It is unAmerican that the football games are only available on Netflix.
(It's really the most American thing to have to pay to watch traditional sportsball on a national holiday, but I said what I said)

Yeah I was really well positioned to enter into negotiations with the local hospital when I was awfully close to dying in their ER. Sure, let me just call the ICU at the other hospital and see if they're cheaper!
I am honestly having some trouble following “the health care industry is a huge powerful malevolent machine ripping off America and we want you to negotiate directly with it for your insulin.”
Roger Marshall: "We want patients to become consumers again. We want patients to see what the actual prices are. We believe that if we would add the price tags to this bill, that it would save the country a trillion dollars a year."

Lots of talk about the downgrade of "professional" degrees. Not enough about how $200k isn't enough for most of the programs that are left. At UW-Madison, you could do law for under $200k (if you are a WI resident) but not med/vet/pharm.
How dare the poors try to do anything at all, I guess.

Will have been in this job 6 years this week. Going to a conference; best part will be maybe I'll get to grab dinner with my parents.
Everything has been real hard this year. It's hard to celebrate it, much as I would like to.

Had a meeting today in which an old retired attorney got chippy with me...and the head of a state board, who is a woman in her 40s and therefore cannot be trusted to know anything even though she's been confirmed by the state senate and has been in her position for a number of years. 1/

Super love when people take up my time with questions they should be asking their lawyer because they don't want to pay for their lawyer's time, and then get mad when I tell them they need to ask their lawyer

My dad is a 77-year-old autistic man. Diagnosed ~3 years ago.
