Your affection for your charge has rendered you incapable of clear and impartial judgement. You have a father’s love for the child, and that is useless to the cause.

Veronica Mars movie rewatch post-season binge. Brief thoughts:

the nostalgia cuts so deep it leaves a physical ache

warm hug of screen presence that is Keith Mars

THAT bag

fight scene at the reunion. Piz getting involved, then the punched snap, Dick's lil suit correct before leaping in, Wallace's "well hey why not", then final fist fan service

(Logan's continuing character growth does not resist his repose to throwing himself into a brawl lmao)

we used to be friends (full)

Clemmons!!

Veronica saving herself.

Martin Starr is simply fucking marvellous in everything he touches

Dax lmfaooo

The pirate pride I feel of being part of a fandom that broke literal records

the bridge/ride reminiscent of season scenes

free hugs + smirk (classic Logan facial expressions, thanks Jason)

Celeste Kane true to character

Weevil. Man. Ever wronged. Tf

SAX??

unrecognisable mars office. rip the windows

Why this for Wallace? The moral compass, clever, witty, intelligent, popular. So this..?

the continuing lack of on-screen chemistry between Piz & Veronica is made more apparent by the undeniable natural chemistry between her and Leo in the like, 4 minutes

the sensation of rewatching something so deeply dear to your heart from teenage years - only to find upon adult rewatch after rewatch that it is legitimately as clever and excellent as you remember it (& how wild what an enterprise this group of humans created without even knowing it at the time)

Spanning years and continents. Lives ruined, bloodshed. Epic.

John Oliver Buys $15M of Medical Debt for $60K and Forgives It All, Because He Could

Once again John Oliver proves that you can do anything with money and lawyers

Oliver then proceeded to detail how with $50 and knowledge of the law he was able to successfully apply online to create a debt buying company named “Central Asset Recovery Professionals,” or as Oliver put it, “CARP” named after “a bottom-feeding fish.”

After setting up a rudimentary website for CARP, the satirical, but still real company was offered a $15 million package of medical debt for $60,000.

Oliver explained that the debt was out of statute, which means it is the kind of debt that a collector can only continue to collect, but not sue the debtor for.

Then, instead of chasing down the 9,000 debtors in the debt package as a normal collection agency would, Oliver decided to stage the largest one-time giveaway in television history and work with the nonprofit RIP Medical Debt to forgive the $15 million with no consequences for the debtors.

[helloquirks]

Okay but now I know what I want to do of I get rich?

[beabaseball]

You dont have to be rich to do a bit of this actually

RIP Medical Debt is a charity (and therefore takes donations). They buy the rights to medical debt and then forgive them. So far they’ve forgiven over 1B in medical debt.

So a little ray of hope for someone out there today.

[shayvaalski]

Donating $10 buys $1,000 of medical debt. This is real, it works, and we’ve done it ourselves. You can too.

[yummy-tummy-time]

As of June 29, 2024, the charity is still active under a new name, Undue Medical Debt

[spiralarray]

Signal Boost!!!

[ffcrazy15]

If you’re Catholic this is a great thing to do for the Jubilee year by the way. Forgive debts and set captives free!

[bringmemyrocks]

Now renamed as Undue Medical Debt:

Undue Medical Debt Homepage

Undue Medical Debt makes it easy for donors to make an impactful difference in the lives of those struggling with medical debt.

[getvalentined]

I got a letter recently letting me know that a $3k medical bill from an emergency room visit in 2018 had been purchased by Undue Medical Debt and destroyed. Gone forever. They were very clear that I didn’t have to do anything, but they would appreciate it if I would talk to people about it to spread the word about what they were doing. Fucking phenomenal.

A few months ago (and rather more quietly) something similar happened on this side of The Pond.

Michael Sheen's extraordinary gesture as he pays off debts of hundreds of people

David Owens He plays an angel on screen and he has proven he is an angel in real life by undertaking an extraordinary gesture. In an unprece

Whether done with pizazz or done almost by stealth, what matters most is that things like this are done.

Da iawn, Michael. Rydych ddyn da.

(My apologies to any Welsh speakers / readers. I hope what I’m trying for comes through.)
