Where TF to start on Ramaswamy's 'founding fathers' quote? 1. The term 'founding fathers' is a Republican fetishization. 2. They are *not* gods. 3. We don't owe them a fucking thing. 4. You presume heaven is a real. 5. If it's real, you don't know it's like. 6. Dude, you're going to Hell. ...

An 8-year-old girl and her mom were driving when they witnessed bikers crash. The mom, a nurse, rushed to help treat the injured. A year later, the girl set up a lemonade stand. This was the bikers' way of saying thank you. Original post

The fact that Amy Acton was removed from her mother’s care and went on to obtain an MD and flourish in public health makes her even more of a hero in my eyes. This type of trauma never really goes away. Yet when there was a fork in the road, she chose the one where she helps others. Hero.
