Yeah that seems like the biggest advantage. Bloodwork and X-rays re all covered under the HMO and not the PPO, but the maximum out of pocket is significantly higher (like $1k vs $4k) so I think maybe it’s better to just have a copay on labs?

This question is only for people who have to get bloodwork or medical imaging like, quarterly.

Chronically ill friends: do you generally go with an HMO or PPO for insurance? Do you have advice on which one works better for you?

I haven’t been, and we’re so close to West Virginia here!

I bought a Mothman costume for Halloween, and my husband does not know what Mothman is. I made him google it.

I absolutely zone out on anything that’s audio only. My brain just wanders off and then five minutes later I realize I haven’t been listening to big at all.

It sounds just terrible.

You could absolutely nail it on like the third try and just marry that dude, I guess, that seemed to work for me.

The last time I went on a first date I was not old enough to drink. I barely had a driver’s license. So when my grown up friends ask for advice about grown up dating I am absolutely zero help. Maybe take them to the Dairy Queen?

And that’s assuming they’ll even bother to look at them.

When someone says Chicago is a terrifying hellscape, I like to share a photo with them of my 7 year old walking around town with his giant stuffed dragon. He went on the subway! It was fine!

When I worked at the vet clinic and we were just feeling kind of beat down, one of the older techs would call dance break, and we’d have a dance break. Always helped.

I have contributed to spooky season. The outdoor lights are also orange, that’s all I got, folks.

They look ridiculous, and it’s absolutely ruining their propaganda videos.

I’m a literal card carrying socialist 😂 but I usually go with lefty.

Scaroline @carolinemoore.bsky.social · 1d

Right? I have more money now and I still don’t get the conservative worldview. Then again, I was raised by a liberal and a socialist so 🤷🏼‍♀️

(It was “Both Hands” and I played acoustic guitar)

Old punks don’t grow out of their politics, I guess. If anything I’ve moved farther left as I’ve gotten older.

A friend was surprised I’ve been to multiple protests, and I said “I sang an Ani DiFranco song on a public access show in high school, how are you surprised I go to protests?”

I asked mine if they could do 90s grunge, and he said “oh, hell yeah.”

I wanted to make my wedding photography gallery look more cohesive, which sounds like a good idea, but means that I’m going back through old galleries to re-edit them and entirely rebuilding my portfolio. www.carolinemoorephotography.com/wedding-gall...

One of the things I miss about everything being digital is that I used to just pick up one of my dad’s books that would be lying around the house. So I’m gonna get this largely for one of the kids to have the opportunity to pick up.

I have no idea what my best friend’s cell number is, but I do remember both mine and my husband’s landline numbers which are not in service anymore.

Scaroline @carolinemoore.bsky.social · 2d

My dad has that one!

I told him it’s why I’m kicking his ass at Mario Kart and he’s furious.
