Original Title: Two years ago, FDA approved sale of over-the-counter birth control pill for first time in US without a prescription.

Morie Abibu, a 56-year-old father of three, lies on a hospital bed in the humid Sierra Leonean heat. He is paralyzed from the neck down. After months of immobility, his soft muscles sag and pool on the bed, barely hanging onto bone. A mass is growing at the base of his skull, pressing against his spinal cord. And as it grows, it obstructs the nerves that control his breathing. He is slowly suffocating to death.

Abibu needs neurosurgery to remove the deadly pressure.

"Without it, he will have a devastating end of life," says Dr. Marco Lee, past president of the Western Neurosurgical Society. "When your breathing starts to go, it's like this constant feeling of drowning."

Lol, saying you are "beginning a process designed to delete your data" is a very different thing to actually deleting your data.

Not sure if this counts as a shower thought, but as someone who is not on social media, I am oftentimes clueless as to why trending pages are trending on Wikipedia, and can only hope information on the page helps add context. Would be nice having context easily available for popular pages.

Edit: now I'm not sure if Trending Pages are a thing on Wikipedia or if this is an extra functionality offered by WikiReader, the Wikipedia app I use
