take the healthcare, definitely

mbarany.com•20 days ago

the coming years are going to be hard enough without the threat of lurking/unprevented/untreated conditions making it harder

I agree with this. +1 to healthcare.

Also, if we get enough capital, a bunch of displaced academics can buy a shuttered small college and start fresh...

Is the capital in the room with us right now? Can you see it?

another +1 altho mixed about whether health/care should be one word or two, Scrabble word lists have differed on this point in the past

Another +1. To me, even things you can't treat are easier to deal with if you know wtf you're dealing with.

I am a wallower. If I know something is wrong & I can't deal with it, I am fairly useless. But if I can convince myself that everything is basically ok, I can work. I'm not sure if it's easier for me to deal with stuff I know about once the health insurance goes away...

(This is not my best personality trait, I realize. But I am old & have been this way my whole life... not likely to change now that things are SO MUCH WORSE.)

I'm so sorry that what's possible includes such devastating options.
