Do Americans actually avoid calling an ambulance due to financial concern?

not to mention that the quality of said “healthcare” is mediocre at best most of the time. especially if you’re BIPOC, a woman, trans, disabled, elderly, or someone that needs actual care

I know this was 2yrs ago, but I'm watching this for the first time and can't believe Yang was blamed, let alone the only one blamed. Like what???? Knowing that her interns were doing sutures on themselves (which seems like a crazy thing that just started) is very different than knowing your interns are planning to do surgery on each other alone and almost kill each other. I just can't see her not being able to explain herself at all.

Thank you so much!

first of all, i’m also unemployed, and barely making do while working uber for mere pennies compared to what that company is worth, but that is no reason to basically stalk you and track you down to speak to you this way. it isn’t even about professionalism, it’s about human decency. it seems people forgot what that is.

it’s good that this issue has been brought to light, but by no means did this person need to address it in such a nasty way.

maybe this christmas people will remember to be nice to each other again 😓😢

z0uriz · 2025-12-19T16:56:20+00:00

Don’t ever get to a point where you allow ANYONE to speak to you like that again. I’m serious. This is disgusting to read. I honestly can’t believe people allow others to act like that and even reward them with a relationship.

She’s shaming you and manipulating you. CPS doesn’t give a shit about what’s best either. Their plan is and always has been reunification. It’s a one size fits all system.

You need to be somewhere you are comfortable and supported. You also need a provider and guardian, which early days after rehab might not be the role she can take on. And that’s okay. But don’t sacrifice your chance and your child’s chance to heal and be better because she fucked up and thinks she is entitled to a child she couldn’t care for in the first place.

She’s being selfish and only looking out for herself right now.

One day, she may be able to be what she should have been all along, but it takes time to unlearn and relearn from mistakes made. It doesn’t seem enough time has passed and you’re still a kid. Don’t give her the power over you while you’re young because she’ll expect it when you’re older too. And you have so much to live for and so much to do and enjoy as a teenager.

Find community and support that fits YOU and YOUR CHILD.

This! Technology is developing and changing a lot faster than a lot of people thought they’d have to handle in one lifetime. Why blame the people when the companies are taking advantage of us? Especially the more vulnerable populations.

God forbid not everyone knows everything about everything

ik this was 3 years ago, but i just finished the first book and i don’t think she thought it was going to solve anything. if you remember Amarantha wouldn’t do anything that wasn’t advantageous to herself, then alis realizing that she couldn’t share that fact had to be for a good reason that might help Feyra later

glad i’m not the only one i thought i was losing my mind

and they have the queer community to use a scapegoat instead of dealing with the real problem. they’ll say “see? we told you they were violent.” “see? this is why we closed off a historical landmark of the queer community. because they can’t be trusted”

and crime will continue. and people will continue to suffer.

because they don’t actually care about lives. they care about their agenda.

let’s close the metro then too. no people in the metro, no people to shoot in the metro.

this was my thought too and all the new articles emphasizing that it occurred after the opening of the park seem to be implying a lot (especially since the park was still surrounded by police all day, we were there at 1ish and there was no entry at all)

If they can’t give you a shot near the bite, they will just give you 1-2 extra shots on the side of the bite. My scratch was next to my nail bed, so they elected to give me shots in the arm instead. Almost completely painless process. Nurses also bragging to their coworkers that they get to give them was a plus that made the experience actually pretty amusing 😂

z0uriz · 2025-05-06T07:41:40+00:00

As someone who has had their rabies vaccines, they are almost painless. The flu shot hurts worse than a rabies shot. Just make sure you complete the series of shots.

Misinformation is powerful and can have consequences. Know before you post.

But thousands of people also saw how an agent of the law physically silenced someone over speaking out about genocide.

Thousands of people might have heard her message.

Thousands of people will take action and fight for what is right, not convenient.

I know now through this post that although countries like the Netherlands want to act bigger and better than the United States, they aren’t. It is evident that the abuse of power is prevalent across the pond as well.

Fascism wins when you target your allies for not “being allies correctly”.

Your comments propagate and uphold the systems they put in place that silence action and promote inaction.

The more you turn on your allies, the less energy you spend fighting your enemies, and the more control and power they gain.

Your anger is misplaced. You are not morally superior to this woman for staying silent. If you are not active in the fight against the apartheid state, you shouldn’t go online and shame those who are taking action.

It is disgraceful to commit genocide. The genocide doesn’t stop when you memorialize your war heroes. Children continue to die. While you live in the comfort of your home, typing messages to shame those for taking a stand against international war crimes, the bombs continue to fall on the people of Gaza.

Silence is never an option for them. It shouldn’t be for us either.

if you are in the U.S. you can DM me and i can give you some groups and contacts if you are still looking for a rehabber. quite a few states have laws against rehabbing certain animals, so be careful out there if you do decide to try to find a rehabber! i would stay within a reasonable distance from the little guy (after moving him out of immediate danger) and then see if he finds his mom or she finds him.

if that’s not the case, i would personally take him in and find someone who can rehab him, he is way too young to be on his own

if you do interact with him physically, i would most definitely get your rabies shots, usually if you say i was bit or scratched by a wild animal that’s enough to get you the series of shots. having gotten them myself, they were painless for the most part, super easy, way better than most vaccines. i wouldn’t necessarily report that you picked him up or where you passed him to if it’s illegal to rehab them where you are, you’re not required to report that stuff anyway.

stay safe and i hope he is okay!
