Yup, my mom was a boomer.

Defund-and-Abolish (Rayanne) @defund-and-abolish.bsky.social · 3h

Yet I am not a Boomer. Sad face.

Welp, you got me there. It was set in that timeframe. Bravo.

Wife: Fuck the Yankees!

Me: Hey maybe let’s don’t yell “Fuck the Yankees” with the windows open.

Wife, louder: FUCK THE YANKEES!

Guy walking by outside: FUCK THE YANKEES!

Um, no, M*A*S*H* was an American thing.

Yes, people are letting this go on too long. For one thing, the day of the Trump shutdown every single worker affected should have stayed home. Resist in ways that have an immediate effect.

What's your point, spanky?

Yup. You are preaching to the choir, sister. LTC coverage is a pipedream in Trump's America.

Correct. My Dad was on Medicaid so he could be in a long term care facility. Long term care is very expensive. Have you ever had a loved one in LTC on Medicaid? I have. It's fkn ugly.

We could have no co-pays, no deductibles, but for Big Pharma. We really could. For profit health care is immoral.

I'm on the slowest bus line in the city with the slowest buses in the nation to talk to New Yorkers about what it would mean for their lives if we made them fast and free.

So?

She turned out to be a disappointment.

Chuck Chuck. He's an embarrassment.

Yet the taxpayers somehow always end up on the hook.

The local LE are happy to assist.

Also, the "one price" is just unrealistic. We don't have anything close to that in Canada.

That's BS. I managed my mom's care under Medicare. The problem is the politicians who allow insurance companies to fill the gaps. There's no such thing as "full" coverage.

Billionaire President? Very Bad Idea.

Defund-and-Abolish (Rayanne) @defund-and-abolish.bsky.social · 4h

I LOVE this guy! Not for President but I love him.
