Hear me out: we bring back the public option and then we only subsidize the public option and leave the private insurance companies to make it work in an actual “marketplace”. If people end up choosing the public option after seeing what the “market” is actually like then baby that’s just capitalism

My health insurance premiums will more than double in January. I pay a little less than $500/month for my current silver plan.
I just reapplied and my new premium will be $1062/month.
And don’t forget: I still have a co-pay for every visit and pay for prescriptions.

To put a finer point on this whole thing: "Two people with direct knowledge of the operation" — presumably uniformed military leaders — are accusing the U.S. Secretary of Defense of personally ordering specific war crimes. That's a historic accusation.

Hold UP you all had Wendy’s doing fucking Chicken Cordon Bleu sandwiches? And you didn’t force them to keep it?! For shame.
Wendy's Chicken Cordon Bleu (1991, 1992, 1995): A crispy chicken filet topped with ham, swiss cheese, mayo, and Grey Poupon dijon mustard, served on a toasted kaiser roll. Due to consumer demand, it was brought back the next year for a limited run, and then again in 1995.

“We may not revolt as one, but we are revolted as one, e pluribus nauseam”
Highly recommend @sarahkendzior.bsky.social’s “They Knew: How a Culture of Conspiracy Keeps America Complacent”. She wrote it in 2022.
Reading Sarah’s work has prepared me for this moment, and I credit her with making me painfully in touch with reality.
Surprised her books haven’t been banned, tbh.

Universities across the world from the US to the UK to Australia and Canada, are now "led" by an interchangeable Global Admin class who swap places every couple of years. Their blandness, lack of local roots and commitments, and general third-tier-CEO vibes are their main feature, not a bug. 2/4
