Well, an acquaintance who relies on the ACA marketplace for insurance just received a notice explaining that their fee for coverage will be rising. Right now they pay $180 a month. The new price?

$2733.15 a month.

I’ve been watching it, and it does what all good works about fascists should do: shows them to be pathetic, insecure pieces of shit underneath it all.

Helluva moment for MUBI to release an eight-part Joe Wright miniseries about the rise of Mussolini, but it's here, and it's as stylish as it is occasionally overwhelming.

My review of MUSSOLINI: SON OF THE CENTURY for @ebertvoices.bsky.social:

Mussolini: Son of the Century movie review (2025) | Roger Ebert

It's all very presentational and Brechtian, and the nonstop pace leaves you breathless.

I believe people who misuse Tolkien to advance fascism should have a brief but life-changing encounter with World War II–era Christopher Lee

the milk thing? he's half dutch. that's all i've got. they're culturally, and maybe genetically, obsessed with dairy
i doubt i have milk more than twice a year, and it's always to dip oreos in

i love each cat's random food obsessions. the current foster cat is obsessed with milk, and my husband drinks milk at least twice a day

Happy National Cat Day from me and Jasper. He hasn't gotten any inquiries, and he's the bestest boy. If you're in SE Michigan and looking for a sweet young only cat, this is your boy

I will never get over how this sweet boy was described as spicy by the shelter. He's been the sweetest baby since the day he came home with me.
Fostering is amazing, bc you can help animals go from unhappy in the shelter to thriving and ready for adoption

I miss my less sensitive skin in my 30s. I just restarted azelaic acid and it irritates my skin now. In my 30s, I was able to start using it twice a day with no problems, and now it feels worse than trying to start using tretinoin ine a daily basis right off the bat

I wish I could do more than repost, but we have the specter of my husband being asked to work without pay any day now until the shutdown ends

Well this is fun. My brakes need replacing and my battery is corroded. Total cost is going to be $942 which I can cover but it will make things very tight for paying rent on the 1st. I need help covering about $300 to make this easier. V3nmo: @ dexanderson

Also, I absolutely love my friends' kids and my niblings. Being around happy kids is a source of joy, regardless of the fact that I won't be having any

I was not prepared for this absolutely unhinged take, and I chose not to have kids long before I learned dangerous it would be for my body in particular.
It baffles me that people can't recognize that children are, in fact, people and a part of our society as a whole
