Anyone know of a health insurance premium pantry in the US? The reality is you either have the money each month or you’re shut out. And like your streaming subscription, when you come back, that premium will be much higher

With so much in flux, politically, economically, changes to the workplace from AI, how does one advise a young person on careers worth training for? I'm told even accounting may not be worth the $150k cost of college.

Grateful to my Irish ancestors for having the courage to immigrate. Thinking of them on St. Patrick's day.

As someone who just watched an elderly family member call #socialsecurity after losing her spouse to figure out what happens next, relieved decision to shut down telephone access to SS was reversed. STOP the privatization of our earned benefits.

Meanwhile in WI, we need a bill for THIS?
"SB 14 requires health care providers to obtain a patient’s consent when they teach medical students how to do pelvic exams by having them practice on women under anesthesia." Apparently unconscious women have been used to train students without being aware

JUST IN: Influenza virus may survive pasteurization in milk and food.

Non-infectious flu virions may preserve their infectious potential after pasteurization at 75°C, reactivating when exposed to trypsin.

Current pasteurization standards may not completely neutralize influenza viruses in food.
