I'm wondering... Why do some people think that low income people, self employed people, people with pre-existing conditions ... shouldn't have access to healthcare?

I consider myself to be a great bullshit detector. AI - Parody... I see you. But I honestly can't tell if this crap I see from Truth Social and X is real.

Vermont requires you to verify my age? I highly doubt that. But here ya go ... whatever.

Savings interest down. Crypto investment down 75%. So much winning, I can't stand it!

I'm listening to this podcast about the cost of healthcare.. I'm thinking the Democrats should not have caved... people are going to die!

@sciencevs.bsky.social I just listened to the seed oils episode - as someone who suffered a heart attack and got two stents last year I wish there were more to it. Always looking for the magic ya know? Have you done an episode on Omega 3s or plant based diets?

@sciencevs.bsky.social I'd prefer permanent DST but that is because I live in Vermont. The main problem for me is really the shorter days. I hate Winter in the northern latitudes. I really need to just move to the equator and be done with this BS. :)

In retrospect, I'm thinking that we should have voted for the rent is too high guy.

I'm starting to see a pattern here - take away healthcare - take away education - take away food...

This was a huge problem during the 2023 campaign. Certainly more concerning than immigration. Did Democrats run on fixing this? I don't recall... usafacts.org/articles/who...

I'm thinking NY and New England should start their own international market at the Canadian border.

I'm hearing a lot about getting along with people with whom I disagree. I can of course do that. But what is the point? I don't want people to think that what they've done is okay.

Hey, @sciencevs.bsky.social Love the podcast. I just listened to the one on fertility rate though and thought you missed something pretty obvious. If the problem is that there are not enough young people to support old people when why not just change the funding formula? Tax the rich maybe?

Wow! So many people protesting! Can't we just fire all Republicans and start over?

Nobody likes this shit... then why are there still Republicans/conservatives? Can we please move on now?

Ain't that true? 🤦🏽‍♀️🤷🏾

Ya know what Texas? You should just prove to the world that you are not a bunch of racist assholes and vote all Republicans out of your government entirely. Seriously, just vote for good policy and you won't have any Republicans in your government or be sending any to DC.

Tariffs are a sales tax on consumers. Why is that so hard for some people to understand?

We really need to flip the script on this shit!

Urban, Thirlby and Headey were excellent in this. Hope they find a way to bring them all back. www.msn.com/en-us/movies...

Okay, I'm a little afraid of these people. Let me just say this - there are a million reasons and any one of them should have been enough.

What's up with this Institute movie I just watched? It sounded like High School drama club students reading from a script for the first time.

Okay, I agree. ...but... Harris was a much better choice than Trump. Voting for Harris to ensure Trump's loss would have been a better choice than sitting it out. www.yahoo.com/news/democra...

This is all really starting to piss me off. The way you improve trade, manufacturing, jobs.. is not by being a bully. It is by investing directly into infrastructure and manufacturing. You know, like Biden was doing. Just lowering the cost of electricity nationwide would be huge!

Anyone else notice a mashup of Aliens and Return of the Jedi in the new Jurassic Park movie? Or am I hallucinating?

Is there anything good in the budget bill? Anything?

I'm really sad about the end of EV incentives. It is going to force me back to an ICE vehicle. I really loved not going to a gas station for ten years. Oh well, maybe States can make up for it.

holy shit - why to they let him speak?

I've had enough. Time to stop wondering how TF we got here and start doing something about it. This is not okay. Sexism, racism, fascism, bigotry, classism... these things are not okay. These things are not America. We are better. We are progressive. We are human. We will do better!

I don't remember the first season of Sandman being this boring.

I don't have much energy left for this bullshit. I can't ... I just can't. How are the humans in my government so inhuman?

Ya know... if TV series are going to be only 8 or 10 episodes, they should come out all at once so I can watch them like movies.

The answer is never tax breaks for the rich and less health care for everyone else.

I honestly don't understand how Republicans keep convincing their voters that the shitty things they propose are reasonable.

That poll can't be right. Who would vote for Trump? And who would admit it?

I'm sad... the days get shorter from now on.

This is bullshit!

OMG that was terrible! Played like a 1970s Doctor Who episode without the intentional campiness. Bloody awful! #CaptainAmerica:BraveNewWorld

Was trying to find something to watch... failed. But I saw the live action Cowboy Bebop while I was searching. I really enjoyed watching season 1. I wish it hadn't gotten cancelled. It seems like everything I like gets cancelled.

I don't know if these things do any good but go sign it anyway. I found the show entertaining unlike the Rings of Power show that they kept. WTF? savewot.com/take-action/...

I'll never understand how atypical fear marketing was more powerful than the threat of a fascist dictator. But, I agree with Musk, Trump would have lost without him.

Holy fuck! WHY? "Joss, 59, was killed outside his burned-down home in San Antonio on Sunday after an alleged campaign of homophobic harassment against him and his new husband Tristan Kern de Gonzales."

I want a do over. I don't care at all about Abby and Seattle. Let's just go back to the part where the infected get her and continue the story from there.

Remember when that Joe Dirt lookin' dude said that he had 12 bolt posi? Why did the bolts matter?

Honest question... Why do Republicans think there should be a work requirement for any kind of assistance?

A dream sequence and more flashbacks? Ugh. #TheLastofUs

I have to go to the DMV tomorrow for a new photo. My old photo is too old. I'm too old. Happy Birthday! Ugh! I hate driving.

I was enjoying Wheel of Time enough to not want it cancelled. WTF Amazon? That total crap show Rings of Power gets another season? Bizarro world!

Murder Drones sucks. Murderbot, on the other hand, looks good. We'll see, there are only two episodes.
