I would like very much to see more people posting videos saying what they want to express instead of always prose. I know we are all smart and can read but without that interactive piece this platform is very dry.

NEVER FORGET in the 90s Hollywood wanted to cast Julia Roberts as Harriet Tubman

When they brought up the fact that Harriet was black they said.. AND I QUOTE:

“It was so long ago. No one is going to know the difference.’”

Congress has the power to block Trump from taking office, but lawmakers must act now. They aren't going to act if you don't make them.

Democrats need to take a stand against Electoral College votes for a person disqualified by the Constitution.

⚠️TRIGGER WARNING⚠️

Wait wait wait….

UnitedHealthcare did what now?!?!?🧐😳

Trigger warning!

I was drugged and raped in my home by an acquaintance. I drove myself to the ER at 9pm the following day, after debating for hours. I walked up to the desk, said my name, and told the nurse that I needed a rape kit. I had my sheets, the clothes I had been wearing, and other potential evidence in a paper bag. The woman asked me if l'd prefer she register me as a Jane Doe, "for privacy". I said absolutely not. I was still under my father's health insurance policy, with, guess who? Ding ding, UHC.

It took 7 hours before I was discharged. I was alone. I was already so traumatized, that those 7 hours don't feel particularly traumatic in comparison, but I assure you- it was every bit as bad as it looks on SVU. That's not the point.
The point, is that two weeks later I received a bill in the mail. Paraphrased, it read:

"SEXUAL ASSUALT EXAM- $1200.
INSURANCE COVERAGE- DENIED.
AMOUNT DUE- $1200"

And then another, in two more weeks. And then another. And then they added red font.

i am convinced that these people are death worshippers who want to spread as much disease and sickness as possible (i also think this is all tied up in eugenic beliefs about the “survival of the fittest” www.nytimes.com/2024/12/13/h...
