Never, in the long storied history of US college aged youth driven protests, has the "order must prevail" shtick actually worked for whatever political side was offering it up.

The good thing about being a millennial generation young woman is how my parents really pushed the "independence/self-reliance is freedom" shtick because I now get to teach my partner all the good life skills from unclogging a sink to fixing a hem.

Cigna tracks every minute that its staff doctors spend deciding whether to pay for health care.

Imagine having a stroke and wanting to go home but your insurance company is saying you don't need to walk safely, learn how to dress yourself, and swallow without aspirating..and there is nothing your rehab team can do about it.
This week has not been great.

The most exhausting part of working in healthcare isn’t the patients. It’s far from the patients. It’s that best practice and staff are no longer up to the people practicing medicine and nursing. Instead we’ve left it to religious zealots and judges and extremist lawmakers and moneymakers

We were talking about this at work today. The news keeps talking about "unrest", "violence", and "saftey" but all the video is a bunch of people in tents, sitting while holding hands, or standing around chanting loudly. Their definition of unrest is wholly different from my own.

I need a native northern Californian to tell me if they really don't teach y'all how to zipper merge.
