Yes, insurance covers cancer. Insurance also has deductibles, coinsurance, out-of-pocket maximums, networks, denied claims, uncovered services, travel costs and—here’s the tricky bit—parents who may have to stop working while caring for a critically ill child.

But please, explain to financially devastated families that they’re economically impossible. I’m sure they’ll be relieved to discover they’ve merely violated the laws of Imgur Economics.

“There’s no world where this happens” is an impressively fucking confident way to announce you’ve never looked into whether it happens.

The point isn’t that this family chose the wrong financial strategy. The point is that a family with insurance should never have to choose between draining their retirement, refinancing their home, or declaring bankruptcy because their kid got sick.

If “just declare bankruptcy” is considered a reasonable feature of your healthcare system, congratulations—you’ve accidentally made the argument against the system better than I did.

Ah yes, the comforting “your child has cancer, but have you considered bankruptcy?” solution.

You’ve managed to identify the problem while somehow presenting one of its most horrifying consequences as the workaround.

“FUCK AI AND YOUR USE OF IT” — posted from a device built by algorithms, routed through algorithms, on a platform run by algorithms. 😂 But sure, my meme is where civilization crossed the fucking line. 🤡

"Be better” from the guy who showed up 24 hours later to referee a meme thread is fucking adorable. 😂 I’ll alert the Internet Standards Committee immediately.

The question is whether you're going to be better than the average person because you use AI, or replaced by the average person using AI.

The genie escaped. Complaining about the bottle won't put it back.

I don't celebrate anyone losing work. But history has never once reversed a technological revolution because it was unfair.

The question isn't whether AI should exist. It does.

His sentence was less than 2 years so he was in provincial- still might have been a rough bit given the nature of his charges.

Mentally, he'll never be the same.
