TIL that the rich HOA next to Seattle Children’s Hospital somehow forces medevac flights to land a mile away and drive the rest of the way to the hospital. If a patient ever dies because of this, the HOA ghouls should be charged with and convicted for first degree murder. https://www.penny-arcade.com/news/post/2026/05/04/hurst-donut

  • I used to live near a Level 1 trauma center hospital and there were helicopter landings nightly, and it didn’t bother me at all because I had enough of a human soul and basic empathy to understand that the patient in the helicopter was having an infinitely worse time than I was.

    @yiningkarlli@mastodon.gamedev.place when does money turn people into monsters? How about some sociologist figures this one out and we limit the growth of fortunes to this amount or less?

    @yiningkarlli@mastodon.gamedev.place I don’t know if it’s the case but HOAs always felt (to me) like something white Americans invented as a method to exclude non-whites and others from their communities legally.

  • @yiningkarlli@mastodon.gamedev.place I live in a hospital medevac landing pattern and when I hear it a couple times a month I think about how lucky I am to not be the one being airlifted, and how bad of a day they are having. And not once has it occurred to me that there are people so self centered they would do something like this. Awful.
