We were screamed at and cursed as" agents of the government that's spreading lies and killing people on purpose" as we worked mandatory overtime trying everything to save them.

Right? Wtf happened that we all became the bad guys? We had a room where healthcare workers could go to and cry or unwind. They really need to offer free grief counseling for everyone who worked through COVID, especially the beginning of it. I worked in the ICU, we couldn't understand why we were getting so many patients with pneumonia. We got them through it only to find every other organ system was failing too. I've been a nurse for 16 years, I've never seen so many people die so fast. Still can't talk about my last covid patient death without tearing up. COVID crushed all of us, and while we're trying to save them, we're being attacked.

I think that the hype around the submersible was so widespread because of the sheer, mind-blowing absurdity of it. Every piece of that event was so insanely bizarre, and it only became stranger and stranger. I don't think it was so much about people caring about it so much as it was about them being curious about it. I mean, it was such a unique situation; so unique that it was almost unbelievable.

I never stepped foot in school grounds since. 😢

[@brianorozco1074]

I was in my early college years when the pandemic started. During a speech course I had, I think my professor said something about us doing different lessons if the pandemic started soon. The very next day after that, the campus was closed and all classes were canceled.

The Titan submersible deserved an honorable mention at best, but not to be actually on the list. The Indian Ocean tsunami affected people all over the world because of the numbers of people who were from those countries living elsewhere with family and friends still in the areas affected. My son’s daycare provider and her husband were from Sri Lanka. He, along with other members of their community, set out to raise money for their countrymen who lost everything. We have a pretty large Indian and Sri Lankan community where I live and they turned out in a big way to help. If I remember correctly, they raised a couple hundred thousand dollars pretty quickly. Anoma’s husband was recognized for his leadership in their efforts, not only here, but also in Sri Lanka. Their fundraising helped rebuild several towns and helped fishermen replace their destroyed fishing vessels.

It was genuinely shocking coverage.

COVID-19 happened and had millions die to the pandemic but most ppl started working from home due to the lockdowns and spent more time with their family and friends, and for a whole year we didn't pollute the world with our factories, ect. You know, something positive to say because everything as is it's just too shocking and painful to remember and watch. 😭

[@Inge.Borthne]

I remember the 9/11 attack as a crazy thing on the news. I was at work during the time I heard about it on radio in Norway, and I was quite shocked to be honest. When it comes to the 2004 earthquake and tsunami in Asia, I was half asleep when my dad rushed down the stairs to where my bedroom was, and said that there had been some catastrophic event in Asia somwhere. I had to watch it on the news, and later I realised that what I saw was something that no one had predicted before. I don't think I even had read it online before it had happened that day,and now when I see a documentary about it, it still feels just like the first time I saw the news flash. Just crazy.

[@joshuamaxam5086]

They put Jan 6th on the list but there was only 1 murder that day and it was a 12 year veteran being shot by capitol police. They want to claim 5 died so they use the terms "as a result" and "in connection to" so they claim deaths that occurred up to 36 hours later regardless of the cause of death being natural causes and drug overdose. Ignoring the calls for security (by the chief of capitol police himself) and police that moved aside barricades and unlocked doors while informants in the crowd (that go unpunished to this day) orchestrated everything. But sure put it above terrorist bombings, Deepwater Horizon oil spill, Beirut explosion and las Vegas shooting that killed countless people...
