Some of you know I've spent time as a video game journalist. In that context I've come across Karl Jobst before. He's someone whose work I respect.

His lengthy exposé on Musk being a video game cheater is excellent.

It also tells you exactly who Musk is. youtu.be/z1ykCc588Zw?...

Any politician talking about "balancing the budget" without raising taxes on billionaires is lying to you and counting on your blind obedience.

As a candidate, Trump promised to end surprise medical billing.  

Just weeks into his second term, DOGE has slashed the federal office charged with implementing a bipartisan law cracking down on surprise medical bills.

Yet another Trump lie.
Trump vowed to end surprise medical bills. The team working on that just got slashed
Trump's first round of staff cuts to federal agencies eliminated dozens of positions at the Center for Consumer Information and Insurance Oversight, in charge of implementing the No Surprises Act.

I was diagnosed with HIV in 1998, when I was 30.
Many of my friends had died but I was told, with the new drugs available, I could expect to live another 20 years.
That was 27 years ago.

Honour those we lost.
Celebrate that we can now treat and prevent HIV.
Make HIV stigma history.

Pay No Attention to the Man Behind the Curtain

Flying Monkeys, Medicare and Medicaid, oh, my! Oprah’s snake-oil salesman will oversee elder care. Will prescription drugs be more Dr. Oz than Land of Oz? I wish I could click my heels three times and go home.

The House Ethics Committee has voted not to release the Matt Gaetz report containing credible allegations of sexual misconduct including rape of a minor and sex trafficking.

5 Republicans and 5 Democrats each voted, and the parties deadlocked. Guess which side voted to cover up the crimes?

Lots of people are about to be really mad that price of eggs goes up but they can’t get a 2nd job because they can’t afford childcare and when they do finally get the eggs they get E Coli because there’s no FDA but can’t go to the doctor because they got kicked off their health plan. #FAFO
