This has gotta be satire, right?

I mean it's very clearly a joke

I think, but I am not certain.

As someone who tried to ignore a ruptured appendix, this definitely didn't happen. I couldn't stand upright, I whimpered in my sleep, I couldn't eat. By the time I finally went to the ER, they kept me on an overnight hold with an IV of antibiotics. They couldn't attempt removal at the time because the swelling was so bad, so I took antibiotics for a month before things were settled enough to remove. The antibiotics gave me the superpower of being able to smell the awful and unique details of everyone's breath. Oh and the pain waking up from surgery was awful (searing hot pain at incision points, extreme discomfort while my body absorbed/processed out the gas they inflated my abdomen with) and they gave me the tiniest crumb of fentanyl and things were all better for about 30 minutes. After that, they literally told me to walk it off cuz they needed the bed for the next patient. All this cost me $10k out of pocket, AND I HAD INSURANCE.

Thanks for coming to my Ted talk. Fuck a lot of things about America, but especially fuck its health care system

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
