It would have been funny (not really) if when Trump said "You're still talking about this guy?" he had said "You're still talking about Welcome Back Cotter? That show's been off the air for 50 years."

Over the next few weeks, as the White House *struggles* to release any Epstein relevant materials - please remember that Trump defense for having classified docs in a bathroom was that he could declassify things with his mind.

Could you imagine if Dems advocated for sending SWAT to tackle and arrest and disappear F250s owners who park in handicap spots without a placard?

Wasn't it just like 5 years ago this guy was doing TED talk style lectures about how AI is bad, asking developers to use an abundance of caution, and warning about some had actor using it for nefarious purposes?

My dad bought a reel-to-reel at his work's surplus equipment sale one year. And a bunch of reels that probably at one time had top secret government data on them. I'd tape it and then the next day I'd edit the commercials out and transfer them to cassette tape. I wonder where those tapes ended up.

After he finds out that Sasha Obama got away with the Death Star plans.

It was foretold in the ancient VHS.

Oprah's book club lead directly to the early success of Amazon. Amazon gave a discount on Oprah's chosen books. Oprah told her viewers to buy the books from Amazon. She had Bezos on and showed video of him driving his Honda to work like a normal person. Another winner Oprah unleashed on us all.

I remember Don Jr. going on Fox News saying "It must be nice to be able to go around the world, making money off your dad's name, with no accomplishments of your own -- like Hunter Biden!"

I follow the lid rule.

If it came with a lid, I use a straw.

If there's no lid, I use no straw.

It has nothing to do with manliness, or honestly even plastic waste. I just like to take bigger gulps than a straw can accommodate.

If we aren't going to have health exams as part of our election process, then every elected member needs to have a Vice, who votes in their absence.

It would also be a great way for members of the younger generations to build a resume.

Louisville now has a $5.22 cover charge for people visiting from southern Indiana. (bridge tolls)

We had some aphids on a fruit tree last year. I posted pics on reddit looking for advice. Someone pointed out that in the pic there were some black bugs with orange spots. They said "Those are ladybug larvae - help is already on the way". It was like Wild Kingdom in our own backyard. Go Ladybugs!

It blows my mind that the nice British guy on Youtube lives down the road in Kentucky.

Hope you and your cat are soon reunited.

And now some places are even trying to outlaw wearing masks in public. So the Government paid $1million to give these people a new chance at life, but they won't pay for the meds, and now we can't even take basic precautions to protect ourselves or this giant investment of government money.

And then even when COVID hit and immuno-compromised people started dying at rates much higher than healthy people, even once Democrats were in power, nobody did anything to help immuno-suppressed/compromised people.

In my experience with kidney failure, I met a lot of people whose organ failed and they ended up back on dialysis because they couldn't get their meds or because they couldn't get some related care they needed. Its wasteful. And long term dialysis can be even more expensive than a transplant.
April 9, 2025 at 11:46 AM
So the government pays for pre-transplant treatments and workups, and then (even when I had mine in 2000) a $1million surgery/hospital stay. And then instead of like $1000 per month to maintain the organ, they're like "see ya! good luck".

I am a kidney transplant patient of 25 years. Transplant patients qualify for Medicare and SSD for 3 years after their transplant and then they're considered "cured" and are thrown to the wolves in the private insurance market.

Dark Quiet Death carries the whole first season, IMO. It's like the rest of the seasons is mid, but DQD is so good, it lifts up the whole season. Season 2 is similar. I never got around to watching Season 3. And I feel like DQD as an episode stands on its own.

That's whole conspiracy theory is based on "How could brown people have done *this* before white people? They must have had help from *someone*."

So it tracks that they're Republican.

A component of #7:

A lot of states don't even called it Medicaid. People don't sign up at a government office. They call it things like "Passport Health by Molina" and you sign up through the ACA website and it looks like a regular for-profit plan.

A lot of people don't know they have Medicaid.
