It is far too easy to get lost in the minutia of the world you’re crafting and never get around to actually #writing stories. @docseuss.bsky.social has good advice on how to keep this from happening.
‘lore’ is a trap and will kill your story if you let it. so what can we do about it?
This is not an essay about lore. I mean, it is, sure. We discuss lore, what it is, how to best use it, and how it can trap you into writing…

ER doc here! This is a lie. Wait times are up because the American healthcare system is an unsustainable business model and a for-profit national healthcare system just doesn’t work. These problems will continue to get worse until we change that system. It literally has nothing to do with immigrants

Vance: "If you're an American citizen & you've been to the hospital in the last few years, you've probably noticed wait times are especially large & very often somebody who's there in the ER is an illegal alien. Why do those people get healthcare benefits at hospitals paid for by American citizens?"

Trump and Republicans made devastating cuts to Medicaid and plan to let vital ACA subsidies expire.

Millions on Medicaid will lose coverage. Millions on ACA plans could see premiums rise by as much as 75%.

Every lie they tell about a shutdown is meant to cover this up.
