    Yes, I agree. I am starting to believe more and more that big pharma stays with the plan that will benefit their pockets more.

    Pet Semetary by Stephen King. I try to save money by checking books out online from my local library on my kindle so don't have many pickings at times. I'm a big Stephen King fan so I figure I gotta read the ones I've missed.

    What about you?

    Rant time. I am 29, live in America, and have MS. The treatment I receive monthly through an IV is billed to my insurance for $18,000. Every month. I don't see a bill for the whole amount but by May of this year, I owe $5,000 so far. I now work two jobs to help pay for my medical bills.

    Leave it to American health insurance to make a disabled person have to work two jobs to stay afloat and to afford a medicine I can't go without.

    Good point about the scale. I feel like large toxic fanbases have always been in existence but the various social media platforms available now make it easier to find each other, if that makes sense.
