So many of us are looking at this type of situation, to our own extremes.
I am on state insurance and have a complex form of epilepsy.
My three medications if not covered would cost more than my rent. Not to mention testing they have me do, visits.
No one survives alone.
Who is fighting for us?

The chain restaurant where we’re eating has played the Star Wars disco song, 2Pac’s “Can’t C Me,” and “It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas.” I’m expecting a Gregorian chant or sea shanty any moment now.

It's not great that a student can turn in a bad essay but vaguely point to the Bible and religious beliefs as an excuse for not following the actual assignment and terrible writing. That's not what college is supposed to be.
The professor did nothing wrong but she was pulled off the course anyways.

What's hilarious is that competent programmers, as well as people studying programming for the very first time, know that all code you write after about 4 hours is garbage. Totally useless, none of it worth salvaging.
Actual programmers hear "I coded for 36 hours" and hear "I gooned for 36 hours"

🇪🇺Court of Justice just ruled all 🇪🇺countries must recognise same-sex marriages granted in other member states.

Is this cheese grater conscious? Many users feel they're talking to a real person. Scientists say it's time to consider whether they're onto something.

It’s crazy to think about the crimes we’re going to learn about after this regime ends.
We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over.
We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.
