Ok fine.

I went on a winter hike with some old friends back in 2018. It was a great day.

I can’t decide if it’s a good thing or a bad thing that—since I get all my news from pretty staid sources like Reuters and Al Jazeera—I have no idea what this Trump/Clinton bit is you all are joking about.

When people ask me what turned me into a socialist I tell them the stories about my first-born being ambulanced off to a specialty NICU when she was 18 hours old.
Among other things, my employer messed up the paperwork, so my daughter was “uninsured” in the eyes of the hospital billing office. 🧵

We had a medical advocate. When I asked her what we would have done without help, she said “most people die.” It’s a nightmare traversing the medical system, and my husband was sick as fuck. They kept telling him to live - how?! When you get home from chemo and there’s a 90k bill in your box?’

It’s so depressing to look at where the #NYR were 2-3 years ago—with a perennial Vezina candidate, solid veterans and a slew of young talent ready to break out—and then read this 100% correct take.
