The Surgeon Who Removed A Liver
A doctor in Florida is being sued after a man who had been experiencing pain needed a splenectomy, but the guy suddenly died. Well, in the autopsy, it turned out the spleen was still in there with a cyst on it, and his liver was missing.
This wasn't the doctor's first time doing this - an issue last year came up when he was supposed to remove an adrenal gland off a kidney, and removed part of a pancreas.
Nub City
In the 50s and 60s, two-thirds of the country's insurance payouts for accidental limb loss were filed in Vernon, FL. A bunch of people would dismember themselves for a payout. One guy had insurance from 28 companies, and shot off his own foot for a combined $1M payout.
Errol Morris made a documentary about the town in the 80s, the entirety of which you can watch here on YouTube.

Dwyer's Basement Flood Is Uncovering Some Cool Stuff

A New Documentary Series
If you're a true-crime person, there's a new documentary series on Netflix you need to see about multiple stories relating to bad ex-boyfriends, called Worst Ex Ever.
Brian May Had A Stroke
Brian may took to Instagram to reveal that he had a small stroke the other day, losing use of his left arm out of the blue.
“I say this because it was in some doubt because that little health hiccup that I mentioned happened about a week ago and what they called it was a minor stroke. It was a little scary, I have to say.”
He doesn't want any sympathy though. “Please don’t do that because it’ll clutter up my inbox and I hate that,” he quipped. “The good news is I’m okay. Just doing what I’m told, which is basically nothing. I’m grounded.”
