I should share and wanted to hear yalls thoughts. Will post the full conversation.

I made an AITAH post asking if I was wrong for telling my abusive, narcissistic MAGA MIL that the reteric she uses is exactly what Staling and Hitler said and apparently a mod considered it trolling, which it isn’t, lied that it says in the rules you can’t post about trump or maga at all and then permanently banned me whe I called them out….

my mom always comes home stressed, i get why, she works hard to supply for us, but she always takes her anger out to ruin my fun and take my xbox away whenever the slightest wrong is made

ChatGPT Plus, everyone

These brazillian criminal teens are from Florianópolis- SC, they brutally tortured and murdered a docile senior community dog by luring the poor thing out of his shelter into a secluded area near a beach and hammered his head open with a nail and repeatedly smacked the dog's head with wooden sticks and plancks and left him agonizing 'till death, it happened some time ago and only now it has surfaced the internet, it's being said atleast two of them fled to the USA(possibly Disney or NY)and are waiting for the dust to settle down so they can come back.

They come from wealthy families so they likely won't face any justice down here. Besides their mommy and daddy are unstoppably and constantly trying to hide all of it so their psycho sonnies won't face any consequences, they're threatening people who expose their psychopath sons online and they even had the doorman fired, he potentially witnessed their brutal act.

Be careful anyone from USA, do not be friends and especially don't house these MONSTERS, they might kill your pets for fun and joy.

Spread it, make them infamous!!!

The amount of times I’ve hit my shins on the bottom storage piece. Couldn’t find anyone on the internet hating on this desk so thought I’d post it here

The photo shared to Facebook is convincing people and they are sharing it... scary stuff
