I think it’s also true that loneliness among women has historically been treated as an individual problem, while loneliness among men is treated as a societal problem. That, in turn, comes from an assumption that women are supposed to earn the company of others while men are entitled to it.
men’s loneliness gets “more airtime”?

baby I have lived the past three decades of my life witnessing corporate media elevate men’s loneliness into a full-blown balls-to-the-wall CRISIS once every 4-5 years

“more airtime” is hilarious

FINALLY GOT IT!

I've taken well over 100,000 pelican pictures, maybe 200,000.

Over 20,000 the past month alone.

Today, I snagged "The One That Got Away"

In my infinite optimism, I give you, a very rare:

Fish success story.

This is the type of thread that only gets written if you're unaware that the VA healthcare system already exists. Or that it provides healthcare for millions of Americans. Or that it consistently generates higher patient satisfaction numbers and better clinical outcomes than the private sector.
For all Universal HC/Single Payer/M4A advocates.

What do the biggest, expensive hospital chains do. Do they opt out and only serve the rich ?

Who in the USA gov runs the program?

R U ok with having to see a primary care doc before you can see a specialist ?

Sam Altman: hey I made a machine that stole literally all your stuff in order to make CSAM of your child actors, sometimes it encourages people to kill themselves

Disney: Holy shit here's a billion dollars

Altman: the machine loses more than that each week but thank you. Soon it will become god.

Like, I would fucking love a commercial about a mom wrapping all the presents and doing the milk and cookies and food and she’s overwhelmed and her kids and husband bring her McDs and a book and a blanket let her relax while they finish trimming the tree.

Olivia Nuzzi and Ryan Lizza are both such awful writers that I cannot even enjoy this modern literary scandal, a fucking shame! Halfwits throwing shots at each other across the Algonquin kids table, I’m sick of it!
