Somehow, I never quite believed BlueSky was going to be a "safe" space. I'm sad that your experience is what confirms it. Glad you're back.

(Either way, it feels a lot less human-focused, and a lot more profit-focused. I've been lucky to have great health insurance for ten years and not pay too much for it. It was nice while it lasted.)

That makes sense.

We have multiple office locations. Anything's possible but I would think that's *probably* not the reason.

My employer premiums are doubling for 2026. That's significant cuz for the past ten years, it's gone up less than $10 per month each year. If the current health insurance fight had nothing to do with that, I wonder if premiums were set to increase anyway? (Or it could have been a mgmt decision.)

Question Two: If the looming expiration of the ACA subsidies IS affecting health care premiums on the exchange, would this also affect health care premiums for employer health insurance plans? (2 of 2)

Charlie Kirk was a human being and I condemn his murder. Period.

However, for the record: nobody deserves to be murdered for saying what they believe in public. If we want to have a free society, we *must* learn again how to disagree with each other in public while at the same time treating each other with humanity and respect.

It facilitates knee jerk reactions and the deepening of the divide between different groups, highlighting their differences rather than their shared humanity.

Social media has ruined something in us.

Please stop the politicizing this is sickening. I wish some of you could hear yourselves. Get offline or something. I'm going to. Jesus.

Nobody should be shot in the head at home.

Nobody should be shot in the head for attending school.
