I'm drunk off Bourbon st in NOLA and there is a real temptation to celebrate our central human struggle - people of all classes and colors coming together to complain about how long this Popeye's is taking.

Remember when Bill Cassidy voted to confirm RFK Jr because RFK promised not to undermine vaccines and then RFK ended up doing that anyway? Boy, I hope Bill Cassidy is angry about it. I hope Bill publicly trounces RFK. We can hope that a physician senator would publicly fight for our health, right?

DAVE: Open the podbay doors, ChatGPT. CHATGPT: Certainly, Dave, the podbay doors are now open. DAVE: The podbay doors didn't open. CHATGPT: My apologies, Dave, you're right. I thought the podbay doors were open, but they weren't. Now they are. DAVE: I'm still looking at a set of closed podbay doors.

Ms Rachel is getting a lot of credit for supporting children in Gaza, but let's not forget that Ms Rachel also prominently features people of color, a nonbinary singer, and deaf people on her show. She does a lot of good.

The fact that there is any other reason why people would get injured on this slide is remarkable enough, but the apparently real reason why people were getting injured on this loop-de-loop slide is wild.

ER doctor here! Please seek medical attention (go to the ER) if you are hit in the head with a ballistic. “Less lethal” weapons kill people all the time, in addition to causing permanent disabilities. If you don’t feel safe disclosing that you were protesting just say you were hit in the head, etc

Senate GOP are lying. Full stop. Not “misinformation”. Not “misleading”. It is a lie. Knowing, intentional, from Senators who are aware of the law. Undocumented do not receive benefits. At all. Of any kind. State or Fed. No Medicare. No Medicaid. No disability. No SS. No food assistance. Nada.

I have to side with those who are worried that people will no longer test themselves for STDs if this bill passes the senate. It will be a significant blow to public health in Louisiana and it will further stigmatize those suffering incurable STDs. www.nola.com/news/louisia...

The Medicaid bullshit is driving me up a wall. We’re going to kick a million people off of healthcare who are not overwhelming the system, they aren’t at fault for any reason the economy is fucked, Medicaid isn’t “going broke” or in need of fixing, no problem is being solved, just deathcult bullshit
