The tragic consequences of PA's failed mental health system
One family's story reveals the human cost of hospital closures, funding cuts, and the resulting failures in Pennsylvania's mental health care system.

This is Sue’s story. But it could be the story of any of the roughly half a dozen families I spoke to for this investigation.

Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

I do love when people write books and blogs and you find out just how much of their semi-literate published work was just editing

not to be the most annoying person alive, but i feel like it's my duty as the only member of my family who is not a nurse to say: you don't have a "v-fib flare-up"

Ohio's largest youth treatment center, a 110-bed facility on the edge of a state forest, has become a locus of chaos over the past year. Kids are hurt and cause hurt. Staff are told not to call 911. Community members are confused and concerned. Stunning work from @brittanyhailer.bsky.social.

This question is inspired by a discussion about the DJ selections at homecoming events: what song is the most uniquely recognizable to people who were in college when you were?

Hi, I'm the ProPublica reporter who's been tracking an unusual stat: U.S. citizens grabbed by immigration agents.
I did it because the government isn’t.
This is what I found.

im not sure why nyt sharing HBH content is somehow going to be the thing that breaks me but
Tieghan Gerard, who runs the wildly popular Half Baked Harvest blog, posts a new recipe nearly every day, all year round, but her favorite season is (of course) fall. Even if you don’t identify with the Pumpkin Spice Latte set, this is a delicious snack cake. nyti.ms/42HDClj
