I hedged, but still. Time to milkshake duck: 4 days.
I keep hearing comparisons between him and Fetterman and like yeah, maybe, fool me once etc, but there is a huge difference between "here's who I was; here's who I am. I acknowledge that they are different" and Fetterman's continuing cha-cha slide into brainrot.

We'll see.
more literally i’d say an am fm radio antenna
we're watching star trek in order by air date and just got to the point where it matters: TNG S6 / DS9 S1 (aka 1993).

The next few seasons are going to be fun, but the following 5 seasons of alternating dominion war and neelix shenanigans is gonna be surreal.
just a wee bit on the nose. just a smidge.
Scoop: Trump has started demolishing the White House's East Wing facade to build his ballroom. The president had claimed construction of the $250 million building wouldn’t ‘interfere’ with the existing White House structure. /W @ddiamond.bsky.social wapo.st/4hqBNiU

lol I grew up a few towns over from Newark (so also Taylor Ham, specifically, country) but I spent enough time in the bound brook etc area to know the kids used to call Watchung Hills Regional (WHRHS) The Whore House.
the king of the egg and cheeses. Are you in pork roll territory, or do you have a nearby homesick jersey deli grill dude.

Hundreds turned out for the No Kings rally in Lowell. Speakers, music, and then a march downtown. A car full of young men drove by the rally multiple times to yell, “F&@% liberals,” among other things. Peaceful beyond that. Story from the events there and in Chelmsford later at lowellsun.com.
Lowell City Councilor Vesna Nuon delivered an awesome (paraphrasing) "as someone from Cambodia, this shit is looking super familiar right now, so wise up" speech.
seems like 800+ people in downtown Lowell rn for the #nokings rally.

I saw a tragically AI-generated version of this poster, so I have recreated a 100% human-made version for all your protest sign needs.
i have the opposite problem up here: my “were fucked, let’s dance” jersey sarcasm gets read for actual hostility, but i’m laughing with you about our obvious and predictable shared downfall, not at you about yours.

Also, fun fact: This is the bill they’re using the budget debate to gut. Soon you WON’T be able to go to the ER uninsured without payment up front.
Oh, and let's not forget about doctors and hospitals. If you don't have insurance, your only option is the ER.

The Emergency Treatment And Active Labor Act passed by Reagan in 86 requires ERs stabilize you.

It doesn't pay for them, however. That's still on you.

Premiums have since skyrocketed. In some states, we’re talking quadruple or more prices for premiums with absurd deductibles.

It fails to address the single most important driver of cost: Healthcare must not be profit-driven. With profit motive, there’s no cure. Just a Band Aid on a knife wound.

While this is 100% true, I think it’s remiss to not acknowledge the tens of millions who had coverage before the ACA, but then couldn’t afford the premiums and deductibles for their new ACA plans.

My premium went from $300 to $1,200. My deductible went from $0 to $5,000. I could not afford care.
Before the ACA (Obamacare) people legit died or lost their homes due to illness they could not afford to treat

I know that sounds dramatic but it absolutely happened
i dislike how that one is slightly out of focus but i’ll take it for the hiding sun.

this one’s cleaner.
