It is October 2028. The Seattle Mariners and Detroit Tigers are still playing the divisional round playoff game that began in 2025. The rest of the MLB decided to continue on without them and start a whole new league.

It's open enrollment time so here's a convenient peg to hang a little tutorial about how to choose your health insurance.

Most of the advice you get is bad. Most of your instincts are bad. I however used to work for a health insurance company and I do arithmetic for a living so I can help.

Personally I think it's great that my company's HR sends out an official looking tool where they even ask you to pre-populate your healthcare providers and instead of being the actual insurance enrollment process it's just some bullshit checklist to try and convince me I actually don't want a PPO

meeting new people socially as a partner in a both-trans couple often involves us spending the first hours of interaction with someone repeatedly yet subtly showing them we're not (1) unbearably cringe or (2) looking for a polycule

both trump and biden are teetotalers who claim to have never drank alcohol. no wonder this country's going to shit: three terms in a row of presidents who have never once had fun
