This morning.

Reddit has restored its WallStreetBets subreddit page after removing the community for “racism” and “hate speech”.

Rookie stock market investors on the platform joined together to purchase stock in targeted companies causing a major disruption in the stock market and resulting in several hedge funds to go bust.

GameStop stock rose 1,600 percent in January alone.

How unsettling?

I basically killed my father. or at least intentionally  allowed him to die.

He was an abusive father all my life, and when I was 19, he had a heart attack. I calmly took the phone away from him before he could dial 911, put the recliner he was sitting in up so he would be laying back and his weight would make it harder to breathe, took one last look right at him, then left the room.

About an hour or so later I found him sitting there staring forward with foam in his mouth, not breathing.

I should clarify that I had been working at a hospital for at least 4 years at that point (volunteer work) and I was first aid certified. I knew exactly what was happening, and what I was doing.

 

Right.
