Reuters reported on Friday that a suicide prevention hotline number had been removed from Twitter for a few days.

The hotline was part of the #ThereIsHelp pop-up banner that was displayed when certain topics were searched. Along with the suicide prevention hotline, the feature also included safety resources for mental and physical health issues, natural disasters, violence, and COVID-19, among others.

On Saturday, Twitter owner Elon Musk took to his platform to negate the Reuters report, calling it "fake news."

He tweeted:

"1. The message is actually still up. This is fake news."
"2. Twitter doesn't prevent suicide."

He later replied to Reuters Tech News:

"False, it is still there."

However, Twitter's head of trust and safety Ella Irwin confirmed to Reuters:

"We have been fixing and revamping our prompts."
"They were just temporarily removed while we do that."

She assured:

"We expect to have them back up next week."

Disagreeing with Musk, Irwin also stated:

"We know [the resources] are useful."

The disappearance of the hotline sparked outrage against many users.








On Saturday, Twitter Inc restored the feature, which has been renamed "Help is Available."

The banner now pops up in many countries when key words connected to self-harm, suicide, and domestic violence are searched.

If you or someone you know is struggling, you can contact the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 988.To find help outside the United States, the International Association for Suicide Prevention has resources available at https://www.iasp.info/resources/Crisis_Centres/

Anti-Trump Stickers Keep Getting Spotted On Gas Pumps—And They're Absolutely Brutal

MAGA Republican President Donald Trump's decision to join Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in attacking the country of Iran directly caused gas prices in the United States to soar and even Trump's MAGA minions aren't happy about it.

Many who are turning their back on Trump have cited the POTUS's negative impact on their cost of living and the influence Netanyahu, himself under investigation by his own country for corruption, has over the Trump administration.

Cloud, who boasts nearly 58,000 followers on Instagram, said he actually used to go "door-to-door" stumping for "one of [President Donald] Trump's closest friends in Congress, adding that he "used to say, 'I think, therefore I am conservative.'"

Trump's AG Sets Off A Firestorm With Claim That Americans 'Want Their Tax Dollars Spent On' Trump's $1.8 Billion Slush Fund

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche is facing heavy criticism after claiming that Americans "want their tax dollars spent on things like" President Trump's $1.8 billion slush fund that may go to his allies and those who participated in the January 6 insurrection.

The Justice Department said last week it was creating the fund as part of a deal in which Trump agreed to drop his $10 billion lawsuit against the IRS. But despite a press release, memo, and a newly-released settlement agreement, many details about the program remain unclear.

Getting a new pet is a big commitment, and when you decide to take the plunge, you should commit to keeping them for their full lifetime.

But if you're going to get an animal that you have no prior experience with, you also have to commit to doing your research so you can care for them properly. While getting advice from a fellow pet owner is helpful, it's always good to double-check their facts.
