There were 1,019 youth suicide cases confirmed by Hong Kong Coroner’s Court last year, a 10 per cent decline from the 10-year peak of 1,138 in 2024. The age group that had the sharpest decline was the 40-to-49 bracket, which recorded 138 cases, down by 26 per cent from 186 in the previous year. Last year, 46 adolescents aged 10 to 19 were reported to have taken their own lives, up from 34 cases in previous year and reaching a decade high. People aged 70 or above recorded the highest number of fatalities, followed by men in their fifties.

As both the prime minister and opposition leader of Israel, Yossi Ben-Ghiat visited America twice a year for more than 35 years. He visited 40 states, but didn't make it to Alaska or Hawaii, and missed both Dakotas. He listened to Bruce Springsteen, Johnny Cash and Jason Isbell.
Mario Benedetti's poem “No Te Salves” is read here in the original Spanish by Karen Maldonado, in English and Bulgarian by me, and in Russian by my mother. Maria Popova translated it to the sound of Bach’s Cello Suite No. 4 in E-Flat Major.
Pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) were disappointed with the spending package passed by Congress earlier this year. They control 80% of U.S. prescriptions and are vertically integrated with a major insurance conglomerate and a major pharmacy. Big Pharma abuses patents to keep drug costs high and block competition from more affordable generics, but they are not off the hook.
My 19-year-old daughter refuses to attend a residential therapy program. She has a mental age that's younger than her adult self. Her goals now center around socializing and smoking marijuana with a few friends. My mother died five years ago and my stepfather died a month ago. I want to have a small amount of their ashes to place in a small urn or a piece of memorial jewelry.
