Or they technically offer it, but only when the government forces them to, and the deductible is so high it basically doesn't exist. So you get scheduled for 29 hours a week instead of 30 so they don't have to offer you the insurance with a $10k deductible.

Very true. It was telling some months ago when Trump’s current DOJ tried to clear his first DOJ of suspicion by release cell video of Epstein…with missing footage. The press in halcyon days would have been all over it. It’s maddening that the most stupidly corrupt administration gets a free pass.

I’m for open borders and community safety that does not focus on incarceration but rather on ending that slave system and reconstituting police and prosecutors. I’m for capitalism that’s regulated and for the wealthy to pay their fair share. You can be on the left without being anti capitalism.

Epstein is gone. No indictments will occur under Trump, only pardons. So yes, the Epstein files are a distraction. The oligarchy would prefer you think about that over AI, wages, healthcare, climate crisis etc. When people focus on such things, that threatens their control of you.

For example, it's notable that the monumental decision by Trump admin to delay cleanup of Forever Chemicals was mentioned a few times but not a major story meriting multiple articles/news cycles. It failed, in other words, to become a "moral panic" like shoplifting. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/23/c...

This is what happens when demand exceeds supply and you’ve cornered the market.

Or when your CEO boss really hates your gaming division.

I really don’t expect a perfect moderation team who’s decisions I always agree with- I do expect them to 1) not lie, 2) be transparent with the people who are impacted by their decisions and 3) do the things they said they were going to do

Fatma is friends with @redaqeshta.bsky.social whom I’ve shared before, has social media in Gaza that predates the war and sent me a photo holding her Palestinian ID.

Fatma also sent me documentation of the health conditions of her parents, in laws and grandfather which she really needs help with.
