The following is not a solution to the issue addressed. It is a bandaid. However, it’s all I have right now. If you’re losing health insurance because the GOP are being dicks, and you have to go to the ER, ask the person getting signatures from you if the hospital has a financial aid program.

We’ve lived through this! The conservative democrats that the DNC browbeats everyone to elect immediately turn into proxy republicans and hold all progress hostage, and we get, at best, watered down compromise bills, and then we get mad and put the GOP back in power.

Unfortunately, and I say this as someone who always votes: I have absolutely no confidence that if democrats take over every branch of government with a majority we will get our healthcare back.
“If Jeanne Shaheen or Angus King, or ideally just Chuck Schumer, went to the mics and said: We have tried everything we can to make Republicans give you back your health care. They refuse to do so. The only way you’re going to get your health care back is to elect Democrats.”
Now that Dems have capitulated, at the very least they should now make every future extension of funding contingent on Trump following the law. Any lawbreaking must be met with: No more votes from us, period.

My exchange with @brianbeutler.bsky.social on that point:

So the Oslo University Hospital group that got caught doing illegal research on trans minors actually applied for an exemption to privacy regulations and got denied... THREE TIMES!

Then went ahead and tried to be sneaky about it anyway!
Vi har avdekket at forskerne fikk avslag på fritak fra taushetsplikten og fra å innhente samtykke til forskning fra pasientene - tre ganger.

De gjennomførte forskningsprosjektet likevel.

I don’t celebrate Veterans’ Day. I don’t celebrate Memorial Day. I hate being told “thank you for your service.” But I’ll be damned if I don’t put my flag down for the people whose country fucked them over making service one of the only options only to be betrayed by that very same country.
Many people were driven into military service because impoverished communities had so few choices for escaping a cycle of poverty, it was the only path by design. This Veteran's Day I think of them, and others who laid down their lives for a country betraying its own principles of "freedom."

Americans are truly insufferable. Just once I'd like one of those upset Democrats say "I feel like shit for trying to strong-arm people who had a problem with genocide into voting for spineless politicians". Instead they're out here pretending they're the first to discover these reps are scum.

Brianna was murdered outside school hours, her killers conspired to murder her outside school hours, even if this ridiculous notion that phones caused her death held even a little bit of truth this initiative still would've been useless in preventing this tragedy.

It’s not empathy if your primary goal is to put the least amount of effort into making someone behave in a way that makes you comfortable.

And permanently makes them honor you as a savior

So you can get wealthy enough to have what you don’t think they deserve

Esther Ghey's actions are the reason I just had a conversation with my siblings and fiancee, instructing them to ban my parents from any future funeral or memorial in my honour, along with anyone else using any kind of rationalisation to deadname me.
Brianna Ghey was not murdered for being Esther Ghey's daughter, and Esther locating the problem of her daughter being murdered by radicalised cis kids in her daughter being trans is a result of her class loyalty. She simply wants to prevent kids from being trans. She gets no more grace from me.

I would like it known that my parents don't know who I am. They never did. Not only because I'm trans. They never knew my little sister, either. They, too, talk like this.
She has a rationale for it as part of her book promo.

Bonus: she's friends with the mom of one the killers.

anyway if dems think I'm gonna forget this shit in 5 months, they're wrong. if they think I'm gonna forget it in 5 years, they're wrong. they have fully convinced me that purging the party of these inept losers in the senate is more important than retaking the senate in the next election cycle

don’t fucking gaslight me. i can see what is happening in front of my eyes and can use my cognition to connect the dots

the only reason democrats caved is because their travel was affected. you can tell because they picked the bare minimum and safest votes to reopen
instead of saying this was good strategy, maybe senate dems should say: "the republicans were going to kill people by starving them to death, and because we aren't monsters, we decided to let this fight go. We'll keep fighting. Stop electing monsters."

Rewatching Supernatural I have two thoughts:

1)Dean is a horrifyingly accurate snapshot of my headspace in my twenties: a supermassive black hole of self loathing and repression who can only live for others because he’s too scared of being himself.

2)Estrogen can save her.

For a two minute song, there’s actually a lot to analyze in both the lyrics, who is sing what lines and how, and what’s going on in the choreography of “Gravity.” And I’m so for it!

I have never heard of a restaurant that refused to serve chips (fries) with the dish it specifically calls "fish and chips." California Fish Grill customers are angry that its "fish and chips" is just a fish patty on salad greens--and it may be illegal. www.kiplinger.com/personal-fin...
Fish and Chips? More Like Fish and a Side of Customer Confusion and Anger
So you expect chips — French fries, actually — to come with your order of fish and chips? Think again. This restaurant could be serving a case of violating the truth-in-menu laws.
