I wrote a very short piece about my love for the 1980s TV show Perfect Strangers for @hilobrow, a site I ❤️and occasionally write for. I am biased but obviously this piece is exceptional www.hilobrow.com/2025/02/24/m...

Brian Thompson is a mass murderer. Full stop. He is responsible for the deaths of tens of thousands of people, and that's probably a conservative estimate. He can rest in piss and rot in hell.

I despise America's for-profit healthcare system. I despise the insurance companies that make a killing off of it, metaphorically and literally. I despise all of the health insurance execs who leech off the misfortune of others. 5/

Even after all that arguing, the insurance company still refused to pay the anesthesiologist's full fee. The anesthesiologist waived the remainder of it.

We were lucky. Many people are not.

Instead of fully recuperating, my mom spent countless hours stressing over these massive bills. Insurance co. eventually paid assistant surgeon's fee after he sent the insurance company a letter explaining that this surgery required an assistant surgeon, either by hospital policy or by CA law. 3/

After the surgery, my mom spent hours on the phone arguing with the insurance company because 1. they refused to pay for the assistant surgeon's fee, claiming he was unnecessary for the surgery and 2. they refused to pay the anesthesiologist's full fee because they claimed it was too much. 2/

Wanna know why IDGAF about the killing of Brian Thompson? Here's what radicalized me. When I was 15/16, my mom had cancer. She had to have her kidney removed. It was a complicated operation that took 4-6 hours, if I recall correctly. 1/🧵
