Fortunately, PTSD is a condition whose treatment is covered under the essential health benefits that remain in place thanks to the progress of the Affordable Care Act.
House Speaker Mike Johnson says he still has “PTSD” from the GOP’s failed effort to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act during President Trump’s first term.
Now, the party is about to plunge back into the tricky policy debate that once cost them seats in the House.

The Epstein story gets a something that is tearing at the heart of the electorate: elite impunity. The idea that wealthy and powerful people can do terrible things *at scale* and face no consequences for them. Whatever political party actually stops it could rule the country for a generation.

This is a great thread. Us Xennials had to make our own fun and that included being primed with Apple2e gaming that led into Mac Classic use and then BBS moderation. I loved and still love being the curator of my own online experiences. I *hate* having things done for me on a visceral level.
basically believe that this mostly depends on when you got Properly Online - before a certain cut-off your normal internet experience was high agency/high effort, but it eventually became low agency/low effort, and it's impossible to create a social media experience that caters to both groups
yes I think @youngvulgarian.marieleconte.com has talked about this, it's deeply alienating to find out that the vast majority of people do not want the curated timeline / engagement / discussion version of social media that I find to be the only good version of the experience
