I can't say that I am a fan of shopping for health care plans when its very hard to determine what the acutal trade offs between plans are. If one looks around, it seems like you have to already be in a plan to find out what your benefits are.

if the Democrats are willing to accept this deal, in particular, i don't think a single Senator should make it through their primary. this just makes health inequity worse and lets Trump send out checks with his name on them!
"A development that appeared to break the logjam: Republicans proposed that healthcare funding be provided directly to households rather than used to pay for a 1-year extension of ACA subsidies. That involves sending federal money into FSAs instead of insurance companies" www.wsj.com/politics/pol...
Republicans Pitch Alternative to ACA Extension to End Government Shutdown
A proposal by GOP senators to send money directly to consumers’ health accounts rather than to insurance companies showed signs of breaking a stalemate on negotiations.

1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

These people were given a profound amount of grace after J6 and they responded by spitting in our faces.

So yeah, we fucking hate these people.

Mamdani was in the Twin Towers making terrorist babies and I saw one and the baby looked at me.

just want to reiterate that the first amendment isn't something you "hide behind," it's something that constrains the government's ability to limit your inalienable rights. that distinction is very important

@secretaboutbox.bsky.social is there an option in the bsky app to prevent posting without alt text by accident? I forget to add alt text sometimes and there's no way to attach it to the post after the fact.

There is likely an extended metaphor between SDK migrations and transitioning that I will take a stab at someday.

At the moment I'm feeling the "Oh shit; we forgot we need to handle *that* interface" part of the migration.

Curtis Sliwa is a crazy reactionary but at least he believes in multi-ethnic, multi-racial democracy, and I wouldn't want on my record that I didn't congratulate the first Muslim mayor of NYC but fucking Curtis Sliwa did
Zohran Mamdani says on NY1 he didn't get a congratulatory call from either Andrew Cuomo or Eric Adams last night.

He says he got a congratulatory call from Curtis Sliwa, though.
