I don't know who needs to know this, but Pro Publica has an online thing that will format a letter to your US health insurance company to demand the records behind a claim denial. (which the insurance is then legally required to provide in most cases)

Tip of the day in times of bad craziness: don't be overwhelmed at the onslaught of dreadful news; because you can never surmount it intellectually. Focus, instead, on one good thing you can do for yourself, just for today, and then come up with another idea you can give to others. 🇺🇸

Widespread destruction from the L.A. fires was inevitable, given the drought and winds. Still, the region could have been better prepared.

Word of the Day is ‘uhtcearu’ [ucht-kay-aru, with the 'ch' as in the Scottish ‘loch']:

Old English for ‘the sorrow before dawn', when you lie awake in the darkness and worries crowd your mind.

I lived in LA for the fires in '93 & the quake in '94. This is as big as the quake in 1994 that leveled San Francisco into dust. Don't shrug, but realize the scope: this is The Big One, except it came shrouded in smoke and wind, not from the ground. 🔥

Meanwhile, back in the year 1956, Biden is still posting smiley, shiny rah-rah postcards from the Before Times, as if he'd lost to a regular opponent. It's maddening to watch.

For Canadians, once you're in the hospital, the province takes care of the bill.

No one in Canada has ever declared bankruptcy because of hospital bills.

America is, in fact, alone in this regard.
