  • How is it only 62%?! Who actually looks at their medical bill and thinks, "Yep, this is accurate and absolutely worth every penny"? I have health insurance, and I still avoid going to the doctor unless I’m practically dying because I simply can’t afford it.

    And yet, I’m stuck paying nearly $10k a year for insurance—just in case something catastrophic happens—only to still face massive copays, out-of-pocket costs, and coverage denials. It’s completely counterintuitive.

    The system is broken.

    Screw the insurance industry.
    Screw the state of medical care in the U.S.

    Healthcare shouldn’t be a privilege—it’s a human right. Normalize that.

  • So here’s my take: I never want to play a game with other people unless we’re sitting on the same couch. Because of that, I have no need for any of my systems to be permanently connected to the internet. The requirement for always-online systems is just ridiculous. The full game should be on the disk, and the only time I should need an internet connection is to download DLC or if the dev team releases a patch that addresses major issues or improves the gameplay experience.

  • He’s the second biggest piece of shit on earth….Trump is number 1 for those keeping score. He’s a silver spoon fuckhead that has zero touch with reality. Money can buy anything apparently in this fucked up reality and sadly my children and my children’s children will think he did great things…but, but, but they say history is written by the victors. So, I’m hoping a cutely rhymed limerick is written above his grave about him being the ultimate piece of shit

  • You nailed it on the head—if X owns all X accounts, then X should absolutely be held liable and named as codefendants in all past and future litigation where content posted on X is used in the suit. By asserting ownership over the accounts, X is effectively taking on a level of responsibility for the platform's use and misuse, akin to how a publisher is held liable for the content it distributes.

    This raises serious implications for legal accountability. If X claims ownership, they are asserting control, and with control comes liability. They can't just cherry-pick the benefits of owning the accounts (like monetization, data, and influence) without accepting the risks, including being dragged into lawsuits where harmful, defamatory, or illegal content originates from their platform.

    It would also set a precedent for greater accountability in tech. Platforms often hide behind Section 230 protections to dodge responsibility, but if they step forward and say, 'We own the content or accounts,' then they lose the shield of neutrality and should face the consequences accordingly. It’s a slippery slope that X might regret going down if this theory gains traction in courtrooms.

  • Trump and his cronies want to privatize the world. That’s the end goal. Gut all government agencies and sell them off to Elon or some private equity firm. If you want to live in the future they’re building it’s gonna be pay to play. You want healthcare, pay for it. You want education, pay for it. You want oxygen, pay for it!

    ….and 76 million people voted for it. 76 million people have fucked over 260 million people all cause they drank the orange kool-aid.

  • If you shop online you 99.9999989% have indirectly supported Shopify somewhere and many companies use Quicken so, again, non-intentional support. My point being, no matter how hard we try We The People will always be force fed corporate choices….until we finally dismantle capitalism

  • They might have a fully open staff to employee after Trump finishes naming his secretary picks. After all, the only thing more qualifying for a senior government position than hosting a TV show on Fox News is hosting one on NBC

  • They’re exactly the same. Biden didn’t act to maintain the status quo; same deal with Garland. You don’t play nice with shitty people, like Trump. You need to be more ruthless. The world watched Jan. 6th happened and the people put in power did nothing to nip it in the bud. Now, we’ve got a second Trump term and it’s all because of inaction because people were scared to ruffle feathers. Those mf’ers deserved to be Randy Johnson’ed

  • Push that shit as quick as possible….so Biden can veto it and require more votes for it to pass. Any Republican move at this point and Biden has one response, VETOOOOO!

    Unless it serves the greater good I hope he kills everything they put in front of him, the same way they continue to kill basic human rights

  • PSA, in 2021 Kansas received about $7.1 Billion in aid from the federal government, accounting for about 16.8% of its annual revenue. Cutting taxes at home with your hand out for federal funds is kinda BS.
