Checked my NC voter registration. 0 results It has only been one week since I re-registered to vote. I’ll keep checking my status but so far….0 results. There have been no changes that could cause my voter registration to be affected in the first place. Never missed an opportunity to vote 🤷🏻‍♀️

An Israeli journalist asked people on the street in Ireland their views on Israel before the Ireland–Israel national team match. The replies he got: “Free palestine” “F*ck Israel” “F*ck off.” “Free Palestine, you prick. You Genocidal f*cking maniacs”

The breast cancer center appealed thousands of Blue Cross reimbursements for being too low. At trial, the insurer revealed that it had never considered any of the appeals — and that they were pointless: “An appeal is not available to review an underpayment.” (Published April 2025)
