WHAT I REMEMBER OF THE CRASH
There are three of us, barreling toward the shore in a turquoise sedan. I am almost four, babbling, squirming in and out of my scrawny fifteen-year-old brother’s grip in the passenger seat. Cigarette perched, my father mans the wheel; he hums as his eyes survey the two-lane highway, an unremarkable stretch that promises the ocean.

I don’t see the truck. I don’t see its front driver’s side wheel explode. I don’t see the vehicle veer onto our lane.

My father slams the brakes. The cigarette drops to his lap. Yanked by my brother tight to his chest, he positions his hands over my face.

We collide. The windshield explodes. There is screaming, a burning smell, until, finally, we stop moving.

I am shaken, confused, and covered with blood; my brother’s lacerated forehead, cheeks, and fingers weep upon my blonde hair and striped top.

Fast forward to the hospital: I watch my father gather himself beside the snack machine. When a nurse arrives with an update on my brother, I sneak away and wander up an empty corridor. I pass a corner and keep exploring, peeking into rooms, touching the gurneys and wheelchairs.

I feel a hand on my shoulder. I turn to face a fresh-faced nurse, kneeling with a smile. For the first time that day, I cry.

"You are lost and need to go back," she says, gently taking me by the hand.

More than a Million Pro-Repeal Net Neutrality Comments were Likely Faked

Someone really needs to find out who is behind all the fake comments and expose (and if possible prosecute) them.

I expect all of the pro-repeal comments were faked. What ordinary person would feel strongly enough against net neutrality to bother registering a comment?

I have a friend who decided to write one of his papers for an english class on thus issue. He did a ton of research and said that their were multiple times when he though maybe I was on the wrong side of this. Until he had vetted and realized how that big mug having creep minced words his arguments were very compelling.

Interesting. No, I haven't been to the US in a very long time but the US tech/news sites I follow have never hinted that there was broad popular support for either Ajit Pai or Comcast's view on net neutrality.

I didn't expect a majority to be fervent supporters of net neutrality either, I just imagined that people would fall into just two categories: "progressive activist" and "wholly uninterested".

I think that yoy are right for the most part but there are always outliers and with how well Pai spins things I could understand some strong supporters.
