🚨AMAZON DRIVER RUNS OVER FAMILY DOG AND LEAVES HER TO DIE
On April 21st at 4:56PM, an Amazon delivery driver in Benson, NC ignored clear instructions, entered a private driveway, and ran over Sadie, a beloved dog owned by Marshall and Valerie Chavis. The driver did not stop, did not check on her, and did not notify the family.
Within minutes, Sadie was rushed to the vet with catastrophic injuries, including severe brain trauma and fractures to her C1 and C2 vertebrae. She is alive, but barely, and now fighting for her life.
In Valerie’s words:
“Immediately upon impact Sadie ran to the front porch as a dog does when they have been hit. She was urinating uncontrollably, trying to stand and repeatedly falling over, her left eye bulging out of her head, both of her eyes bouncing back and forth rapidly, both pupils dilated, and visible bruising and abrasions on the left side of her body from impact. I immediately knew her injuries were severe.”
The Chavis family had done everything right. A clearly marked package drop box at the road. Posted signage. No Trespassing notices. Explicit delivery instructions. Carriers like FedEx and UPS follow these directions without issue. Amazon drivers have repeatedly ignored them.
Now, instead of taking responsibility, Amazon is refusing to step up. The company is demanding the family pay thousands of dollars out of pocket for emergency, life saving care, with only the possibility of partial reimbursement later.
This is negligence. This is unacceptable. And it cannot be ignored.
AMAZON NEEDS TO #SaveSadie.
Share this and demand that Amazon take responsibility and change its practices before another family suffers the same devastation. @amazon
Matt Brown GOES OFF on everyone blaming Tom Aspinall for not continuing after the poke:
“I’ve really been disgusted with that narrative that you’re talking about where everybody’s blaming Tom Aspinall.”
“Where did this come from? How did he do anything wrong? People saying ‘oh should have just sucked it up with one eye.’ Get the f*ck out of here. What are you talking about? We’re not in a death match. This isn’t f*cking Street Fighter. It’s not a video game. This is a professional competition. He wants to win and give himself the best chance of winning.”

Being mad at The Witcher 4 starring Ciri as a Witcher has got to be the funniest way of exposing that you never played these games.
The most common and popular ending of Witchet 3 is Geralt retiring and Ciri becoming a Witcher, she’s even using this sword in the trailer!
Max Holloway spoke out against gun violence on a local news station 👏
"Put the guns down boys. If you guys got a problem, do it the old school way. Go to the boxing gym, put on some gloves and punch each other...
Play video games or something. Why shoot somebody, go play Apex or Call of Duty."

So many of you clearly need more purpose in your life. This obsession with political “leaders” is so cringe they could give a fuck less about you while you worship them. Both sides… Get in to fitness or music or something you dorks
$70k/yr is considered low-income.
$20/hr is only $41,600/yr if you work full-time and never take time off.
$20/hr only sounds high because we’ve been told over and over it’s too high by the same businesses making record profits.
The 6 year old boy who remained under the rubble all night has made it safely smiling. I see no one sharing. If he were dead, everyone would share! Share positivity...
For anyone still “standing with Israel” or trying to inject false nuance into the Israeli genocide of Palestine, this thread is for you. These are the things you won’t be shown on the western news. Look at them now. It’s not too late to adjust your perspective.
