Being a fucking idiot has consequences. Unfortunately, they’re for everybody.

These assholes. idahocapitalsun.com/briefs/idaho...

The irony here is that the same can be said of e.g., government. Think about why you do or did vote for a straight party ticket or refused to even ponder the idea of a so-called "third/minor" party candidate....

Ok I fully 100% support opportunity for college athletes to get paid, but can we just not open the transfer portal until after bowls? It's like if the NFL started free agency the week the playoffs start, and I don't understand how nobody stopped and said "wait, you guys" πŸ˜…

I’m assuming Matt Gaetz disclosed his illegal drug use on his application to purchase firearms, right? If not, hear the Republicans think that’s a serious crime that deserves serious consequences.

Ugh I wish this didn't hit so squarely πŸ˜…

Congratulations to Mike Johnson for trying to pressure the House Ethics Committee into burying a report that found the then-nominee for attorney general had engaged in sexual activity with a minor. Party of Family Values, am I right?

Haven't read the whole thing but had to go look at the dissent.. notably, did not dispute any findings, just hand wringing about what a dangerous precedent this sets. I'm sorry, if release of final report with detailed findings of wrongdoing is problematic, you prob should not be in Congress πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

I must begrudgingly offer kudos to whomever came up with that "Nothing is everythiiiiing" jingle for skyrizi or whatever that plaque psoriasis medicine is. I may kinda loathe you when I catch myself whistling it, but I gotta respect your game

DOGE is literally just this, down to the ridiculous acronym, but with the two most unlikable douchebags in America instead of an awesome kid and even more awesome tiger.

Privileged people generally experience the system as biased against and as singling them out for abuse, because they cannot imagine that’s just how the system treats people.

An actuarial exercise... If your business model is based on denying needed medical care, you're taking a risk. TBH life insurance premiums for health insurance execs should be through the roof. Disclaimer: numbers except Customers and Denied claims are entirely made up as my guesses. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Good. We need to return insurance companies to providing insurance, not dictating care or lack thereof. That also means WE need to stop relying on "insurance" for routine medical care.
