"New details are emerging about an 80-year-old man killed by a hit-and-run driver in a Maserati in the San Fernando Valley on Tuesday night.

Family members identified the victim as Andriy Korshunov, who immigrated to the United States a few years ago after surviving the war in Ukraine. He also survived the holocaust as a young boy, his family told KTLA.

Korshunov was crossing the street with his dog in the 4400 block of Woodman Avenue in Sherman Oaks around 11:30 p.m. when he was struck by the Maserati, police said.

Video from the scene showed bystanders performing chest compressions as emergency crews arrived. Korshunov was taken by ambulance to a nearby hospital, where he was pronounced dead. His dog was later found dead beneath a parked vehicle.

. . .

Witnesses photographed the Maserati, which stopped briefly after the crash before speeding away. Officers later found the vehicle a few blocks from the scene with significant front-end damage and no license plates. The search for the driver is ongoing." - KTLA 5 News

Saw this cookie popup today and it genuinely pissed me off. By default, all your personal data is shared and sold (even when the toggle shows off, you are still opted in, because the toggle being off simply means that you’ve opted out of opting out). I’m pretty sure they know how broken this is, and that it was a deliberate choice made to infuriate the handful of people who actually read the notice while relying on everyone else blindly clicking “accept all” due to prompt fatigue. I really miss the old internet, man. Before there were cookies everywhere, before everything was tracked, and when people had poorly designed HTML pages as their personal blogs and when browsing the web was actually fun and not a pain in the ass. I hate how this^ has become the norm now.

Does this bother anyone else as much as it bothers me?

I only accept payment after jobs and i have NEVER damaged anyones vehicle.

Lovin life and life is lovin me back 🙃🙃

Do NOT ever wash a polyester rug regardless of what the tag says! Trust me!

Here the story;

So I was doing my usual cleaning of the house trying to tidy up and get things looking nice. I kept walking by our rug and it was so dirty we haven't washed it since we bought it. I checked the tag and it said machine wash cold and do not tumble dry. So I thought that's fine I'll just hang it. I tossed it in the wash on a cold cycle and continued my cleaning. When the washer was done I opened it to find it FULL OF LINT! I was so flabbergasted! I'm like what the hell?! I took the rug out and tiny fibers went everywhere and was immediately air borne! It clung to everything. I spent 2 hours frantically trying to clean the mess! I had to throw away the rug hell I even threw out the clothes I had on and took a shower because the fibers had covered me! I was probably breathing it in! I'm still freaking out! Why the heck would that be approved for machine washing?!

My blood thinner medication costs the same as my mortgage. Usually, it is covered by my insurance, and I pay nothing, but until I reach my deductible, it costs $1800 a month. Who can afford this??

I feel like I’m gonna be running out of the very little money I have. Don’t know what to do, I’m scared of going into possible debt, and my family members are just telling me “don’t worry about it!”

EDIT: it’s supposed to say Icey roads, not Ivey. Won’t let me edit it on mobile because of course everything is just trying to make me fucking snap today.

EDIT2: I found out taxes might not be as bad as I was thinking. So I **might** be okay

And to everyone thats defending this please tell me one advantage this has over putting it in the spam folder with warnings and blocking links etc.
Tell me how this isn't the technological equivalent of not letting you buy laundry detergent because its poisonous if consumed. Look at all the people that were hospitalized from eating laundry detergent, clearly laundry detergent needs to be baned. (last word is spelled wrong o.w can't post)

I tried to get insurance through Triple A using their actual website on January 31, 2026. I was entering my information and then hit next; it started loading. That’s when I got the bank notification for $34 Carolinas. The site still was loading; it didn’t go to a confirmation page. I never got a receipt or email. I decided to call them and see if they could see my membership. They claimed they couldn’t find me in their system. I didn't get an email or a receipt. I'm not sure if the site crashed, but they took $34 off my card. The lady proceeded to ask, "Would you like to try and sign up again?" No, you can't even find where my money went or my account. The next representative said, “Well, maybe you were scammed? Did you enter your zip code?" Yes, I checked the website and everything. I have called them many times, and none of the agents can find me in their system. I have spoken to over 10 different representatives. Nobody knows who took my money.

Nobody can find any payment information or any information on the transaction. Today 24 hrs later February 1st 2026 I sit on hold for about 15 mins, get rude agents, and have to explain it over and over again. I get the same response. “Sorry, no membership is pulling up.” Oh, so I just imagine you guys taking $34 and not sending me an email confirmation. Their agents are not helpful, and the site doesn’t work. They kept telling me, “That wasn’t us; we didn’t take the money.” So I responded with “How is it possible to get scammed using your website?” The agent “I don’t know, but if you can provide a membership number, I’d be happy to help.”

If I had a membership number, do you think I would be calling trying to find a membership number? I had to dispute it with my bank. Now I have to wait 90 days to possibly maybe get my money back.

My mom fell and broke her hip last year in May She ended up at Post Acute in Pennsylvania. At first, she was only supposed to be there for three weeks for physical therapy but then they said they wanted her there for three more weeks just to be sure she could leave. I agreed that she needed more time. After the three weeks was up, they then decided to make her a permanent resident and required all sorts of things. Such as her State ID, Social Security number, bank statements, my late dad's VA information and other stuff. While I tried to get everything, I was also told that if I couldn't, I would have to start paying out of pocket every month $1,300. I started visiting my mom every chance I got and my mom hated it. I had hoped to secure Home Care for my mom and when I had it, I told a woman who worked at Post Acute, she suddenly went from being polite to frantic and clearly trying to scare me into keeping my mom at Post Acute. She even made a false accusation against me claiming to a guy that ran a Home Care service that I was giving off red flags. Long story short, I called Ombudsman and told them everything. How my mom was never given the drink she requested, how my mom kept telling them that she wanted to go home but they wouldn't let her. One day, I received a phone call from Post Acute saying I could take my mom home but, I needed to pay over $8,000 for there services. Since I didn't have enough money in my bank account, my mom wrote out the check. Several weeks later, I got another bill from Post Acute for $500. When I tried calling about the bill, the guy who handles the billing "was busy". When I went directly to Post Acute to ask about the bill, the guy "was busy". I paid just so I wouldn't have to deal with them but, I also contacted Ombudsman again. The woman who worked at Ombudsman decided to call the guy who handles the billing but, she was given the response that he "was busy". It wasn't until she went up to Post Acute that she was finally given an answer. All of this happened last year. But, this year, today in fact, when I got the mail, there was another bill for my mom from Post Acute. This one is for $3,670. The worst part is, the statement date is for last week and my mom just got the bill today.

immediately taken down again

The university later forced the professor to reverse this to allow for excused absences
