A healthy population is a more productive population. If the American people are too sick to work, too bogged down by med bills, how will all the business owners Republicans want to woo meet their revenue goals? Not by doing the work themselves.

Universal healthcare is good for American business.

Did you know that “O Holy Night” has an anti-slavery second verse?

Every time I read it, it gets more and more disgusting. Anything to distract from the files, I suppose

If you’re like me, and you’re overwhelmed by all the pain you’re seeing right now, take a breath, sit with your empathy, and care for yourself as best you can. Then roll up your sleeves. We have things to do. Even small things.

Having your employees clock out early to prevent going over by .01 hours for a pay period isn’t micromanaging. It isn’t even nanomanaging. That is particle-managing.

We really are on the darkest timeline.

An order of crab rangoon would fix me right now.
