God I hope this one pans out. I've been jaded about the whole "5 years til the cure" thing for a long time, but the fact that they've gotten around the immune system shows genuine promise. Easily the flashiest breakthrough of the decade.

What's nuts is he had never played in a serious irl tournament before coming in and just sweeping the WSOP main event.

Imagine your buddy jeff showed up to the US open and won the thing.

So, it's just statistical coincidence that the number of denials tripled under his tenure?

It's also statistical coincidence that they have a much higher rate of denial than other insurance companies?

It sounds like you've never had to argue on the phone for 9 hours to get your insulin approved.

Sometimes the right endo can make all the difference.

Usually, your insurance companies' drug formulary will specify a preferred brand. It'll also list required conditions for usage (i.e. doctor must say it'll help, and you'll actually use it)
Insurance sucks. Sorry you're dealing with this.

What I've learned from having to replace my broken transmitter is that your endo can usually yell at them better than you can. Make sure your pump is their "preferred" one and if it isn't your doc might need to give them a medical necessity form.

This might help, and I hope it does.

Yeah I'm trying my best to separate what I consider a legitimate critique of someone who I'm sure has good intentions from the idiots who are using this as an excuse to beat down on a woman. It sucks that this is a line I need to draw but that's where we're at.

My guess is he's got a hush puppy on it. Basically a device that keeps the slide locked until manually cycled. It lowers the noise by causing everything to go through the baffles in the suppressor.

He's also using it to grab brass on its way out rather than reach down to grab it off the ground.

I still don't know what happened with this fucking squirrel and I refuse to learn about it.

I think TLJ suffered from having to work off of a different directors story and then going back to the same director after

It's a competently made movie, but just too spread out for it's own good.

Also the throne room fight is jank as hell, but there was definite potential

Sadly coupons have been replaced by apps that are designed to not be as good as coupons

can't say I have! T1 diabetic though so that limits my soda options. I had the Zero version of the oreo coke.

I got the Oreo Coca Cola. It tastes like coca cola with the aftertaste of a s'mores pop tart.

Truly a weird experience
