I was partly inspired by an episode of the Twilight Zone i watched yesterday. No submarine, but multiple mysterious references to putting people "in the corn field" in a way which sounded permanent.

It's great how they never explain exactly what the cornfield thing means.

That last one sounds like a good book.

It’s worth noting that he spent the last year of his life fundraising for cancer treatment.

He auctioned off his Dawson’s Creek memorabilia.

Costars started doing cameos to raise money for his.

A serious diagnosis can financially destroy you in the US.

Universal healthcare now.

James Van Der Beek passed away at 48.

I feel like I lost a piece of my childhood.

Dawson’s Creek was one of the shows that inspired me to be a writer.

The ridiculously large vocabulary and verbose dialogue was captivating to me.

I lost my mom to cancer at the exact same age:

We are incredibly proud of the resistance for preserving and releasing this footage so the truth cannot be buried. Alex Pretti. A 37-year-old ICU nurse at the VA. Murdered by Trump’s regime. This is not okay. He spent his life helping people. He was an American hero.

Jessica Baker was raped by Jacob Hoggard. She got a conviction, he's currently in prison and she says if she had to do it again, she wouldn't. And if a friend was raped, she'd tell her not to report.

And this is a woman who by most definitions, "got justice."

The system does not serve us.
