Yeah, if it was my friend’s wife, I wouldn’t be digging into those details either. Even if she’s completely in lala land about the reasoning, whatever it takes to deal with that pain. Not my place to challenge that.

I have no idea how this keeps her insured. In most of America, after 1 year of medical leave your job can be terminated.

The school shooting in Uvalde lends some compelling evidence to that idea.

Indeed. This is America

Edit: I don’t understand why hugg_Jeggs’ comment has been down voted(yes, I agree vote count doesn’t really matter). It’s a fair point. The system is fucked, but it is a government of the people. Yep, a government that has effectively insulated itself from the people, but that only works if we allow it. I don’t agree that is necessarily on one individual’s decision to end life instead of saddle loved ones with dealing with debt, but I do think it’s a perspective with merit. That is my reasoning for upvoting the comment.

So I’m honestly curious, what about the comment earns your downvote? Thanks for your input.

This is America

Na. Fuck that.

I’m weird cause I’m fabulous! I hope you can be weird, too.

This is my plan when a major illness rears its head.

Price increases

The worsening of recommendations/algorithm pointing to more crap content

Glad you enjoy it. Keep doing your thing. But are you seriously deaf to the rising chorus of complaints about YouTube? This thread contains many examples of youtube’s enshitification over the few couple years. Your question feels disingenuous at best to me
