  • Two years ago I slipped on the ice and shattered my right leg. This was in one of Canada’s biggest cities

    It was almost eight hours before I was even seen at the hospital. After tests confirmed I had destroyed the ankle, I was very luckily placed for emergency surgery the next morning - at this point about 13-14 hours away

    The hospital refused to let me stay anywhere. I was discharged and sent home to wait a handful of hours in immense pain before the surgery. When I say discharged however, I mean a nurse asked for my height, grabbed crutches that kinda fit (I learned later that the reason I struggled for two months with them was they were far too tall for me) and leaned them in a far corner out of reach then disappeared. I waited for almost 45 minutes before using my boot to hook the wheelchair nearby, drag it over, and drag myself to the crutches. The doctor’s suggestion, when I pointed out I had no easy way of getting home, was to take public transport

    In February. On an icy day I’d already broken a leg, with an exposed right foot and crutches too tall to get around on. I’d been able to scare up a ride, but I’ve never felt so fucking shocked at the state of our healthcare before



  • distract Americans from an invasion of Taiwan

    Americans are so fucking bloodthirsty and liberals so fucking obsessed about their small bean uwu island Taiwan that the entire US could literally be crumbling into an abyss piece by piece while every human vanishes into the voids left behind, and they would be glued to their television watching breathless 24/7 MSNBC coverage of the war interspersed with racist Jon Oliver segments, their lips dripping in saliva at the thought of seeing the Three Gorges Dam collapse and millions of civilians perish
